Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Plei or any other Seattle-istas, do you know anything about Tractor Tavern? Is it a decent place to catch a show?

Never been, but I hear it's decent.

So sorry for your loss, DCJ.

I haven't been to that venue in about 10 years, so I can't give you a relevant answer. I've been told it's decent.

Daniel, I'm so sorry for your loss.

Beverly, we went to another vineyard today, then drove into Provincetown, and now we are taking our tine headed home. It's about a 3 hour drive, but we'll probably stop along the way.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

sj, you're married!

Daniel, condolences to your mom, Ray's family

Yes, what Bev said. I am glad that your mom and Ray had some lovely time in each other's lives and I am sorry for her loss.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I set up my new electric keyboard! (Birthday present from parents.) I think I need to rearrange my furniture to make room for it. Also, after setting it up, I'm kind of too tired to really learn how to use it. I played a few songs to get the feel of it, but even though I've played piano since I was in first grade or so, I've never really played a keyboard before, so there are all these new buttons and features to figure out. Also, good thing recycling day is tomorrow, because this thing has a ton of packaging.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Cool!

I was forced to take piano lessons as a kid but kinda rebelled against it. I've been working on this song commission for the past week and having to do it (rather than just having to find the discipline to practice just on principle) has really helped me learn the keyboard/software and get a bit more dextrous.

I'm glad you got such a cool present, Hil. I hope you have a lot of fun with it.

I found the box where I'd put my piano books. I want to learn more music theory, though -- I don't really know what most of the chords actually mean beyond major and minor, and while I've got no problem picking out the melody to a song I've heard, I really have no idea how to go from that to figuring out what to do with my left hand to make it sound like a song.
