Just a small town girl

Sometimes I feel really boring. I have only lived in Lexington and Staunton. I have never traveled extensively (like my brother and Jack) or been invited to NYC Fashion Week (like a girl I went to school with). I don't make a lot of money (or really any for that matter) and everything that I do make goes directly back into the business. So I have to say that it is pretty surprising when people that have known me for a long time say that I am doing cool things-- because I don't notice it and God knows I have never been cool.

I get some really great bands in here-- traveling troubadours, electronic bands from Prague, famous metal acts-- and we have fun events like last nights Shakespearean monologue slam and magazine launch parties, but I look at those things as work, because without them I wouldn't have a job.

I have to say that it is really nice that while I frequently don't recognize what we do here as awesome it is really reassuring to know that others do. So thank you to everyone who frequents the Cafe and makes everything that we do here worthwhile. Without your continued support there would be no reason to keep having such a variety of "cool" events.
