A Hot Friday Night In Memphis
...and when I say hot, I mean, like, 80+ degrees.Having grown up right here in the river city, a hot and humid summer night always takes me back to my younger days.....you know the ones, when you've got way too much free time on your hands, not much cash, and the world is wide open?
Right off the top of my brain, I'm rememberin': working at the Seessel's in Raleigh (that's right baby! Rockin' Raleigh! Home of the Stage Stop!) and kickin' it in the parking lot until 2 a.m. with the stocking crew; nights at the Sigma Chi house (just a hundred yards from where I am right now! all those years that i lived in that beat down fraternity house, i had no idea that i'd work just down the street. and i'm very glad that the street can't talk) drinking iced down beverages after a long night of backyard basketball; walking the streets (in Raleigh, where else?) with my teenage posse, wishing we knew someone who was a) old enough to drive, and b) had a car.
I'm sure you've got your own fond memories....just step outside, ease yourself into nice pool of humidity, take your drink with you, and stroll down memory lane.
