You shook me all night long and then took off before dawn, bastard
You know, no one stays put anymore. It's always off to college here, new job over there, running from the authorities in that state, etc. After only seven hard core months of pure rock, Reverend Pete hosted his last Rock Star Karaoke last night before he moves to NYC (actually, he moved last weekend, but that's how dedicated he is). However, every carefree young rabblerouser has to grow up and go get their Ph.D. in Ethnomusicology some day. (We're not kidding.)
Closing out his tenure with the live band (this time called Sammy Sandwich and the Lunchbox Throwdown or something), Pete opened with everyone's favorite AC/DC number (is that an oxymoron?), at the end of which Girl-E threw a bouquet of flowers at his feet like so much classical recital. There were a number of other showstoppers, including white rapper chick Trina with "Poison" (never trust a big butt and a smile) and a software engineer who did a surprisingly decent Zack de la Rocha (well, he did go to Harvard afterall). Girl-E did a passable version of "Hard to Handle," after a frightening mix-up in which the band started mistakingly playing "I'm Just A Girl". She may look No Doubt on the outside, but please. Anyway, Pete will be sorely missed. The girls taking his place seem pretty cool, but it would be hard to match his extraordinary leadership skills (who else could get 14 people who claim to be adults to go on a three-day karaoke field trip?).
In other news, Girl-E is trying to find creative ways to supplement the $34 in her bank account, so starting today she's participating in a market research study on some facial product. She has to pick it up tonight and use it for 14 days, after which she will share her verdict with a focus group and take home a fat $125 check. So pretty easy money, unless of course the stuff gives her boils. So between that and the eBay auction ads, she should be able to buy as many as two breakfast sandwiches a week, and maybe a lipstick.
In other news (that's getting old, but we're transition-deficient these days), Girl-E's email is down, so if you've sent her an urgent message or low interest rate offer, rest assured she will respond as soon as humanly possible.

What about a big butt and a look of quiet content? Can that be trusted?

I was excited about the boils until I realized that I'll actually see you within those 14 days. Then I got _really_ excited about the boils.

For the record, I did some research over the weekend and discovered that medium-sized butts with scowls were surprisingly the most trustworthy ass/facial expression combination. At least when it comes to not drinking my tomato juice when I was looking at the map.
