Who I'd like to meet: People who find dancing as much fun as I do (eff you, Standy McStandsters, and your judgmental, you-know-you-look-ridiculous,-right? gaze); People who (generally) don't deal with life as a series of agendas; People who, enigmatically, kind of have it together, yet at the same time, not so much together that there's no flexibility in life; People who want to go see live music and can have an amazing time even if the band is really really ridiculously bad; People that take a while to truly get to know, but who are well worth the effort.
No robots, please.
.. Too Cool For Karaoke April 09 - San Diego Click the link for pictures (and video) from the "Yacht Rock" karaoke show. External video coming soon. Oh, and 'keep the fire burning tonight....'
Here's how much I lag with My Space lately. I just saw the comment you left Adam about the dream with him teaching her that song and the fighter jets and the bombing... Scary! You're only allowed to have awesome dreams about my kid singing! You should have heard her making up songs tonight while we packed boxes. It was some awesome entertainment!
Heya pseudo-rocker! I think Rock Band II is totally worth the money. We played so much over New Year's Eve that I think we broke it... If I were still in the Diego, I would totally join your band.
