This weekend is a METAL weekend!
The perfectionist in me may never be able to glue these tiles down.
Ack! Why is it late?
I planned to sleep as much as possible this week. To store it up for this weekend, which is going to be one of the most Metal weekends ever. \m/
Instead I stayed up too late last night explaining to this one guy who I’ve got a very long involved history of misunderstandings and not getting together with that I keep giving him more chances even though he keeps screwing stuff up because I like him, so he should try again.
Maybe I’m just bringing on my own further punishment by encouraging him because I can’t tell if he’s just awkward or maybe he’s a jerk and I’m in denial.
Tonight I found out both Electric Six and Valient Thorr announced shows I must be at and I spent the rest of my night trying to figure out a game plan to make all this happen and now its past my bedtime, I’m short sleep for two days in a row and I’m not done yet.
I’d better get in bed and worry about all this junk another time.
Oreo needs serious dental work. I’ve known it for a long time but there’s always been some other more pressing problem with her… anyway she’s got an appointment and they’ll likely take out most of her teeth.
Lucy had it done several years before she died and never missed her teeth at all. In fact she was pissed off at me the first day for not giving her her dry food. She never seemed to notice they were gone. The worst of the whole thing was me worrying while she was having the procedure and the bill, of course.
Years later someone on the internet said something about her crooked Pirate smile. Other than that we all lived happily ever after right away.
Hoping it goes like that for Oreo, but she’s generally both a lot more sensitive, a lot more melodramatic, and a lot less resilient than Lucy ever was, so who knows how she’ll take it. It may traumatize her for the rest of her life.
I’m hoping she’ll get over it as soon as her teeth don’t hurt her anymore. I was like that with my root canal. Scared to death of the procedure but as soon as I got my permanent crown I was able to forget about my teeth and live my life again.
It’s not for another week or so but I’m reading up on different people’s experiences. Seems like most kitties end up better for having it done like Lucy did.
All the things that cost money

This is how my kitty wakes me up most mornings. (Right-Side Up and Correctly Sized Version)
I may have to fly.
To make it to both these Electric Six shows.
Good for me!
Electric Six and Valient Thorr have both announced some pivotal new shows today for me to latch onto and plan around.
Electric Six is doing 2 shows to record a live album which will include a 2nd set that will be Fire in it’s entirety. Easily one of my all-time favorite albums, and they’re doing this while they’re still good, not 20 years later when they’ve run out of money like the fogie Metal bands I complain about. So you know it’ll sound great. I think one time I saw them do Nuclear War after Gay Bar. Which was awesome and I only wished they’d kept going and done the rest of the album. Fri 05/11 Minneapolis MN First Avenue and Sat 05/12 Chicago IL Double Door.
Valient Thorr is about to go on tour with COC and Torche and if that’s not good enough for you, then once again I’m proud to say they’re making a special stop in my town on a night off, because they know they have fans here, to play a bar that’s probably too small for them to be playing. Sun 03/04 Columbus, OH Kobo.
I was trying to work out some clever way to take some vacation time and see both bands when they were going to be in Michigan at roughly the same time but I couldn’t make it work, so this great news for me that both bands have added cooler shows on better days!
This didn’t work for me, but they told me it works 9/10 times.
OMG yes terrified! I have people for that. People with tools for that. Which looked a lot like a long spring on a stick. Glad it wasn’t me had to fish it out.
Either me or the cat
dropped a fridge magnet in the garbage disposal.
FYI: Don’t do that.
