Bringing the E-Bar back

I recently read an article that the original venue for the E-Bar of Pasadena was vacated. E-Bar wants back in. I want E-Bar back in. Now they (E-Bar enthusiasts and past owners) are considering a few different ideas as to what should happen at that location. I think they should come back fullforce (minus the obnoxious band nights) but this is their site: www.theespressobar.org/ and so you can read for yourself. They want to get the word out. So I have created a myspace shrine to their cause. Please please please join up and help bring this wonderful part of Pasadena history back!

I will also be starting a tribe dedicated to the E-Bar in the hopes that even more fans might be reached.

yep....there's full disclosure here.....

So it's time I write this.....

It has been 25 years since I've known Kathryn. Happy Anniversary sweetheart....heh.....honey.....dear.

We've had high points and extremely low points and we lived through all of the bullshit that has come in and eventually out of our lives. That's a fucking accomplishment that many will never get close to.

I love having to explain to new people in my life that whatever they say or do there will be one person in my life that will undoubtedly know all. I could write a novel about us but since our best communication has been nonverbal and known only to us.....fuck everyone else.

Truly great friends are hard to find, difficult to leave, and impossible to forget.

oh, how i love certain phrases from our lovely Firefly.
especially the chinese ones.
like this one:
"Tai-kong suo-yo duh shing-chiou sai-jin wuh duh pee-goo"

*"All the planets in space flushed into my butt"*

dumbass says what??

this is only an example of why i have severe road rage.....

i went into work with my mom this morning. we get to the parking structure and have to walk through a parking lot to get to the building we work at(everyone does this and the 2 lots are affiliated). as we walk out of the structure i look to my right i see this dumb bitch going 20 mph right toward us. i reach out my left arm to stop my mom from walking any further. we wait to see if shes going to stop and she does. we take a few steps and she goes again! we stop. i look at her and yell "ok what the fuck are you gonna do? can we go now?" she stops again. as i'm walking past the front of her car i'm pretty much telling her to learn how to drive and calling her an ignorant idiot. i think i even gave her a "two fingers up with the thumb firmly planted in between the fingers" sign. as we start to leave the area she starts honking at me. so i turned around and started walking toward her car and she was yelling something i didn't understand and so i finally said "look, i know you think you own the world in your mid-level sedan but you don't. and there were a few paragraphs you missed in your drivers manual that says that pedestrians have the right of way.......always! not to mention that when you're in a parking lot the average speed limit is 5mph so you don't fucking hit anyone! you fucking dumbass!" the whole time i'm saying this my mom is in the background chuckling nervously, i'm starting to draw a crowd and the girl in the car is so mortified that she doesn't respond and turns left really quick to get the hell away from me.

now, i have a kid so my tolerance level is pretty high but the one skill that takes hours of studying and behind the wheel time to master and succeed at should not be taken lightly. this bitch has her head so far up her own ass that she dared to do what i doubt she will ever do again.

if i don't educate them....who will?
*shrug*

i'm home....

and it's sad
the only great part of going home is in the picture you see.

gettin the hell outta dodge....

yay!

extravagant retreat

there is absolutely nothing better than brand new sheets. i've been anxiously awaiting their arrival from overstock.com. as soon as they came i popped them into the washing machine to get rid of that dreadful plasticky "new" smell. 45 minutes later I yanked them from the dryer and put them on my bed. first of all....they looked fabulous. pale blue, almost barely blue. second....they felt soft, cold and smelled like fresh linen. needless to say i didn't get back out of bed for a while and i couldn't wait for bedtime last night.

i encourage you all to find and purchase sheet sets and bask in your own personal indulgence. i seriously never think about sheets until i've banned the flat sheet from my bed, lose the 2 pillow cases and wear out the fitted sheet.
