what does a monastic hippie do on the 14th of July?
(duh) reads storybooks aloud in a bar!
see, we were out on the porch at 19 broadway, waiting for pete's band to play. He said they were playing at 9, but they definitely didn't start until 11:30... ish. We were talking about Dr. Seuss because pete currently is sporting a seussish haircut - i.e. tufted at the top. I started exclaiming about how much I loved the LORAX and started quoting it -- and voila -- a man in a skirt took that very book out of his guitar case and handed it to me. I proceeded to read it aloud to all who cared. By the end the whole porch was listening, and I skipped about 20 pages to get to the good part really quick because the music actually was starting -- and I stood up on a chair and SPOKE FOR THE TREES.
(those beautiful, soft-tufted truffula trees!)
