Concert

my parents came up for the Mannheim steamroller concert tonight. actually they came to town, we went shopping, did all my laundry that i've been putting off for the past 2 months, fixed one of the doors and started on the dishwasher. PHEW. too bad they don't live closer!! so tonight we went to the concert. it was a real interesting experience. the music was really good. the graphics, possibly from the 80s with a strong emphasis on mid evil. at any rate, the only pic i got of the entire evening was this, in the parking garage:

why did i take this in the parking garage? well, maybe perhaps because we were in there for 50 minutes talking to my poor sister on the phone for lack of better things to do.... and then, broke open the trail mix for something else to do (eat). i was driving my parent's vehicle and couldn't stop laughing. here's what it was like for 50 min:

mom: oh my gosh! those fumes! i can hardly stand the exhaust smell
beezer (sister, on speaker phone thru radio thing in car): phyllis! bad kitty (talking to cat in apartment)
mom: andi, stop tinkering with that
****** pause*****
mom: andi, put that down! i think i'm getting sick off emmissions....
dad: (trying to figure out why we are going so slow, as in not moving)
andi: this is totally like the seinfield episode..... JJJEEEEERRRRRRR-RRRRYYYY!!! ELAINE!!? KKKRRRRAAAMMMMMMMEEEERRR!!
beezer: you are stupid. that's why i don't watch seinfield
andi: this is SO funny
mom: oooh my stomach does not feel good....
dad: (pulls out trail mix)
mom: wait! we all have to sanitize our hands before we eat this!
andi: are you picking the m&m's out of the bag?
mom: andi! you cannot eat while driving! you need to foucs! (not moving)
andi: we're in park........ this is like when we go camping and i try to pick all the good stuff out of the bag and leave all the peanuts .... digress into camping story
beezer: hey! that's what i do too! phyllis! bad girl!
dad & andi: beezer, why don't you put her in time out again? ha ha ha!
mom: everyone is required to take random handfulls. no picking
dad: (best line of the night...) i've taken 2 random handfulls and only got 1 m&m!
everyone: aaah! we're moving! wait, what's that parking guy trying to signal to us? look.....? uhm....
dad: oooh! turn your lights on
everyone: thanks for entertaining us beezer! bye!

i know, it doesn't sound entertaining but i loved every minute of it!
