No really, c'mere!

Here's hoping everyone can avoid the SXSW craziness that is the traffic. I'm going into work early. I've done some clever juggling of days off and will be off Sat-Mon next weekend.

This means I can actually show up at Pup and Oiler's on time (you know how I hate to be "fashionably" late.) And I can spend some quality time with my honey. W00t.

OH! KC will be home Tuesday. I'm so happy! :)

[Sweet_Amor_Taino]

[Ebon]

what is SXSW?

Annual music, film, and interactive conference and festival held in Austin. People come from all over the world. Lot's of famous people running around Austin. It gets crowded on the roads so I try to avoid it. I used to go to stuff though. They have free shows pretty much everywhere with some pretty big names. I used to live right downtown so I could hear some of the music it was nice.

[durrrrrrrr]

Congrats on the unpacking. See you next weekend. :hangloose:thanks, although not sure if my accent stuff matches..lmao.

Yeah it is cool if it's a band or singer you like especially if it's a free show. lol
I don't like crowds either so I'm happy to be wayyyy up north now.

that would of been cool while ya was living downtown to hear that stuff and not have to fight the crowds, traffic.

[Diva]

Having gone downtown yesterday afternoon, I can tell You what SXSW is: INSANITY! <giggle>

But it's a great event if You can afford it!

[Sweet_Amor_Taino]

that would of been cool while ya was living downtown to hear that stuff and not have to fight the crowds, traffic.
I enjoy living in East Central 10 minutes from downtown but out enough for quiet in a gated community with a pool grills and a gym.

My community is of mix race and cultures and Also assessable to three bus lines.

[blush]

Yeah it is cool if it's a band or singer you like especially if it's a free show. lol

Yeah, but if you live in Austin you can see the same bands next week at the same venue for basically nothing.

[Ebon]

Yeah, but if you live in Austin you can see the same bands next week at the same venue for basically nothing.

This is true.

[Arwen]

Or you can live in Austin for nearly 2.5 years and STILL have not heard even one live music event.

WOW. That takes effort! :vigil: How did you manage that? I mean, the friggin' AIRPORT has live music!

[canmarielan]

Wow, I feel like it's been forever since I've had internets. Really it's only been 11 days.

I MISSED Y'ALL!!!!!

[Arwen]

Austin is semi-responsible for Amy Winehouse.

:blink:

On a brighter note, Johnny Cash played one year. So did the White Stripes. Many unknowns play @ SXSW and get signed.

True story!

South by Southwest USED to be the place where good local artists might get signed. It USED to be a showcase for unknown bands, usually from Texas. But then, well-known bands and artists started playing it. So unknown bands were pushed to the smaller venues and lost their audience and the point of the festival. Also, the influx of known artists has driven up the cost of wristbands to the point of being completely out of reach for the average person.

But it is good for tourism.

Well, if we're going to the Dollar Store for more DW glass(es), we might as well stop in for a yummy (margarita) breakfast at Amaya's. It's a rough life ;)

You're such an inspiration, Sissy! :heartbeat:
So I'll take two boxes for the team, TOO! :eyebat:

[Gemme]

I spent roughly 6 hours crafting today and yesterday. Most of that was for shoddy work but the last stuff I did has turned out pretty well. Good enough for Ebon to ask me to paint something to put on our walls, which are still nekkid.

I have this fear that we won't hang it right and those big ole prints and frames will come crashing down. :blink:

I almost got Ebon to the grocery store today. Almost.

I finally got Ebon to HEB, but only by way of the OilyPup's house.

:blink:

I now haz cake and that's all that matters.

[Arwen]

KC arrives today.
I think.
I haven't heard from him.
He doesn't know my address.
Or the gate code.
I'll be at work until 10:15 (at least).
If a tall, cute gayboy lands on your doorstep, please take care of him for me until I get back.

Yes.
He arrives at 12:45AM. I told him that was technically TOMORROW.:hamactor:
Then I asked if he needed a ride. :cigar2:

*faux pout*

WHAT??? You can't come to the do on Saturday???
That is not acceptable.

[Puplove]

Oh, and I have to give a major THANK YOU to that Ebon/Gemme group. At the last minute, with no warning, they hopped in the car and came to our house to dogsit (even thinking they'd have to stay overnight) because we got stuck in snow and slush and canceled flights yesterday.

Now, there are some friends (or suckers. We may have promised more than we could deliver.). We started with who was closest and figured we'd move further out as people were unavailable/working/not home etc.
but we didn't have to go further than the closest ones! Never mind that the neighbor decided to cancel his plans and stay with our pups. I think they had a party in our honor.

And, I have to say, my eyes are permantly stuck up in my head from rolling them at all the hipsters in ultra-expensive designer shabby clothes hooking up on the plane because they're all going to "south-by". Le sigh-by.

[Diva]

Well....I was here, too.....

The Gemme and the Ebon are marvelous people, oh yes they are. Yes, they had a party and I was there. No not really. I hope we hid the broken glass. No not really. D and I will be there Saturday. Yes really.

[Puplove]

We started with the closest -- who knew they'd be so nice? I mean...have you seen Ebon's picture on the FB?

Fortunately for YOU, a neighbor didn't call the police.....

That is not acceptable.

Oh, I'll be there, complete with Ebon in tow. Like you could get rid of me that easily. I just have to wait until we're both off of work and then we'll be there, but this time, we'll turn when we're supposed to and get to your house in half the time, which is really the usual amount of time, for now. :blink:

Good morning everyone:tea:
Ebon, we decided not to go to kiss and fly instead we went out for dinner at Truluck restaurant for sea food. The food was delicious and the service was 4 star. We walked around and watched all the craziness of SXSW and the young kids party. We mature folk were home by mid night.

Happy Sunday

I don't know what it is that Pup made, but it was NOT what I'd been served before as corned beef. It was goood. :tease:

Berry, thank you for allowing me to save you from the key lime pie. It was AWFUL. I did you a favor. Truly. :eyebat:

Thanks, OilyPup, for purposely inviting us again into your home. Ya'll are suckers for punishment...or maybe just suckers...I'm not sure yet but I plan on taking advantage of it as long as possible. We had a blast and enjoyed ourselves immensely, especially the card game (and that's a fact!) Or crap!

Dude, you will be missed! Safe travels and please give Arnold and Honey hugs for me.

Spending the night with you all was a lovely way to welcome Spring.

Hee hee hee -- ancient German recipe for the Irish neighbors (CRAP)

Yep Oiley is a sucker. I'm a flying chicken. CRAP!!! oh, maybe fact.
It was a great gathering of a wonderful group of friends. (FACT) Glad you could come - we might accidentally invite you again (CRAP) oh, I meant purposely. (FACT)

Anybody have an idea to gang up on Dude and force him to stay here? I had to leave on a trip today, but I left stern instructions to Oiley to steal the wheels from his RV and hide Arnold. Let's see if that works. If it doesn't, we better move fast or he'll slip away (FACT!!!! :-( )

[Dude]

until next time:watereyes:
take care of yourselves and each other:twitch:

[shariberry]

Pup, I have to agree that that was the best corned beef I have ever had (Fact). I don't even LIKE corned beef (Fact) and I couldn't get enough (Crap-I ate enough, believe me :) ).

Thanks to you both for hosting another wonderful party, a comfy bed, and a great breakfast!

Dude-Safe travels, and please come back to visit :) I'm a great tire-slasher, but alas, I am stuck here at work. We need to coordinate these things better, Pup!

[Diva]

I would like to apologize to the group at the party Saturday evening for my abrupt departure. It was rude and there is no excuse for it. I have already written to Pup & Oiler, both by PM and by snail mail, to say the same.

Didja get pancakes? Ebon woke up yesterday morning moaning and groaning about pancakes. I offered to drive us back but he said no. Fool. I would have done it too.

We have get~togethers on a fairly regular basis, but I wouldn't say they revolve around happy hours (except for Shari cuz she's a DW :eyebat: )...........but I'm sure we could do something while you're here! Would love to meet you!

Keep us posted as the time draws near. We have folks who will be unable to attend because they work in the evenings, too, so that will be something to consider.

Glad you're comin' into town! You'll adore Austin!

C and I had a great time. :) Sorry we cut out before "Crap or Fact", but you know... :)

This is actually kind of funny (a bunch of hours later) but the Jeep would not go willingly. She didnt like the tow bar and chewed up her tires and then I forgot to put the hitch pin back on to the damn hitch. So, this morning while it was still dark I am draggin the transport by the chains down pup and oiler's
street.

Then, I left some tire marks on the next street because she was locked up on one side and would not roll freely athough very much in neutral.

Then 12 miles out from Fort Stockton a front tire on the rv lost it's re-tread.
Luckily, there was room to limp it along side of highway the next 12 miles ,doing 20ish.There just happened to be a do it all mechanics and tire place just a small way after the exit. Could not find the mongo lugwrench for this bad boy anywhere.They also hooked me up with a used spare.

Reportin live from a very fn noisy(aint never gonna sleep) right on the damn highway Walmart parking lot in El Paso.

Definitely a sign that you should have stayed. It was good seeing you again. Come back soon. Or else.

This is actually kind of funny (a bunch of hours later) but the Jeep would not go willingly. She didnt like the tow bar and chewed up her tires and then I forgot to put the hitch pin back on to the damn hitch. So, this morning while it was still dark I am draggin the transport by the chains down pup and oiler's
street.

Then, I left some tire marks on the next street because she was locked up on one side and would not roll freely athough very much in neutral.

Then 12 miles out from Fort Stockton a front tire on the rv lost it's re-tread.

If you always listen to your tires, they will tell you where you should be going. They grab the road and drag, trying to stop you when you should not be going somewhere.

Next time you come out here, you won't have any trouble with your tires at all.

working tomorrow night on the load in for west side story. and again on the weekend for the load out.

So. I have great memories of making Easter baskets for the group home kids when I was younger (my parents have always been big into the foster home/charity thing) - coloring eggs and putting together baskets for kids who wouldn't have anything else; thinking about how it would brighten their day.

If I found an Alzheimer's home, or a group home nearby, would you want to come the Friday before Easter and help make little Easter baskets for them? Probably a couple dozen or so. It's something I'm thinking about doing this year, maybe throw a little thank you to the universe or whatever for all the good stuff that keeps landing in my lap. Besides, I like to color easter eggs, and it is so much more fun with a purpose and a bunch of people.

Yay or nay? I'd have the eggs, basket makins, jelly beans etc.
Trying to see if it's worth talking about having peeps over (hee get it, peeps?) Send me a PM or text if Yay. That would be Friday evening, Apr 22.

Yes, we could spice it up with some Wii and Fact or Crap or Cranium and adult beverages. Duh.
And of course, you know this house wouldn't have people over without also offering a buttload of food (that's a nice image, huh?) this time around, it'll probably be ordered in, not homemade.

i'd be happy to help. i like an opportunity or two to toss good stuff back to the universe. i'd also be willing to make and bring some dessert type stuff. we sure don't need to keep all that here at the house...but i sure like making it. :)

lemme know what else i could do to help. my only disclaimer is that i'm in if i don't have to work that night.

maybe. depends on whether i get work or not. thinking this is likely the busy season for theatre and concerts. and i really like paying bills (well, i like being able to) and i so seriously intend to get a motorcycle this year...work first.

but, if i can, i will. and, always willing to make desserts to be shared. even if i can't make it, i'll bet the desserts can. perhaps ash would be willing to be the delivery guy.

NOW I see why I should come to the Austin thread. lol. Thanks Gemme, I AM badass at my job.

little man, you can look up each venue you might work at. They should have posted somewhere their schedule of events taking place in that venue. Some post as much as a year out.

I don't know so much as this is the busy season for you in Texas. Typically, productions move north in the summer months, as entertainers are wusses and don't like the cold winters up here. This is not the rule, I just see it happen a lot. It's a big reason stagecraft is an ebb and flow business in most places.

I can give you other info that would be helpful, I would like to not pass it along here though. My phone # is in your rep comments. Please feel free.

Have a good show.

Quoting as a reminder for folx what's coming up.

I'm hoping to attend the shinding tonight, Diva, if'n my belly starts behaving better. It's not too happy with me right now. :(

April 10th is a maybe. I work, so it depends on how craptastic my day is.

April 17th is a no go due to work.

April 22nd is a maybe. I only work half a day but Ebon's schedule has been all kinds of funky lately. If he can get off at a decent hour, we'll be there.

[Ebon]

Ashton is doing better from what I last hear from Wil today. He's out of the ICU and moved to a normal room. I think he also said his breathing is better. I'm sure Pup and Oiler will let you know more because they went to see him today. Me and Gemme are going tomorrow.

Thanks for all the laughs. Batman and Nayru and Flynn are all sacked out. I think they are tired.

There has been no Marigold Massacre. She still lives. I think I hear her calling my name. I'm trying to resist. I don't know that I can resist salad though. Mmmm

OH! I also had to SNATCH my salsa out of Pup's hands. She tried to tell me she was just moving it, but i know better. :| She's a low-down, double-dealing, mean salsa stealer.

Anyone who loves salsa and hasn't had blush's is missing out. :) I have some. Nyah!

Hmmm. maybe THAT'S what I'll go eat while I watch the Borgias.

[Puplove]

Yep, we got to visit Ash for a bit today - he's doing well enough that he could be could be a smarty pants.

He may be able to move out of the ICU tomorrow.

The most healing thing is seeing how many people love and care about him. If you want to send a card,thoughts, wishes etc, PM me for the address. I know it would mean a lot to him.

As soon as he's out of ICU, he can have as many visitors as the hospital can hold! Bring cards and poker money.

[Puplove]

I have to agree!!!! Had lots of fun, glad I got to come! Fact or Crap was a blast.... we won't tell her we let her win!!!

i'll be taking ash's laptop up to him today. i'll bet he'll be online soon-ish.

yes, cards letters cash would be good. he loved the collage pic. thank you everyone for sending images along for that. i think he forgets how many folks out here love him and are in his corner. it's a shame it takes something like a hospital stay to remind him (or anyone).

thanks all, for your love, concern and well wishes.

[Arwen]

To everyone who sneaked Nayru a snack (including me)...THANKS.

She got me up at 4 and then at 6 and then again at 8. Something didn't process well. :| YAWN

But we have to do this again. It was a lovely low-key evening. :)

I may be making a run to San Antonio to pick up a Basenji from the shelter there. He was to be euthanized this morning but we got him off that list. He may not be purebred, but he looks like he is. If he is or isn't, I'll foster him until we can find him a home. Pretty little tri-color boy.

Anyone off tomorrow who wants to go with? LOL

Were you awake?????

I might have been. I don't sleep well anymore.

I really, really wish I was. That sounds like a good roadtrip! If you decide to pick another pup up on Thursday, count me in!

In other news, Ash looked good today and was in good spirits. He's got himself a fancy hospital airbed and a bunch of pretty nurses making sure he doesn't do something he shouldn't, like drink Pepsi.

:weightlifter:

[Arwen]

Yeah. No. I'm going to be doing this weird thing called work on Thursday. :)

He was picked up or eval'd today by another rescue group. So he's safe at least. This is good. :)

But I'll keep you on the "rescue run" list when this comes up again. It will. People are AMAZINGLY stupid about animals.:cigar2:

Yeah, he could find an easier way to get out of grill duty and torment women in nurse's outfits.

Its a dirty job but someones gotta do it.

If it hurts like this in the morning (and I'm sure it will) I'll be going to the doctor :( I have noooooo insurance until June 1st. Damnit.

sounds good to me, but of course, depends on what day y'all go

[durrrrrrrr]

reason number 342 why I love Texas

I went and got my truck / plates transferred to Texas

went into the place ( some ppl call it court house , some ppl call it license branch )

the lady says to me: " it's gonna be high this time because of transferring from another state"

me: I kinda figured that

Lady: total is 119

me: :blink:

Lady: I'm sorry

me: um, no, that is cheap, look at how much I paid from that other state

Lady looks at other registration: :|

Lady: plz tell me that was for 5 years?

me: nope, one year. that's right, 528 bucks for one year

so, needless to say, no biggie on how much Texas charges...lol

That's it- I am moving to Texas!! DMV fees can't get any higher in Ca!!!

Don't say that! You know what will happen...

[canmarielan]

Who all is still planning on attending roller derby on sunday? I"m hoping I'll be all better by then.

[Oiler41]

DMV fees in Mississippi are the highest I've paid. Much more than I paid in California; More than in New York. Texas DMV fees are low and that is only one reason it is great here! Reason two, no state income tax; reason three, a reasonable cost of living; reason four, continued growth, specifically in Austin, which is again in the top twenty "cities to live in" in the U.S. this year; reason five, a great community here. It is OUTSTANDING to live here!

I have two tickets but may not be able to make it. I have two home visits for my rescue group on Sunday. One in San Antonio and then one in Wimberly.

So if anyone wants them, let me know. This was the only day I could get these done.

Well, there aren't any REAL femmes in TX, so your guess is as good as...um...anyone's, right??

Ebon will never EVER live that down.

And I love you for outing him all over again so we can beat him up...again...and it's not MY fault!! :)

Makes sense! I am really hoping that the damn housing situation begins to level out soon (just can't sell my place at a loss). I do have to relocate. What really sux is being on such a tight budget (my dividend income took a big nose dive in this recession and has not climbed back up much yet) that I can't really travel and that is what I need to so I can check out regions. Right now, a lot of stuff is going on for me right now. But, things will eventually turn around.

Yanno.... the Austinites are always welcome at my place if they vacation in California. I'm a great tour guide and treat guests just like I was from the South! Must have been that 21 years with a woman from 'Bama!!!

And Hey- look what your sweetheart says about Texas!!

[Ebon]

And I love you for outing him all over again so we can beat him up...again...and it's not MY fault!! :)

*sigh* For I was young and a fool when I said such things. I know not what I did.

It's okay. We are here to make sure you stay edumacated. :)

Please also note that *I* didn't start it.

This time.

I forget. Pup? Where am I on the list of reminding Ebon of his Very Great Discretion?

[Diva]

I love Austin.......here's one reason why.....

Weeeellllllll....he *did* wind up importing one, so maybe he really meant to say that his favorite kind of femmes tend to stay in cooler climates?

Damn, this sucks. I had Sunday off, and would have loved to do this, but my boss's car is in the shop and she can't get a ride up here.

It must be the thin air.

:blink:

Father June will forgive you.

Eventually.

If you make amends to all the TX femmes.
