I’ve never known the words to that song. Where do people pick up that kind of thing? Lots of people seemed to know how to sing it.

DeVotchKa gave a New Year’s Eve performance at the Show Box. Daniel gave tickets to everyone in the family. Those guys are super talented. Everyone played more than one instrument REALLY well. They had a real gypsy sound. I liked it a lot. Jeff and Lauren suggested earplugs before the show. That was a great idea because it was loud even with them in the whole time.

We took a cab in from Mercer Island. What a great idea! We came late so that we could have dinner at home and feed Eden before we left. That worked out great too, because the show didn’t start until after 10 pm. We all split off kind of funny at the end so that we could drive Daniel and Kim home. We got home at around 2:30. And just as we went upstairs, Eden woke up to eat again. Perfect timing!
