In which I list three unrelated, random things. Because this is my blog, damn it, and damn those ‘what to write about’ blog treatises too, because I’ve been blogging since before there was a fucking word for it and I’ll write whatever the hell I want to! One. I made meatloaf for Bread’s dinner the […]
In which I do almost nothing at all. Long weekend, y’all. I didn’t do much, though – I had a rousing several days worth of Cramps From Hell™ followed by a head cold. Friday we didn’t go to Misty’s b-day gathering at the bar, damn it, and Saturday night I stayed home while B. went […]
In which I see a Taco Bell commercial on TV at the bar and succumb. Last night Brett and I stopped after work at the Dead Cock for a bit. I chatted with Hattie, who was bartending, and Rachel, who dropped in briefly and told me about a new game she and her boyfriend had […]
Being an exhaustive report spanning four entire days, plus this morning. Friday Friday I did domestic shit: laundry, dishes, shopping, cooking, dusting and sweeping. Housewifery is boring and it sucks. We were going to go out Friday night, but Redbone fell asleep for a nap and didn’t bother to wake back up. Since he works […]
In which I liked the band. Thursday after work I met Mr. Brett at the Dead Cock for drinks. He went home eventually and I finished my cocktail and went out to find dinner. I ran into Hattie on her way in to work and said I’d be back to see her later. I walked […]
Wallflower no more, y’all. Tonight I’m going to rehearse with a band that’s thinkin’ about hiring me. Monday night I’m going to sit in with another band that’s thinkin’ about hiring me. It’s damned exciting to realize that within weeks of announcing my intention to start singing again (if you can call telling my friends […]
In which I get a new toy. This is an old acoustic that Bucket ‘gave’ me, and of which I have indefinite custody. My new free guitar! It needs strings sooooo bad, and I will buy it some and hopefully start playing regularly. All in an effort to be, you know, more musical. I’m thinking […]
In which I’m a wee bit confused. Yesterday I did boring domestic stuff. In the evening, I made dinner. Then I ate. Brett wasn’t home, so I went upstairs and got on the computer and spent nearly 45 minutes trying to pay for his contractor’s insurance online via a slow, buggy site. When I went […]
In which I’m rescued. Last night, Brett actually wanted to do something. We went to town and spent a few hours at The Red Rock tavern (we call it the Dead Cock because it’s such a nasty bar). Ed was having a going away party and there was nothing else to do. I had a […]
In which I buy some clothes. It’s 2:25 PM, and I’m sitting in front of the computer in my office. Brett’s asleep naked in the day bed. “Wake up! Wake up!” I call. “Let’s go to Ottumwa and eat, and go to Target and buy me some clothes.” Downtown Ottumwa, Iowa He said, “Mm hmm,” […]
