Grumpy. Attempting to fill myself full of tea (Russian Caravan, a black tea. yummy). I managed to remember my CD binder for work this morning, but somehow forgot the book I was planning on bringing to chemotherapy. ARGH. And their magazines they have out for the patients and suchlike suck.

Last night, the Engineer and I took Carrie to my old hood of Philadelphia. Most specifically, we took her to MY bar. Tattooed Mom's. Thee Pumpkin Girl and The Unibomber V 2.0 were in attendence, as well as a surprise visit from Karl Christian (Angst Boy comics) and Brett (who smiles a lot and is keen).

TPG and I were doing the gifty thing, which involved much squeeing at each other. I got her the winged lion from The Island of Misfit Toys and she gave unto me a pair of tiny black velvet gloves (which fit my wee little paws perfectly), as well as the purple bat and cat box I have been squiggly over since I first clapped eyes upon it back in August.

TPG makes my heart go pitter pitter!

I know so many people who claim Mom's as their bar. It has to be one of the best in Philly. I loved going there but i'll stick to my NJ dive :)

It's quite spiffy there. :)

Though I was verging on belligerent because they took the Nick Cave CD with my drinking song (Brother, my cup is empty) off the juke box. hrmph.

That jukebox has quite the mix of music on it. I like the stuff hung all over the walls. I've been amused enough by the first floor and have never even been upstairs. Since [livejournal.com profile] aprilrobin moved back to NJ we've had no reason to head over there. She used to work at Trixie's and told me all the South Street merchants go to Mom's when they're done, so she hung out there quite a bit.

She used to work at Trixie's?!

When?

I used to work directly across the street, at Tower Books. Three years, spanning 1997-2000.
Holy weirdness. I knew a couple of people who worked there, too.

She worked there right before the summer. I think she was a manager maybe? I can't remember.

We were there shortly after eight and sat downstairs, towards the right (after the bar).
I don't sit upstairs. It's stinky up there and it's mostly dopey elitest people. ;)

And I could have SWORN I saw you, too. But, I thought to myself "That can't be Beth!"
I should have shouted your name! :(

i <3 my new friend!

wondering about his name
king moonracer (so keen!)

is it because he's a lion
and therefore the sun?
is that why he races the moon?

upstairs at mom's scares me.
john and gino make me go up
there when i'm with them.
a whole other world.
totally different jukey.
it's kind of like the bar in
every john hughes movie with
no dancing and less new wave :)

Damn my lazy arseness. Okay... next pay cheque damn it. I will gift you but good. Happyness and much giddyness in this season of sillyness. :-)
