Thursday Allison “roped” me (it wasn’t that hard really) into seeing Gogol Bordello at Toad’s place, in Richmond, on a worknight. I in turn “roped” Anna-Claire (also not so hard) into coming along for gypsy times. In my few hours spent there I enjoyed another long and never boring Gogol Bordello performance, a private Hot Lava show (practice), giant PBRs courtesy of AC, and Allison’s new palace in the sky. Bonus: Allison surprised me with my “Fans Only” Belle and Sebastian DVD that I wrote off as lost years ago. This is the only DVD I’ve ever owned with rounded corners.
I can’t figure out how to take a decent picture with this cute, tiny, squirt gun looking camera I bought on the cheap. It makes everyone in my life glow.
A couple weeks late here is my recap on the Feline Inn (Anna-Claire’s house). What Anna-Claire’s house lacks in number of cats, just two in comparison to the Hotel Cat’s four, it makes up for in Ada. Ada is the rolly polly dreamboat pictured above and below. Highlights:
Anna-Claire’s drugstore like collection of make up and products.
I spent this weekend at The Hotel Cat, aka Ginny’s place in Southside. Four kitties of various sizes and dispositions were at my beck and call. In the sink brushing my teeth, on the computer writing my e-mails, doing my laundry, offering beauty makeovers, etc.
Ginny and I saw supported Hot Lava, peeped on people having sex in a car, pulled A-C off the roof and out of her romper, ate a lot of Mexican, drank vodka and watched Susan say farewell to dudez. It was a solid weekend.
Also, Winston (I am not referring to Ginny) was a guest on Pot Psychology! (I’m sorry I sweat Winston…)
This weekend my sister Annie turned 23 years old! Unfortunately she stayed in Richmond for the big day, but is coming home next weekend for celebration. Hopefully I can invent a Mexican bean and cheese cake to wow her with. Annie has a big deal appointment today so everyone please wish success on her.
Anna-Claire came for a visit this weekend and our first order of business was to cure Seven. Seven recently waged an imaginary war on Rocky Balboa and as a result gave herself PTSD. She peed on the spare bed nearly every day for a week! Foul. Anna-Claire recommended a Feliway plugin and I think it is working, no pee so far.
We watched movies, went to pilates, swapped music, and went shopping. Girls weekend! Anna-Claire agreed to write a review of No Frill Grill for Broad Audit – a ridiculous opinion blog I contribute to. Her review was very thorough, my only fear is she exceeded our audience’s level of reading comprehension.
I start my new job tomorrow (APRIL FOOLS DAY). I bought some new pens and pencils and am trying not to stress.
Dan sang happy birthday to himself today. I would bake him a cake if I thought he would eat it. I would buy him a drink if he weren’t so straight edge. I will not disclose his age (hint: closer to 40 than 10?)
