Sinister: bingo ink polaroid

Here's one of me, Maria and Ursula playing indie bingo last night
at Limbo coffeeshop on Avenue A.  The prizes on offer include a
Las Vegas T-shirt, the new Elliot Smith CD and a copy of Ink 
Polaroids.  Maria grabs the little book and waves it at me-"I know
which prize you want!"  I get set up, put my pennies in neat little
stacks and find myself regretting I didn't bring a good luck charm
for the table.  Also find myself knocking the table with my knuckle
when I wait for one number: I'm becoming my grandmother, fast.

After the bingo we head up to a bar which generously serves drinks
two-for-price of one, Ladies Only.  The bartender is v.cute, according
to Ursula, in a 1985 fashion.  We listen to a Jesus+Mary chain song,
a Psychedelic Furs number, the bartender listens to our cheap-boyfriend
woes with sympathy.  

Last stop is to see a band, Elf Power;  saw them last week + loved them.
Tonight they're a few members short and go for all rockin' numbers, they
even open with Eno's Needles in the Camels Eye, which makes my night.
(As does winning the Ink Polariods with "O sixty-four", of course).
