The 31st. But our son was 9 days early.
Your Dad's not busy enough and needs something else to occupy his idle time
No kidding! I had, like, 20 minutes of free time last week.
Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Cor, that's not even enough time for a game of Cities and Knights! Tragic.

The 31st.
That's my 2nd niece's birthday! She'll be 6 this year. A good day for second borns. (Although I hope your one comes a little earlier if Mrs. Indurstries is ready!)

I know! (sob)

We are so very ready. Except for the whole "having everything ready" aspect of being ready. Is there a condition for being ready to have something finished even if you know you are, in some ways, unprepared for it?

well I'm sure the Germans have a word for it!
(I know EXACTLY what you mean anyway)
In random music related news, I found this flickr group today: [link]
(super random because I found it in relation to my friend asking how I felt about "crusty old guys" because she was thinking she might try to set me up with someone from lungfish. hahaha)
Anyway, I need to find a scanner and upload a ton of old pictures!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I can think of no better form of psychotherapy for inpatients at a mental health center than a live concert by the Cramps. See for yourself. >[link]eta: Apparently, the video was taken in 1978....

Ahhh, the infamous Napa mental institute concert.
I used to watch that video back in the early eighties.

Do you know the story behind it? Like, how did they get that gig? How did it go over? (At least some patients were inspired to dance. OTOH, one can be seen reading a newspaper.)

The Cramps thought it would be a legendary thing to do. (Which apparently it has turned out to be.)
And the mental hospital thought, "Hey! Free music. Why not?"
As you can see in the video several of the inmates hopped around and seemed to enjoy themselves. If I'm not mistaken one of them comes up to the microphone and sings along with Lux. They don't have a stage - they just play on the floor of the cafeteria, I think.
