Adventures with Dr. Lady Cutie Troublemaker

Life is in flux BIG TIME these days. I want to keep in touch with all of my peeps. The Internet is this beautiful thing. I can move to a brand new city and still stay in easy, near-daily contact with the people I love. When I feel connected to the people in my life that matter, I am unstoppable!

Pretty Ladies!

Michelle, Sunitha, and Poornima. OK, so they are a bit yellow. I still love this picture. It’s from last night. I made pasta and a super-tasty dessert (vanilla and ginger ice cream with strawberries, crushed ginger snaps, and shavings of milk chocolate on top). Afterwards, we played the Pop Culture Trivial Pursuit game. Fun times! I’m really gonna miss my peeps when I move, and I move so very soon!Posted by Hello

Hey Mr. Grumpy Gills… You know what you gotta do when life gets you down? Just keep swimming. Just keep swimming swimming swimming. What do we do? We swim, swim, swim. OH HO HO How I love to swim. When you WAAAAAANNTTT to swim, you want to swim. 

Uh oh. I think I’m Mr. Grumpy Gills. And I’m supposed to be Dory, Dory who suffers from short-term memory loss. Man, that’s familiar! Wait. What was I saying?

Gomez, Birdy’s Last Night

By Abby at 1:14 am on Monday, August 2, 2004

Saw Gomez again last night. I can’t remember if this is the third or fourth time I’ve seen them. I’ll have to check my ticket stub folder to be sure. Gomez kicked ass, as per usual. After an adequate but fairly dull opening act (The Thrills), the announcer said that Gomez could not make it and that the Gomez cover band, Harpoon, would be playing instead. This was, of course, a silly lie for shits and giggles.

I was a nerd and copied down the play list. Here’s what it said:

  • Nothing (Nothing is Wrong)
  • Trombone (Love is Better Than a Warm Trombone)
  • Do One (Do One)
  • Catch (Catch Me Up)
  • Free (Free to Run)
  • Ping (Ping One Down)
  • Gun (In Our Gun)
  • Breeze (Here Comes the Breeze)
  • 5/Yellow (I think this is a Super Furry Animals cover, only because this lady next to me said so.)
  • There (There It Was)
  • Fill (Fill My Cup)
  • Last (I think this is a Monkees cover, but I’m sick of trying to find out which one!)
  • B.Y.L.B.H. (Bring Your Lovin’ Back Here)
  • Silence (Silence)
  • Arrested (Get Myself Arrested)
  • Donkey (I always see this on their play list and always immediately forget what song it was they played. I know I know it, probably every word. I’m too tired to get to the bottom of this right now!)
  • Piccadilly (Whippin’ Piccadilly)

I put a sign next to the play list before they came out that said “Play California.” It’s one of my very favorite Gomez songs, and they never play it. So mid-way into the set, I pointed my sign out to Tom. He told me, “You don’t understand. It’s very complicated. And we’re just Harpoon, the Gomez cover band.” Talking to the band when you’re up front may be cool, but hearing “California” would have been way cooler, but that’s just me.

As I said, I’m a bit beat, so no real detailed review. Just wanted to share some pictures and the joy. I heart Gomez! 😀

Ears

By Abby at 9:38 pm on Thursday, July 29, 2004

After my post about my friends, I posted some pictures of friends. I just was looking and noticed that I am wearing my cat ears in 2/3 pictures! It was a Halloween costume from years ago, but it was certainly a worthwhile purchase!
