We have tickets for two shows at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo this week. Monday is Lyle Lovett, and Wednesday is Bob Dylan. (What, you thought it's only country/western music at the HLSR?) Friday I'm meeting some friends at a local pub to see the Asylum Street Spankers, who are briefly touring with original Spanker and badass bluesman Guy Forsyth. Saturday we've been invited to a champagne-tasting party. Oh, and Tuesday's my 36th birthday.

So this means I may be light on the postings this week. Things should be back to normal by week's end.
