Girls in parking lots
After a highly successful drunken day at work, I managed to find myself in the parking lot of a questionable area in Atlanta known to repel anyone with a job or self-motivation. Lo and behold, the Indigo Girls found themselves in the same parking lot! What a coincidence! Or was it...?
I almost didn't recognize them through my altered state since they were dressed rather decently. But then I spotted the mullet. They spit out their chaw, opened their guitar cases and started playing some songs about who-knows-what. All I remember is that some enterprising people threw in a few quarters and dollar bills to get them to stop.
After a few songs, the shut-up-I'm-trying-to-slack-and-skateboard crowd achieved their goal and the Girls packed up and went to buy some soy lattes in the nearby coffeeshop. I followed them with their new CD (Despite Our Differences) that had automagically appeared in my hand.
I got both of them to sign the CD by agreeing to listen to an "educational" talk about the merits of baking "natural" granola using "solar energy" panels. Then I went home and found this article in the local paper to make sure I wasn't making up stories again:
