A Night Out in Austin (Sort of)
Feb 9th, 2008 by Nola
We are in Austin for a business trip for my husband. I intended to take in the sights and have a mini-vacation. But I am feeling sickly and having an eight-month old afoot has made those visions dissipate. But the inside of my hotel room is top-notch!
Although I did have dinner with Captain Sarcastic’s peeps last night. And included in that number was one celebrity among certain circles (circles including CS’s peeps). And guess whose table this celebrity sat at? Yup, mine. This celebrity is totally cool and hip and, oh, yeah, HOT! And in the course of the evening, I mentioned that I was a tax attorney. You know, trying to impress him with my smarts. Except that late into the dinner, he inquired about my work as a taxidermist. Oh. My. God.
I mean, I know I am talking about flirting. With my husband sitting right next to me. But we have an open marriage. Did I ever mention this to you before? Well, it’s not that open. But it’s open enough to allow for pretend boyfriends (and girlfriends and crushes).
Anywho, realizing that even my pretend flirting was bombing, I can still say that I had quite an enjoyable evening. I even learned who Flaco Jiménez is. This morning I awoke to a sore throat. It seems I am being punished for my impure thoughts.
Instant karma is a bitch.
The Flaco? Texas Tornadoes and all? Incredible.
Taxidermist?!?!….bahaha….can’t. stop. laughing.
Taxidermist? That’s hot and smart, lol!!
Happy Blog Hopping,
Anastasia Beaverhousin!
LMAO…Didn’t you know Taxidermy is hot?
Hope you’re feeling better.
Taxidermy! OMG… that’s hilarious. Sorry you’re feeling bad, get better soon.
LMAO! Taxidermist? That’s hilarious! Was all the schooling worth it to become a taxidermist?
Hope you feel better soon!
Wait, you’re not a taxidermist? Well, that changes everything.
Sorry you got the bug, at least I can say it wasn’t from me! I want to know who the celebrity is!
Additionally, if you need help kicking your drinking habit, I’m certain I can find a meeting for you. Or if you prefer, I can just walk you through the steps with my astounding photography. Either way, equally effective.
Taxidermist!! LOL! I’m sorry to hear you are not feeling well
{ Hoepfuly you’ll be better real soon! And I’m dying to know who this celebrity was!!! What a tease!
Hysterical.. I hope your feeling better..
Is the celebrity a native of Texas?
All, I appreciate your interest in knowing who the celebrity is. But if I reveal him, it would out my husband and in turn me. Sorry! Like I said, though, he’s a celebrity among certain people. In all seriousness, many of you would not know who he is.
I hope you are feeling better!!
And I hope you have gotten out of the hotel a bit!
stupid karma…
