mo music
We took a trip into the city to see my cousin Jake perform. His band was 1st to take the stage — at 9:30 PM! I felt so old thinking about how tired I’d be because of it. Seriously though, Jake’s rock band put on a great show. They were followed by no 1 but 2 reggae bands that were equally awesome. Even better, the band from the islands is one that BoBo likes. Yeah, mom made the Cool List last night.
After some wine, a beer, and breathing in a bit of secondhand smoke, I was feeling pretty relaxed. My sways finally morphed into a somewhat dance-like movement which, I think, may have actually been in time to the music. I really didn’t care at that point. I was simply enjoying myself. Oh, and when a random stranger said I was “Hot,” I just laughed, thanked him, and looked over at my date who was just returning from the bar yet. He, by the way, was pretty hot himself.
Did I mention dinner? It was absolutely awesome. The night was fun beyond belief.
Marvelous Mariachis
On Cinco de Mayo, YaYa and I got the pleasure of joining a few wonderful people in the celebration. We were treated to mexican food, margaritas, and marvelous mariachis.
Curiously Strong
When the alarm sounds at o’dark thirty, and I can’t stomach my morning coffee, I reach for something curiously strong. It’s a feeble attempt to both wake me up and give me just enough energy to get through a morning spinning class.
Did it work?
Cops & Robbers
Tonight, there was much chasing and screaming going on in my house.
Conflict was starting among the boys, who couldn’t agree on which game to play. Two of them wanted to play Cops & Robbers but the other did NOT. Apparently, he’s always getting stuck being the cop.
In comes Juls. Being the peace keeper that I am, I agreed to not only play the game, but to be the cop.
So…the item (a bottle of Elmer’s Glue) is stolen and the 3 little robbers take off running for their hide outs upstairs. And I set out to find the little thieves…
