What's Goin' On

I skated to Central Park yesterday to hang out and get some sun. I only got about ten blocks and thought I was going to pass out. How could I be so out of shape? I didn't realize how humid it was so I had to sit down and get water in my system. Turns out most people had the sense not to go to the park on such a gross day. I didn't get any tan lines but I left covered in sweat and ready for a nap. Isn't it autumn?

I'm working on a Holiday show with my friend Ava. Previously referred to as A. We went to that music and dramatic school together about seven years ago and then lived together for four years. We have worked on doing a show several times before and never actually performed it. This time I'm really booking the show and if she bails I will just do it by myself. I'm not sure how to pull off the duets but I'll figure it out. The set list is together and I'm excited to get this thing going. We know each other very well and we are a lot alike so it's easy to write. Hopefully everything will go as planned and I can write more about it later on.

No, I have not watched any football.

I'm really sick of/from Politics.

Jay said...

I wouldn't have made it to the corner on skates.

And I'll come do the duets with you if A bails. LOL .. Okay, you'd probably prefer I didn't.

I am really proud that you did outside stuff yesterday. It was one of the most oppressive and humid days. I used that as an excuse to sit on my butt all day and watch football.

Reb said...

I've lost about two octaves in my range, but I'll come sing with you if A bails! ;)

Will you be wearing that outfit? Cuz, I'm there first row... sorry I have a knee-high sock fetish. How lame for a straight girl, eh?

It was bloody HOT and HUMID here in Montreal yesterday too, wth?? Just after we took down all the AC units, too. Bugger.

Thats one of most favorite somgs ever!

Love it!

Take it easy out there in that heat, before you know it, it will zap ya and you'll be sick.

I know exactly what your saying about the politics. It's getting alittle petty and mean now.

I would rather not hear the personal attacks and just give me the facts......only the facts.

Can I make a cameo at the holiday show? I could be Santa Jew if you'd like. Just a thought. Just run it by Ava and lemme know. Thanks hun.

LL said...

That is quite the festive outfit... I think you'd rock it too.

Best of fortune on the new show, I'll bet if you book it, she will come.

Leighann said...

I'm sure the show will be great!

Schmoop said...

I hope the show goes off well. Marvin was da man. Cheers Knight!!

Tink said...

Hot stockings. Is it going to be a burlesque show? ;)

furiousBall said...

for my money, there has been no better voice than Marvin's

Real Live Lesbian said...

I'm lovin' the candy cane stockings! If you wear those to the show, I'm sure you'll have plenty of people volunteering to do the duet!!!! But you won't need them. Ava will come through and it will be a roaring success!

As for the weather, it's fantastic down here in the South. In the 70s all week!
