What is it about landing in another city, and then instantly feeling really hungry. When the ladies arrived at our hotel, we were all unanimous in finding a place to get our grub on, and STAT! Every restaurant was packed with people as usual. In the end, we decided to try this crepe place. I'm not much of a crepe person. There was this one choice that sounded almost like a pizza crepe so that's what I ordered. I love pizza!
Happy fobulous birthday to big poppa! He is the best bf evar! I know it sounds like stinky cheese but he really is my bestfriend. He thinks my fong-pay smells like cherries. Haha!
I am so in love with my Stewie. She is so full of all kinds of crazy that it's easy for hours to go by while just watching her antics. I tell my co-worker neighbor buddy an endless amount of Stewie being cute stories. She mentioned something about wanting to see more current pictures of Stewie. So I said alrighty then. The one thing that I've noticed about Stewie is that she seems to really enjoy watching football. The only time that she positions herself thisclose to the telly is when big poppa watches football. And then she just lays there, her head jerking back and forth trying to keep up with everything. A super funny story big poppa relayed to me was this past Sunday, he was watching football. What else is new? And of course, Stewie was laying right in front and watching intently. And then, I guess there was some sort of slo-mo replay where they showed the QB throwing a pass. As the telly zoomed onto the football, Stewie suddenly jumped up and put both her paws up. Big poppa swore that if it were a real football, Stewie mos def would have caught the football in her scrawny arms. So FUNNY! That little girl may be a meanie at times, and she has these big scary eyes that make her look, special, but I love her for all the weirdness that she is. My pit Tino is a big baby and tends to constantly whine really loudly. It's something that I think that Stewie is starting and trying to pick up on because she NEVER meows. Instead, she makes this weird grunting noise which I think is her trying to mimic Tino's whine. I dunno. I'm an animal lover. People like me tend to make up things that only makes sense to us. Haha!
I am completely envious of those artists out there who have the ability and musical sense to simply write great songs, one after the other. I'm not sure if Joseph Arthur is one of those guys but you know what, he's been cranking out albums like mad! And in any case, the fact that he does write his own stuff, he's got my respect. I wish I had that talent. I'm sure I've mentioned that before. I read something that made me laugh about his experience of writing music as a child.
"I couldn't play along with my records, so that's why I started writing my own. The keyboard had a sequencer so I started writing these little electronic music things. I thought I was a genius, and I would play them for my mom. And she'd be like, 'It sounds like Chinese music,' and it would crush me. I wanted her to say, 'That's the most genius thing I've ever heard."
Chinese music? Hilarity! I can't even tell you what Chinese music sounds like. And I'm even more curious to hear what he played for his mum. And no, he's not a Brit. I just like talking like one. The song on my blog is from an album way back from 2000. Can you remember how you prepared for the new millennium? Or was Y2K just another day?
Side note: In the midst of writing this blog, I managed to order some grey suede boots. Seriously?!? How does that happen!!! Somebody stop me! They better frackin' fit my feet. And my fat calves. I guess now I have proof that I'm an excellent multi-tasker when it comes things unrelated real work.
