playing house

playing house is never as fun as when you like your playmate. karl and i temporarily set up house last friday. after work, i bought dinner and supplies and went home to my catnapper.

after dinner and a quick change, we went to libis to watch emm gryner. menaya opened for her and backed her up too. they're better with each other than separately, though of course emm can stand on her own, and sadly i can't say the same for menaya. it seemed like couple's night that night. karl and i shared a table with april and her husband (songhits family with a club-veteran daughter of 4), peach and robert, and wawi and goo (alternately of course, with the small size of gweillos). after the event, we went with wawi and goo to grab a bite at tapa king, reminiscing the horrendous fete de la musique 2004 (goo playing with radioactive sago project during the untimely collapse of the rock stage), talking about tim burton, marilyn manson, and respective sports. karl the swimmer, goo the gymnast (shhh), and wawi and i, perpertually lampa little girls who can't swim or bike, and instead fence or dance on the side (respectively). they brought us back to our temporary home, probably thinking what an odd couple we are.

we stayed in the whole day saturday before we closed shop (or home) and actually went home.

now that's a holiday.
