I didn\u2019t get out of the bed until nearly 1pm today! I suppose I was more than a little exhausted. I didn\u2019t eat breakfast, I didn\u2019t work out, I didn\u2019t go for a walk. Oh well! Sometime a woman just has to sleep! I\u2019d wanted to walk to the venue, but it was cold and rainy, and I was in no mood for cold weather. Besides, the venue itself was very cold, so I\u2019m glad that I didn\u2019t expose myself to the elements. Tonight\u2019s Birmingham show went well, with Stevie thanking everyone involved in the European tour, and inviting all of us band members to the front of the stage to give a group thank you to Europe.<\/p>\n
After the show, we boarded the busses for the drive to London. As usual, I fell asleep (I just can\u2019t stay awake while riding in a bus or airplane) and woke up just as we arrived at the hotel. We all cleared our belongings off of the bus, as we wouldn\u2019t be using the busses again. I noticed a man\u2019s blazer and after confirming that it didn\u2019t belong to the bus driver, I took it with me. I figured out the owner of the blazer, called and reported that I was bringing it to his room, simply out of courtesy. As I approached the elevator, I didn\u2019t notice the huge wad of gum that was sitting right at the entrance, and SPLAT!, my right shoe was afflicted with gum residue.<\/p>\n
Not too pleased, but too sleepy to be indignant, I instantly forgot the room number I was heading to, removed my right shoe and returned to the front desk to refresh my memory. The extremely gracious night manager noticed that I was holding rather than wearing my right shoe, and after reminding me of my colleague\u2019s correct room number, insisted upon taking care of my shoe, and offered me whichever amenities I\u2019d prefer as a compensation for my trouble. Of course, since I don\u2019t drink alcohol, I requested a fruit plate, and then had an epiphany: I should request complimentary internet service! The standard English rate for internet service is equivalent to approximately $35 per day, and that\u2019s just not a price I can pay without my stomach turning! After all, I pay $15 per MONTH at home! My request was granted, and I stayed up far too late taking advantage of it, but oh, how I do appreciate free internet!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
