YAWN
Just woke up
For the 2nd time today
The first was at 8 am
Got home at 4 am
I have no voice left from singing and whoo hoo-ing
Had a fucking BLAST last night
Knees are paying the price today, though
UGH
It was worth it
It was all worth it
3 hours in Thanksgiving Day traffic to get to Angela's
(a trip which should've only taken 1 1/2 hours)
Then 40 minutes from there to the venue
Then 1 1/2 hours home in the wee hours
All worth it
100%
I saw my band
I saw them together again
I may have to turn this into a Turkey Day tradition
Provided, of course, that they actually keep doing this year in and year out
They changed up some of the songs, but it was still fun
And !
The best part ?!?!?!
O.k., well, maybe not the BEST part...but it still was a huge highlight ! ! !
Connecticut has, apparently, passed the "No smoking in bars, restaurants and clubs" law
So, rather then coming home smelling like an ashtray I came home smelling not much different than I did when I left.
Ang & Jen smoke - - - so we went outside a couple of times so they could get their fix
(Aah, I remember those days....and I'm so glad I quit smoking 7 years ago ! ! !)
The only real possibility I had of smelling like smoke was from them smoking in the car, but because the windows were down it wasn't that bad and my hair, which is usually a HUGE smoke magnet (like, if someone's smoking within a 10 mile radius my hair will pick up and hang onto that smell), doesn't smell the least bit like smoke.
ROCK !
So.
Now I'm awake for "real"
Well
Sort of
And I have to consider getting ready because J and I are heading out to CT to go do the turkey thing at my mother's
He keeps trying to make our time there as short as possible by suggesting we leave later and later
I keep saying "no"
Yes, my family is VERY annoying, but this is the first Thanksgiving I've spent with them in 2 years and damned it I want to actually be able to SEE them rather than doing the eat and run thing that J's suggesting we do
I've spent the last 2 years dealing with HIS family
Now it's his turn
So.
We leave at 1 (or around 1) and should get there in about 1 1/2 hours....
Which leaves enough time before dinner to hang out and chat with mom
I'll have to make sure we pack enough wine and beer...
For J and I will surely need it to deal with Wonder Son
I think I'm going to go now
Go, perhaps, soak in a nice warm bath, before my travelling starts again
Happy Turkey Day Y'all !
