I went downtown about 8:00 last night and hung out at Hot Corner for a while until Kate woke up from her nap and came downtown. We went down the street to X-Ray Cafe and watched Kyle Dawkins and then Erik and the Watchlist.
The second band was improvisational (with a one of a kind instrument which was very cool) but I was coming down off my caffeine buzz and getting kind of squirmy in my seat after an hour. Erik grades 8th grade papers and introduced us to the word “surprisually” which I plan to use at least twice this weekend.
After the show, I talked to :jenny: on the phone and then Kate wanted to go to 283 to see some of her friends from school. We walked up there and talked to them for a few minutes and then we went to the T-Stand to get Kate dinner. :shawn: called while we were there and said that he and Jenny were at Clocked! having dinner.
Kate went back to 283 and I walked to see those guys. On the way, I got to pass the former location of previously-favorite bar Lunch Paper which is now going to be a T-Mobile. Rock on, Athens!
We sat at Clocked! for a bit and then went back to Hot Corner where I saw Mark
studying and we discussed the recent lesbianism on The O.C. and things related to the Pretense Barbie bookclub. I am convinced they are meeting without me since I never finished The World According to Garp.
Shawn, Jenny, and I sat there for a while and did interet quizzes and talked about work for an hour or so. I did not want to play scrabble because I am still not over the “grok incident” of last August.
I walked outside and called Kate to see if she wanted me to come pick her up wherever she was and I looked up and she was in front of me. I think she might have travelled through the phone signal like the Atom.
I came home and fell asleep while watching the new Battlestar Galactica which has become my new Friday night post-bar tradition.
I woke up this morning, finished watching Galactica, made coffee, made cheese toast, and blogged this.
Kate should be done with Tai Chi soon and we are going to go to J&J or garage sales or something. Last week’s adventure to the school auction has whetted my appetite for collection.
That is all. Please go to another website now.
