One day. Yes, one day.

[thehefner]

So I'm just reading my friendslist, minding my own business and thinking about maybe starting to find a section to memorize from SantaLand Diaries or maybe finishing my revisions for Hefner Monologues so I can send the manuscript off to the literary agent by next Tuesday... when my eyes should scan over thirdbase's journal... and I should spot this:



Y'know, discounting the fact that my brain blew up a little bit right there... it always bloody amazes me this mad, silly little ideas of mine (that I adore and want to see come to life, of course, but still) are actually that memorable and interesting to others. It always does.

Looking at that ticket puts me in mind of what Spinal Tap would do when they were on tour. Their opening act would be The Folksmen. For those who haven't seen A Mighty Wind, the Folksmen are a trio of aging folkies played by the very same members of Spinal Tap. And the story goes that the Folksmen were routinely booed offstage by an audience that didn't know they were the same band!

'Course, I'm not sure Johnny Go would stand to play opening act for some yammering chatterbox going on and on about some daffy broad and how he can't hold his booze.

you changed the date... it was set for 9/10/11.... ;)
VERY glad you changed my horrendous spelling ;)

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I paid less attention to that. Maybe I should have been more optimistic and set it to a sooner date.

Heheh, no prob. The fact that you did it at all makes me grin.

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

And I misspelled "Mechanicals", so we're even!

:)

[thirdbase.livejournal.com]

[spacechild.livejournal.com]

my girlfriend is working 65-70 hours a week doing build for our biggest musical this season, she is going home to visit her mother down south this weekend (so i will see her even less than usual and have even less to do), and i work a retarded schedule and dont ever get to do much of anything. my weekend is during everyone else's workdays, so most people dont want to do anything.

i'm bored.

i'm very happy to just be getting together, having some beers, and talking about shit.

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

So we thinkin' an evening thing as usual? Me picking you up from work around 8:30ish?

[spacechild.livejournal.com]

thats fine, unless you have any other ideas.

hey.. has the next X-factor or Annihilation come out?

if we could find a copy of Hudson Hawk, i'd say we should go hang with Allan, but he may have other things going on, and we still cant find a copy anyway.

we have to find that movie.

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

New X-Factor, yes. Annihilation, no.

This weekend, Alan's involved in HAMET REVENGE. Dunno if he's doing anything in the evening or something.

[spacechild.livejournal.com]

ah.. well we have no Hudson Hawk anyway.

hmmm.. can you pick me up X-factor? the last one was the one where the Xmen appeared and X-factor took a stance on the registration act, right? so the new one picks up from there?

apparently i am all kinds of late.

i already owe you like 5-10 bucks, dont i? i'll need to grab some cash, or buy you a couple drinks to pay you back. dont let me forget!

so yeah, the usual, i suppose.. unless you get any other ideas.

and as always, if there are any books you wanted me to read, bring them. i know there are a bunch we discussed and then promptly forgot about. including a recent addition to that list, which i've forgotten.

you know, i didnt used to be this scattered. i need a vacation.

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

Aye, a brand new issue came out this wednesday. Scans already hit scans_daily (beating me in the process! ARGH!)

Aye, very well, the usual 8:30ish!

[spacechild.livejournal.com]

maybe earlier, as there arent shows just yet. so more like 8:15, hopefully.

by the way.. i put out the word on my lj about cheap Cabaret tix i'll get for people, but you i'll comp in. but you need to get me the date you want to come, and if you are bringing anyone.

i cant comp you for more than 2, but if you want more i can probably find a good discount for you. half off or somethng.

[kali921.livejournal.com]

I'm SO THERE, darling. So there! I'll rescind my boycott of everything south of Santa Barbara to go!

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

Aheh, don't worry 'bout that, I'm sure we'll be on tour!

Icon?

[kali921.livejournal.com]

Also....WHERE did you get that icon?

Re: Icon?

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

This post, by the talented newnumber6! I also took this, and while it's one of my hated Joss Whedonisms, god damn if I won't find a use for it.
