Drop of a hat, night on the town...

Last night we found ourselves last-minute recipients of two tickets to the RPO performance at the Eastman theater. We literally were out the door about 45 minutes after my bro and SIL called to offer us both the tickets and babysitting for the night.

I had worked Saturday morning, saw 12 patients in 4 hours, hit the gym on the way home, and hadn't managed to get cleaned up yet -- had to sprint through the shower and try to figure out what to wear... resolved that I'm going to have to go shopping for an emergency last minute night out outfit & keep it under glass with a hammer at the ready to smash the case if this ever happens again.

I've wanted to go to the Eastman ever since we moved here, but we'd never gotten around to it. Managed to navigate the quickest route there, and we sat down just as the lights went down (after sprinting 4 flights to the upper balcony). Parking was free, tickets were free, babysitting was free. Unexpected blessings, all.
