Stuff I Learned This Weekend 2014-08-22T15:47:30-05:00
  • I really prefer a hand held microphone to the clip on kind. 
  • If I have the clip on kind I will play with the cord.
  • I will also fidget non-stop with the lanyard from a name tag.
  • I like autographing books.
  • It’s even better when it’s a book I wrote.
  • I love new homeschoolers. They make me incredibly happy to be around.
  • Nuns make me even happier.
  • The restaurant on the San Antonio Riverwalk where we had dinner puts A LOT of tequila in their margaritas.
  • Drinking tequila makes me laugh.
  • The San Antonio River is only 3 feet deep.
  • Singing Jose Cuervo at the Riverwalk as you stagger back to your hotel and try to not fall in the river is as fun as I’d imagined.
  • Even though I mostly sang it in my mind.
  • If, after drinking a good bit of tequila, you put your head back and then sit up really fast…whoa…it’s like an extra buzz
  • After drinking a good bit of tequila, I realized that I was bada** enough that I could probably successfully defend myself from a zombie attack with a bell hop cart and a bucket of ice.
  • If you get locked out of your hotel room when you go for ice, you’ll think about weird stuff while you wait for someone to come and open the door.
  • Hanging out in quiet hotel hallways is creepy and makes me think if zombie attacks and The Shining?
  • If I stop to say hi to childhood friends for a fast hello on my way home, I will stay twice as long as I had planned.
  • Seeing them is worth the additional delay
  • Driving at night used to be fun, now the headlights give me headaches.
  • The 80s channel on XM radio seems brilliant until you get to hour three of listening, then you realize that 80s music is weird
  • Drinking an energy drink to be able to stay awake while driving really works
  • If you drink an energy drink to stay awake while driving, you won’t be able to sleep when you get home at 1 a.m.
  • Raccoons aren’t cute, they’re scary. They’re especially scary when the run out of the rain gutters and almost slam into you while you’re unpacking the car at 1 a.m.
  • I’m pretty sure that raccoon was cussing me out
  • Raccoons have razor sharp talons, huge fangs, and demon eyes.
  • I could be wrong about all of that.
