Ladies Rooms

Lets just start by saying this certainly isn’t a den of ladylike behavior. I’m not going to go into what I just observed, except for the fact it left me feeling super uncomfortable.

Anyways, I’m wondering: If there are 4 stalls:

[1]  [2]  [3]  [4]

Which stall get used most, least??

 im gonna say 2 is used the least and 1 is used the most.  I don’t know.  I’m just going by what I would do.

I just posted that pretty tree, and now I am going to mess it up with bathroom talk:  I always go for the stalls nearest the wall (1 and 4).  That way, I am less likely to be next to someone who’s taking it to the next level, if you know what I mean…

Time for another installment of, "How I Know It's About To Be 'My Time'"

Yesterday, I sent an email from my work account to “the girls” letting them know that I was going to be making some home improvements in the next few months, and that I wanted to have them all over for dinner so I could get their opinions.  As of today at 2:30, I hadn’t gotten one response (atypical for this group), so I sent an email that said “Hello?”  At 3:30, still nothing, so I sent a message that said, “Ok…curious as to why no one responded to this…just so we’re clear, I am not asking you to do manual labor!  Just come to my house, eat, and talk to me!!” (Crazy, I know).  At 4:00, I called Emily, since we had talked about the dinner the day before, and she said she was in.  She said that she was confused, because everyone had responded.  Ha!  She then forwarded me all 6 emails!  Apparently, something is going on with my work address, so I didn’t get any of them.

In short, I’m a little volatile this week.  Ah, hormones…

Everyone has there own remedy for hangovers. For some its the greasy morning bar $2 breakfast. For others its an Eggo ice cream sandwich. For me its otter pops and over medium eggs on sourdough toast. Does anyone else have a ‘so-called’ cure for the mind numbing pain that is a hangover?

mcdelicious (NOT BREAKFAST) and a huge fountain soda.  the soda is the key.

My dad always said to take 2 aleve and a 500mg vitamin C (this is the hard part) while you’re still drunk.  He then launched into a long and complicated explanation of how vitamin C blocks alcohol’s “bad” pathway to the brain and sends it down the “good” one (his explanation was brilliantly scientific, but it was a long time ago, and I can’t remember the details).  Anyway, IT WORKS.  I have not had a hangover since!

Mystery Solved

Many thanks to everyone for trying to educate me!

This is St. Anthony. You can learn more about why he holds the Baby Jesus here http://www.americancatholic.org/Messenger/Jun2000/Anthony.asp.

He is a good saint to know for several reasons. If you ever loose something say a prayer to him and you will find it! And if you ever want to sell a house buy a small St. Anthony statue and bury it in your front yard and your house will sell.

Saints are no joke!

Ha! I can’t believe I missed this one! No kidding, I thank St. Anthony every time I find something (usually a shoe or my keys). Thanks Molly, for helping me further my religious education! (you rock too)

My review of the Boston/Styx concert

I will start with Styx (and keep this as brief as possible).  First of all, I love Tommy Shaw.  Seeing him was the highlight of their performance for me (that and the Renegade encore).  The other guy, James Young, who is apparently referred to as “The Godfather of Styx” is pretty crazy looking, and he makes some strange faces.  Overall, they did a good job, and surprisingly, I recognized every song they played.  I was very sad that they didn’t play Mr. Roboto, but I didn’t really expect them to.  I imagine it’s pretty embarrassing for them, and DDY probably has some crazy copyrights.  The new guy on keyboard, Lawrence Gowan, was pretty interesting, and enjoys spinning his keyboard around (it was on a swivel) and playing with his hands behind his back.  Ok, done.  On to Boston!

Well, first of all, there are lots of new members to report.  The only “super original” member was Tom Scholz.  Next in seniority is Gary Pihl, on guitar.  Then, there was Michael Sweet, on lead vocals and guitar, Jeff Neal on drums, and the lady bass player, Kimberley Dahme (quite busty…sorry, I had to say it).  My favorite part of this story is Tommy DeCarlo, who they brought in for lead vocals.  He is certainly no Brad Delp, but he was definitely entertaining.  If you don’t know his story, here it is:  he was an average joe, working at the Home Depot, who was a huge Boston fan.  He recorded videos of himself singing Boston songs, and even wrote a song after Delp’s suicide last year, which caught the attention of Tom Scholz, who asked him to join the tour.  Please click the Tommy DeCarlo link above and check him out before you read on.  Ok, so the best thing about the whole concert (besides the encore of Foreplay/Long Time) was watching Tommy DeCarlo perform.  First of all, he came out in a Boston t-shirt, tucked in to a pair of dad jeans, with white tennis shoes.  He has a 90s cream puff hairstyle and a goatee.  He seemed quite out of place relative to the others, who had the old, skinny cracked out rocker look (which I enjoy).  The reason he was so fun to watch is that he is a huge nerd, and did moves like the “thumbs up,” the “come and get it” and the “you, yeah you” repeatedly. He was very excited, and at one point, even pointed to his Boston shirt, as if he couldn’t believe he was actually on stage with Boston (which he probably can’t).  Anyway, it was not unlike watching Carlton in the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air trying to dance with Will’s friends.  His vocals were pretty good, but the new group did not manage to capture the magic of the original.  I just kept waiting for that awesome moment, and it never came.  I was, however, super impressed with Tom Scholz.  His organ playing (Hammond M-3 according to my dad) made me very happy;  I love that guy.  P.S.  Tom also gave a shout-out to The Home Depot, because they are “lending” DeCarlo to Boston.  Ha!

Ok, that’s it.  Hopefully, it wasn’t too boring (if you made it this far).
