Life's got a bucketfull of woes for the poor little critter on the road
So, late in the summer, I was dragged out to Woodinville so I could watch, listen, and shiver while Tori Amos sang and appeared increasingly bored with her repetoir. The amphitheater at Chateau Ste. Michelle is a breathtaking venue on clear days. This was not a clear day.
The tickets were bought cheaply for reasons I don't remember. The opening band was a duo called the Ditty Bops. They sounded awfully sweet from a distance, though Kitten and I missed seeing them because I wanted the security guards to KNOW AND UNDERSTAND that I was RIGHTEOUSLY PISSED OFF because Tori Amos pooh-poohed on flash-photography. Kitten didn't even realize that she had a camera on her. Kitten'd parked in the Red Hook Brewery's parking lot. I'd worked a long shift that day and the last thing I wanted to do was to stomp around the soggy pathways that littered the winery campus.
So, stomp, stomp, drop off camera, Tori Freaking Amos Concert, then, fast-food drive in, and then, and then . . .
ZOMBIE DEER TOPIARY.
Freaky-deaky beastly bush-sculpture in the drive-thru at one of the more prominent fast-food outlets right smack in the heart of "Western Washington Wine Country"? Good God, WHY?
