I just got back from watching “No Regrets” Blues Band at Knickerbocker. they were quite amazing. It wasn’t too bad going stag. I wrote a bunch of “songs” while sitting there. Funny, because I almost took that sheet of paper out of my purse, but decided to leave it. It was the receipt from the vet. ha *pause to read what I wrote* Mainly snippets. Eh, since I’m going to lose this paper, I may as well share. It’s not like anyone reads this shit anyway.

umm before that, I’ll talk about the band. Harmonica-check, piano-check, electric upright bass-check. Yep, they had everything :) I was getting really sleepy. Music that makes me close my

(I left that typo for your amusement) eyes while drinking alcohol will do that to a person. This old couple that was there my very first time at Knickerbocker, probably almost a year ago was there. I remembered their faces, and I got really excited because they are INCREDIBLE dancers. They did some seductive dance near the end which was borderline weird but we all clapped for them. Eh, I’ll go ahead and share what I wrote about them. Disclaimer: Writing is not my thing, I’m baring my soul here for your amusement.

Every Saturday night
It’s the same ole thing
Me & my guy dancin’ to the blues
Been that a way for 30 years now

We’re the regulars
They know our drinks
And they know our names
We always sit at the same front table

Spin me around & dip me down
Nothing like dancin’ with you dear
Hold me, twirl me
I only dance like this with you…

I actually wrote a rhythm to that one. Yes, I was bored and decided to explore other careers.

My next piece was from listening to the band talk before the show

Bought it in 1973 for $300
It’s closer to me than most of my kin
I left home tonight with it by my side
It’s all I got left

And then this was going to be the rest of the song, but I finished and realized it had nothing to do with whatever I bought in ‘73

Been doin’ a lot of sittin’
Been doin’ a lot of nothin’
Time for some changes ‘round here

I wonder if smokin’
would get me through today
I’ve seen it save lives before, you know?
Or maybe dancing could save my soul
but I lost my partner long ago

So I’m sittin’ in this orange booth
Lettin’ the vibes flow through
I count on these rhythms to recharge my soul

Yesterday’s always closer than tomorrow
Gotta break these chains
I’m settin’ out on my own tonight
Finally headin’ in the right direction

And then there was this couple sitting behind me, and I was seriously ready to tell the guy to shut the hell up, but the lady seemed to be enjoying him. I didn’t get it, so I wrote this instead. It might actually work as a funny song.

Great music. Great place.
But god, I tell you, my date is lame
Talkin’ ‘bout shit 3 years old
What the fuck, do you ever shut up?

OMG did you just say “sugar mama”?

Heaven knows I’m lonely
And desperate for a mate
But Jesus, do I have to settle for this?

Beautiful night. beautiful _____.
But god, I tell you, my date is lame

Then I broke in to more sappy poems and musings. hmm, I apparently wrote this one right to left:

Sitting next to you (I know)
everything feels alright
Holding your hand (I know)
it’s all good

Your smile speaks
a million words to me
And something in your eyes
gives me hope for tomorrow

I find myself liking you more everyday
maybe more than I should
But there’s no stoppin’ what I’m feelin’

Not sure if you ever think about me
he same way I think about you
But darlin’, that’s ok

I trust you completely
for no obvious reason
Always been one for trusting my gut
so I just dance along to this beat

Still searchin’ for the when, where, and how
to tell you what I’ve been thinkin’
Our time together ends so soon
I fear I’ll never get the chance
to share this all with you

So many dreams,
they take over my reality
Runnin’ out of days of sanity
holding this from you is just too much to handle

Not sure how memories of you
got tied to everything I know
I don’t even know your middle name
yet it seems I’ve known you an eternity

Another stupid one:

Sippin’ on my Smirnoff
Feelin’ blue
cuz I’m needing you
and darlin’, you just ain’t around

Thought listenin’ to some tunes
would cure my ills
but it ain’t done nothin’
but make me want you more

Not sure what it is about you
that makes me feel right,
makes me feel good
but I know I want it around all the time

you girls can call me needy
eh, what the hell, you might be right
but I really don’t give a damn
cuz I like being happy and he gets me there

Okay well that’s officially my most embarrassing post ever. No, Evan, just because you ditched me doesn’t mean I was writing horrible love poems about you hehe :) Just wanted to make that clear. But yeah, people, I was bored during “breaks”. Then there was that annoying boy and writing was the only way to keep me from taking him out. Seriously, I’d had one drink, I was super woman.

Now I’m home and sleepy but loving my red sweater. I was smokin’ tonight haha. Oh yeah, there was this really obnoxious guy there who totally thought he was awesome. He just wasn’t worth my precious limited writing space, though.

Some lady opened the stall on me. Seriously, if the door’s shut, fucking knock. Stupid me, it caught me so off guard that I said “sorry” too. Ugh. At least I heard so really good music, though. I would have stayed longer had they been playing at my house. Live music at my house would be nice. I’d actually fall asleep.

OMG just got a PM from this guy on purdueonline.com. He PMed me the other night and never replied to my reply (ahem because I was trying to sound dumb so he’d leave me alone). Ugh well he’s like “what are you up to tonight?” wtf dude, fuck off, stupid lonely nerd boys *pause* umm maybe I don’t have much room to talk there so uh “fuck off, stupid never reply to my reply and then act like we’re friends” boys.

I’m sleepy, if that weren’t already obvious from my rambling. Hope you read this soon. I have a feeling half of it will be deleted in the morning, so only my hardcore followers will read it aka no one :) Yay, I’m too awesome. Go me. G’nite.
