I’m the late riser today. I stayed awake watching The Crown last night. I made it through episode 4. I did not realize they were so long.

Hello and welcome Astro. A quick pop in is fine. It’s nice to have new people. Your job sounds interesting with a lot of responsibility and the pay off of great performances. Do you ever have have acts you don’t like much?

Was the red eye on the menu yesterday? If so I missed it but I’d like one. I drink coffee for the bang first and then the flavor. Kind of like I drank alcohol I guess.

Stay safe and dry purps and gator.

Have a good Thursday all.

Imval,
I was just checking out the Coffee Menu this morning and didn't know what a Red Eye or Lungo was...I am a "lightweight" when it come to caffeine. In reality, I put coffee in my cream! Lol

Up at 5

I hope the storm didn't do damages for Gator, Purps and Sober Leigh in Florida

I've finished "The Watcher" since you were talking about it Val
It was ok but I was surprised to see it ending so abruptly...there will be a 2nd season for sure.

Have a nice Friday friends! ☼

Up at 5:00 AM myself CK. I read there will be a 2nd season of The Watcher. That would explain the ending which wasn’t an ending at all. The actress playing Diana in The Crown has eerily captured her. Emmy nomination for sure.

I did not know what a few of those coffees were Chloe. I’m not a coffee connoisseur or even a Starbucks regular. I had a friend from the old drinking days who would only drink cappuccino. Sadly our friendship was formed around alcohol and hasn’t survived.

It is 13 degrees now with a high of 19 forecast. I wish I was by a fireplace with a cat curled up on my lap this morning. I like sweaters and boots but this is just plain awful.

Happy Friday.

I'm sure I'll get to watch for at least a few minutes, but usually we're very busy and sometimes posted outside. Was exciting to see all the tour buses and semis last night though, amazing how much support it takes to put on a concert!

Thank you for the welcome, and yes, I'm not a huge fan of rap and Latin music but I always enjoy the crowds for the most part, their energy is inspiring!

I'm going hiking and hunting this morning, thank you to all the veterans who've served our great country!

Astro,
I use to work in an office by the Scottsdale Airfield in the early 90's with plans to go to ASU. Ended up going to Marquette U instead. My brother visited me and loved AZ so much he moved to Tucson! Now I visit him!
​​​ Never saw a concert in AZ but did take a road trip to Red Rocks in Co! My concert days are over but, glad you have such great opportunities!

I might be the earliest of risers this morning. Up at two for work.

Rainy and 70 degrees yesterday. We have had the strangest weather so far this fall.

Have a good Saturday all!

Up at 5:00 with alarm. I woke up several times last night and am going back to bed if I have no early babysitting call. Son’s workday is up in the air so I am also! I’m skipping yoga either way. I would be snoring through the meditation anyway.

Chloe I have been to Red Rocks a couple of times. I don’t know if I could or would make the trek up the hill huffing and puffing at this point. It is a beautiful venue!

Lungo coffee for me please.

Have a good Saturday everyone.

Up at 5:30 after an incredible 8½ hours of deep sleep.

Ready for a Doppio coffee to kick out my engine!

I look like this on Saturday mornings without a hangover!



Have a good day friends ☼

CK I love that vid, that's how I feel too in the mornings!

Chloe I actually visited Tucson twice over the last couple weeks, hadn't been there since my son graduated from UofA 5 years ago. I love the Mexican food in that area, always so good.

I got to work the stage area for a few minutes last night while Elton performed, wow does he put on an amazing show and played 2.5 hours of all his hits. Watched much of it as my team patrolled the guest suites. Can't wait to do it all over again tonight, sorta the culmination of two weeks of hard work.

Have a great weekend everyone. Sobriety rocks!

Thankfully, it was mostly a non-event for this area. Gator, purps???
