I've Finally Got It

All these years, Albina, among others, has been bugging me to write a book. I've thought about it. I mean, I'm a pretty good writer when I want to be -- or not. Anyway, I've thought about using the whole Nana thing, but Anne Tyler did it in Dinner at the Homesick Restaurant. I thought about Jack, but Mitch Albom did it in Tuesdays With Morrie. Then of course that one guy did it with Marley and Me--you know, my Lia story. Everyone else is making money off of my life stories :)

So what if I use someone else's life? I could, I suppose. But, who could possibly be more interesting than me? :) Um, pond scum?

But I digress. I think I've got it. I have a story, but will it have a happy ending? Probably not. Not sharing more--just can't.

Went to Milwaukee (or "mil-i-wa-kay", as Alice Cooper would put it). David Pirner is just about totally hot! He was definitely having fun. It was such a great time! Very, very, small crowd--maybe about 200 people. I can't speak for Steve, but I had a blast! Milwaukee is a cool town. Steve kept saying he had fun--even Saturday night he said so. Expensive hotel, but we both agreed THAT was worth it. I think we may have stalled too much over the last month, but really -- it WAS worth it. I just had a great time and for the 4th time seeing Soul Asylum, that was just PERFECT. Love, love, LOVE that band.

Gotta go.

Random Catch-Ups

Let's see ... he loved me once ... maybe he does, now. Mom & Dad = about to be homeless. Me = jobless and about to be homeless. Lia = beautiful, but about to be homeless and 2 years old.

Applied for lots of jobs. We'll see.

I hate school and don't even want to write another paper.

Feel pretty good most of the time. Losing a little more weight -- on a hunger strike -- have no appetite.

I need a job.

Nana = living in bug-infested shit hole and won't move. One of us is about to call whatever department we can to turn her selfish, egotistical, stingy ass in.

Going to see Soul Asylum in Milwaukee later this month.
