*random tangents, feel free to skip.

so rolling around town in my truck with friends in tow, windows down, country music playing...
wonderful.


...even if after dinner you go to bass pro.
...and spend too much an the most amazing pull-over ever.
...i'm so yuppie in my taste sometimes i don't know what to do with myself.


then again, the lovely older/middle aged sales lady that was nearby folding clothes told me how cute i looked in it. we talked for a bit, she was quite nice indeed! ha, she loved my thick blonde hair and how it was arranged. i showed her how to put her hair like mine, etc.


was a nice post-concert time with friends.




concert today went well, jerkface's mom talked to me for a bit, she's nice and i enjoy talking to her.
She said i did a good job, told me how beautiful i looked on stage and how pretty i looked, we talked music and such.
...have a feeling his girlfriend thought it awkward that she was talking to me, or at least a friend said it was odd the way she seemed to interject and make an attempt to pull his mom's attention back to her and away from me...
glad i wasn't the only one to think that, but hey, everyone acts a bit awkward from time to time.
and in all reality, even if someone else felt awkward, mentions it and reaffirms the voice i'm silencing that doesn't mean i have to go with it.

coming over here this morning I listened to...
talk radio.
a home-improvement show hosted by a plumber that gave advice to callers on anything from PVC pipes in sprinklers to making your laminate counter-tops look like granite.


...and i enjoyed it quite a bit.


perhaps i'm turning into my dad.
or my papa.


talk radio always reminds me of grandma and papa's dentist office...
it's always on and in the small building space you can hear it in the lab, the office, the waiting room, the examination room...


i love being at their office.
not quite as hopping as it once was, then again papa is mostly retired...
but some people still come because they know how great his skills in reconstruction and denture making are.

watched Dreamer this evening while with a friend...
wonderful horse story.


...i miss riding...
a lot.


it's a feeling you can't replace.
i also miss getting to know a horse.
having it be 'my' horse persay.
or at least interacting with it on a regular basis for an extended amount of time...
