i can't understand

Last night Jacob and I went to a concert in Atlanta.  The show was fun and good, but half way through I realized something.  I can never understand what the names are of the band members when they are introduced.  Annunciate please!  I have two theories for this conundrum.  The first is that the lead man or woman is eager to claim the spotlight so he or she cleverly sabotages the names during introductions.  The second is maybe more realistic.  When I was a little kid I always had trouble comprehending stories or books when they were read aloud to me.  Sometimes without seeing the words, my mind would connect the sounds together incorrectly.  This has improved and corrected over the years, but I think this may play into my little problem.  Without seeing the name "Jon Black", I may hear "Don Block".  However, if I know the name in advance it is completely coherent to me when I hear it announced.  Yea... it is a little tricky.  

Before the show, Jacob and I sat outside at a drive-thru/walk-up only Chick-Fil-A in Atlanta.  It was beautiful outside.  I ate a chicken salad sandwich and waffle fries while Jacob had a mexican salad that he picked up from the Qdoba next door.  We shared a lemonade also.  It was very romantic.  After dinner, we went to the mall across the street to pick up some flip flops for Jacob.  He left his Rainbows in a cab in the Dominican Republic so he needed some new ones for our beach trip.  He thought he bought an XL last time, but his "big" toe didn't quite fit on the sole of the shoe.  Seriously, his right foot is a full shoe size bigger than the left.  Luckily they had an XXL in stock so he was good to go.  After a quick stop at Sam Ash to look at guitars, we went to Caribou coffee so I could get a last minute jolt before the show.  We also hacked into their free wifi to double check the show time.  Ha.  It was a really fun night.  I'm excited for spring to arrive and stick around for a while.
