Missed day miscellanea

[slipjig3]

I kept meaning to post this weekend, but for reasons of general inertia I never did. If I had in fact posted, I probably would have mentioned the following:

* Got to see fiddle_dragon briefly on her way to her new Massachusetts home from Minnesota, along with her two girls and her mom. Always a nifty thing.

* I should have learned ages ago from hanging out with GMs that one should never utter the phrase, "Things can't get much worse than this." While stopping by Dango's to pick up some carry-out wings, I had the dubious pleasure of listening to some guy with a guitar attempting to cover Sister Hazel's "All for You." I then made the mistake of thinking things oculdn't get much worse, at which point he launched into "Wonderwall," and I watched a beer-sodden frat boy go nose-to-nose with his girlfriend and yowling, "You're my wonderwalllll..." before entering liplock, thus creating a "moment." I grabbed my food and ran for the hills, burning my footprints behind me.

* In contrast, I got to heard a sleep-deprived DJ announce that his station was "serving up a rock 'n' roll breakfast of rock 'n' roll." A car-moshing devil-horns moment if there ever was one. Rawk.

Sleep-deprived magic. Happens sometimes. Remind me sometime to recite to you Larry King's slow-motion rave-out; I kind of adore it. (Includes King saying "I am exhausted from thirty nights...")

One of these days, I need to get a transcript of me talking in sleep-dep-loopy mode. It ought to be interesting.

And remember that Joseph Cotton intentionally did his Citizen Kane drunk scene while almost-fall-down exhausted. I love this behind-the-scenes photo of Cotton sitting in a chair and looking like a sack of potatoes he's so tired, while Orson Welles has his hand reassuringly on Cotton's shoulder.

Anna loves you too much to transcribe that. She'd listen to you, though. ;-)
