Her royal Susan Banshee-ness turned 51 on Tuesday the 28th....Errr, I posted this on Tuesday the 28th, but her birthday was monday the 27th...and I did know that. so there.

1. Ollie & Breeb
2. the redneck wig returns

a quick trip over to Tinkham with Tommy, Bree, Rob & Oliver. Nice. I wish we would have stayed all weekend instead of just overnight, though.

...a lot of stuff going on. a lot of randomage to explain here, but it's a mess. it'll be much easier to explain after the fact, so...CHEERS! Enjoy your 3 day weekend.


also, TanQ is fine. 10 days of anti-biotics and she'll be peachy. and, she's a slut. our vet is a very handsome young gentleman and she didn't make a single noise as he manhandled her and then carted her off for shots. when he handed her to me she resisted, like she wanted to go home with him instead. I can't blame her: I did, too.

This is Bogey. He is Mike & Kevin's new pug. They had a pug named Wilbur but he passed away last month. very sad. Bogey is tiny and cute. and he bites. a lot.

the Amazing Grace Joens is 60 today. Hert new album, Corporate Canibal, is due out this August. but don't hold your breath: her last 2 albums have yet to be released.

TanQ lost another fang this weekend, so she's down to one lower fang. it's freaking me out, though she doesn't seem to mind, nor has it effected her swine-like appetite. we must get to the vet although I'm terrifed of some awful prognosis. my vet mentioned cancer sometimes makes their teeth fall out. shit shit shit.

What? it''s not like I'm asking for much? that much? Curses!

one of my favorite humans ( Marika or Muhr-eekaH ) had a birthday type party last week, so we trotted up to the Ravenna District (ha) and celebrated with a gaggle of good time drinking friends. it was a great time, even if phil collins ended up on the turn table.

1st single from my favorite album of 2008 (so far). I've waited like 6 years for this album and it's well worth the wait.

Madge is finally coming to the Seattle area and by area I mean up north in canada, Vancouver. I have never seen her live and she hasn't been in Seattle since 1990. I hope we can get tickets.

should be fab. this is the 5th or 6th time I'm seeing her. Thanks, Tommy!

I was embarrassed for myself after reading that last post and am proud to reveal that I am now listening to another late-night standby - the Sundays "Blind".

I am so hip circa 1993.

my computer was blessed with a rogue bogus anti-spyware program called awola a few days ago. It's a bitch and a half to get rid of. manual removal is suggested and so far it has eaten up about 9 hours of my life...and I still have it!

at the moment, I am moving 68 gigs of music files onto an external harddrive so the removal program doesn't take 4 hours to scan that music folder again. it's been moving for an hour and it says there's another 240 minutes to go, YAY.


sure, I'm typing this on the laptop Andre gave me but I hate laptops. I hate this little screen and the retarded little pad for a mouse. someday I'll grow up and just have a cute little laptop and everything on external drives and I won't have the computer and giant monitor and keyboard on my breakfast bar and I will sit and eat breakfast there instead.
but for now, I'll just bitch about awola and type on this little keyboard and listen to tanQ! squeek at me because she hates the [ artist deleted in shame ] cd that I have been playing late at night because I am secretly an old woman.

that is all.
