Dire Straits in Minneapolis

OK, now that I've got your attention, I want to let you know that Michael and Bonnie flew to Minneapolis today, and actually went to a Dire Straits concert. Seems they got there, and things were a bit boring, so they looked around and discovered Dire Straits was in town and that they could actually buy tickets. Imagine a kid-free evening and going to a concert together-- how nineties.

Bonnie starts a series of outpatient tests tomorrow (Monday), and Michael is there until Tuesday, at which point he returns to Burlingame, then heads back to MN with Isabel and Devon in-tow on Thursday. Bonnie has Friday, Saturday, and Sunday free, so they will do something together as a family next weekend, and then Bonnie will be admitted on Tuesday (a week from this Tuesday).

Bonnie and Michael are staying in St. Paul as there are no rooms available in Minneapolis. Apparently Minneapolis is full of forty year-old kid-free couples as Dire Straits is a pretty big draw. By late this week, Bonnie's hospital-affiliated apartment should open up, so she'll be able to move into downtown Minneapolis soon.
