I loved yesterday.
I went to the Crystal Cathedral with Christy's sweet parents, Leanne, and Aaron to hear Travis Cottrell. As we were waiting for the service to start, this usher (who was at LEAST 130 years old) gave us what he called the 25 cent tour - which basically meant that we sat in our seats and let him tell us interesting facts about the cathedral. My favorite part was when he said that his wife calls the ladies restroom the Taj Mahal, and then he said, and I quote, "I've never been in there myself. But I will someday." More power to you, sir. You can get away with pretty much anything when you're 130, in my opinion.
Then we met up with Mike and went to lunch with Travis at El Torito (I. Love. Omlette stations. And jackets.) and ate and laughed, and then we took Travis to the airport. Here's the best past (Daniel, you are going to love this) - we always make fun of Travis for this part in Frosty the Snowman from his
new Christmas CD (in stores now!) where he sings the "thumpitty thump thump" part really jazzy-like. (BTW, for all you scatters out there - "thump" is now an appropriate one syllable word to use in your scatting adventures. Let me demonstrate. Zee ba do zap bop thump!) Anyway, he hates it (aka secretly loves it) when we make fun of him for it, so I had the iPod all cued up and ready to go at that part in the song when he got in the car. It was legendary.
Boo yah, Travis. Boo yah.
Anyway, it was just an enjoyable few hours. And enjoyable few hours indeed. Singing + laughing + making fun of people = a great day.
