Meeting Famous People


Last night Brian and I went to Woodstock and saw a show. There is a local radio station, an independant station in Woodstock. They play very cool music. We found out about 2 weeks ago that the coolest of the coolest people was going to be preforming there. Henry Rollins. The man is a singer, in bands such as Black Flag and Rollins Band. He's an actor, author and spoken word artist. He is funny as hell and so hot!
So, of course, we had my mother and father babysit. We got tickets.
Henry can talk for hours. And hours. But last night he did about an hour set. He was entertaining and funny and wonderful.
Bearsville Theater is the coolest place. It's in this complex where the radio station is and Utopia Sound Studio. Side bar, Utopia is where they recorded Meatloaf's Bat Out of Hell, as well as REM, Patti Smith, Phish and too many others to list.
The theater person states that there is going to be a meet and greet after the show. I talked Brian into staying. I LOVE Henry and I want to meet him.
Okay, I knew, having kinda met him before, that he was no where near as big as he appears in movies and so on. But until I was standing next to him, I had no idea how small he really is.
But he's still so hot!!! Sorry Brian, but he is!
Isn't it cool to meet famous people?

Mother's Day

Okay, so Sunday is Mother's Day. I was hoping for something vaguely like a commercial. You know, sleeping in, Dad and little one bringing me soggy cereal and stuff in bed. Then a big mess to clean up. As it is, we are going to have brunch with my in laws that morning and that's all the plan.
Brian asked me what I want for mother's day. I don't know. It's been a hard choice. I don't want or need any jewlery. I don't want flowers. I hate to garden and hate flowers. They are too much work.
Brian's father always had a great joke, he would say that he had been called a mother too. A mother ----er. :)

Hair Cuts


Friday, I went to get my hair cut. The first time in a while. It really needed it. It was time for something different. Some of my friends at work and I sat for a while on the computer and we went around and around as we looked at pictures. I finally picked one. So I took the plung.
It came out great. Upsides, nothing to do to it. Downsides, I have to think about color again. When my mother saw it she asked why I dyed it dark again. I didn't. It's almost 90% natural color! For the first time in years! That won't last long.
