I don't get out much

Dudes! I did indeed perform a karaoke version of Danzig's "Mother" last night at the birthday party of the lovely Lady Mags. And there is a SLIGHT chance I may have been just very, very bad rather than terrible. A few people told me I nailed it, but those people were (a) my friends, and (b) drunk.

It WAS actually very fun and much less painful than I thought it would be, partly because everyone was so nice and drunk, and partly because it was with a LIVE BAND. How awesome an idea is that? They play the songs (they're REALLY good, too) and provide the lyrics and you sing! So wow, enjoyable karaoke! SHOCKING.

I am only sorry we ran out of time before I could bust out Black Flag's "Rise Above". (I'm not really sorry.)(But I totally would have done it if there'd been time.)

I did not take photos but if any show up, I'll let you know. (Karla has posted a few, but mercifully, I am not in any of them.)

Today it's back to reality, and by reality I mean piles and piles of dirty laundry and dishes and assorted other crap. The weather is intermittently grey and ooky. The boy child is playing computer games, DH is preparing for yet another week-long business trip, and the girl and I have big plans to watch this week's TiFauxed episode of Project Runway and then some annoying Alvin and the Chipmunks video that is sure to have me running for the liquor cabinet. Homemade chicken-fried steak for dinner!

It's all good.

Alvin and the Chipmunks are not allowed in my house. Neither are the Disney Country Bears except the one that has Bonnie Raitt's voice. Anyways, besides that one, they all creep me out. Alvin and the Chipmunks bring up particularly bad childhood flashbacks.

You ABSOLUTELY nailed it. NO QUESTION.

Every I've ever told has been shocked that I detest Alvin and his fellow rodents. I'm honestly baffled that Jack Bauer has never used this tactic to get suspects to talk.

Now, if you'd told us you'd performed a drunken karaoke version of Alvin and the Chipmunks, we REALLY would've been impressed.
