The excitement of the day today was that it snowed! While it was cool to see the snow come down, I was not a fan of how stinkin cold it was. Not sure that Michigan is really on my list of places I'd like to live. In fact, I'm pretty sure it's not. :)
So this morning, Ronnie needed a "runner" to drive him to the store. This really nice 60-something year old man was kind enough to drive Ronnie on his errand and on the way there they made light conversation about the differences in Tennessee and Michigan. Ronnie mentioned "Port Huron" and the man kindly informed him that the locals pronounce it Port "yer-in" which, yes, sounds exactly like Port....well, you know. Fast forward to lunch. Ronnie leans over and said, hey....psst. guess how the locals pronounce the name of their town? he told me. i couldn't keep my laughter in. However, one of the men from the church overheard us and started to laugh too. hard. apparently that's NOT how the locals say it...they say Huron just like we do...and the guy was totally pulling Ronnie's leg hoping that he'd say "Port Urine" from onstage thinking it would be a funny joke. Which really made it funnier. Fortunately, we all got a good laugh and no one embarrassed themselves over the mic. well....not too badly anyway. :)
Gotta love showbiz.
Guess that's all until tomorrow. My eyes are burning. I'm ready to hit the sack! :) Night night!
