You guessed it. I went to see Maya Angelou. She was phenominal. ;-) She's really funny, and really open, and very beautiful. She was joking about aches and pains, and said she had advil "and a little something," for her knees. She read some poetry, but later I realized, what she'd read to us had all been memorized, because she wears glasses to read, and did that maybe once. It was all from memory.
I'm not going to summarize. I won't take a beautiful experience and reduce it into words. I'm just going to leave it at that it was wonderful.
There were some pretty dancers at the end too... ;-) Good song too.
And a woman I called from work had gone too. I mentioned that Maya Angelou came as a thing the university did, and she said, "Yes, I was there." So that started a conversation, and I stayed a little late, but it's all good. She was really nice.
I also hate lawyers. Not going into that. Just, why gripe about the poor, how sad it is for the elderly in nursing homes, the horrible state of social security, how hard the times are, and then tell me you voted for your "frat buddy" Dubya? Did Dubya even GO to college? I'm amazed. But really. Fucking moron. IF YOU VOTED FOR DUBYA, STOP COMPLAINING ABOUT THE NATION! I don't want to hear the whining.
I also think some ex's should stay buried. Nuff said.
