*Glee!*
OK, so I'm not as compltetely giddy as my subject line would attest. But I was feeling way too damned pretty to be sitting inside, cooped up all alone with Marley all night on Valentine's day.
So I went out for drinks with my stepbrother Joey. :)
We went and lamented our newly single status...es, and just kinda shot the shit over a few beers and a plate of fantastic garlic bread and dipping sauces. We talked about my plans, or lack therof, for my future... and although I'm no clearer--in fact, maybe even LESS clear about it all--it was nice to have someone new and completely impartial to bounce my thoughts off of.
It also looked like I had a hot date. And since I'm not angling for a guy right now, it was an ego boost. heh.
We walked home past a place where he knows the guys who run an acoustic-open-mic/karaoke/sing along kinda thing, so we stopped in to have another drink and sing a few songs before they closed at 1.
I did "Landslide" (which is nice, because they can move up the key so I can actually sing Stevie!) and "Me & Bobby McGee" (which sounded better for me with live musicians than with karaoke). :)
I love that Joey sounds like Steve from the Barenaked Ladies when he sings. heh.
At any rate, it was nice to get dressed, put on some makeup, and do something with myself. Day ended well. And it's not Valentine's Day anymore (not til' Saturday's Rocky, anyway... *sigh*).
OK, so... to bed. The last resort of the overly thoughtful to escape to.
