Deidre Checks in from RIchmond KY
Hi Biddy Buddies!
Happy Voting Day! Hope you all remembered to "Cast That Ballot"!
Deidre here, checking in from the road. I'm sitting in my room in the amazing Bennett House in Richmond KY.
It RULES! It's totally gorgeous, with beautiful wood carvings and amazing showers that remind me of circus tents (probably only because I used to play in the circus).
We Biddies have hit halfway in the tour, and that means we are TIRED! It's the kind of tired that you can't even really explain, and that no amount of sleep or rest will cure. The only thing that cures it is being back home, and we still have several days left and many long drives ahead of us. This means there will be lots of negotiating for driving time, backseat bench/sleeping time, eating time, private time, radio time, quiet time. And there will likely be lots of business talk on our 14-hour drive to Atlantic City as well as Missy Elliott dance parties, as well as giggling fits, as well as (I'm sure) some tired snippiness and arguing which will be solved, again, by: sleeping time, eating time etc etc. The cycle continues.
So far we are having a ball and everyone has been as nice as humanly possible to us. People keep giving us chocolate!! We played in the Ballroom at Eastern Kentucky University to celebrate Election Day. We had some hardcore Biddy Buddies show up in Biddies t-shirts, Ken and Stephanie-and they had even made a cute shirt for their newborn, Gavin! Check back soon for a new "Biddy Buddies" page on the website with photos of fans. Thanks to all our Biddy Buddies everywhere-you are the reason that we do this!
Off to bed now (everyone else is already asleep) We have a clinic on Marketing tomorrow and then lunch at a winery (life's tough, eh?) and then the long drive. I can hear a train in the distance, and unlike in New York when you hear the train, here it sounds romantic and evokes images of wide open America. From Kentucky, signing off. Sleep well, all..

Hi,
I really enjoyed the show! It is a shame that there were not more people, for such a large hall. But, I just considered it more of a personal show for my birthday (39 for the first time)! I have followed the Biddies since I saw you on The Cash Cab - what a hoot!
I hope the rest of the tour goes well!

My mom was probably one of the people that kept giving you chocolate. Glad you had fun in Richmond.
