Hello to all of you on the list. This right here is my second post for the list. I'm not much of talker when it comes to these lists so I just sit on the wayside and lurk until something strikes my fancy. But to tell you all the truth nothing really has, just a report on things in my neck of the woods.
First off I would like to say a giant HELLO to all the nice folks I met and the Detroit and Chicago shows. I didn't get to any of the meetups sad to say but I was pretty exhausted from the travels, drinking with theater actors before the show and a few other little incidents that involved Vicadin. The shows were great though, Chicago being one of the best shows I've seen in ages. Definetly brought a smile to this face and I almost tapped my feet if I hadn't been smooshed into the railing of the Congress theater. Thank goodness for the Toronto Twins next to me to make me feel a bit lighter in my shoes. I also copped an accidental feel on one of them as Stu asked me to help them up over the rail until he found an much easier and safer route. I did thank him though...hehehe...Bad me! All in all it was a weekend to remember...cheers to that.
I know I won't get a straight up answer on this one but it's a question that has been haunting man since the dawn of slacks. What is it with Girls?? I know there isn't anything you can say but they are perplexing this boy. Example....I met a great girl(lets call her Erin, I DO) about a month ago and was swept.....she was cute as a button and funny and actually had a taste in music(unlike most of the Chicagoland suburban tarts that I always seem to run into). We got on great the first time and it looked like things were going OK and another meet up was in order. Over the weekend was this supposed other meet up or DATE...ick i hate that word. Oh and to make it easier on the both of us shy kids we had chaperones of some sort. The only thing this supposed girl did the whole night was face the other direction of the rest of us and utter a sentence or two...only when spoken too of course. I was completely shattered, I had nearly married this girl in a dream two weeks ag! o an! d in an instant became a widower. So needless to say I'm a bit on the sad side here but I shall persevere until I casually stumble into the next apple of my eye. Sorry to bore you with that...it's not quite worth writing a screen play for since there was no hollywood ending but a good vent on my part is in order here from time to time.
Other than that I'm just dealing with mortality issues and how am I gonna get off work for the Jeff Tweedy shows in June. Whats a boy to do? EEK...just a tad of good news. I got my income tax check today from the Uncle Sam guy so I can start making my plans to go to the UK and visit my friend in Sheffield. Yahoo for me!! Enough about me. HOPe your all having enjoyable days and nights where ever you are. Bye Bye
