Guess what everyone?

The DeLorean is coming back, baby!

Oh yes, I totally want one

Keith! I know you are busy this weekend and tonight, but if you want to skype this weekend and see my house and Halloween decorations just let me know.
You don't even have to talk I just thought it would be fun for you to see it or next weekend at the party.

See ya later.

now I'm sad you live so far away that I can never really see you. *tear*

Sorry I haven't posted in here yet, I just didn't really feel like it. The show was okay, but it was nothing to write home about. It was a small audience, but they were a great group of people. The band's sounded better, but then again, we've sounded worse.

Oh, and I'm upset with Pat again... Long story. I think I'll spaare you all the boring story for now. But because of him I once again have nothing to do on Halloween.

I know what you can wear to the door to frighten little children away Cheeks.


































GWAR COSTUME!!!! \m/

Then on Halloween night you can go to downtown and prowl the streets giving the locals a bit of a fright. It could be legend.

p.s. See a man covered in blood with an alien on his junk is still butch while wearing fishnets. But I guess Frank N Furter proved that a long time ago...

Are you well enough for Open Mic night!? Have fun at Hard Times tonight I know you love Tuesdays. Try not to smack Pat even though he needs a swift kick in the ass. I kid.
Say "Hi" to all the girlies. Don't forget to play your hot ass off. Have a blast.

So I talked to partyboy briefly this morning to ask him who all these strangers are that come to our house when the parents aren't home. He was a little pissed I can tell. But whatever! I'm just asking a question. I'm sure I will be on the receiving end of some nastiness sometime soon. But when it happens this time I will be ready.
For some reason I'm subject to a nasty attitude and bitchiness that I don't deserve. (He wouldn't talk this way to our mother, nasty) Why? What did I ever do? My mom told me that I need to stand up to my brother and I'm going to. I may have to get nasty myself but I have to tell him that he can't talk to me that way anymore.

That's great! It certainly can't hurt. I was a member of match.com for 1 month a long time ago. It was too expensive, like 50.00 a month and I said fuck it! I wasn't attracted to any of my matches. I would write people about common interests and they totally ignored me. Some men frightened me because they were in my town and they knew the common places I visited and asked if I still went to those places. Stalker! Plus I didn't want to meet some 40 year old with 3 kids. No thank you! It's difficult to meet people online because you're strangers and it's a little awkward. It's almost like a blind date you never know what you're gonna get.

Yeah I would watch out for the Bieber girls and Twitards. >< It's a shame so many young people think that stuff is good. What do you mean they "don't read"???!? Do they say in their profile?

Yes, I mean they outright say "I don't read" right on their profile. It makes me sad

Hey Prowls.
I just realized what the date would be this weekend... They gonna have a Halloween theme at your gig? You guys dressing up at all?

BTW... I'd check-out okcupid.com. It's completely free and has some quality members. It's a really interesting sight with lots of cool features and allows you to take it as seriously or jokingly as you like.

Sounds like a good site; I may have to give it a peek. Thanks for the tip
And no, I don't think there's going to be a theme at the gig this Friday. Just another ordinary gig. But there's always the chance that the drunk 20-somethings will come in later on wearing slutty costumes. Remember, I got quite an eyeful over the winter from some chick who came in with a group all wearing stupid/slutty Christmas costumes. I certainly didn't mind her being there

I'm going to get myself something for lunch now, so I'll review last night's festivities later

Okay, so there a few layers of what happened at the Open Mic. There was some drama, there was some serious drama, but then everything got better after a while... I'll stick mostly to the good stuff

Once all the bullshit was over, it was another awesome night. We had more new musicians come out, we had dancers, and there was a lot of great music going on.
At the end of the night, we were playing with one of our new guitar buddies, and it got to be time for the last song. Instead of playing the standard Let's Get It On, Pat let the other guy decide the last song for us, and before I knew what was happening, we were playing Oye Como Va by Santana. It's been years since I played that one, so I was basically pulling it out of my ass as I went along. Luckily I hear it so much on the radio that I still basically knew it after all these years And let me tell you, I had an absolute blast playing it.

When I was packing up, this girl I hadn't seen came up to me and was telling me that she thought I was "shooper", as she put it. I think she was a little tipsy But there were a couple of things I couldn't quite make out... First was that I couldn't tell if she was there "with" someone, or if it was just a good friend helping her stay upright while walking around, and I also couldn't tell if she was trying to drunkenly come on to me or not. I'm really bad at that stuff
If a girl is too subtle, it goes right over my head, but if she's direct with it then I panic and don't know how to handle it, thus fucking it up for myself. But she said she'd come back next week, so I guess I'll find out then. Not that I noticed any spark right off the bat or anything, but it's always good to know exactly what their intentions are, or if there are any at all.

And just so you all know, I'm going to be out all day today, so I won't be able to post until later. I'm getting out of the house to avoid our cleaning lady, and then I'm going shopping for a new suit in the afternoon. Then I'm going to be gone from Friday afternoon to Sunday afternoon, unless I can hijack Ma's laptop. If I can, I'll be sure to drop in

OH! And there's something important (at least to me) that I have to share with you all, but I'll tell you later when I get a usable picture to go with the story

Mystery! Intrigue! Tell us tell us!!!

Cool. I've never had anything fitted either (besides a hat). lol

I'm still going to try to make it to the show but, I'm not sure how promising it looks. I'm kind of depending on a friend to go and drive because I have a chip in my windshield and a stiff sport suspension... Not a great combo for the city to avoid the windshield cracking. Also because, honestly, I really don't want to go by myself. Regardless, I'm gonna hound him tommorrow and see if we can make it.
How's the parking for this venue? I'm guessing random street/small lot???

I actually don't blame you for not wanting to go alone. And as for parking, you can try to find a place on the street, but there's actually a parking garage right around the corner that's something like $2 to use

Happy Halloween Cheeky!!

I found you some pics!


A suit! Well we have to see this. Is is for the wedding in Nov and then Bree's wedding?
Nice nice nice! Can't wait to see.

What's going on with me? I talked to Miss T and she said it's a no for this weekend. She has a lot of things to look forward to right now. Her holidays will probably be bananas and she doing pretty okay at the moment.
Today I'm working after a doctors appointment. Then tonight I don't know. Tomorrow I may go out and do some stuff. The hosts will be decorating the house and I'm not doing anything there. This is their gig now. But yeah I'm gonna sneak out and go to dancing. No one will even know I'm gone. Sunday I have to make a dip recipe for Halloween Monday. There is a competition at my work on who has the best dip/presentation. I'm thinking of using the artichoke dip in a sourdough bread bowl make to look like a pumpkin. It's gonna kick ass. THe winner gets a 50.00 gift card to who knows where?
I'm gonna win!!!!!!!! At least I think so.

I want you to have a great show tonight and the best possible weekend too.
Miss you tons! *huggles*
I was remembering a past Halloween I was actually visiting you, like 2 Halloweens ago. I think we saw Paranormal Activity 1. Fun times.

Thanks for the pics Especially Supergirl
Yes, the suit is for the wedding next month. And if I'm not part of the wedding party, then I will also wear it to Bree's wedding next year as long as I don't gain any weight
I'm sorry Tiana can't come to the party, but then I'm sure that you'll go out and have fun doing your own thing out of the house
Yeah, I remember seeing Paranormal Activity. We were almost late because we were at Cracker Barrell and didn't realize what time it was so we just snuch our dinner into the theater and ate during the movie I might be going to see Paranormal Activity 3 next weekend with a friend of mine. I hope she can make it because we both really want to see this movie and we haven't seen each other in a very long time

I would do super things to her

So we had a pretty great show Friday night, and we had an amazing guest sax player with us. As I was sitting there talking to her before the show, I realized that not only had we been playing together more than a decade ago, but that she and I had a much longer history together than me and anyone else in the band. Doc and Pat were absolutely floored by what she could do with her horn, and I was beyond thrilled to be playing with her again

And once again I am screwed for anything to do on Halloween. Obviously I can't do anything this weekend and no one will tell me if there's anything going on Monday. I was finally invited to not one but two parties for the first time in my life, and one of them got cancelled and I can't go to the other one for other reasons that I don't want to get into.
But at least I'll be going home tomorrow (or today, depending on when you read this).

What about you all? Do any of you have any fun Halloween plans this year?

Yes, I'm back now. What's even better is that I came home with a new pair of jeans and a belt Only problem is that I have to take the jeans to get hemmed on Tuesday with my new suit before I can wear them. It sucks being short

Yeah, the goggles picture is definitely one I plan on sharing soon, so thank you for not posting it yet I'll also have one or two more coming soon. And I promise that I'll be revealing that thing that I mentioned the other day

Well, it's late and it's cold as hell and I need a (nice, hot) shower, so I'm going to go for now. Have a good night everyone, and Happy Halloween

It's bigger than a breadbox
I've only captured three souls with it so far
It won't cause the 2012 apocalypse. We all know it's going to be caused by Chuck Norris punching right through Justin Bieber's ugly face and straight into the ground, thus breaking the earth in half. But it will be worth it... Oh yes, it will be worth it.
I've decided that I'm not going to take a picture of myself with said thing, so that'll make it easier. I'll have it up tomorrow before I leave for the gig, I promise

Sorry you didn't win the dip contest

Okay, so I've decided that I need a new Halloween Costume for next year. Damn kids these days just don't know who Jim Morrison is For those of you who don't know, Trick or Treating in my neighborhood isn't the traditional "kids randomly showing up at your house all night" thing. All the kids load up on a trailer and go for a hayride from house to house, so everyone comes in one big group and it's all over in a matter of minutes. So I donned my Morrison threads once again to hand out candy for a whopping five minutes earlier, and only a handful of the parents knew who I was. It's kind of sad, actually. Actually, Halloween in general in my hood is kind of sad I really need something more fun to do next year

So how was your Halloween, everyone? Who/What did you all do?

I didn't do anything last night for Halloween so don't feel bad. We only had a few little Trick or Treaters so we have tons of chocolate left over. Next year I'll make sure you have a proper time around Halloween. Costumes! Dress up! I owe you a top hat. ><. Oh no I didn't forget. Even though the wedding will be going on, Rocky Horror is a must. We have to go! And this time I won't try to kill you. It will be better.

And Cleopatra is beautiful. Way better than a real baby. You and your dad made the drum? How did you do it?

When you see Scotty's guitar tonight you should call it Le Big Mac ( in a French accent like Sam Jackson) instead of Royale, just to fuck with Pat.
