So I’m writing this to you on Thursday Marsh 23rd, but I don’t know when I can post it because I don’t know when I will have internet access. I am in Quincy, Illinois, right on the Mississippi River….so basically in Missouri. This hotel has turned out to be an absolute disaster. We saw online that they had a pool, spa, exercise room, and internet….and they have none of it! So I have taken to knitting, typing, and taking pictures of myself. I called some of you…but no one answered. Thanks. Markuz is sleeping (or napping as he calls it).
Well back to where it was. Last I spoke to you, we were headed to Bellaire. We stayed in Acme. In this hotel, and the one we stayed at the following night, we had seen cheaper prices online than what they had in the hotel. Both of these hoes made us go out to the car and make the reservation online. RIDICULOUS! Anyways, we performed Dot and the children were lovely. However, I did get a little girl yelled at during the show. She wouldn’t give me the poppies because she was trying to protect me. Too cute.
We
Turkey!
Amazing had a 4 hour drive to Holland, where we were staying to perform in Byron Center. On this 4 hour drive we saw beauty. I must say, Michigan has the most beautiful sky and sunsets. Actually, the sun didn’t completely set until about 8pm. We stopped by Torch Lake to take pictures, but it was freezing. There was snow on the rocks outside of the lake. Insane. I took pictures of Traverse Bay, which is part of Lake Michigan. Beautiful. WE also saw a few very strange things. It was almost as good as Sasquatch. We saw 2 hitchhikers and a herd of turkeys. WOW. Then Markuz found paradise….King’s Chinese buffet. That place needed cots! We haven’t had Chinese at all during the tour. It was awesome. Afterwards we felt like beached whales, so we found a hotel with a gym. Working out immediately.
We arrived in Holland at an Econolodge. Nothing exciting. However, I don't know if I have told yhou about this, but its worth repeating. We are being haunted by a child. Everywhere we go we find old dried up crayon pieces. In our car, hotel room, bags, etc. Its freaky. Neither one of us brought
Traverse Bay
Lake Michigan crayons with us. Spooky.
We had a show (Shakespeare) at a Christian Middle School. It was great. The perfect demo graph to perform the show to. We left he school and went grocery shopping. We had to eat well.
We had the funniest day ever! We laughed for about 90% of the day. It all began when I started to finish Markuz’s sentence and he said to me “You go ahead. I didn’t want to finish it anyway.” Then later he tells me that he almost emptied the juice of his Sardine can in my toiletry bag on accident. But when he said it, he didn’t say almost, so I thought he had and was confessing. Later on he almost killed me as we exited the freeway and he was going to fast. I began yelling “I’m going to die.” Then I told him that I saw my life flash before my eyes and it was black. He paused and said “You need to check your reel. Because the next time that happens you need to be prepared.” There better not be a next time!
We thought that we would spend our day off in Indianapolis. What
a brilliant idea…thanks to me. We stayed downtown and found all the gay bars. Even a lesbian bar…and it was karaoke night! First I met every black person, and then some crazy bitch felt the need to talk to us. WOW. She couldn’t get through a sentence she was so drunk. Then she fell on me and knocked me out of my chair. That drunken hooker. Then Markuz started talking to the cutest boy in the universe. Adorable. Did I mention that bottles of beer were $1!!! I sang a few songs (and even had back-up dancers for Proud Mary). Then I moved my way over to the lesbians. Fun times. I talked to Kathy who was a friend of Markuz’s hottie (Allen). She…is….precious. WE are going back to Indy this weekend to hang out more. Woo Hoo. Rock on road warriors.
With any luck I will have stories for you on Monday. I love you all. If you have anything to say…or not….give me a damn comment. If you have something that not everyone needs to see…Please just message me. Once I accept your comment, the entire WWW can see it.
As always…adoring you

Hi Sar Bear... Did I tell you, or perhaps you already know this, that there is a bar downtown....can't remember it's name at the moment, that has KNITTING every Thursday night!!! Is that our kind of place, or what? Don't know what kind of folks hang out there....probably a bunch of dorks, so we aught to fit right in. Now that I think of it....it could be Wednesday nights, but either way, high times. SOOO, it's Sundays at Nunu's, Mondays at The Caliph, and Wednesdays or Thursdays at forgotton name bar. Good god, I can feel my gut expanding just thinking about it. There may not be enough olives in all of the land to keep our martinis dirty dirtay. Okay caloo. Mind yer p's and q's and PLEEEEEASE do not let Marky-Mark kill you out there on the highway. I would be sad indeed. PS- Would you still come and visit me and hang out with me if I lived in a 12x16 cabin with no electricity or plumbing? Just a little experiment I'm thinking about...... Love you like a walrus loves dental floss, Aims
