Best Weekend Ever, Part 2

On Sunday, we took my parents to the Loveless Cafe & Motel, which is a famous landmark in Nashville. They are known for their biscuits and I’m not a big fan of biscuits, but these were actually really good. I ate mine with fresh blackberry jam. One of their cooks has appeared on Ellen’s talk show and that’s how we first heard about them.

I had fried chicken, macaroni & cheese, and caramel sweet potatoes. Mmm-hmmm.

Sunday night, we went to downtown Nashville to see Kathy Griffin. It was like a gay pride parade outside the theatre. The show was so funny! Seeing Kathy Griffin live is so much better than any of her specials on TV.

When the cameras are not rolling, Kathy is much filthier. There were actually a lot of straight couples in the crowd, and when she made a joke about fisting, they got all uncomfortable and gasped. That was priceless!

Her show runs 2 hours, and she really works hard. She has a natural gift for comedy, everything just flowed perfectly. And her material is extremely current. She had new jokes about things that just happened in the media last week.

There was a drunk bitch in the front who started heckling here when she made jokes about Ann Coulter. Kathy finally said “Hey, I don’t come to your job and knock the dicks out of your mouth!” HA!

So that was my weekend. Every minute of it was great and I had so much fun with our family, friends, good food, and great comedy!

I love Kathy Griffin! We saw her perform last year at the Hard Rock theater. She was shocking and hillarious!

I was sad when I found out her San Francisco show was sold out. Too my delight she added a second show and I got tickets yesterday. Yipeeee. I love her style of comedy. It makes me feel like we are hangin’ out.

So happy the show was great!! I wish I was there, but then again, I got Madge tomorrow here in NYC.

BTW, I was thinking about you and Rodney, hoping you kids were safe… I was on a plane flying directly over Nashville last night and watched the severe thunderstorm from above the clouds. It was amazing… and I thought, “If we crashed right now, I wouldn’t be able to tell Nathan that I flew over his house during the storm.” Honestly, that thought went through my head, not about that if we crashed, I’d be caput. Yes, I am a freak. I know that already.

I’m beginning to like her more and more. Glad you had a nice time and a good weekend, Nathan!

Sounds like a great time, especially the fried chicken! I’v never seen Kathy but will check her out!

Hmm…why would you assume all of the gaspers were straight? You freakin’ heterophobe.

I’d like to see Kathy Griffin live one day…the filthier the better!

wow, fried chicken AND Kathy Griffin!
I bet you had to take the next day off to recuperate.

Kathy is so cunty. I love it.

For a while I used to joke around and say that Kathy Griffin was Andy Dick in drag because you never saw them in the same room at the same time and they did amazingly look alike… until Kathy had her plastic surgeries and stuff.

I gotta check to see if she’s performing around CT.
