Finally taking a look at the assortment of pictures on my camera. Of those that I want to post, they need to be resized first, so I will work on a few at a time.

I had already pretty much forgotten about the rainbow pictures taken on Hallowedding; I know some of you saw it too.

And here we have the rainbow before the reception as seen from North and Delaware:

It was a rather nice to see a sizable arc to the rainbow tather than just bits of it.

Moving on...

Saturday Fugazi-Cathode Ray-Frizzies excursion was fun, thanks for coming out! Good to see:

and non e friends, Bill, Damian, Lynn & Nina :)

My ears were a bit deaf and my voice hoarse by the end of the night; I forgot how fluid conversations can be a challenge in bars. Nonetheless we managed.

I vaguely remember being thoughtful over an existential moment at Frizzies.

Got home late, crawled into bed by 5ish, and slept on on off till noon. The rest of the day I felt fine other than a little sleepy and generally lacked motivation to do anything despite the sunny day. I vegged out and watched a few movies and chatted on the phone; two things I rarely do. A restful day even if a bit of a boring day.


Now it is Monday and there is so much to do (as with anybody reading this). It is the day that kicks me in the ass towards identifying all that needs to be done and usually puts me back on the track from anything that was left behind last week (or completely derailed over the weekend). I'm always amazed at how many emails come in on Monday mornings.

hmmm, I'm thinking of heading out to a comfy coffee laden hot spot to do some work and/or writing/reading. Where and when will depend on my focus. Damn, coffee sounds so good right now.

But first, a walk.It has been refreshing to walk through the park kicking through the fallen leaves. I haven't been doing the gym thing in some time, so at the very least, a walk is part of my daily routine. But I need to do so much more, so gym time will be made priority in my daily schedule. Not sure what has been keeping me from it as it feels so good to go.

This week I abide to decrease the lazy, increase the productive; to cliche my self and go from derailed to back on track. *nods*

Just a reminder (e:theecarey,50230) that if you want direction on something to do, then give the following a whirl:

Fugazi 9pm until.. ?
(503 Franklin between North and Allen)
I'm going to hang out there for a little while, have a drink (I'm ordering a Martini for sure!), some conversation, laughs and what not and then...

Cathode Ray/Allen Street bar crawl/stumble, for more of the same!

weeee!

Stop out and say hi, stay for a drink, you know what to do!

Not sure how late I will actually be out, but that is the loose plans for the night. yay!

See you soon!

Hadn't heard this song in some time and just happened to catch it on the radio while driving earlier (what a great day, right?!). Turned up the volume, window was cracked to let in the breezy warmth and I danced a little behind the wheel. Good stuff.

R&B artist Gwen McCrae, singing with her sultry voice, "Rockin' Chair"



The song is from 1975.
The video appears to be a 2008 performance.

Rarely do I post lyrics and today is one of those times.

Rockin' Chair

Sexy baby, good loving daddy
Let me be your rocking chair
Just rock me away from here
Let's get in on; come to me baby
Let me be your rocking chair
Just rock me away from here

Let your arms shelter me from all hurt and pain
Light my heart with your everlasting flame

Sexy baby, good loving daddy
Let me be your rocking chair
Rock me away from here
Let's get it on; come to me baby
Let me be your rocking chair
Rock me away from here

Rock me gently;
Make me feel like a cloud in the sky
Whisper softly;
Let my heart take wing and fly

Sexy baby, good loving daddy
Let me be your rocking chair
Just rock me away from here
Let's get it on; come to me honey
Let me be your rocking chair
Rock me away from here

Just rock me baby
In my rocking chair, baby
All night long till the morning comes
Just you, baby
Just rock me hun; rock me baby
Till the midnight hour
In my rocking chair
All night long
Come on baby, sexy baby
Let me be your rocking chair
Just rock me away from here
Come on baby, sexy honey
Let me be your rocking chair
Just rock me away from here
Rock me baby
[ Rockin' Chair Lyrics on ]

I'm kind of in the mood for drinks on and around Allen Street area.. I'm thinking Cathode Ray. It has come up in conversations a few times in as many days, and now I am feeling the need to embark on a little trip out there. Usually if I am out that way, I am on the other side of Allen. It has been awhile for any of it and I would like to see who is out and what is new, different and the same.

You know how that goes.

So, does Cathode still make super strong drinks in those giant glass canning jars? Mmmmm

Is Fugazi still open (on Franklin)? Would be nice to start off with a Martini.

I'm thinking Saturday night.

What are ya'll up to? If in the mood to get social-drunk-crazy-whatever- perhaps make it an unofficial-semi official event?

Supposed to be not freezing that day, so, I say lets get out there!
