This is why I love Jim so much. Not only does he wash the dishes, but he also provides ample entertainment while doing so.

OMD
On Tuesday night, Jim and I got our 80's on and went to the Roundhouse Theatre for OMD (Orchestral Maneuvers in the Dark, for those of you not in the know). It was an experience!
First I have to describe the crowd: let's just say that Jim and I, at the not so young ages of 33 and 31 respectively (I'm the younger one, just in case anyone was wondering), were considerably younger than most of the people there. But, despite our 'youth' we were pretty lame compared to everyone else. People were dancing (80's style, of course) and singing and cheering and screaming and knew all the words to all the songs--true fans. There was a little bit of a fashion faux pas on stage (Men who are almost 50 and do not have the physique of Mick Jagger should stay far, far away from skinny jeans) but the lights were really cool, the band sounded just like the old days and the 80's dance moves were spectacular. Unfortunately we didn't do any video-taking and I can't describe in words what said moves looked like, but it was....so so 80's/robot/something. I would definitely go to OMD again! They're fun!

Yes, more cat blogging, but it really is hard to avoid it when there are cute cats doing cute things all the time around here. Tonight Jim found Jack snuggled up in my backpack, ready to go to the gym (or wherever the pack may take him). Maybe he's wishing he was traveling around the world with his beloved Meg and Dan.
