So, Lucie was at the vet today to see about some allergies that had been bothering her. Unfortunately, allergies weren’t the only thing her vet commented on. Additional to the slight redness in her ears…Lucie, 2 year, 7 month-old Lucie, weighed in at 78.9 pounds! We’ve been instructed to cut back on her morning and evening feedings (and most likely, the cookies too!). Everyone in Chez Rebaud is on a reduced intake plan now!
In other news…
Last Friday, S + I, joined our friends Niki and Bill for an evening with Jackie and Meg White at the Greek Theatre at UC Berkeley. Meg rocks! Just watching her drum that night made my arms tired! Jack was channeling the likes of Johnny Depp’s Willy Wonka. Even S was bit more impressed (not wholly, just a bit) when he saw them live. Most likely in awe of the 4-5 guitars Jack played on throughout the night. The following quote is from here:
Jack White is a star. But he’s a punk-rock kid from Detroit, too. A few lines into “We Are Going to Be Friends” Friday, he stopped the music when a pair of oversized white balloons landed onstage. “What the f — is this?” he demanded, grabbing one as it bounced by. “Some f — radio promotion?” He threw the offending balloons into the darkness and restarted the song. Afterward, he delivered his longest speech of the night: “Let me just say that if whatever said radio station tries to blacklist us for my comments about their balloons, I would like them to know I want a written apology tomorrow for interrupting my song.” Jack White is a star.

I talked to a colleague at work who said that she was at the Saturday night concert and that the above incident happened that night during the same song! Hmm…interesting.
