Patented Hubs Half-speak
On Saturday I took care of a few errands in the morning and headed out to Jimbo a’nd Oats wedding. It was really nice, really short, really traditional and very large. But it was really fun and I was thrilled to see them both so happy. Afterwards, I went to the reception at a local country club.
I was home by 9:30 and then went straight out to the Climax Lounge for the I Am The World Trade Center and Mates Of State show. Trade Center had a great show with the highlight being the encore cover of New Order’s “Bizarre Love Triangle”. But of course, I really came to see Mates Of State. I have been a long time listener of these guys and they have never disappointed. They had a great set and included all my favorites including the cover of Jackson Brown’s “These Days” (which I tried to record on Jamis answering machine but it turned out to be just a garbled mess) and an encore of “Everybody Needs An Editor” which was a big plus. They played a great combination of old and new, the crowd was small, and the sound was decent.
After the show I talked with Jason and asked if he’d be willing to get a few snapshots to make her jealous. Then I helped Kori load up the van and told her all about my contest and that there CD was the prize. Kori thought it was a great story and was asking me about it. They were both really cool and super friendly. I ended up pretty much just making a fool of myself by babbling and talking in patented hubs half-speak, but and it only goes to prove my celebrity crush is actually real.

“patented hubs half-speak” What is this? Is this something unknown to those of us new neighbors in hubsville?

If you don’t know me or haven’t talked to me you probably wouldn’t know what the half-speak is. But, I will often tell a story or try and say something about anything and just leave out half of what I meant to say. For some reason I think that people already know exactly what I’m talking about and can fill in any wholes I (subconsciously)choose to leave out. This leads to some confusing conversations and strange looks. This usually happens when I’m nervous, which is usually around large groups or new people , who, because they are new, actually need the whole story.

I think your celebrity crush is now simoply a “girl I know” crush, meaning you can wave your hand casually and say “and this girl I know…” which is cool. No, really, it is.
