Say So...Dumb Dumb...Do Do

Went to a Awesome concert with several of my wonderful friends tonight. Point of Grace started off the evening with four songs. Mandisa came next, then one of my all time favorites Ce Ce the only thing that would have made her performance better would have been Be Be:).Barlow Girl came out and rocked out. Man the drummer was amazing. She had muscles that made Popeye look weak. She banged the life out of the drums, sang her heart out (beautifully I might add), then started preaching. Wow what a girl! Natalie Grant has become one of my peeps now...yes we blog. She was amazing and made it look effortless. The girl has some pipes and she can blow. Then Israel Houghton came out and we had church. I will be stalking him now...not really but I will be finding out when he will be in concert again.

So after a wonderful concert we head to eat. Tammy suggested Mafiazios (sp?). It was not too far from the concert but we got lost. Not too lost just turned around a bit. When we finally get about two blocks from the restaurant I get stopped at a red light. I am sitting behind a silver Sephia wishing it would turn or get out of my way when out of the corner of my eye I see a man walking toward us. I had noticed this man before we stopped. He appeared homeless. So I am thinking okay homeless man is going to walk past the van. Homeless man gets some kind of braveness about him and slams his hands down on the passenger side window and starts yelling something. Well unfortunately for Tammy she was the passenger. She did not see Homeless man approaching the vehicle. Her first sighting of Homeless man was his big paws and face in her space. So she tells him to go away and calls him a dumb dumb. Then she grabs me and yells drive drive go go. Well that pesky silver Sephia was still in front of me and the light was still red so we had to wait about 30 seconds and then I gunned it. I am not sure what Homeless man was doing after all of this I am just glad I did not run over him. The restaurant was just a short distance from the red light...far enough away that we did not have to worry about Homeless man but not far enough away for our nerves to settle down. We meet our other friends at the restaurant and fill them in on our adventures. Tammy said," I really do have a great vocabulary and could have called him something better than dumb dumb. " Mysty says, " I'ts not what you can do, it's what you do do." Well the do do remark set everybody laughing to tears again. What fun! It really doesn't take a whole lot to make me laugh. I am just glad my front seat didn't have any moisture on it when Tammy got out of the car. I dropped Diana off at home first, then Mysty at church, and then took Tammy home. When she got out of the car I told her to have sweet dreams and hopefully Homeless man would stay out of them. That is when we noticed the smudge marks on the window. I bet if we would have had some powder we could have gotten a pretty good print off of that window. I thought he stuck his face to the window too. By the way this was not some cute little Homeless man this was a big scary big face big paws homeless man. Well enough about that just had to get all of that out of my head.
Maybe our next outing will be a little less eventful than this one. Or maybe not. We shall see....
