Cake or Death
Headed to Klair’s after work for dinner. Found the babes (babes = the 4 ladies living at Babehaus) in the kitchen cleaning corn and chopping veggies. Klair was in the backyard dousing the grill with lighter fluid and dropping in little bits of flaming paper in an attempt to get it started. Two [...]Tags: babes
The Songs Still Remind Me
During my drive to work today, rocking out to The Fullblast, a wave of nostalgia came over me. Memories of local shows flooded my mind.

We’ll bring the house down
Had dinner with my girlfriends last night. Two of them are dating dudes in touring bands, so it’s refreshing to get together and talk about boys and sex all night. (Or the lack there of) Lindsey’s man is also in Canada so we shared our hatred of time zones and expensive phone calls. They [...]Saturday
Spent the day sitting in the gazebo with my feet up reading Alice Sebold’s Lucky while it poured all around me. I watch the rain spit circles in the pool and the glossy spots of water inch closer on the deck. I love sitting outside in the rain on a hot day. At one point I ... [...]Tags: day off
