wait just one more shot

Answer me with silence

The whole time I was standing in the rain freezing my hands off, I was singing this song. So now it has been going through my head over and over again.

It is now about 6am and I just woke up from an exhausting sleep. I forgot to blip yesterday . Actually I didn't forget. I came home from my gig and fell down on the bed face down and went to sleep. I have woken up in my dress, stockings and with my boots on.
You see I took 4 ibuprophen. Thanks Ingrid..... My back was hurting and I know I sang way too hard last night. Yes, we sang in a Kleenex box last night.
What I mean was that we walked into a room with huge rugs on the floor and acoustic tiles on the ceiling. Big colorful banners hung on the wall. This was a space designed to muffle and control noise. We all pushed last night. This was Brunswick's artwalk. (About 30 miles away from where I live). After singing we went to dinner.
The waitress put us in a table at the very back. Obviously we are famous not for our music but our hysterical conversations.
I laughed so hard last night. I have no idea about what. (and no I was not drunk.) I just know we laughed and laughed until the tears ran down our faces.
I think now of the times in my life when something happens and you wonder if you will ever feel happiness again. You will. It's that simple....you will. Thursday was my Mom's birthday and it is Mother's Day this Sunday. I am breathing and living. Life continues to go on......

Oh wait I remember, we are talking about having a wig gig. Seriously we found awesome wigs at Oriental Trading Co.
The "ultimate white trash" , "rainbow Mohawk", " neon pink mullet" and this latex thing that is one piece of plastic, (anime) seem to be the big winners...
We even texted Dan and told him he had to wear one. He thinks we are crazy. Go figure!

Today we celebrate my nephew' graduation from St Joseph's college . How proud I am of this wonderful young man. His grandmother would be is I am sure very proud.
Next week is a concert weekend for our chorus. Every night packed and I have Thursday, Friday and next Monday off. I can't wait.

Crazy week. Crazy times. Yup life is good.

Have a great weekend all!
