You probably thought I forgot, right?
Well, you were right. I did.
I'm on my way to SXSW, a multimedia festival happening in Austin, TX. One of the groups I play with is backing up a solo artist for a few shows there.
Currently, I'm driving in a 12 passenger van, with all our gear, clothes and 8 guys through southwest Kentucky. We're trying to make Memphis, from Detroit, in 12 hours. We'll stay the night, and leave in the morning for Austin.
This is a long trip for me away from all my girls. My wife and I went to a friend's wedding last year, which ended up being 6 days. At least I had my wife to commiserate with about missing the girls.
I can't help but be just a little bit worried about leaving home. Two kids running around, wife pregnant, no big strong man to protect them. Who will help them in the event of a zombie outbreak? Who?!?!
I know its irrational, but I can't help it. As my dad would say, that's just being a parent. I think I should be worried about a bigger problem:
Finding cowboy hats and spurs in toddler sizes.
Not to worry Matt. The zombie wars are going to start in the Southeast and then sweep North. You should be home by then.
ReplyDeleteAnd I don't think you should worry about cowboy hats and spurs in toddler sizes. Those should be easy to come by.
