on friday night flippy, her friend becky (not to be confused with mah Aint Becky), suzie and i went to the alabama theatre in b’ham to see the one and ONLY Loretta Lynn.

it was a great show. i think i was smiling the whole time. she, of course, wore a huge fancy dress. she had to sit in a chair for most of the show, but hell, she’s in her early 70s…i’d rather her sit than fall out. she’s so funny and just…i don’t know…precious. i’m sure she’s a handful though, i know enough old southern ladies to know that they’re all a bit…pushy. but still she’s so cute and funny. i’m glad i’ve been able to see her twice now. she’s an amazing person.

she didn’t sing my two favorite loretta songs (“rated X” and “mrs. leroy brown”…but her granddaughter did! and she did a good job of them too.

loretta opened with “let your love flow” which i think is a bellamy brothers’ song, but i’m not sure. she of course, ended the show with “coal miner’s daughter”.

i finally got a new cell phone. same number just a new phone. it’s one of those fancy newfangled camera phones. this means that strange things will stop happening to me now that i’ve got a way to document them. say la vee.
but i still feel like a rock star now what with having a camera phone! although, i haven’t figured it out yet. but it can’t be too hard.
