thejunipertreeI am going to karaoke tomorrow night after work with my favourite co-workers. I will be singing 'Fairy Tale in New York' by the Pogues, with Amanda doing the drunken Shane McGowan parts.
I am going to drink good bourbon and smoke too many cigarettes. I am going to laugh loudly and tell inappropriate stories. I am going to goad Joanna into singing something wretched, so that I may have ammunition to torment her with at a later date.
This will be the first time I've sung in public, in front of a large group of people, in a mighty long time. This will also be my first time singing karaoke. Knees knocking, but I will do it.
Booze makes you popular and heals all wounds!
That Pogues song is my ultimate Christmas song and pretty much the only one I will tolerate being played or sung in my presence. I have drank great amounts of whiskey, with large and rousing cheers from my ex-roommates and I, to that song. And I have wept quietly, completely alone and in the dark, on Christmas eve to that song.
I may be a fool, but it resonates within my chest.
