no cash cab but still fun

This past weekend my better half, LC, and I headed out to Fusion for a night of dancing and then greasy dinner food at the Kenmore. While the music selection at the club was slightly disappointing in comparison to last weekend, we did end up with our own personal concert on the way home.

After leaving the dinner we decided to call a cab, rather than walk from the Canal district back to the Abbey and were pleasantly surprised to get a serenade during our cab ride. The cab driver, who shall remain nameless, picked us up and after I inquired about the trumpet on the passenger seat began to pick it up and play an accompaniment to the jazz station he was listening to. The first song he played was "Mercy Mercy Mercy" which I sang along to. He was a really nice guy and did not even turn on the meter as we made our way to the Abbey. Just one of those random experiences in the world I guess.
