Thursday night, I went to the Majestic in Detroit to see Andrew Bird (one of my absolute faves) with Corban and Elise. The concert was Elise's birthday present to me, and it was a pretty amazing one.

He is a frequent shopper at Michaels, and has offered to have my drawings hung in a gallery in Lansing. Nice guy. But tonight he called me and asked if I was married. I said no.
