Chick Happy Hour Surprises and other stuff

Angela and I have quite a bit of free time coming up over the holiday weekend and we're going to use part of the time to do more for hurricane evacuees. We've donated money, but I'm feeling the overwhelming urge to do something physical too. It's such a monstrous task it's hard to know where to start, but I'm sure the evacuees would appreciate it if we would just jump in and start somewhere. Go find a family and take them to dinner. Something. If there are 25,000 evacuees in Dallas it shouldn't be hard to find a handful to help out.

Chick Happy Hour last night was great fun. We saw a bunch of friends we hadn't seen for a long time and we met a lot of great new people. It was a total shock to see a friend's ex-boyfriend there. This girl friend of ours dated him for several months a couple of years ago and she hasn't talked to him since she broke up with him, but he was at this primarily gay function last night with a guy. Hmm. We called to let her know we had spotted him, but she didn't think it was nearly as interesting as we did.

I also ran into a guy from one of our sister stations. Another shocker. He's one of those people you encounter on a daily basis and assume he's straight, but then you see him around gay peeps and then his whole existence starts to make a lot more sense. Anyway, our toaster ovens should be in the mail shortly. Heck, we should be up to a Jenn-Air oven by now.

Angela is off work today and she's playing golf right now. She must have her cell phone in her pocket because she keeps accidentally direct-connecting me every time she swings. This weekend going out for beer and wings, grilling out on the patio a couple of times, and going to a Frisco Roughriders game. First priority though, doing something selfless for hurricane evacuees. We're too blessed to not let some of that spill over.

Have a good weekend!
