Photo dump

I came across these pics today, and thought I would share them with you.

Before I do, let me tell you that I am currently mute.

Way to much karaoke will do that to you. Last night, I totally blew out my voice somewhere in between “sweet child o’ mine” and “piece of my heart”. Thanks again for going with me, Laura B.

I think Dale kind of likes that I can’t speak. He told me I am acting like how a normal wife should…all silent and what not. My fists still work, though, so he better watch it before I ugly up his mug.

ON WITH THE SHOW.

Last Friday, we went to a happy hour party.

Cody and Marna were there. Looks like Cody has his eye on the prize.

I had to come in to clean up the situation.

Marna was grateful. Oh, yeah….I dress like a man now (and you thought it was Halloween).

Josh was there as well. This was taken right before we broke out into a fight. It was all in fun. Plus, Josh had taken both whiskey and tequila shots thus rendering him a bit psycho. I had neither shot, but do not need the devils poison to turn to such a state.

There was this giant spider hanging out with us. Pretty awesome.

In case you were wondering, that is Josh on my couch with the lonestar beer box taped around his leg. You can thank Lee for that one.

30 is the new 21 (part 3)

On the walk back to our car, Rachel spotted this sweet ass ride and had to strike a pose.

We make it to Josh’s place only to step in and say hi to everyone before returning to the Peacock located next door.

Lee and Rachel as the walk to the bar.

Look, a Peacocktail.

This is what I look like when I am listening to somebody telling me about their shirt.

Here’s the church, here’s the steeple. Open it up, and see all the people!

It’s getting near closing time.

One more quick photo before the race begins.

I Apologize for the fuzzy photo’s. Lee forgot the flash.

Rachel and I thought it would be a good idea for her to jump in this abandoned shopping cart so that I could push her around.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

What fun!

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

What did you say? There are two abandoned shopping carts?

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Let’s Race! But not before Rachel get’s the hell pinched out of her arm. See it there, in between the shopping carts?

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

This was taken either right before or right after the big pinch.

Josh was my driver

And Dale was Rachel’s

That is the best photo ever!

I am not sure who one, but that does not really matter.

Helping a sister out, even thought my dress is all bunched up from the cart experience.

And there is the bruise. Imagine what that sucker looks like now that it has had time to settle in.

So there you have it. Rachel’s 30th birthday was a blast!

Things at the Red Eyed fly continued to go well. There were many pretty ladies packing the joint. At one point Josh Johnson said, “what, is there a super model convention going on?”

Lee indulged in many adult beverages and then snuck up on people.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Even though I tried to be nice to him, Lee began to degrade me.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

I swear, he insulted me at least one time every 5 minutes.

That’s ok. I know he loves me.

Mostly, we just hung out on that damned couch and made each other laugh

Charlie says, “I love me some lonestar!”

Dale ended up getting a kiss from the birthday girl

And it was time to go to our next location

but not before we had supper. (oh, by the way...operation skinny witch took a major hit. It's cool, I am back on the saddle big time tomorrow.)

Tune in next time for the exciting conclusion, featuring shopping cart races.

30 is the new 21 (part 1)

Yesterday, we celebrated Rachel’s 30th birthday and oh did we have some fun!

While Dale, Charlie, Lee and Josh were enjoying the Bob Dylan concert at Stubbs, Rachel and I were at the Peacock enjoying some Peacocktails.

Because Josh lives right next to the Peacock, we thought it would be a good idea to park at his hose (which is on east 6th), have a drink at the bar and then call a cab to take us downtown.

Bad Idea. All the people that came in for ACL took up all of the cabs. We waited for over an hour (and three more drinks) before a cab finally came and got us. In the meantime, we were propositioned a few time by fellas driving by as we were standing near the street waiting for the cab. Yeah, not so nice.

Still, it was an affirmation that these 30 year old broads still got it!!
I am soooo kidding.

Moving on…

Rachel and I finally got to the Red Eyed Fly and met up with the boys.

The following is a series of couch pictures

There is something about going to the Red Eyed Fly after a concert at Stubbs. It’s a tradition.

After we took all of those photos of us on the couch, I asked the group “where is my beer?”

Rachel said “It’s in your hand!”

Then took this picture of my shocked laughter

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Hmm, “shocked laughter”. I like the sound of that.

Oh, wait…here is another couch picture

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

No flash.

I have a million pics to show you. This is going to be spread out in one or two more blogs. Trust me, you will like them.

I leave you with this, for now.

What in the hell

During my lunch hour today, I noticed that I missed a call from Colin. Now Colin is not one of those people that just calls to chat or to tell you that they were thinking about you. His calls come with a purpose. Knowing this, I decided to call him back immediately.

Unfortunately, he was the bearer of bad news. He informed me that the White Stripes had canceled their Austin shows.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Nooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I knew it was too good to be true!! I Friggin’ knew it!

In my time of anger, I took some frustration out on Colin. I believe it is called “anger displacement” or something of the like. I told him: “I hate you”, and “I hope you get syphilis”.


Colin is a dear friend, and he understood that I needed to vent.

Still, I would like to tell Colin that I don’t hate him and that I really do not want him to get the syphilis.

I had to call Dale and Rachel and break the news to them. That sucked. Dale told Lee about the cancellation. Lee is a trooper, though, and he is going to come to Austin this weekend regardless. Rock Star!!!

I am still pissed about this. Seriously pissed.

Sinusitis


Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

I have a damned sinus infection. Particularly, I feel the pain in my frontal and ethmoid sinus cavities. It sucks.

These infections tend to last for a week, at least. Mine started on Friday. I am fighting it with water, pomegranate juice (for the antioxidants), vitamins, Dayquil sinus, ibuprofen (for the pain), mentholated nasal strips, the neti pot, and good old steam treatments.

Sinus infections are not contagious, so I will be going to work tomorrow. I will rely on the Dayquil and ibuprofen to alleviate the symptoms. It won’t be fun, but I can do it.

I got to get better for the upcoming White Stripes show.

There is NO WAY I am missing that one.

In other news….

A very happy birthday wish goes out to Bean. Some of you may know her as “Laurie”.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Happy Happy Birthday, may all your dreams come true

Happy happy birtyday, from all of us to you

HEY HEY!

Oh, one more thing…

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Jess, I will be thinking of you on Tuesday.
