I don't know. But softball was fun.

Lucinda's my new girlfriend, no matter what Al Lowe says. She knows the truth.

Woo! It was awesome.

Berman coming to Darras! Chao Famiry so excited!

I don't know AB. She and I had something strong and special in Austin.

Did she sing Lonely Girls? Did you diiiiiiie during Essence?

-- Anonymous, May 02, 2001

She did sing Lonely Girls, and alas, I did not die during Essence, because I was getting a beer. Sadness. I don't even care, though, because she dedicated a song to Townes Van Zandt, but we all know it was really about me. Drunken Angel, of course, was the name of the song.

of course that would was yours. Well, I guess you can have Lucinda. It's not fair for me to keep Greta Gaines and Lucinda all to myself.

Mike - are you meeting T today or tomorrw?

-- Anonymous, May 02, 2001

Don't know. I think it depends on her schedule with the client.

Lucinda nearly killed me last night. Nearly.Killed.Me.

But it was worth it.

GodDAMN, I love that "I envy the wind" song. Lord.

And tomorrow she's in New Orleans and Saturday she's in Atlanta and I'm not seeing her once. Not once.

I know you're all broke and stuff, and so am I, but I'm thinking I'll just quit my job and practice my guitar all day. Do you think that would be all right?

Oh, Al. I love you. I already found that website! And I have learned to play three songs already. Her chord progressions are really easy. And also, I am a big dork for using "chord progressions" in a serious way.

-- Anonymous, May 02, 2001

Man, every song has like 3 chords, maximum. Even I might be able to do that. If they're D, G, A. You know.

Al - perhaps you're not getting my emails? Just wanted to say thanks for calling me last night.

The "I changed the locks on my front door" song has only three chords- -A, G, and E. So easy! Cool.

Mayn, I am not getting anyone's e-mails. The texashealth server is ass. Could be because my e-mail box is full to overflowing... but I don't know.

I can't believe you got a message - I called everybody in my cell phone memory, and the battery was nearly dead. I barely got to listen to Essence, I had so many people to call.

I'm glad you got to listen to part of it.

I just pre-ordered the new album.

I hate that Eric's in PST and was actually awake to hear it. But see, now I have it saved.

I've pre-ordered it too!

This is a good page too. I got that Kasey Chambers CD and it's pretty good. How badly do I want to go to Chicago on the 18th of June? And now that my brother is living there, I just might.

Good, good. And Susan's meeting is at 2 CST and T promised to call me when she found anything out. In case y'all are as burned up over this gross injustice as I am.

Okay. Pop country, or new country or whatever you wanna call it. I have a love/hate affair with it. But I have to say, this Sarah Evans CD is fabulous. I adore it. She even has a Lucinda-esque song called Four-Thirty that I've listened to about 87 times now.

Johanna, Chris would be in heaven if you brought Montego down. I'm just saying. Ooh - his boss is on NIghtline tonight. Execution recordings and some such.

I am planning on seeing the Bermanator tonight. I'm staying near DuPont CIrcle in a swank-ass hotel. Hotels are still a novelty tonight.

Al must not like me any more, because alas, no Lucinda call.

-- Anonymous, May 02, 2001

Oh, yeah, internet access in the swank ass hotel.

-- Anonymous, May 02, 2001

Hey, I didn't get a Lucinda call either. Good think that didn't happen earlier Tuesday, because the E-Savers came today and I could fly to Columbia, South Carolina for $119 instead.

Or not.

Anything exciting happening?

Seriously, I rarely stay in hotels. When I was little, we NEVER stay in hotels. So I still get all excited when they're, say, nicer than the Family Inn in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee (where eight of us once stayed in one room).

My parents are meeting with the president at 2:30. My mother was at the school this morning and Sister Ambrose, who taught my mother, couldn't even sa hello to her. No one is allowed to talk to my family, the teachers are furious, Susan's counselor is in tears, and my mother swears that after this, all their support for that school will be gone, along with all the support of our extended family. Y'all, I have an aunt who donated a library. This will not be pretty.

I don't think it's the silent treatment. I think it's that they're not allowed, right?

Poor, poor Dominican. No clue what it's in for.

T - check your hotmail.

-- Anonymous, May 02, 2001

Yep - no one is allowed to talk to them. My mother's heart is broken, y'all, but more importantly, she's pissed off like she's never been before.

I checked the hotmail and replied.

Who are you meeting with for the lobbying gig?

-- Anonymous, May 02, 2001

Today we're meeting with Sen. John Warner (R-VA). I guess you're a constituent. Tomorrow is the busy day - Mike DeWine (R-OH), John McCain, Max Cleland, Zell Miller (who, speaking confidentially, will be switching parties tomorrow), and Rep. Johnny ISakson. THose three are all Georgia.

I hate laptop typing.

I don't know if I'm a constituent or not. I'm still registered to vote in Maryland, but I do live in the state he represents.

I'll be sure to give DeWine a shout-out. DId you work for him?

No, but I've met him several times and he's a Miami alum. And his chief of staff, Laurel Pressler (also a miami alum) gave me tons of contacts at the statehouse when I was looking for a job.

He's a little, little man. Try not to stare.

I'm back.

Sorry AB, I did not mean to ignore your lunch invite, but I got called in for a meeting in... wait for it... EULESS. So, I had to run over there, and I got, uh, lost on the way back.

See, Texas has too many roads, and they all seem to be going in the same direction, but they're not.

T and M, you received no Lucinda calls because my battery went dead during a call to my friend Holly in B'ham. And Berman, I don't know what you're bitching about since you will be here in a few days and AB has learned all the songs now and I can just sing them all to you. It ain't the same, but it's like, nearly as good since it's me and AB.

Teri, I await news of your sister's Nun Trial with barely concealed rage. I hope everything goes alright. The saints are on your side. Tell your mother to ask the Disciplinarian "What Would Jesus Do?"
