We got the beat

Last week, my good friend Olivia called me to let me know that she had won tickets to the Go-Go’s concert, and would I like to accompany her?

Free concert?  Outdoors at Chastain Park?  To see a band I hadn’t thought about in years and years but kind of rocked and had several songs I enjoyed?

SIGN ME UP!

To be honest, growing up I just missed the peak of the Go-Go’s.  This tour was for the 30th anniversary of their first album.  I was…four.

Some of you are rolling your eyes at how young I am.  Others are wondering if I watch NCIS because I am SO OLD.  The rest of you are my age.  FIST BUMP!

HOWEVER, I was not the youngest person there by far – plenty of the 20′s and teens were in attendance.  There was a lot of awkward white people dancing and we even spotted a couple black dudes!  They were probably lost.

Olivia and I classed up the place by picking up a six-pack of lemon Jeremiah Weed malt beverage and some Subway sandwiches.

We were ignorant, classless HOARS compared to other people there.  There were tables!  With tablecloths!  And votive candles and floral centerpieces.  Wine bottles!  (dammit, we had assumed glass bottles were verboten!) Cheese plates!  Man.  Next concert I go to at Chastain park, I am going to be PREPARED.  With a BUTLER because I do NOT want to drag all that shit around.

Tonight a night in to relax.

pink nails and pink shawl

I managed to paint my nails the EXACT color of my pink shawl in progress.  Goddammit.  If it gets any more girly pink up in here, I am going to grow another vagina.

  • Thar she blows!

    Large Boobed Friend: So my friend thinks I should get a sleeveless wedding dress.
    All of us: NO WAAAAY!!!
    LBF: Right? I told her, how would I even support my body in something like that, and she said "It's called boning, duh!"
    Me: Oh my god, you'd need, like, the WHOLE WHALE!

    men should take advantage of the lack of dress code rules set for guys and wear mini skirts and tank tops to school every day

    My brother, Aaron, did this once. The principal called my mom to let her know her son wore a skirt to school. My mom said “Well?  Is it against the rules?”  

    The principal got flustered and said, that, well no, it’s not, but that it was causing a distraction and that was against the rules.  Mom wanted to know if she needed to bring him clothes to change into, and the principal said no, Aaron had worn shorts under the skirt, so he just had to take the skirt off.  

    So mom finally asked “Well then why did you call me???”  The principal didn’t really have a good answer to that one.

    Sadie: I HAVE TO GO OUT
    Me: What? You just peed an hour ago. And it's pouring down rain out there.
    Sadie: I HAVE TO POOP
    Me: You hate the rain.
    Sadie: I HAVE TO POOP NOW
    Me: OK then.
    Me: *later, at her pooping spot, in the rain*
    Sadie: I NO LONGER HAVE TO POOP
    Me: What? You were DESPERATE to go, five minutes ago.
    Sadie: I DON'T LIKE THE RAIN. I DON'T HAVE TO POOP.
    Me: I am not falling for this. 10 minutes inside, and you'll be crying to go out again.
    Sadie: NO I WON'T.
    Me: We are staying out here until you poop.
    Sadie: I HATE YOU
