T to the G to the I to the F! FRIDAY!
Ok this is gonna be one last dose a lovin for my "friends in low places" before I "slip on down to the oasis" ;) Ya heard??

Bullet point format, but I luv ya no less.

-HAPPY BIRTHDAY LISA! I know you're not feeling all Mary f*cking Sunshine or anything, but regardless, I hope you have a happy day and please call me if you want to just goe down da 4100 Club and have a Budweiser out da cooler, ok hon? ;) We can watch da O's play da A's on da new boob tube dey got down der, Butchie and Shirl will be der, so should we. Actually, come over! Nikki is pretty good at thinking up worse things that could be wrong with you in order to cheer you up, yet I really feel that lately she's been overusing "Hey, at least you're not lactose intolerant now! I love cheese and now it rips my guts out." SO...you're lactose tolerant and a very caring, sarcastic ;) whipper-snapper with an infectious laugh. So Happy Birthday to yeww-hooo-hewwww hon! Get yer ass outta Brooklyn Park and come on down ta Odington sometime!

-I hate the Frankle Automotive commercial where the father calls the Frankle a "car" instead of a "Frankle" and that little pissant son of his Rupert rats him out to the mom and the dad cries like a bitch. Hate it.

-I DO love the Quiznos baby commercial ("As sooon as I get my molars, MMM!") and the Geico Cavemen commercials ("Not cool!") tee hee...good stuff.

-R.E.M. sucks. Especially, Shiny Happy People. Who are these people? I hate them.

-Tom's coming to Baltimore later this weekend for a short stint. Woo hoo! Earlier today I was asking him what he wanted to do while he was down besides help us stain our deck (HA! that's your warming Tom!) and he said, "I dunno, what's there to do?" I suggested Kristin's party (which it will likely be...God willing I wont run into "Dude...high five!"), local pubs, DC, road trip, party at our house and in true Tommy Boy Spirit, I suggested, "...um, throw stuff off the bridge, anything really!" This is a line from that movie in case you dont know, where Rob Lowe asks Chris Farley what the hell there is to do in Sandusky, Ohio and he suggests all kind of dumb crap teenagers would do like it was so exciting. "Throw stuff of the bridge" was one of them. By the way-- side note, while I was in Toronto, Sean took me to The Distillery which is a section of the city full of bars and it's where they taped all the scenes at Callahan Auto in that movie, mainly the loading/shipping dock scenes, "J.D, I lost my virginity to your daughter for God's sake! Charlie..you were there!" :) Anyway, Tom's gonna pick up in the comments section (maybe?) the funny story he told me about one time when he threw stuff off the bridge. You'll likey. I certainly laughed! So we're looking forward to that visit for sure.

-I've tried like hell to get my siblings rounded up for Sunday and this is my last effort. It's pathetic...I'm posting it on my blog! I know you two read it so you cant say you never got the damn details. Sunday, 1pm, Federal Hill. You can ride with me. Here are the details of what Dad has requested we do on his special day (and umm...that would be FATHERS DAY):
Federal Hill Jazz & Blues Festival
DATE: Sunday, June 19, 2005 COST: Admission is $3. Children under 12 are free. DESCRIPTION: Federal Hill Main Street’s 5th Annual Jazz & Blues Festival is bigger than ever, featuring at least 15 jazz and blues bands, and a live performance by acclaimed childrens rock duo Milkshake, offering an exciting alternative to the traditional Father’s Day Celebration. Festival-goers can enjoy the cool sounds of Baltimore's best live jazz and blues as they browse booths filled with art, antiques, jewelry and crafts, and enjoy delicious food and libations from Federal Hill’s celebrated restaurants. EVENT TYPE: Festival LOCATION: Historic Federal Hill, South Charles Street (between West and Hamburg) and the unit block of East Cross Street (between Charles and Light).


Were' meeting at CrossStreet Market at 1PM. CALL ME DAMMIT! He will be 5 Mimosas to the wind when we meet him, maybe we can get a head start at our house Sunday morning. We have a big ass bottle of champagne taking up and acre in our fridge. Maybe Nikki would like to share it with the Lee's. :)

-Corey Hart's "Sunglasses At Night" was on earlier and I called my coworker so I could do the highhat for him over the phone (we call each other all day with music trivia as long as we're listening the same station--oh and on speaking terms! haha) . He challenged me to SPELL that sound I was making, so here it goes:

umm-ssstt, umm-sst, umm-sst (repeat) ;)

He also was genuinely surprised to come into my office today on multiple occasions to me singing, dancing and at one point not working but "banging on dee drum all day"! He noted twice, "My God, I haven't seen you like this in so long. I havent seen you this happy and up in months and months." It hit me...he's clucking right! How sad :(. Oh well...I'm happy now.

Ok, that's it...have a GREAT weekend and try to stay cool (in more ways than one) and listen to The Jack!!! I know it will make you happy, it has made me SO happy! I know I sweat it so flippin hard, but its good ok? :) And thanks for all the comments too!

Love you desperately,
Licky

Glad to see you're in such a good mood.

But you don't like R.E.M.????!!!!!

What's up with that? I admit Shiny Happy People is pretty lame, but what about Losing My Religion, It's the End of the world and I feel fine, or....I could go on and on. I can't believe it! I thought you had such good musical tastes too. :(

Blogger Nikki W*j*hn said...

good songs. :)

We need to break open the champagne soon!

REM annoys me, but I like Shiny Happy People. Losing My Religion is the most over rated crappy song to ever hit #1. I would rather listen to Right Said Fred's "I'm Too Sexy."

Thanks for the birthday wishes.

John...forgive me. I am washed in sin. And Yes..iI dont like REM. When I hear "Everybody Hurts" I want to set myself on fire b/c it feels better than listening to that song.

Oh well-- we agree to disagree here, but on all the rest, my music taste still rules supreme, mwwhahahahaha! ;)
