On shrimp, being a landlord, and homemade play-doh

Well, never mind the homemade play-doh reference...it was a gross discussion Kyle and I had that began by talking about Abby's picking up...um...'doggie leftovers' in the backyard last night...ewww...'nuff said.

Went to the Guad tonight. It's nice being able to go someplace where they know your name, what you want to order, and what you want to drink before you even take your seat. It's also nice getting shrimp nachos, which are not on the menu. Fun fun.

Tonight the crowd was small, since we hadn't heard from a few of the guys, Stacey had to work late, and Eli has a new job which may end her 'guadding' days indefinitely. Oh, well. It was still fun just hanging with Kyle, J-mo, and Kailyn. Stacey did make it to the mall after we got done eating, so we roamed a few stores. Messed around with the fitness equipment at Sears. Too funny watching us skinny and/or out-of-shape people messing with the bowflex clone.

Afterwards, I headed with J-mo and Kyle to the local studio to hear Bishop Black work on their new recordings. it was cool...we timed it just right (luckily) to be there to hear a song recorded and played back.

Afterwards, I headed home.

In other news, it's getting closer and closer to the time of getting our house on the market. Unfortunately, the tenants-also-friends of ours are trying to tack on a couple of days to their lease so they won't be panicked in moving. Must find the balance between accommodating where I can and where I need to be firm, knowing that -yes- this move is hard on them, but the resulting financial backlash of not being able to sell this house in a timely manner could be much harder on us. -sigh- Still, God was in the process of our moving here. I pray he'll be in the process of working all this out, too.

Heh...overheard a funny conversation with Tania and Stacey about lingerie (don't ask), and Tania was talking about how her grandmother gave her a really old-fashioned robe at her lingerie shower before she got married years ago. Said it was anything but 'sexy.' In fact, she and Stacey referred to such 'lingerie' as the "Honey, I just want to cuddle tonight" lingerie. Hehe...funny, if you're married, that is ;-).

KEY PHRASES: "Wow...J-mo looks pretty scary when he grits his teeth like that." "Kyle, you've been working out for how many years?" "Kailyn, can you say 'Carlos?'" Bishop black singer: "I've got a buzz." J-mo: "Whatever it takes to get your groove on." Me (quietly): "Imagine that being how we - the Crosspoint band - got our own groove on." Errr...maybe not.
