I got gripes.

So, I got gripes. Not really, but why not?!?

I had a wonderful conversation with a friend Amanda. She was telling me that I should go to my 10 year High School reunion. I am not interested in going. Does that make me seem like a stick in the mud?

Also, to all you liberals out there in "e-strip" land have you checked out my new favorite show on msnbc??! The Rachel Maddow Show? I love her. She is the butch dyke of my dreams! Much to my girlfriends chagrin I have been walking on air since I found out it was on! YAY! I think it is everyday at 9pm. I heart her!

Lastly, I got my Ani tickets for her show in Babeville on 11/29. I am very excited cuz I like her a lot! Also, because I am just not enough of a lesbian, I am volunteering for the Melissa Ferrick show in the 23rd. I get a free ticket! Huzzah! So, if anyone is going to the show I will be there possibly selling stuff.

Thanks for pointing out Rachel... wow, she's hot... and according to wikipedia, smart too. :::link::: Too bad I don't watch tv...

We were so sick of the school, the teachers and each other that we couldn't wait to get out and I think it might be safe to say that (save a small handful of overzealous schoolsters or inadvertent neighbours), none of us is even in contact with anyone else from high school.

If we ever virtually planned a 10 year reunion, I guess it would have been this year. But well, I didn't even think of the concept till this post. Talk about reunion spirit!

Oh, and a bunch of intentionally didn't go to the prom (or "Farewell" as its called back home) either.

It's a good thing too, because the people I hung out with could hardly be bothered to come to school when they were enrolled, much less ten years later when it's optional.

Also: the people who have enough school spirit to come back in ten years? Totally lame. Fuck'm.

Hello!

So, I saw this clip on youtube and it made me incredibly happy and nostalgic. Anyone else remember "Showtime Pizza"? It is was a pizza place like Chuck E Cheese. It had this band called the "Rock A-Fire Explosion". Some guy bought the band and you tubed them doing current music. I remember going there and it just made me happy! So, I hope this makes other people happy! Also, I wanted to say hello to Matthew!
