It was a good show! Transistions were smooth in the main and I even had some of the sets planned out ahead of time. It was nice to hear from a few friends on the phone. Thanks for listening.
Thanks to Diane for hangin' out with me while Chuck was preparing for his slot. Diane is also responsible for requesting Piece a Pie. She was howling with laughter... She'd only heard it once before. Funny shit, mang.
Well, I should go. I need to drive 50 minutes north to the inlaws house... a strange bed awaits.
goodnight

Monday Night Date
Gillian and I had a wonderful date tonight. Mommy was working at the diaper service, so we were on our own. My original plan was to go for a night-time run around Capitol Lake, but it was too cold for that, even with Gillie all bundled up like a cozy burrito.
So we decided to wing it. I drove and she "sang." We left my work and drove downtown and called Jenny Jenkins who I haven't seen in a long time. She wasn't home so I left a message. I wasn't exactly sure where we were going at this point but then we saw Domenica walking along State street. We whipped into the parking lot of that place where christians scare girls out of abortions and flagged down D. It turns out that her car is on the fritz and she was headed to the bus stop and downtown. I offered her a ride in the bed of the truck and she thought that that sounded like a lot of fun since she'd never ridden in the back of a truck before. Breakin' the law! When we got down to the library we parked next to this van with a dismantled airplane on the top of it. No shit. Really. It had a cockpit and everything. You think I'm kidding. I couldn't make up something that good. Not something you see everyday.
The library was great. Gillie made friends with a vivacious mom as soon as we walked in the door. She's so social. Domenica went off to study and Gillie and I found a Bill Bryson audiobook that I haven't heard yet. I'm excited to start another of his works. He's a great writer (Unlike me.)
Again, I was sort of at a loss of what to do when I left the library. Gillian was kind of grumpy and wanted something to do. That much was obvious. She gets really bored with being at home and riding in the car. Like I just said, "she's social." "Social! That's it," I thought. She needs a buddy! So I called my friend Melissa who's got a little boy that's a month younger than Gillie. Sure enough, they thought that a little play-time sounded like a nice idea, but they were just getting ready for dinner so I had to kill a half an hour.
Again, I started driving without knowing where I was going. Hmmm... They were sitting down to diner... "So should we!" So I pulled into the Old School pizzeria parking lot and we were on to the next adventure of the night.
We had a nice time. Daddy got a beer and a slice and Gillie had tons of fun flirting with one of the dudes that works there. She's so social! She also ate an entire jar of pears. mmmmmmm...
On the way to Melissa's Jenny called me back. She was sorry that she'd missed the chance to hang out with us. That's the problem with spontaneity; you never know when it's gonna work out for you.
Gillian and Keenan played alongside each other but I wouldn't say that they played with each other. Gillie's idea of playing with another child usually consists of taking whatever toy it is that said playmate has. Fun all around. Gillie did like Keenan's dad, Patrick, however. She gave him some of Keenan's toys and it was "all good" as they say. We partied hard for about 20 or 30 minutes and then it was time to go home.
Gillian konked out in the truck on the way home and this is what she looks like now. She's out! Fun times.

No new post,
but there's a new fancy flash button linking to my flickr account. I stole the idea from Raymi. So there.P.S. > What the hell is this thing I saw on the beach a couple of years ago? Anyone know?
Some kind of transluscent jellyfish. With the consistancy of a gummy bear. I didn't touch it... No effin' way!

The Toast (inspired) Post
Toast reminded me that I have a blog. I must post. What must I post? I dunno.
It's been a nice week... Lots of nice family time over the weekend. I'm just kind of stressed about money and the overwhelming lack of free time that is my life. But it's weird. I had all kinds of "free time" while driving all around western Washington this weekend but you can't really do much on the road. I don't want to sound like a whiner, (though I am) but everything just seems so fucking hard today. Go away Monday, go away!
Anyway... Tomorrow is a new day and I've got my radio show on Wednesday night. That should be fun. I was going to try to get together some sets of music in advance on my computer at home so that I'm not so frantic when I'm actually at the show, but I find that: (1) I have no fucking free time and (2) I feel like a painter without an easel when I don't have a stack of CD's and a big broadcast mixer. Freeform radio is easy and natural to me. Anyway... I guess if I had all my music in the computer and didn't have to digitize everything just to put it together it'd be less daunting too.
I remember the good ol' days of making mixed tapes when I was 19 or 20... It was so all consuming. I don't have a 5 hour block of time to devote to a mix tape anymore. It's sad. I used to make a new mixed tape for myself every xmas consisting of all my favorite stuff that I'd been listening to for the past year. Now that seems like an unbelievable amount of work to put into something that doesn't bring in money or fix my house or car or bump-a-dump-bump-a-dee-doo-da, etc...
Blah freakin' blah.
I love you all. Thanks for reading. We'll return to our regularly scheduled efervescent self soon. Stay tuned. After these annoying messages.
