Put on my Blue Suede Shoes and I Boarded the Plane...

| | Comments (2)

So I have been having all this Memphis de ja vu lately, and tonight I got, not one, but TWO emails from two separate friends, who don't even know each other, referencing Memphis.

Four and a half years ago, I spent four life-changing days in Memphis for the Country Cares for St. Jude Kids Radiothon Training Seminar. I toured St. Jude, held a lot of sick babies, and partied with the likes of Brad Paisley, Tommy Shane Steiner, Keith Urban, Steve Holy and Mindy McCready.

Several margaritas and two rolls of film later, I was standing at the Wawa one-hour photo counter with my cawfee tawlk buddy Karen. I could barely breathe as I handed over these irreplaceable memories to a teenager, whose first day it obviously was, and my jaw dropped as he ripped the film out of the canister. And needless to say, who needs pictures, with a memory like mine... I think you've heard that run-on story a thousand times, but it makes a good argument for digital cameras.

I have incredible composure and an active inner monologue that other people don't know about, and I've been subjected to enough prison movies.
