I have no idea why but I just haven't felt good the last day or so.... Its not really like I'm sick... Though my allergies are acting up a bit... I'm just tired and very lethargic and I have like no energy at all... Imay have a fever but I have no thermometer to check.... No clue whats going on with my body...
In other news... I made chicken n dumplings last night... Which meant a trip to the grocery store, peeling and chopping veggies, making dumplings, deboning a chicken and then cleaning up afterward... By the time it was all said and done it was like 10 o clock... And I'd already had dinner... Though I did have a lil bit of soup when it was done... I called the boys and Linz and let them all know about the plethora of soup at my place and that they were welcome to it.... I've already had 2 bowls today... hehehehe....
I got into a conversation with a neighbor last night about drag queens... How does one refer to a drag queen? Are they he's, she's, its? According to Nate in drag its she, and out of drag, he... But who knows if hes actually right, he doesn't hang out with drag queens....
Funny story... I was cutting Maggie's nails last night (she hates when I do that) and I was getting to her last paw and I was going to turn her around so I could get to it easier.... So I'm lifting her up and she starts wiggling around and I lose my grip on her... Then boom her entire weight comes down on my right eye, forcing my glasses askew and into my cheekbone... Holy crap I have never felt such pain... At least not in a while... So there was a lil bit of scrape from my glasses and I felt it swelling a lil.... So I went to put ice on it... Of course not having an ice maker I had to improvise with frozen food... So I ended up watching most of Rent with only one eye... When I finally went to bed, my cheek was red from the cold and under my eye was a bit sore but it hadnt swelled up anymore and there wasn't a bruise... I half feared waking up this morning to discover a black eye but that wasn't the case... Thank goodness... Its still a lil sore but the swelling's gone down...
I have a lil over an hour til I have to leave to go get mom at the airport and I still can't shake this tired feeling... Tonight Gilmore Girls premieres and its Mark's usual Tuesday night thing... I'm going but I don't know how long I'll last....
So yeah I have some stuff to do before I leave and I'm out of stuff to say so yeah....

So its been a while since I've posted.... Every time I have both the time and inclination simultaneously I don't... I've come to dread writing blogs for fear of who I may or may not offend, piss off and/or just in general make unhappy... And thats not cool... People are becoming entirely too damn sensitive in some cases... Having a keyboard in front of me and the anonymity of the internet in my favor could be misconstrued as ways to pretend I'm 'powerful' in some form or fashion.... I'm not I know I'm not and I'm fine with that and in general cool with my place in the world.... Sure I don't have a job right now, but I have good friends, good times, a sweet dog, my own place and a kick ass family.... Most of what I say in my blogs... I'd say to peoples faces... MOST... Not all.... There are things I've written that I've found out haven't been true and it was my mistake for posting or my opinions of people changed from what I may have written.... But for the most part I'm as brutally honest in person as I am on the internet... Though I've been trying to work on being more subtle with my honesty... Thats been a work in progress for years...
Anyway, on with the 'real' blog entry.... Which is the whole reason I'm posting a blog in the first place.... After like a week of not posting anything....
So all weekend I've found myself missing things about college... Before I missed simply the easiness of life in college... This weekend I've found myself thinking about people I met there, the town itself, places to eat, even the damn Walmart and itty bitty movie theater.... I've shocked the hell out of myself thinking that way this weekend... I NEVER thought I'd miss Clarksvegas... Let alone anything in it.... But I found myself wanting to kill something for a pizza stick from Dodge's and one of Wanda's "Be careful, honey..." 's Friday night.... Which led into thinking about Walmart and the Waffle House... And the fountain drinks at the Philips 66.... And the pizza at the Exxon.... And then tonight I asked the question... What would I do for an order of cinnamon sticks from Pizza Pro right now? You don't want to know the answer to that one.... I did actually go online and look up Pizza Pro and since the last time I checked there IS one in Houston (actually like 2 but the others out in Katy off Fry road...) about 20 minutes from my apartment... Yeah, guess what I'm having for dinner? lmao... And then I started thinking about alumni weekend... Which I thought was in October, but is actually in April... Oops... Then I started thinking about how much fun it would be if there was one weekend (whether it was alumni weekend or not) where we could all just get together and hang out like we used to.... Which led to lots of emails being sent to a lot of people I know that went to U of O.... The general idea was something like this...
(copied and pasted email I sent out)
I'm just thinking right now about this... I don't know if its actually a possibility or not since everyone is so spread out over the entire country and we all have responsibilities and things now...
I was just wondering what yall thought about a weekend where we could all get together somewhere where itd be a compromise for everyone for a weekend and just hang out and catch up and stuff?
I know U of O has a formal "Alumni Weekend'' in April but I dont know how many people plan on going to that yet... I'm just feeling out the idea of some place where all of us could meet and hang out and stuff, since we hadn't seen each other in a while...
Any opinions? Doubts?
Yeah so now I'm just awaiting any response.... I'm expecting a lot of you so crazy's and theres no way in hell we can get that done's.... But ya never know... There may be a managerial genius among my friends from college....
It'd be really cool if all my old friends, that had already graduated when I had to go back for a semester, and all my new friends, those that I started hanging out with that last semester, could all get together... I think they'd all have a blast.... But that sounds more like an alumni weekend at U of O thing or a wedding would have to be held to get that done.... Anyone want to get married so I can see all my friends? rofl..... Great reason to tie the knot right? Marry me, so I can hang out with my friends.... lmao...
Anywho I think I'm off to bed... I'm decked for some reason...
Later.

The Randy Rogers Band CD Release Party Review... I know you've all been dying to read it... Or something....
Thursday night... I'm out running errands and I get a rather frazzled sounding phone call that says I need to get to the Firehouse NOW (this is about 7 ish) if I want to be able to get in... Luckily I'd already printed my ticket off but I went ahead and rushed home, got ready and got there by 745... Met up with some friends and visited for a while before Randy Rogers (not Travis) came on about 1030 ish... I kept getting phone calls from people that had tried and failed to get in.... Turns out online ticket sales had sold out Thursday morning and they'd sold out at the door at like 730.... So the set list for Thursday was greatness... I forgot how much I absolutely positively adore the double R B... Hell I followed them around for like a month when the last CD came out, if that tells ya anything... So back to the set list... It seems like they did every other song off the CD and a nice mix of the older stuff... No Wendy and Chops didn't do his Waylon cover (I think its Only Daddy That'll Walk the Line) but he did sing part of a song he'd written that was on the CD... That made me
and a lil drool too.... 
I know I've sworn off musicians but like the song says... he could change my mind.... 
So the shows over and people are yelling.... The band comes back on and does this amazingly pretty sad song... (Whiskey) And the nights over with by 1 am.... After hanging out and visiting some more I head home.... But while on the way home, I have my window down and the sun roof open and I'm jamming to the new CD and this guy on a motorcycle (the crotch rocket kind not the cool Harley kind...) flips his visor up and tries to hit on me at a stop light.... This guy looked barely old enough to drink legally, hes on a crotch rocket and at 1 am hitting on a chick at a stop light... Wow.... Maybe I should have realized the whole weekend would be weird from that moment... But I don't have ESP so I didnt.....
Thursday night reminded me how much I miss the old days, hanging out with the ex behind the Icehouse.... Him, his friends, some beer and guitars... Those were some damn good times...
I do have a wee bit of a rant too... I'm sitting here and I'm trying to figure something out... Why isn't getting into a relationship as easy as it used to be? In college, you liked someone, they liked you, you'd hang out and do 'whatever'...
In high school it was pretty much the same thing... But here in "Adult World" its all kind of screwy.... You have to use the internet, dating sites, networking sites (like Myspace), bars or personal ads or network through friends (which usually ends up in bad blind dates in my experience...)... Its hard as hell to meet new people in a city the size of Houston... And even once you do meet someone its like you've both got so many barriers erected how the hell are yall ever supposed to get involved? Or much like my poor blind date yesterday (who called earlier and asked me to go out again, I politely declined) are still hung up on their ex's... Or have kids, which severely limits their ability to have relationships.... Or you do meet someone and you're into them and something happens that blows any shot you might have had of getting involved... (Trust, once broken is hard to repair...) Or you meet nothing but lunatics and mamas boys and guys that don't even know the meaning of the word fidelity.... At the rate I'm going I'm going to end up that crazy old lady with all the animals... I'm one dog closer to being that than I was at the beginning of the year.... lol.....
Thats it for now... The Dynamo game is about to come on so I have to jet.....
I'm seriously in 7th heaven having discovered I have the Fox Sports Soccer channel.... I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE me some soccer boys.....

I really want to blog about the Randy Rogers (or Randy Travis, however you want to call him....) show Thursday night but last night was too funny to NOT blog about... So I may do both nights I may just do last night..... Depends on how tired of writing I get....
So last night.... I was caught in a moment of weakness and on the spur of the moment went on a blind date... Even though I've sworn off those... So anyway, Nathan set me up with this guy and we met at Starbucks.... I drank a latte (why since I never drink coffee I don't know...) and all this guy could do was ramble on about his ex.... And his job.... I don't think he even would have noticed if I had fallen asleep the way I was tempted to... Sean called me at the previously agreed on 830 (about an hour of this guys company was all I thought I could take - by the way if the universe reads this, I'd like that hour of my life back please...) with a fake emergency (my grandmother being in the hospital was used this time....) and so I had to rush out... I came home and freshened up and then went to the Firehouse.... On the way there I get the weirdest phone call.... Its from my ex's new girlfriend.... I won't go into what was said but I think he may have met his match.... More power to them both....
So I get to the Firehouse a lil after 9 ish and run into a chick from kays and her friend that tried to hit on me at Blancos... Turns out its her bday and hes taking pics for the band... Then I see Jeremy and grab him and we go hang with the chick and her friend... There were some humorous moments involving mayo and Jack Ingram... Thats all I'm saying.... So anyway, Eric goes on about 930 ish... Jeremy and I move up to a table closer to the stage... Eventually the chickadee and her friend join us... The chickadee ends up hanging out with the table next to us more than us... I guess we weren't fun enough or getting drunk enough for her taste? She was the first one hurling in the bathroom at like 11 last night.... All I can say about her is that I'm glad I'm past that age/maturity level.... I was telling Jeremy, I didnt know about him but personally I like to remember my birthdays.... And I do for the most part... Anything I may forget is just my sucky memory...
So ANYWAY.... My phone starts going off like every 15 minutes of Eric's set....
First its Sean, making sure I'd gotten away from the blind date... Then it was Nathan who wanted to know how it went... Then the guy I'd been on the blind date with called, but I didnt pick up.... Then Nathan called me again cuz the guy had called him.... Then Sean again to invite me out to Kemah at like midnight.... And THEN the killer part of the night... THE EX CALLED ME!!! Shockingly sober.... He just wanted to know who had called me from his phone...
Needless to say I don't recall a lot of Erics set since I seemed to be outside most of the time.... But I did get to hear Relationships 101... And a shout out, which is always cool....
But the weirdness continued.... A couple of my neighbors showed up, with a couple of cute friends that had been over at their place BBQ ing earlier when I had walked Maggie....
Then I was just thinking about calling someone to make sure he was still coming to see Django and he walked in the door... Do I have ESP or something?
Then I was just hyper as heck.... Probably all the caffeine I'd had in the course of the night.... I was dancing around (which I rarely do, unless I'm hyper) and just being a nutball.... And while in new heels too... Today my feet are killing me but I'll live.....
I get to my car and suddenly I'm like totally drained... I feel myself crashing from the caffeine high I'd been on most of the night so I come home and call Sean to tell him I wont be able to make it out there.... Then I went to bed...
And I'm soooo not going to blog about the Randy Rogers show right now... Maybe later....

I heard this song for like the millionth time today but today it really struck me as appropriate... Ok and maybe I haven't heard it a million times since I've only had the CD since Thursday but thats beside the point.... The CD Just A Matter Of Time.... The band? Randy Rogers... And the song... The title track, Just a Matter of Time.... It sort of made me think of someone and a situation thats currently occurring...
Saw you again last night
I caught you catching my eye
I love to stare at you
Through the smoke and lights
I can see that I
See that I
Just wanna hold you
I just wanna know you
I just wanna spend the night wrapped up in you
Chorus:
But its all
Yeah, its all
Just a matter of time
And its all
Its just a matter of time
Don't care how long this takes
Cause baby, I can't wait
I can't wait fo ryou
To hold me
To know me
I just wanna spend the night wrapped up in you
Repeat Chorus
You're gonna wake up and find
Its just a matter of time
Until, you are mine
Cause its all
Yeah its all
Just a matter of time
Yeah its all
Yeah, its all just a matter of time
Yeah its all
Yeah its all just a matter of time
I saw you again last night.....
But I could be wrong, it may not be a matter of time.... It may be something that never happens... I just feel optimistic about it...

I feel like this should have like a Dave Matthews Band title... "So Much To Say..." or something.... Cuz its true... I haven't blogged since like Saturday and theres been a bunch of stuff thats happened since then I wanted to blog about but never felt the urge to blog at the same time I was near a computer.... Mainly stuff thats happened in the last 2 or 3 days....
First of all.... Tuesday.... Was INSANE... I was up by 7, walked the dog and got ready to go.... I got to the interview (that had been scheduled Monday night) right at 9 (it was at nine) and spent almost 2 hours getting interviewed and testing.... The place is a temp agency so the testing was just to see where I was with typing speed and how good I was with Excel.... By the time I finally left and went to Whataburger for lunch and then home it was getting close to noon... So I hurried through lunch (they got my order wrong, darn them....) and walking the dog and the lady from the temp agency calls to prep me for my interview with this company over in Greenway Plaza at 2.... She pretty much made me feel like I was back in high school... Which is ridiculous.... But she did a good job of prepping me and letting me know what to say and not say and she even went as far as to tell me how to wear my hair.... (according to her there was a really stricy dress code - jackets and slacks or skirts, no perfume, no dangly earrings, and no low cut shirts...) Linz dropped Bailey off while I was on the phone with her, so while they played I finished lunch and got ready to go.... I got to the building where the office was located (2 whole floors of the place) at exactly 10 til 2, like the lady at the temp agency said.... Turns out the place was all into CSI type stuff, which was kind of interesting... They investigate why accidents and stuff like that happen... Mainly car accidents but they have a division for just about everything from Oil and Gas to Environmental to a Catastrophy team... They also have offices all over the U.S. including one in McAllen, one in San Antonio, one in Dallas, one in Austin, and one in Corpus.... So I had my main interview (for a receptionist position - they have 3 of them.... Crazy....) and it only took like 10 minutes.... I think she liked me, but I was a bit nervous so I may have spoken too quickly.... She was also very direct which I liked.... So then when we were done she took me to meet another woman who I talked to for about 20 minutes.... By the time I got in my car it was about 240.... I called the temp agency lady to check in and then went home.... All the errands and stuff I was GOING to run, got totally thrown out the window... Then I went to Mark's thingy Tuesday night.... It was rather dead... Then the Chickadee and a friend showed up... I ended up leaving at like midnight and coming home to walk the dog and go to bed.... I woke up to a text from a friend who had gone to kays after another thingy... darnit man...
So Wednesday.... Not much happened... I ran some errands....
In the process of doing that I had a bit of an accident.... I was looking for a pair of black sandals since Maggie chewed up my favorite pair so I was going to Shoe Cents over by TJ Maxx..... I saw some hot cops in the parking lot, and even though I didn't feel cute I figured I'd get closer to get a better look.... So as I'm zigging and zagging through the parking lot I fail to look down and before I know it I just slide down... I don't fall, I literally SLIDE.... Onto my left leg and hip... Into a puddle, which looked more like a lake, of water, dirt and who knows what else.... My capris are soaked from the left hip to the left knee.... and my feet look disgusting... Luckily I pull down my shirt far enough to cover most of the wetness and clean my feet off on my pants enough I feel ok to go into the store... I got some strange looks... But whats new there? So I dont find anything and I discovered I've scraped my ankle a lil.... (and today my left arm hurts... Like a muscle ache and it sucks cuz I can't fully extend my left arm without it hurting a lil....) So I go to mom's and check her mail.... I got most of my netflix movies and I found out I've got health insurance again... Whoo hoo... Thats a serious load off my mind... I've never been without it and I've just been praying the last 2 months to NOT have anything bad happen... Sure I had to pay full price for my Nexium once but thats ok, at least I got it.... So then I bought my ticket for tonights Randy Rogers show and printed it off before coming back to the apartment....
So I get to Blanco's Wednesday night about 930 (after running into my neighborhood hot cop - IN UNIFORM.... Yeah I was drooling a lil...) or so and run into a chick I know and a friend of her's that I'd met at Kays.... He introduces me to this hottie in an A and F shirt... Turns out he was from Mississippi and had a lovely accent to go with it.... Poor thing was chickadee's DD for the night... I felt so bad for him about that.... So I ended up hanging with them and a few other friends who showed up later on.... Then about 130 or so I went home, walked the dog and eventually went to bed....
Any opinions? Ideas? Complaints about how long this is? lol....
Yeah I'm done now...

First of all.... Tuesday.... Was INSANE... I was up by 7, walked the dog and got ready to go.... I got to the interview (that had been scheduled Monday night) right at 9 (it was at nine) and spent almost 2 hours getting interviewed and testing.... The place is a temp agency so the testing was just to see where I was with typing speed and how good I was with Excel.... By the time I finally left and went to Whataburger for lunch and then home it was getting close to noon... So I hurried through lunch (they got my order wrong, darn them....) and walking the dog and the lady from the temp agency calls to prep me for my interview with this company over in Greenway Plaza at 2.... She pretty much made me feel like I was back in high school... Which is ridiculous.... But she did a good job of prepping me and letting me know what to say and not say and she even went as far as to tell me how to wear my hair.... (according to her there was a really stricy dress code - jackets and slacks or skirts, no perfume, no dangly earrings, and no low cut shirts...) Linz dropped Bailey off while I was on the phone with her, so while they played I finished lunch and got ready to go.... I got to the building where the office was located (2 whole floors of the place) at exactly 10 til 2, like the lady at the temp agency said.... Turns out the place was all into CSI type stuff, which was kind of interesting... They investigate why accidents and stuff like that happen... Mainly car accidents but they have a division for just about everything from Oil and Gas to Environmental to a Catastrophy team... They also have offices all over the U.S. including one in McAllen, one in San Antonio, one in Dallas, one in Austin, and one in Corpus.... So I had my main interview (for a receptionist position - they have 3 of them.... Crazy....) and it only took like 10 minutes.... I think she liked me, but I was a bit nervous so I may have spoken too quickly.... She was also very direct which I liked.... So then when we were done she took me to meet another woman who I talked to for about 20 minutes.... By the time I got in my car it was about 240.... I called the temp agency lady to check in and then went home.... All the errands and stuff I was GOING to run, got totally thrown out the window... Then I went to Mark's thingy Tuesday night.... It was rather dead... Then the Chickadee and a friend showed up... I ended up leaving at like midnight and coming home to walk the dog and go to bed.... I woke up to a text from a friend who had gone to kays after another thingy... darnit man...
So Wednesday.... Not much happened... I ran some errands....
In the process of doing that I had a bit of an accident.... I was looking for a pair of black sandals since Maggie chewed up my favorite pair so I was going to Shoe Cents over by TJ Maxx..... I saw some hot cops in the parking lot, and even though I didn't feel cute I figured I'd get closer to get a better look.... So as I'm zigging and zagging through the parking lot I fail to look down and before I know it I just slide down... I don't fall, I literally SLIDE.... Onto my left leg and hip... Into a puddle, which looked more like a lake, of water, dirt and who knows what else.... My capris are soaked from the left hip to the left knee.... and my feet look disgusting... Luckily I pull down my shirt far enough to cover most of the wetness and clean my feet off on my pants enough I feel ok to go into the store... I got some strange looks... But whats new there? So I dont find anything and I discovered I've scraped my ankle a lil.... (and today my left arm hurts... Like a muscle ache and it sucks cuz I can't fully extend my left arm without it hurting a lil....) So I go to mom's and check her mail.... I got most of my netflix movies and I found out I've got health insurance again... Whoo hoo... Thats a serious load off my mind... I've never been without it and I've just been praying the last 2 months to NOT have anything bad happen... Sure I had to pay full price for my Nexium once but thats ok, at least I got it.... So then I bought my ticket for tonights Randy Rogers show and printed it off before coming back to the apartment....
So I get to Blanco's Wednesday night about 930 (after running into my neighborhood hot cop - IN UNIFORM.... Yeah I was drooling a lil...) or so and run into a chick I know and a friend of her's that I'd met at Kays.... He introduces me to this hottie in an A and F shirt... Turns out he was from Mississippi and had a lovely accent to go with it.... Poor thing was chickadee's DD for the night... I felt so bad for him about that.... So I ended up hanging with them and a few other friends who showed up later on.... Then about 130 or so I went home, walked the dog and eventually went to bed....

Meredith,
I am more sorry than you could ever know for what it was I wrote. (for those that don't know - don't worry...) I wrote that blog after drinking and I shouldn't have been near a computer. I'm sorry for hurting your feelings. I only wrote what I felt at the time. And the way I interpreted things was wrong I admit. It was just things from my point of view, as screwed up as that may be.... I did not mean to imply you were in any way shape or form trampy, or trying to hook up with anyone... I had no idea that so many people would get so heated up over a simple blog... The guy I was talking about was drunk so I only really believed about half of what he said, because knowing the way some drunks are about 50 percent's usually a lie... I was just gaging how he treated other girls in comparison to me and you were there... I'm sorry for making you feel like less of a person and hurting your feelings... I admire you, in fact and feel badly that I hurt you. It was not meant to look like that at all... Again I'm sorry and hope you can see your way clear to forgiving me.
Ali :0)

Just a warning, I'm listening to Blue October bootlegs... For those that know me, I tend to get deep when I listen to em...
I went to the Palace tonight and discovered other reasons I didn't like it... They don't have Smirnoff Ice... And they have random drunk chicks dancing... I can't dance but their dancing made mine look like I was a professional or something... lol.... So I stayed there an hour or so... I think I was the only one paying any attention to Kyle... Then when I left I saw the sign out front said that Kyler Redd was playing tonight... i had to call Chelle and tell her... So I went to Wendy's for a snack and then Walgreens for some hair dye (I'm going blond again this weekend)... Then I hit Blanco's... Just long enough for a drink, cigerette (Sean left his pack in my car, he may never get it back... hehehe...) and a cute guy playing guitar.... I think his name was Justin... Whats up with my thing for Justins that play guitars? I have no idea... Anyway so I only recognized one or 2 people, but not really well enough to hang with them... So I came home... RIGHT as a bunch of muscley hotties came in... I was tempted to stay but just kinda said screw it and went home... And I gotta say it felt really weird being home before 11.... Probably since I'd planned to stay out til at least midnight... Ah well...
I'm going to attempt to make it to bed before 2 a.m. tonight... It hasn't worked in the last week or so... I haven't been to bed before 3 since sometime in the beginning of last week...
Tomorrow I'm going to run some errands for mom and shop for a dining room set some more... Tomorrow night Kyle (Redd)'s playing at the Firehouse with Brett (Mouton)and I want to go there... But I also promised Matt (Burns) I'd be at Kays... Its hard being in demand... Or something.... lol.... And Matt has a hot new guitarist too... Though I've never really been into guys with full beards... Shockingly I think almost every guy I've dated has had facial hair in some form or fashion with one or 2 exceptions... Wow...
I may get ambitious and go see Bleu Friday night too, if I don't stay out too late tomorrow night... Though if a certain someone goes out tomorrow night and I just 'happen' to run into him then who knows when I'll actually get home.... :0)
Speaking of him... Theres something I forgot to add in last night... Chelle knows about it... He has really good taste (aside from being into me) theres a chick that always goes to Kay's Tuesdays (she's also the one who hooked up with Mark briefly and called him prissy) he looks at her and then at me and says she's just weird... I couldn't agree more... She could have a decent voice with some lessons, and she could play guitar if she had a few lessons... Her problem is she likes to drink to get drunk... ALOT... She was already gone by the time she got to Kays, which made for an interesting evening...
Anyway I also found out last night, this chick is going to Nashville this weekend for an exploratory type trip... She wants to play open mics up there and see how they go... And not just any open mic... No no no... At the freaking Bluebird Cafe... The most infamous open mic in the entire city.... From what I hear they can be brutal if they don't like ya... I'm curious to see how she fares....
Another thing that bothers me about her... The way she treats guys... I'm friends with more guys than girls, so I don't really claim to understand my own gender at times... Even though I am one of 3 girls... She was telling me how much she likes Cody (not like she'd do him but she admires him and thinks hes a nice guy for a musician) and when Cody was standing right there she was a total bitch to him... WHAT?!?!? I was all kinds of confused... Then I came to the realization she was lying... She probably is into him... Though I still don't really see why some girls think they have to act that way to get a guy... Hell there was drama in the bathroom of the Firehouse last weekend with a couple of girls that had formerly been best friends until one stole the interest of a guy the other was interested in... Why do women do this sort of thing to each other? I'm clueless.... I'll stick to playing 'the game' my way... I have less success sure but I feel good about myself and my actions at the end of the day... And thats whats important...
So on the way home from Blanco's I got to thinking (I was listening to Brandon Rhyder - another one who makes me think) what if I just keep driving? What if I go out past Katy and just keep on going west on I 10? (of course I'd never do that at night, it was just a thought...) What could happen? What if I just picked up and moved somewhere else? (again just random thoughts...)
I also got to thinking when I got home... I miss college life... It was so much easier... I enjoy life now just the same... Probably more so since I'm in my hometown and its not a dry county in the middle of Arkansas.... But I miss the easiness of it... All you were responsible for was going to class, doing the work, eating, sleeping, pay an odd bill like your cell phone or something and just live off your parents or scholarships.... There wasn't anymore stress than when your next paper was due or big test was.... A lot easier than life currently is... Though here lately, even being jobless, I don't think I'd trade my life at this very moment for anything... I have good friends... My family (the portion that I speak to) is awesome... My dog loves me and I heart her mucho too... And my love life's looking up especially in the last couple of days...
Like the song says... Who wouldn't want to be me? :0)

Happy Procrasination Day! (according to my apartment's monthly bulletin Sept. 6th is Procrastination day.... They suggest you do something you've put off today.... Eh, I may or may not, we'll see....) Also HAPPY HUMP DAY!!!
I've been home about 45 minutes or so and I'm quickly losing steam so this will be short and sweet til I can expound on it later, when I'm not half asleep...
I just remembered I forgot to call Benji before I left tonight... Oops...
Then I would have had 3 guys I was trying to flirt with instead of just 2...
That was difficult enough... One of em I hadn't seen in like a month or so, the other... In almost 2 weeks or so.... But I got a number... Which is kinda funny the way that happened.... I've gotten peoples phone numbers much the same way.... lol.... Then the joke that followed that had me rolling almost all night....
Lets see, it turns out Mark was sick so Kyle covered for him tonight and is covering for him again tomorrow night at the Palace... I still haven't decided to do that or go to Blanco's... Though I may try to do both... They're both free, why not? So I run into the crush someone asked me right to my face (with him right there) if this was the guy I'd been talking about... Luckily he was talking to someone else at the time, but for a minute I wanted to strangle her.... Cody Kouba was there and so was one of his cutie pie friends... I was like the only girl in the bar pretty much part of the night... But that doesnt say much since there were only like 7 guys in the whole bar... Still pretty good odds.
So then there was a guy I've been into on and off that was there too... I hadn't seen him in a really long time... Like he didnt know I was unemployed long... So we had a bit of catching up to do... I also found out that Mark had in fact hooked up with the chick I thought he'd hooked up with, not for long, but he did... And she was all like dont you think he's prissy? I was like he's an ex marine AND a fireman, how the hell is he prissy? Hes NOT metro... He's a nice guy and good looking to boot... But prissy? I think not... There was also a mention of Firehouse herpes.... I forget in what context, but it was about Mark being sick...
Actually thats most of tonight, so I probably don't need to write a longer blog later... Though I probably will if I think of anything I want to blog about...
So numero uno hottie left about 1130 ish... And the other left about an hour later... But it was kinda funny, cuz he goes to get his keys... And me being me (and having the keys in my hand) I asked what I got in return for the keys? He chuckled and said he could give me something he wasnt sure I'd like.... We talked another minute or so, hug, and he went off to 'make the rounds'... I go to the ladies room and come back and hes still there, I stop and tease him about not having left yet and check it out... He tells me, he's just waiting to hug me again.... aww... sweet and just a bit of a line....
So I go back to sit down and I'm listening to whoever's playing and he comes up behind and hugs me again, exclaiming he'd gotten 3 hugs from me... Very cute...
Then I got home about one ish and walked the dog.....
I'm sure I'm missing some stuff but ah well...
I think I'm off to bed now... This will be the first night in like a week I make it to bed before 3 a.m.....

So I pretty much did exactly what I planned to for Labor Day... Went to the vet (the dog doesn't have tape worm), ate BBQ, went to Mom's and did laundry... I'm just too exciting for words....
I did however go to the grocery store and Pei Wei for mom... And I finally got that piece of pie I've been craving... I found a lil 2 piece frozen thingy at Krogers with Apple Pie.... It was hmm mmm good...
But I have to say in the course of my day a few things did happen that I wanted to blog about....
1. The Crocodile Hunter dying... The way he died (a stingray's barb got him through the heart) surprised the hell out of me... I always thought it'd be a snake bite or a croc that got him... Maybe an overzealous wombat even... But a stingray? Thats the first sting ray related death I've ever heard of... And with my life long obsession with everything to do with the ocean, I think thats pretty amazing...
He also left behind (I hate that phrase, but he's survived by doesn't sound good either... Its impossible I think to make anything about death sound good...) 2 kiddos and a wife.... I don't have any inkling about how his wife may feel and I have a feeling that the younger kid (I think he's 3) doesn't have a clue about what death is or why daddy's not coming home from this latest adventure... And the fact both of them will grow up without a father saddens me... And I know in a way what they'll go through... I was only about 4 or 5 years older than his older child when my dad died... But he wasn't really active in my life other than the occasion weekend or odd trip out of town the last year or so of his life.... I have a feeling it was completely different for this guy's children...
And his death made me miss daddy a lil... It happens... Sometimes at odd moments, even almost 15 years later that still surprises me how much I miss having a father... Certain songs get me and make me wanna break down and cry... Pat Green's new CD has a song called Dixie Lullaby and that can do it for me... The Trailers new CD has a song called All This Love that gets me too... And theres an older country song called Daddy's Hands I can't listen to without crying a little... And occasionally I'll catch a whiff of his cologne (Aramis) and just smile... He was one of those guys that wore a little too much but it wasn't really overwhelming.....
But I have a lot of memories and a lot of people to share them with, so I don't feel too down too long...
Anyway onto happier subjects....
2. THANK GOD THE COP DOWNSTAIRS LIKES TO WALK AROUND SHIRTLESS!!!! I swear I get a semi peep show every time he's out at the same time I am... Tonight he was washing his Jeep (a red Wrangler with a Khaki soft top - very nice) in a pair of jeans and no shirt on.... And as I'm walking maggie back up the walkway to the stairs, he's about to go into his apartment downstairs and we stop and chat for a minute or two.... I had the hardest damn time NOT ogling him... lol... Let's just say I wouldn't kick him out of bed for all the tea in china... too bad I think he has a live in girlfriend... Darnit....
So tomorrow.... The agenda so far seems to be mainly jobhunting, taking care of the dog, making some phone calls, maybe getting an oil change and then Kay's tomorrow night for Mark's thingy....
I'm off to read a bit before bed...

I'm starving... Why I wouldn't do for a piece of pie right now... I watched this thing on the Food Network on a pie competition of some sort and now I'm craving pie like a mad woman.... If only it weren't so late at night and I knew I could talk anyone into going to the House of Pies... Its only like 10 minutes away... Less than that if I'm not driving... lol....
I almost had a salad just to have some food... Not just any salad... But Mom's version of Greek Salad... Romaine lettuce, with feta cheese, dried cherries, and a lemon and olive oil dressing... Usually there's croutons and some pear but I don't have either so I'd have to improvise.... Damn I still want one now... But if I eat I can't take my Nexium... Damn acid reflux...
At least I have BBQ brisket to look forward to for lunch.... YUM... I can't remember the last time I had brisket.... And theres potato salad and beans to go with it.... And this amazing BBQ sauce... God bless my mom for getting it for me...
Enough with the food talk.... I'm still hungry.... Maybe if I take my meds and hit the hay I won't think about eating....
I am tired... But I dont want to go to bed yet cuz I don't know if I'll be able to sleep... Between the weird hours I've been keeping, the sexual frustration, and the stress about money and being jobless I'm lucky if I get 7 hours straight of sleep... Most nights lately I go to bed and wake up an hour or 2 later... Then a few hours later I get up to walk the dog... And sometimes after that I'll go back to bed for another couple of hours... I'd love to have one night of uninterupted sleep... I think I know how new mothers feel now... lol...
Thats it I'm giving the meds/going to bed approach to avoid hunger... But I dont know how much sleep I'll be able to get tomorrow since I have to take the dog to the vet, go to Moms and get some stuff and do laundry too... Dammit man, I may just take a nap in the afternoon....

Heres a subject thats been done to death, even by me, but something occured the other night that made me think about it more.... Musicians and the women who want them.....
So I was at the Eli Young Band show and theres this ONE chick in the front row, low cut shirt, tight jeans, tummy bare, DRUNK as a skunk, fake boobs, fake tan, heavily made up face and dyed hair. Now I'm all for looking good if you've got the body for it, but she looked like she was about 30 trying to appear younger (as in barely legal to drink younger)... Nothing wrong with that, most women want to look younger (except me since I already look at least 3 or 4 years younger than I am...).... My main complaint about this girl was the way she acted... Besides being drunk, rude and spilling her drink on people... She was a typical 'front row ho'. Now if you don't know what one is... Its the girls who push and shove their way to the front to get closer to whoever is playing and make bedroom eyes at whichever member of the band they think is the hottest... Usually the lead singer.
Now having dated a musician for a good period of time, I tended to notice these girls at any show I was at where my ex played... He's a good looking guy, add a guitar and the fact he could sing like a bird in the trees and people seemed to think he was some sort of God... I wasn't ever jealous of them since, at the time, I was certain of his faithfulness (which later turned out to be totally wrong of me), in fact a lot of times we'd laugh about how obvious they were being....
Now theres those kind of women... And then there are the ones like me...
That don't consider their guy to be next to God, but are into him because he's got other qualities that attracted these women to them... I personally thought my ex was the funniest sweetest guy, he wasn't the most romantic in the traditional sense and I had to make a lot of sacrifices to be with him but in my mind it was worth it... And there are other women like me, who gladly stand backstage and wait til their guy gets offstage and spends whatever time she can grab with him.... Even occasionally working the merch table when needed....
Anyway I don't know where I was going with this post but ah well....
So my plans for Labor day.... So far I'm taking the dog to the vet, eating BBQ and going to Mom's to clean up some of my stuff in my old bedroom and then doing some laundry... I'm too exciting for words I know...
I spent a good chunk of today cleaning.... I couldn't sleep last night so I cleaned the kitchen... Then this afternoon I did my bedroom, dining room and living room... Then tonight I did the bathroom.... The only thing I didn't do was vacuum... But mainly cuz that would have required another trip to Moms to borrow her vacuum cleaner and I hate vacuuming....
Aight its off to walk the dog one last time before bedtime....

So yeah its almost 2 in the morning and I'm not really surprised I'm still up... I am suprised that B came over after Seany left and brought me presents... A bottle of Crown and a couple of wine stoppers... God bless that man, he always knows what I need.... We finished an entire bottle of wine and I'm sleepy as heck... Thats the effect alcohol has on me... Which is why I rarely drink much anywhere I don't plan to sleep... So we finished a bottle of Riesling and talked about Sean and the whole single conversation....
B made an interesting point.... Like a lot of women I'm hard to please when it comes to the romance department... He added a disclaimer after that, that after my last ex it was sort of understandable though... He was like, if I dumped a girl because I found out she'd been cheating on me and then lied to me about it, I'd probably be a lil scarred by it too...
Then we talk about the Ideal Mate.... And somehow get into the Ideal Job, too... I tell him I'm not sure I can ever find either... He does a lovely job of reassuring me, both are out there... But now that hes gone I'm sitting here wondering if I'm too picky? Or too stubborn? I know what I want and I refuse to settle for less... Sometimes to my own detriment....
Then he poked fun of me since I'm reading a book of Maya Angelou's poems as well as a book on American poets and yet another compilation of British poets too... He's like you haven't finished the Dog Whisperer book yet OR the Jack Kerouac and you're starting something new? I told him I could read em all at the same time... Besides I haven't touched On the Road since before I was fired... It requires a bit more concentration than I'm willing to give right now... I feel like I was a freaking genius reading it in high school....lol... And the Dog Whisperer book, the guy just sounds really self righteous so I'm not really wanting to finish that one...
Then he did the one thing I love most in the world... He brought up his old Gibson (it was like his 1st guitar and he never goes anywhere without it, even though he has like 5 others, its still his favorite....) and played for a while.... I swear there is nothing better than a guy with an acoustic guitar... Its one of the prettiest sounds in the world.... Is it any wonder I have a thing for musicians? At least I'm over my fireman thing... (go me... 
)
Aight I'm going to bed... I'm starting to make a lot of mistakes and I'm all nice and relaxed from the wine... One thing could make this night perfect... But thats not gonna happen for more than one reason....

So Sean was over earlier and we had this long drawn out discussion about being single in the city of Houston.... We discussed different options for meeting people (including that list I blogged about a few weeks ago)... And then for some reason we started talking about Dr Phil's book Love Smart (I still haven't finished reading but somehow Sean has zoomed through in 2 days...) and the pointers he gives versus how it really is... Sean's only been single a couple of months but technically he's not really... He and his ex still date but he claims they aren't in a 'relationship' persay... Whatever....
We didn't come to any diffinitive solutions or anything we just rambled on and complained about how hard it is to meet new people in general...
ANYWAY.... So far this weekend has been long and darn near too much fun... If there was such thing as too much fun that is.... It started Thursday night at the Firehouse... Stoney Larue was playing.... I got there about 9 ish and I was shocked to find the parking lot basically empty and inside hardly enough people... I ran into CJ and ended up hanging with him most of the night... By about 10 ish more people had shown up and Rich O'Toole was partway through his set... (thank God) The only good thing about that band was the lead guitarist, not only a cutie but talented too.... I spent most of the last part of their set studying his technique... I know nothing about guitar playing but he was incredible... He wasn't Coby Weir or Stoney Larue or Matt Powell (my idea of the best guitarists in Texas Music) but he was good... And staring at him kept me from staring at the icky bassist or Rich O'Toole himself... I couldn't understand most of the words and the ones I could understand, the lyrics could use some work.... And the band didn't have a sound that really gelled... It could be lack of experience but it just didn't sound.... right... Ya know? AND they did a 3 song encore... WTF??!?! Thats the only opening band I've ever heard do an encore... And NO ONE was screaming for them to come back or anything, it was just that Stoney wasn't ready yet....
So CJ says he thinks he sees Matt Burns come in, I'm like he's at Kays tonight, how could he be here? Turns out I was wrong and he WAS there... He had shaved and gotten a haircut so he wasn't the Matt I remembered from last week since he looked about 15 (and he got carded for beer too!!! ). So Chris and Colin (not the one I'm into) showed up and eventually James did too... I met their new guitarist Steve... And throughout the night I rediscovered something... I LOVE LOVE LOVE tall guys... I dont know why I just do.... Anyway as it happens, Matt skipped out on playing Kays to see Stoney, the naughty monkey.... So I spend most of my time between Stoney and Rich's set talking to Matt and them, getting the latest and greatest on rumors and news in the music biz.... And also a promise of a copy of their new CD... I heart those guys... And I also found out Matt still has a copy of that first post I ever made on Galley about him... We were talking and I was like yeah I think I said you were hot or something... And hes like yeah you did and its hanging on my bulletin board at home... Sweet, I'm semi famous or something....
So Stoney eventually goes on and I go back to the front and hang out with CJ some more.... I was surprised since Stoney mostly did older stuff he hadn't done since back in the day when he didn't have a full time band... Stuff like Texas Cooking and others I can't even remember right now... It was AMAZING... There was a point when an acoustic guitar was broken on stage and pieces handed out... Nichols bit off a piece... And then Stoney poured beer over the semi broken bigger piece and let people in the crowd drink from it... I barely managed to avoid getting wet, but somehow I still did... Then towards the end Stoney goes around playing different instruments he goes from guitar to bass to playing drums... Which I didn't know he could do.... They ended the night almost all playing different instruments... It was awesome... Then I spent a bit of time 'backstage' with Matt and them, gossiping some more and bashing Rich O'Toole's band who was right behind us most of the time... Oops.. I got my CD, which I promised to review... Which I still need to do... And then I came home...
Friday was rather uneventful.. I spent the morning at Mom's waiting for the UPS guy, who still hadn't come by the time I left about 130... So I went home, walked the dog and went to the grocery store and paid rent.... Then Friday night I went back to the Firehouse... This time for Josh Owen and Eli Young Band... I'm not a huge EYB fan but I do dig them... And the fact they sound exactly like they do recorded is cool too... And Josh is just a cutie pie who can play a mean blues guitar.... I ended up hanging with Susanna most of the night which was cool, since I don't get to see her alot... And during one trip to the bar I ran into a guy who swore he knew me.... The conversation went something like this... (after I had gotten my coke and put it in my koozie)
Him: Thats really cool how you do that...
Me looking skeptical: thanks...
Him: Do I know you from somewhere?
Me: Well I do come here a lot....
Him: What's your name?
Me: Alison
Him: Do you go by anything else?
Me: Yeah but thats the one I usually answer to...
Him: Like Denise?
Me: No never Denise...
Him: Are you sure you're not Denise?
Me: Yeah
Him: You look just like Denise, I swear you're her... Don't you remember me?
Me: No I'm not Denise and I have no idea who you are....
He pretty much persisted that I was Denise, I just walked away... But every time I went back to the bar he kept acting like he was going to start up with calling me Denise again... Stupid drunk man...
So I left before 1 am and came home, walked the dog and then slept most of today...
Sean came over about 530 and we went to dinner at Beck's and then we came back to my apartment where we watched movies til he left about 10 ish.... And now here I be... lol... SNL's on and Kevin would love it cuz it seems to be Christmas themed... PERFECT for him....
And now I've officially rambled on long enough and I actually think I've run out of things to write about for now... Shocking...
