Another Brush with the Famous....

So...I had just come back to the hotel (work) to finish the daily paperwork after the bar had closed down late Friday evening.

I was on my way out the door heading back home when the bus pulled up carrying "Bob Dylan".......



I know, alot of the younger generation probably won't remember him (one of my servers thought he was a poet!!) and even for myself, his music , for the most part was a little past my generation. And if there were some songs he wrote and sang while I was growing up, it wasn't to my taste...but.....still it was cool to see him get off the bus with his "roadies" and walk into the hotel. What better thing to do at 3AM in the morning???



PS: He is playing in Kenosha at Carthage College tonight (saturday) and he and his group will probably sleep most of the day away in the comfy confines of the hotel, in order to be ready for their "gig" tonight.



A link about this great singer and songwriter if anyone feels like they need (or want) a refresher ont this guy:

Who knows...he may order Room Service this afternoon and guess who delivers Room Service orders in the afternoon?? Anyone want an autograph of a music legend?

Email me......just kidding.

I have and never will be an autograph hound, though I do have some pretty nifty momentos from meeting a few different popular personalities: An autographed CD from Joan Jet (Remember "I Love Rock and Roll-Put another Dime in the Jukebox Baby") and a "secret service pin" from Senator Edward's staff. Those are the two most recent, though I also have a couple more "do-ditties" from a few other people.



What else is happening..havn't been feeling too hot the last few days....I hope I am not coming down with the Flu or something. I dont usually get sick but the last few days, I just feel totally drained. And this weird fall weather? It is the end of September, and I have had the AC on for the last few days. Tempuratures in the 70s...humidity at or close to 100% and bizzare storms blowing across the state this weekend. Too strange. I guess its not only us though. Alot of strange weather patterns across the nation the last few weeks. Oh well. Time for Bed.
