So...a few weeks ago, while out with some friends, I ran into my friend Ty. (I've mentioned him here and there on LJ before, but probably not lately.) After we greeted each other with a smile and a warm hug, he confessed that he had a...well...confession. He said that he had been thinking about calling me, and wanting to hang out sometime, but wasn't sure if that would be "inappropriate". (While they aren't close friends or anything, he and Ryan work for the same employer. Ty builds and repairs stringed instruments.)

We've hung out together, both one on one and in groups several times in the past, so I said that I'd be more than happy to hang out again, and that I was pretty sure a phone call never hurt anybody. ;)

Happy 4/20, to those who celebrate it. ;)

Appropriately, Ginger Presley is playing at a bar called "The Joint" tonight. It'll be dope, dudes. ;p

Playing guitar at Wednesday's gig (on 3 songs) went great, so I shall do the same from here on out! :D

Hi El-Jay! *waves*

Wow, I'm not even sure where to begin...

Life is a wild ride right now, and I'm doing my best to hold on tight and enjoy it.

( Band Stuff )

Friday night was the first gig for Ryan's new band, Booger Presley. (Not to be confused with my new band, Ginger Presley, lol.)

They had a huge turn out, and they kicked ASS. It's always very exciting for me, the first time I get to see Ryan perform in a new band, so I had a lot of fun.

Boy, am I glad that is over! :x

Friday night, I hosted a ladies night (later named Vag Fest) at my house. Out of the 30-some women I invited, 4 showed up. Even though it was a small group, we're all pretty awesome vagina owners, so we had a blast. We barely put a dent in all of the food I made, which meant that I didn't really have to cook for the rest of the weekend, lol. We ended up heading to a bar near my house, and eventually ended up down-town, after which Lisa and I were driven home by a cab driver who thought my name was Chihuahua. That was a first. After I arrived home, I ended up staying up until the wee hours of the morning chatting with adudeabides and yayheaven.

My experiences Friday evening got me pondering on why I often find it challenging to develop close friendships with women. I'll save those ponderings for another day, though.

A special thank you to adudeabides, yayheaven, and lotus_n_my_hair. Whether or not you realized it, you made my lonely weekend a lot less lonely. You are wonderful friends. :)

Today, it's back to the grind at work. Both my manager and supervisor are out this week, so I'll likely be signed on to the LJ Chat thing-o (the only IM I can use at work) most of the week. Hit me up! :D

I'm going to spam you with posts for the next couple of days to make up for my absence later this week. You've been warned. :p

I will apply liberal use of LJ Cuts.

This was a pretty fantastic weekend.

Happy Monday, y'all, I hope your weekends were all as fantabulous as mine! :)

:) I think hope its been a while since I've posted while intoxicated. Pretty sure I haven't used this icon in a while.

I had a nice Friday night. :) Ordered pizza with Lance, talked him in to going to Ryan's gig with me for a teensy weensy bit to meet up with my mom and step-dad, stopped at a different bar to see a different band at his request on the way back to his house. Lovely, lovely. He is SUCH a tease sometimes. He best be careful, lest he bite off more than he can comfortably chew. ;)

He asked me to come in when we got to his place because he didn't want me to be alone when it officially turned my birthday and he wanted to give me my first birthday hug. (I took a few extra ones too.)

Total cuteness when he meant to ask "Is there anything I can get for you?" and instead asked "Is there anything I can get from you?" He was rewarded with a very mischevious look.

I am feeling especially gushy.

I sure wish Ry would get home for some birthday snuggles.

Have a good weekend y'all.



Edit: Ryan has arrived home and has thrilled me with a "stunning" rendition of "Happy Birthday".
