Friends took me to a dive punk rock bar on my 21st, then to a "rising star" concert sponsored by a local radio station, with bands they thought might become something: Mother Love Bone, Soundgarden, and Jane's Addiction.
Right. Piano. Because that's what we used to kill that big demon that one time. No, wait. That was a rocket launcher.

They thought right!

The high today is going to be 46. I'm going to have to turn the heat on.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
I did the "hit a real bar" at midnight, went to work still kinda sloshed, and then I don't recall if we went out that night or not. I say real bar because we used to hang out at the E club on base - the over 18 club for enlisted sailors (and marines). Sure, we drank there too - but that didn't count.
But the drinks of choice after midnight were flaming orgasms (my husband was out at sea, so obviously I needed those) and butterscotch schnapps (cause it is hilarious to try to say butterscotch schnapps after you have had a few).

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I think my then-boyfriend took me out and bought me a drink on my 21st birthday. I wasn't in much of a celebratory mood, as my best friend was in the hospital, in the ICU back in her hometown.

We actually set a fire in the fireplace last night because it got down into the low 50s. And my son is a pyromaniac.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Have walked for Alzheimer's and eaten lunch, and now there's the full afternoon in which to do stuff. But will I?? Probably not much. The one thing I have to do is go buy nail polish remover.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
89° in Chicago. It's cooler than it was yesterday.
