more "supper happy fun time"

I am SO regretting not taking my camera out with me last night.
  • First of all, the kid is way with the cute.
  • And brother Mac brought his new work vehicle which has to be seen to be believed. He's wrapped one of those boxy monstrosities to look like an ambulance...because it is the van/car/truck used by his publication Medical News Inc.
  • The kid's stroller has a cup holder. For the baby.
I enjoyed dinner with the entire family, which is a lot these days. And dining at the Club was wonderful— I got to bump into old Nashville friends and the new head chef at the Club is amazing.

After dinner, I met up with Regular Blog Celebrity and Dear Heart Keith, the lovely and talented EJ, and the Saucy Sinclair at Tribe and we had a blast of a night. Again, wishing for the camera. Sinclair also brought "Cool Amy" who was a joy to meet, and is apparently a fan of the blog.

Shout outs all around.

I also met Keith's new beau, to whom I was slow to warm but left being a fan. Keith is the soul of human kindness and I get a bit protective. He has a history of men who done him wrong, and I tend to want to rise up and bitch slap anyone who does not honor the Keith.

I spent most of the night with Keith's friend Michael. They met via MySpace a while back and have become good friends. I thought Michael was a great guy— at once charming and disarming. I am glad I demonstrated genuine interest in him as a person before I learned that he is also the lead singer/visionary behind one of my favorite bands, Pinmonkey. I was concerned that afterwards I would come across as a sycophantic fan.

I have been playing tracks on my iPod all day.

It was cool that EJ was there too as I had introduced her to their music years back when I was back for the Swan Ball. And she then played their CD for her buddy (and friend of mine too) Leslie Roberts, who turned out to be their business/label something-or-other over at Sony. Small world indeed.

And I must say he looks much better with shorter hair. His profile pics are a bit outdated.

So on the off chance he's visiting this space, a big shout out to Michael. You're awesome.
