I did go to karaoke and let me just say that when certain people finished singing there were tears in the eyes of some in the audience. And they didn't seem to be tears of joy. And no, "certain people" would not include me.
I do have a bit of an update but I am still feeling a little under the weather so I'l post later.I sure could use a good story if you've got one.
Oh, I got a great pair of pants at $100 off on the weekend!! How's that for great news? I almost fell over myself going into the store. I couldn't wait to get my sweaty little hands on them. Not reaaallllyyy...
LoL Karaoke. Don't ever do Rock Lobster if you can't pull off .... o/~ Tiiiiiiiiin rooooooof! I think I had the same audience of tears. Advice - one should never karaoke after sake bombs.
I just saw Cutter's card. It's funny. Are you in the alt? I think we need you there!!!
Niiiiiiiice on the pants! My only deal was a ref uniform for S12. Hey, it has an alternate jersey, too. Can't beat that!
Feel better, friend!

The average woman would rather have beauty than brains, because the average man can see better than he can think.
Oooh, kara, are you on FB? Friend me! (Does that sound pathetic and pursuing? )
Hmm, let's see, a good story to combat the blues from sickness and sitch-ness...
No good shopping on my end. There's a no shopping until I get a job rule in effect. I am suffering inside.
Well, I have a few good celeb sighting stories. There are two I always pull out and since BF isn't here I can tell them again. [He has, of course, heard them a million times. But I never tire of telling them to new audiences. In fact, when his old team wanted to have a group dinner at Bubba Gump I said I would go only on the condition that I could tell the below story.]
I was living in SF when the movie Forrest Gump came out. Some friends wanted to go see it opening weekend. My BFF was late meeting me so by the time we got to the theater our other friends were already seated and the place was packed. BFF insists that we sit together which is looking impossible. I spot a row with two empty seats, but there is a man and two kids sitting between them. I suggest to BFF that we each ask the people surrounding the empty seats if they are being saved, if not we can ask the group in the middle to scoot over one. We do that and reconvene. Turns out that the man in the middle group is Robin Williams. BFF starts freaking out and says we can't ask him to move over. Nonsense.
Me: Hi. Can I ask you a favor? RW: [Slumps in his seat and pulls his baseball cap down a bit.] What is it? Me: Would you mind moving over one so my friend and I can sit together? RW: [Sits back up and replies cheerily] No problem. Kids, move over.
So I motion to BFF to come over and we sit down. I seriously worry she is going to make a scene so I took the seat next to RW. All throughout the movie I have RW's unmistakeable laugh next to me. I have never watched FG again because it just wouldn't be the same.
Now if you friend me I'll tell you about being a groupie for my favorite rock star.
If you love somebody, set them free. http://tinyurl.com/2empx2g
OK, Pearl, that was good... I LOVE HIM! Way to go!!!
I have a few... let's cheer Kara up...
I saw Sarah Jessica Parker in Las Vegas airport, and my H claims I almost tripped her up w/my rolling luggage. (Wish I would have figured out who she was because I met her HUSBAND while in college, and I wasnt convinced he was straight...)
We saw Rudy Guiliani at a hotel in California w/his Mantourage. (Weird, but he's kind of hot!) LoL
We saw Enrique Inglesias at a pub in Las Vegas. NOW that BOY/MAN is HOOOOOTTTTTTTTTTT! I would have paid lots to sit on his lap! Holy cow! He's just beautiful in person.
Oh, and, lastly, Susan St. James grew up in my house, and she showed up one day a few years back... standing outside taking pics of our house. My H looks out front door and says, "Hey, can I get in these pics?" He goes out to talk, doesn't realize it's her, and she says her family owned the house. Well, their last name was diff, and my H says (in front of me, and now I'm about to pee from holding back laughter), "Wait, did you know Susan St. James?" She looks at me, and we burst out laughing. She says, "I AM SUSAN ST JAMES" LoL She spent two hours w/us going through our house, w/stories, and giving us the history she knew. LOVE HER! We still email.
