(no subject)
last night was me and sean's "date night" that had been building up for a few months. he told me he had decided he wanted to have an official date where he took me out to dinner and stuff. i suspected he had picked early june because he'd just have gotten his paycheck, etc. we went to Puerto Alegre in the mission and we split TWO PITCHERS of margaritas. i had some guacamole and chips, he had chicken enchiladas. we chatted up a storm and towards the end of the second pitcher, all food gone, he asked "so are you having a good time?" and i said "yes i am!" to which he replied "good, because the night's not over yet!" i didn't give much thought to it and then he mentioned that we'd be going to a show. he dropped some vague clues and i couldn't pick up on anything. turns out the show was to be at bottom of the hill. i couldn't tell shit from the crowd, aside from "wow, these people are young," which made me a bit weary. sean laughed and agreed. he also told me it was a sold-out show. bottom of the hill doesn't have any signage displaying the act of that evening, so that worked in his favor... and he made me promise that if there was a merch table, i wouldn't go 'til after the show. the opening act was a comedienne...

... and she ruined it by getting onstage and thanking "jens" for the opportunity. my drunken eyes widened and i turned and look at sean and said "jens lekman?!?!" and he smiled. i hugged and kissed the shit out of him. what an adorable and thoughtful surprise! made sense. one of his clues was "i'd never heard of this person before you told me about them and the music was so nice i decided i'd like to take you to the show".
for the record, i became a part of tig notaro's act:
me: gnomey lil' lesbian
1:15 PM i shouldve been like WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR FUCKING NOSE
Sean: hahahaha
me: i don't remember what the hell all that was about but i remember her telling me i talk a lot and i thought that was funny cuz...
i do.
hahahaha
Sean: man, you were calling her punchlines before she could get 'em out.
me: HAHAHHAAHHAHAHAHA
1:16 PM Sean: rude. hahahaha
me: i just laughed out loud. and the sound of my laughter in the quiet apartment startled me.
i just scared myself.
asshole.
hahahaha
Sean: she was cool though. pretty funny. and you were both feeding off each other. made for good comedy.
me: it's not rude. i was calling out her predictability.
HAHA
(rude)
1:17 PM Sean: then, you walked off right as she was rapping it up and she started in on me. hahahaha
i was like "she has to pee!"
1:18 PM me: oh yeah?
what did she say to you? i remember i heard something from the bathroom
what a hot mess.
Sean: she took your drink away, remember?
me: yeah i was pissed about that
i started falling asleep
if i start drinking and then stop
i go to sleep pretty much instantly
1:20 PM Sean: well, when you walked off she asked me something about how drunk you were and i said, "nope, she hasn't had enough" and she was like "jesus, man, you like 'em comatose" hahaha
she gave me your drink back at the end. you were so pissed you wouldn't drink it.
me: HAHAHHAHAHAHA
seems like i was funnier than this bitch
...hahahahhaha so that was that. i'm a comedienne, everyone.
anyway... jens was marvelous. what a gorgeous voice. i really enjoyed it. i remember all of it because i was so enthralled. he played mostly off of "night falls over kortadela" which i looove. so it was great. he did "sipping on the sweet nectar" which is muh jaaam. he did "postcard to nina" too, which i love. it was GREAT.

i woke up with a meeeeeeeean hangover. i was just telling sean, i'm STILL zombified.
Sean: nope. its not a job for you. if anything, all i would ask of you is that you pick up all the loose papers n' shit in the living room and orgamazize. but it can wait.
you need a file cabinet.
me: yeah the living room is looking pretty lived in
hahaha
Sean: tee hee
me: no, i need to learn how to part with shit that is absolutely useless.
hhahahaha
i'll clean up in a bit
i'm still a zombie.
Sean: yeah, i secretly threw out some of your precious starbucks receipts the other day.
me: HAHAHAHAHA
the mention of pork sandwiches has gotten sean even more pumped about visiting miami. heehee.
can't wait! tomorrow: lunch with lisa, a much needed visit to suchada for another delicious thai massage, and packing. flight leaves tomorrow night! :D
