Whatever you do DON'T MAKE EYE CONTACT

Last night Deidre and I went to the Stars game compliments of my "brother." Now, I know it's an ice rink, but it was so cold in there. I'm glad I was wearing a sweatshirt, even if I was still freezing. Props to the older guy sitting next to Deidre that lent her his jacket so she would be warmer and for offering us his rolaids in case our cardiac nachos started talking to us! The game was fun, though it was so quiet in there at times I wondered if we were the only ones there! It was a win for the Stars! The funniest thing that happened during the game was some random guy right by the glass dressed up in some red super hero costume banging on the glass everytime an opponent skated by. It was very bizarre. And I couldn't stop watching him to see what he would do next. Weird.

Talking about weird...the DART rail ride home was interesting. After we are all packed in there like sardines, these 2 drunken idiots get on the train and start yelling to everyone about singing Christmas Carols together and they decide they want to sing Jingle Bell Rock....their version was something like...."Jingle Bell Rock and Jingle Bell Roll." I looked at Deidre and I was like, WTF?!?!? The entire ride they are talking really loudly about their "sticks" and what girls they've had. Now we are sitting behind 3 younger boys and a Dad who has just about had enough. I hate people like this who try to talk like they're all that, but really they're just losers on a train talking crap no one cares about. So everyone just about exits the rail car at the George Bush Station and these guys sit down right by us (this is where I say, don't make eye contact) and proceed to ask us if they can ask us some stupid question about a girl one of these boys is interested in. Deidre and I are just sitting there like this cannot be happening. We don't have an answer for him. I just tell him to be honest to her because girls don't like liars. haha They decide to tell us their names and we introduce ourselves with fake names. You can now know us as Lisa and Catherine. haha Apparently "Ash" has seen Deidre at some place that she's only ever been to once. Deidre assures him he doesn't know her. We exit the rail car and hurridly walk to our cars and leave.

It takes all kinds of people to make the world go round. You learn this in a rail car packed like sardines.
