Wow what a party. My going away/quarter of a century birthday party was at Warehouse Saloon. Karaoke was sung. Gratuitous cleavage shots were taken. Many Irish Car Bombs were drunk. Apparently everyone will be able to enjoy the spectical that is myself singing 'My Humps' because someone at the bar videoed me and said they'd put it on Youtube. Haven't been able to find the vid yet though. Stay tuned!
In other near stardom news Kara came clean and told me the day we cut out of work early and went to get a pedicure and we HAPPENED to come across a camera crew was actually a well plotted ambush. She had sent me in to What Not To Wear. They loved me (come on, i make swords and i did a handstand on the street in Downtown Austin for them) and they wanted to do a show with me until they realized i live in Wimberley, worked in Driftwood and Austin's still an hour away. D'oh!
They would have ripped my apartment apart. Then again, as long as they didn't throw out my suits i wouldn't have cared that much. Unless, of course, they decided i really needed to go high fem. That would have been a total waste of someone else's 5K on clothing. Give me the black label Armani and a few things by Calvin Klein thanks! Wow Kara, you're slick.
It sad it takes someone moving, dying of getting married to get people together like that. And of course i'm sad to be leaving this web of people that have bonded with me. It is a wonderful thing to have seen them all together though.
I'm left with sharp memories of this time last year when i first arrived; seasons having come full circle again. So this time in Texas has been no failure to me. I've seen growth (emotionally and my balls are bigger now) and learning (blades, business, Jiu Jitsu, and Buddhism). Thankfully my eagerness and hope are still intact, though more tempered.
Ok, ok, enough sentiment- i do have to MOVE out of here this week so i'm going to get doing.
So this ebay nonsense is over and has totaled:
$450 for the motorcycle parts
another $120 for the fried laptop
and most surprisingly of all...$30 for the 5 New Kids On The Block CDS. That damn bundle of NKOTD schwag i bough over a year ago for kate and i to distribute subversively over Santa Fe has now paid for itself three times over. How odd! So now you know the going rate!
Fak. During a mid day nap today i'm certain i stopped breathing. My nose is stuffed up almost thoroughly so i was breathing through my mouth. My breaths were coming more and more slowly as i fell asleep, probably slower than usual- and then i must have fallen asleep for a second. Suddenly i jerked awake like i'd been struck or shocked. I'm left with chest pains and general fear.
I really hope i don't have sleep apnea like mum did but it seems distinctly possible. It would explain why i've had less energy during the day and end up sleeping so much. The deviated septum i got two years ago probably doesn't help this at all. I'd already decided to get the nose looked at after the move because it gets blocked up so often. Let's just hope the nose and the nose alone is the total reason for todays little horror.
Lesbian speed dating.
...Because we're moving in together.
and because one of the first conversations we had was:
"No, i'm not looking for a relationship. I just want good sex."
"Yeah, i just want to be totally unattainable and a horrible flirt."
and just for kicks and because i wrote a comic about it (isn't that HOT): Lesbian Phone Sex by the same folks as above.
HOME DEPOT! HOME DEPOT!!!!
Finally, a mime does something funny: Karaoke for the deaf. Hey...this could be a good idea for a drag act actually.
They're coming up with NM barbies out there.
Dynasty Handbag makes me lose my mind.
p.s. I've been perv-uh... Studying female fighters...again. Megumi Fujii and Cindy Hales and Marie Colangelo. Check out Cindy Vs. Mega Megu and Cindy Vs. Gazzy. I can't believe they're four inches taller than me and weight 12-15 pounds less than me when they weigh in for fights. Bugger. I could probably trim 5lbs and still not be totally miserable but my god. I don't like the drastic weight cutting practice for men or women fighters. I've had enough fun with not-enough-fat-to-menstrate before, thank you.
p.p.s.: Fatal Femmes could be good like Hook N Shoot was.
In recent spam mail i have won the 2008 Irish National Lottery. BAAAHAHAHAHA! Oh that's rich.
Joao has now opened an all things Brazilian Jiu Jitsu web store at JustJiuIt.com. I was too stupid to remember that they were filming another DVD this morning so i won't be in the next one :o(
I have found the solution to our future bed quandaries. Cheryl, check this out: The Poof Chair (or sometimes Foof or Fuf). No, no. It has nothing to do with fops and fags but it is very comforting. I had one of the best nights of sleep in a purple twill one of these things. I know it's not exactly cheap but it's cheaper than a temperpedic mattress!
I listed about 25 items on Ebay. Oh my god it made me want to drink. Up for sale if you're wondering are motorcycle parts i replaced in fixing up my magna and my old laptop with fried motherboard. People seem to be bidding so i'm glad to see the 4 hours of mind numbingness i've put towards the auctions so far will be worthwhile.
I suppose you want some news that's actually a bit more concrete about my life right now? There are so many things i should be doing- the most obvious of which is preparing to MOVE back to Santa Fe- which i am completely ignoring. For now. Crud. I feel healthy but otherwise completely scattered. And now for taxes...
Ariadne the greek WAG and Lenora, the mentally abusive Australian life coach.
Rasa's trying to get Anthony Bourdain of No Reservations to go to Lithuania with her. Watch the vid then go vote her some props!!!
p.s. Not for sober vegetarians.
Where i did not want to find myself on primary election day wearing (accidentally) a really dykey hat and a Tracy Chapman 'Swing State Concert Tour VOTE' t-shirt:
The Wimberley Texas republican primary station.
No wonder there were so many frikkin' signs for Ron Paul. Can i vote republican for Ru Paul instead?
