Amsterdam or Bust!

So my friend Spanky emails me today and asks me if I've ever gone to Amsterdam.
I said Nope, Let's Go!
He says he is on vacation next week, he needs a travel partner, has an extra buddy pass (he works for Delta) can i get a few days off?

HELLS YEAH!!!!

I'll let you know where we end up going...
It's either Amsterdam, Key West, Hawaii, Jamaica, Barbados or Aruba...

I am thinking beach....I've already been to Key West, but anywhere is cool by me! Now that I have a passport - let's roll - I'm game!

YAY!


Now, who's gonna feed my cats.....

Anyone??

Anyone??

Bueller???

Some people should just be put out of their misery

My friend's ex-husband is an asshole. Have you heard the recent drama with him? He keeps emailing people here at my work, well, my boss and I, about some photo that my friend's sister made up where she superimposed his head on a child’s body at chucky cheese in a pic taken with that mouse thing from chucky cheese. Anyways, he accused me of doing it and wrote a lengthy email to my boss asking if we (my work) had used it for any of our promotional or advertising – can u believe it? What an idiot. So Friday, my boss pulls me and my friend into his office and asks us about it – and I DID NOT make that photo – so we are of the hook, but the thing is that her sister had written on it something with the name of our company – I don’t know, I don’t really get it. Then my boss wrote back a long email to that loser saying how the photo is in no way associated with us and that we would never use anything that foolish in our advertising…blah blah blah…so THEN Monday morning, I get an email from this crazy head accusing me again of making the photo, well I wrote him back (and let my boss approve it first of course) about how I did not create the photo and if he emails me again, then I will file my own personal harassment suit against him. I haven’t heard anything directly since..

However, yesterday, he decides to fax over that “priceless” photo that my friend, accidentally, snapped on his camera 2 yrs ago. My boss has gotten the lawyers involved now and they wrote a letter to him. The dumbass still wrote back a bunch of crap that didn't make any sense. I really wish I could post it, but I don't have it.

What an idiot!!!!!

I love Butch Walker.

I LOVE BUTCH WALKER. www.butchwalker.com or www.myspace.com/butchwalker
I know it is an unhealthy obsession. But DAMN I fucking love that man.
I went to the show again last nite - 2nd nite at Variety Playhouse - then to the after party at 2 Urban Licks - SO MUCH FUN. Saw so many people I knew there - from every avenue/walk of life. I saw English Nick from 96 rock - he and my old roomie Cord www.cordstone.com were BFF when we lived together. Cord has since moved to Austin, TX and performs with a band called the Spazmatics. I saw Patrick from the Goodies www.thegoodiesonline.com or www.myspace.com/thegoodies - he also plays bass with Open Sky Separator and The Warm Gunns (see below for link) and also used to work with my bro at Long Horn and also went to my high school and also works at the bar up the street...saw Ben Rose www.benrosephotography.com used to be in youth group with him back in high school...and of course, I saw Butch, who used to play shows at my pool when I lived in Towne Club in Statesboro - Georgia Southern days - with his old band Floyds Funk Revival - and the best thing about it is that he fucking remembered me. Hell yes. He never rememebrs my name...but he always rememebers my face. He looked straight at me and said "hey girl!" - I know to some of you - I seem pathetic - but I don't care. I LOVE HIM. I will have to post my photos tomorrow...just wait and see what I got...you'll love it! I also hung out with Cris Cox & Mark Dannells from the Warm Gunns www.thewarmgunns.com or www.myspace.com/warmgunns - some of the funniest people you will ever meet - hilarious. Spleen splitting. Love those guys! Oh yeah and Cris is married to Dana, Butch's sister. I am high on life right now from all the musically inspired stimulation from last nite!

Did I mention how much I love Butch Walker?

Butch Walker

I have been in love with Butch Walker since 1994...and I am more in love now than I was when I first saw him in the bushes outside my apartment with that slut in the yellow dress back in Statesboro...I remember wishing I was that girl, at the same time I was thinking what a trashy girl to be acting that way.

Funny how perception changes everything...



I am watching the Atlanta concert of Butch at the Variety Playhouse last June - he's doing Cigarete Lighter Love Song - God I love that song....It's one of the last songs that the Marvelous 3 ever wrote & performed together/

I can't put my finger on it, but one of the things I love most about Butch is watching him perform, singing especially, he just has so much passion and charisma and personality and his facial expressions are just beautiful, as well as his voice. GOD, what a fantastic beautiful soulful voice. And his lyrical composition - I just love the way he writes. "Hello can I take your order, I've been waitin for day-ays....I'd like a little compassion, with a side of may-o-naise..."

LOVE HIM!

But I also feel like such a LOSER loving him so...I feel like a teenager when I watch him. Me & my friend Kat are the same way about him, as well as every female in Atlanta I think, and this is why I feel so GAY for loving him as I do. I mean, I know its a total fantasy, but since I SORT-OF know him, then it hits a bit closer to home than say, lusting after Johnny Depp or Matthew McConaughey whom I will most likely never encounter.

"I shed 5 bitter tears, into 5 bitter beers...looked at my watch & said where have the years gone?; I'm wasting away like a castle of clay...slowly crumbling too..."

Tom Jones Eat your heart out!

This is the best performance on ice I have ever seen!!! Tom Jones eat your heart out!!
