Nashville is an Epic Dissappointment, even more so because we have very very low standards and very few needs.
One bloody cup of flavoured coffee. That's it! And yet this huge metropolis is incapable of delivering that small thing.
anyway. moving on.
Gratitudes
1. I got to see some great old family & friends at bro's this weekend (yes, the cake was for him, it was a surprise so i didn't want to post about it too much tee hee) and see his lovely new house and overall make the trip
2. in spite of uber coffee annoyance today, grateful that we chose to stay in hotel room instead so that needed naps happened
3. meeting JH's brother was pretty epic and life changing for reasons I will write about later (if i can make it so that i can dedicate the hour or so to it without feeling too pinched elsewhere in life)
4. seeing again ppl from the past/from college whom i had the impression thought i was rubbish (bc i was so fucked up back then in every sense of the word) but it was all so nice that i must've been wrong. Always good to think that ppl thought better of you than you thought
5. i actualy really did enjoy getting weirdly lost in mid Kentucky and driving around for 2+ hours - technically we were not lost we were avoiding a bad accident site/epic backup on the freeway and
6. thanks to phone gps for giving us the map/route to plan an alternate to sitting on the freeway for 3+ hours instead of inetersting epic ride for 2+ hours

How cool that you got to meet J's bro for the first time! I love seeing the delivery of "THE CAKE" too :) Good lead up to that picture :) So cool. Sorry Nashville was such a disappointment! Bleh! I LOVE Nashville so much! Although this was ten years back and I was barhopping and such so maybe my recollection is blurry at best!
