Well I am completely wiped out. I had a great time dancing with friends at the Get Back Loretta show last night. I had so much fun that I didn’t get to bed till 2:30 am and have spent the subsequent rest of my day resting/dozing off. This of course was after I went to the barn and it rained on me. It’s been a grey day but don’t let it disuade you from upcoming shows in San Diego!
