Day Three Intro to Cynthia and Ernie Have Fun: The Married Edition

So by Saturday we were starting to get into the routine. We got up, headed out to the Nashville Biscuit House for breakfast. Eggs over easy, sausage, potatoes and a side of sliced tomatoes. Delightful. We went back to our AirBnB for a bit and then I started getting antsy to get going. I really, really, really wanted to see Brock Zeman and Blair Hogan at the Hatwrks show that Mary Sack had put together.

Ernie and I have slightly different approaches to being on time (you do remember he and Owen missed their flight from DC after the Groovies show, right?).  We then had one of those interactions that makes you realize how god damned married you are.

Me: Should we get going?

ELB: In a minute, I want to finish this.

Me: (a few minutes later) So maybe we should go?

ELB: Yeah, let me finish this.

Me: (a few minutes later) Come on, we have to get going. I don't want to be late and miss them.

ELB: Ok. What shirt should I wear?

Me: (sigh) The blue one.

ELB: Oh, I have to go to the bathroom first.

Me: (sigh)

We finally get in the car.

ELB: Oh, I need to get some gas.

Me: We don't have TIME!

ELB: Ok, I'll get it after.

Me: NOOO! We have to leave RIGHT after David Olney so we can make the Aaron Lee Tasjan show at Little Harpeth!

ELB: Well, we need to get gas at some point.

Me: (in my mind I'm yelling "BROCK ZEMAN AND BLAIR HOGAN ARE TWO OF THE PEOPLE I WANT TO SEE MOST AND YOU'RE GOING TO MAKE ME LATE FOR THEM?" Instead, I just looked at him)

ELB: (long sigh)

Me: Oh, don't start that sighing thing.

ELB: (in tone of intense irritation) Cynthia

Then we found a gas station, got gas, and arrived in plenty of time for the show.

We are so fucking married.

Brock Zeman and Blair Hogan were fantastic. We really hope to get them to the house one of these days.
