Updated kahlurs.
Up to 2393 words; it averages out to just under 300 words a day--which, given that I totally skipped Election Day, crazy-ass Wednesday and Thursday and went and did karaoke last night...I'm okay with. More to come tomorrow.
Last night rinnaldo and I went to karaoke in Mancos for Johnny Walker's last day. He was the seasonal field archaeologist this year and is going to be renting us his house soon. It was TOTALLY HILARIOUS AND AWESOME--the guys (Johnny & Ben mostly) sang a good bit, and we both sang (er, first time ever doing karaoke--I should tell you guys about my parents and karaoke sometime though). Ronnie did "Me & Julio Down By the School Yard" and "Boy Named Sue" and I sang "Wonderwall" and "All For You" by Sister Hazel. It was less intimidating than I'd feared...partly because there were only three of my coworkers & friends there for most of it :)
Oh, and Dylan sang. Twice by his own choosing, the very last song of the night...not so much.
When we first started looking through the big damn songbook, I spotted "I Touch Myself" by the Divinyls in there, and was like "I DARE YOU GUYS TO SING THIS" at Ben and Johnny, the latter of which wrote it down on a slip as a "maybe". Near the end of the night, when we were planning to leave, I told Johnny that we'd stay if he sang that--and he said he wouldn't do it, but he bet that if we put Dylan's name on the slip, Dylan would.
So...last song of the night, the DJ called for Dylan, who was pretty drunk (and probably high) and thought someone had put one of his songs in. The DJ couldn't find the song initially, and Dylan said, "What song?" The DJ told him, and Dylan went "WHAT?"
But he SANG IT ANYWAY! WHICH WAS AWESOME! AND I HAVE IT ON VIDEO (with me kind of yelling along) AND IT WAS TOTALLY THE MOST HILARIOUS THING I'VE SEEN IN A GOOD LONG WHILE.
Yeah. Pretty good night. :)
Oh, and I'm still totally addicted to those dragons I posted a while back; I just have new comms to post them in so you guys don't have to see them all the time. But if you want to... ;)
