Hey Beth, how come you weren't at the whiskey pingpong tournament last weekend? Could it be that you're... chicken! buck buck buck

That's right, i said "buck buck buck"

Also, could i borrow that green sweater again for next weekend? Thanks, chicken.

I mean *you*, not *me*. Chicken that is.

So to summarize: you = chicken, me = not chicken + need to borrow green sweater

Woohoo! A new CD coming up in the next couple months! I am very excited and eager to get my hands on it :-)

And, I am sure that you are even more excited than I am :-) Very cool news, Beth! Since I live out on the East Coast, I haven't been able to get to any of your shows and I have been dying to hear more of your music.

What a wonderful news to be greeted with in the morning.

Have a wonderful day!

Hello, Beth! I just wanted to drop by and say how much I continue to enjoy "My Glass Eye" :-)

I hope that all is well with you and I continue to bemoan the fact that you are on the opposite side of the country, just a bit too far to stop by one of your shows.

All the best to you and take care!
