Oct. 19th, 2008 01:10 amHoly crap long busy day.
Stanley Amanda and Ale arrived, took the gang out to Chili's for my birthday, tooled around Atkins farms, and then we all went to see W., which was very Oliver Stone-y, but I liked it. Afterward they came back to the house and hung out and talked politics and America with the members of the Amoeba that weren't preparing to sing at a late night Obama fundraiser, which is where we went next, as the Connotations were performing. Their set was pretty great tonight, and except for one song that was still a little rough, everyone sang well. I actually really liked the band that performed before them as well, called the Primate Fiasco. Psychedelic Dixieland... yeah. Who knew that "Black Hole Sun" would translate so well? Gonna have to keep an eye out for them, they were good.
and now it's damned late. I need to fall over.

It really doesn't feel like Sunday
Oct. 12th, 2008 01:47 pmWell another milestone passed! I went out today all by me onesies and had a nice little hour and a halfish expedition into the wilds of downtown. I was originally just gonna pick up presents for
sundart, but it turned into a trip to the bank and to CVS for cards, and a chat with Gypsy Heart Sasha and picking up a couple of extra little presents for
morlock, as his stuff won't get here until tomorrow or Tuesday. All in all, slightly too much money well spent, and since it was a GORGEOUS fall day out there, I enjoyed the walk and the fresh air and such.
And now there are geeks in the living room here to play Rock Band. Time to be sociable for a bit!
