I Guess It's True What They Say About Twitter

I suppose I've been blogging less b/c I'm spending more time on my Twitter. Well, I still like to write here though; really it's my record of happenings. So what the hell is going on? Well I finally got well, last week. Took 3 damn weeks to get over that URI and my knee is still healing from the broken glass but I was finally able to take the bandaid off. I gigged last Thurs. and Fri. w/Jon and our harmonica frenemy and at the Fri. gig I wanted to wear my pink strapless mini-dress so I took the bandaid off then for the 1st time.

Whew, what a night that was! Jon and I spent the night down the street from the gig at his older sister's house, as Jon had to be at the airport at 6am--we only got about 2 1/2 hrs of sleep after we loaded up, got paid, and since I was craving ice cream, went to the grocery store to satisfy my late-night craving. Then after dropping Jon off at the airport I had to report to Job #2 for a special weekend security shift. 2 shifts actually. I sat outside doing security from 7a-10a, then went home, managed to take a nap (left the damn cell phone in the other room so as not to be pestered by calls/texts), then reported back to Job #2 for another shift of 4-6p. At which time I went down to see me Ma and stepdad. Finally I came home and was happy to spend a nice, sedate, restful evening at home. That's b/c I had to be in bed at a decent time for SUNDAY'S Job #2 security shift of 7a-9a, after which time I had to go pick up Jon from the airport; he had just a quick gig on Sat. in Baltimore so it was nice to have him home almost right away again.

This past Monday night he headlined at the House of Blues and so many of our friends and his family were there. Really fun night. Tonight I'm looking forward to returning to the jam after 2 weeks of missing it due to illness/malaise. I'm excited b/c this afternoon I went to the "ghetto mall" and ordered me a 10 Karat gold tooth cap. It was so cool! They made an impression of my teeth and it should be ready by this evening and I will wear it to the jam and horrify Jon and perhaps some other people, yuk yuk! Actually Enor says she's always wanted one too, and I fully support her getting one herself!

We have a busy weekend coming up: Texas history exhibit at the HMNS; Jon and Rich are gigging at Big Easy Sat. night; and I'm doing the Sunday shift at Job #1.
