i wanna die (but not right now)

i was hoping to find a youtube video for the hubble bubble song used above as a title, but no luck. lest you guys think i am being morbid and depressed, let me assure you that i was just singin' at you.

still sick (day #28). it's blowing my mind that i've been sick this long. josh is doing a great job of taking care of me: cooking dinner every nite, making special stops at the store for sick supplies, and even dishing out hugs and kisses left and right with wreckless abandon as though he has NOT ONE SINGLE FEAR of getting sick himself. what a wonderful one. you got that right, marvin gaye.

the other day i told josh i wanted a baby. he wasn't surprised, cuz i say it all the time. however, this time instead of giving me a nervous smirk and making some kind of wisecrack, he told me, "you know they're gonna be a little demon just like me when i was little, right?" apparently josh was prone to fits of rage in public where he would kick and scream for "DONALD FRY FRY!" (french fries from mcdonalds) until he got his way. he also told me recently that if we were to have a kid, he would let them roll around in the mud whenever they wanted to and dress up like a werewolf even if it was the middle of summer. even if its a girl. if i thought josh was a handful, i can hardly wait to see what life is like with a josh jr. in the picture.

speaking of josh, i noticed the other nite that we have some of our best conversations ever when we are laying in bed at nite, giggling in the dark. i love that.

this weekend my faux-niece will turn 1 year old! i can't believe time has gone by so quickly and i have been her nanny for this long already. it's cute that she is fairly attached to me since i am at her house so often...i love her to pieces!



in other news, today is jerry lee "the killer" lewis's 75th birthday -- awesome! hope he's gettin down with his bad self.

i'm not dead

i've just been sick for over three weeks.

so basically, i might as well be dead. this bites.

gentleman jesse/strange boys show tonite. so long as i can move, i'll be there.

more later, i hope...

more of the same, plus jesco

i've just been busy working, working, and working. in my (rare) free time, i also managed to score a stack of awesome soul records, dance to old country records with my wonderful boyfriend, hang with some of my friends in touring bands, and hug the guts outta josh. oh yeah, and SEE JESCO WHITE, THE DANCING OUTLAW! go ahead, be jealous.























mamie even made the trip!

so life is good. josh and i are awesome. the new job (and the old one) are great. so far i've still been able to make it to shows when a band i want to see is in town, and i haven't missed any due to work yet. i WAS disappointed when jesco's friend (acting as tour manager) asked if i wanted to hang out before the show and take them around town but i had to decline due to work. BUMMER. i miss going out junkin with josh all the time, but somehow both of us still manage to get our fix and come home with little treasures here and there. this past week i got to see friends when jesco rolled through town, as well as my dudes from daily void and wizzard sleeve later in the week. this weekend friends from australia will be in town when the uv race plays here and i'm excited to finally meet them.

the lack of free time has had me considering closing up an etsy shop (or two) or shutting down the blog, but these are things i really don't want to do unless things get TOO intense. at this point i'm just slow getting to everything, which i hope anyone who cares can be patient with. for the time being, i know i just gotta keep on keepin' on. after all, if you wanna get to heaven, you gotta raise a little hell!
