Totally.

She was cute, but not as cute as the gal who did the sound! OMG. Of course, she was exponentially cuter because she was a SOUND GAL. At one point, after sound-check, she was sitting at the bar reading some sort of sound-engineer magazine. :-D

I like the bartender at the emptybottle that gives me free sodas.

― Jeff. (Jeff), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:15 (twenty years ago)

I don't even remember a girl bartender. I was mostly thinking, "oh, this is such a relatively reasonable price to be paying for this Maker's, how can I not order it?"

My blog is working again. Hooray!

I know that girls have had too much to drink when they are actually totally into me.

― Jordan (Jordan), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:27 (twenty years ago)

is your girlfriend drunk, like, all the time?

― gbx (skowly), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:29 (twenty years ago)

She doesn't count, but as it happens, yes.

i like the ones that give me free booze.

did the show go as well as the soundcheck?

I know I stole it from Eazy, but I really like using the word "gal" now. Guys are always "guys," from when they're teenagers until they're old men -- but it's rough transitioning from "girl" to "woman." "Women" always seem like they should be much older than I am, but at a certain age "girl" can start to sound condescending. So for now, "gal" it is.

― jaymc (jaymc), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:36 (twenty years ago)

The show was fine -- there were a couple of blatant mistakes (band members either coming in too early or too late), but otherwise I thought we played pretty well!

You're tellin' me.

Sorry. Anyway, I like your hair, Amanda! My roots are starting to show but I can't afford to get mine dyed right now, so I'm using that new John Frieda color gloss thing in the hopes that it will make dull brown more auburn. My used didn't used to be dull brown, that's the sad thing.

― jocelyn (Jocelyn), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:40 (twenty years ago)

Do it yourself, at home! I did. I think it looks better than those pictures represent, but maybe I'm wearing rosy glasses.

― The Milkmaid (of human kindness) (The Milkmaid), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:41 (twenty years ago)

PS - Thank you.

― The Milkmaid (of human kindness) (The Milkmaid), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:41 (twenty years ago)

I think men are always boys...hence me hollering from the 3rd floor last night, in order to get help moving heavy things: "HEY DOWNSTAIRS, I NEED A BOY."

― Laurel (Laurel), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:41 (twenty years ago)

Sassy.

― jocelyn (Jocelyn), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:42 (twenty years ago)

What should a sick boy eat for lunch? Salad?

― Jordan (Jordan), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:44 (twenty years ago)

XP: Not really. I think you'd have to see the boyz/men involved to understand just HOW not sassy.

― Laurel (Laurel), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:44 (twenty years ago)

All the same, boys love hearing that kind of thing.

― Steely Df'nM (OutDatWay), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:45 (twenty years ago)

Amanda: love the hair!

ohhhh

― Jordan (Jordan), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:46 (twenty years ago)

Does that encourage manchildish behavior though? Because the manchild is not to be encouraged. He has enough fuel.

― The Milkmaid (of human kindness) (The Milkmaid), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:46 (twenty years ago)

is everyone moving and breaking up at the same time? definitely makes me think spring is just around the corner.

i moved on tuesday and there isn't a part of me that isn't still aching. when i was putting my bedframe and bed back together tuesday night the king sized mattress almost flopped over on top of me. i envisioned being trapped under it and dying there alone in my basement apartment only being found when i didn't show up for work for 3 days straight. when i successfully got the mattress on the box springs i was, for the first time in a while, genuinely pleased with what i'd done. i felt victorious. then i remembered that all i'd done was put a fucking mattress on a box spring. i think i should be aiming higher.

― chicago kevin (chicago kevin), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:46 (twenty years ago)

king sized bed? !!

― The Milkmaid (of human kindness) (The Milkmaid), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:47 (twenty years ago)

also: i don't know how i feel about gal. i want to like it, but i kind of don't.

i'm all arms and legs, i need the room. plus it's fun to have all that room for, well, y'know.

― chicago kevin (chicago kevin), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:48 (twenty years ago)

Sure, but it's getting the sassy ones within earshot that's the problem. Also, yeah, to nix the manchild fodder I might have to move on from "boys'.

Kevin, next you put the boxspring on a bedframe. THEN you celebrate.

― Laurel (Laurel), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:49 (twenty years ago)

But you like "toots", Kelsey?

I *wish* I had a king size. Maddie and I both sprawl too much for a queen.

― Jordan (Jordan), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:50 (twenty years ago)

I'm a big fan of "lady." Especially when adressing my female friends, because it adds a touch of class to conversation.

Alternately, it adds a touch of Jerry Lewis.

― Steely Df'nM (OutDatWay), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:50 (twenty years ago)

I was searching for the Britney image, but John beat me to it. Has anyone else seen Crossroads and enjoyed it?

Dan, but watch out for "ladyfriend" - gals take offense to that sometimes, especially if you've got something going on with them, especially, like, occasionally!

― Eazy (Eazy), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:52 (twenty years ago)

LADY! FROM THE MOMENT I SAAAAAW YOU...

― The Milkmaid (of human kindness) (The Milkmaid), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:52 (twenty years ago)

Love "toots." Although, if someone I didn't know called me toots, I'd be all, "Who does he think he is?"

I had to watch Crossroads for a job I had at that time. The best thing about it was the DVD extra where they show you how to make the t-shirts the girls were wearing. I'm saying girls here on purpose.

― Sweet Tater (kelstarry), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:53 (twenty years ago)

I loved Crossroads!

― The Milkmaid (of human kindness) (The Milkmaid), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:53 (twenty years ago)

(Speaking of which, last night I watched the Sopranos episode from the most recent season where Tony meets his father's mistress, this Kennedy-era bombshell played by Polly Draper - man, was she great.)

xpost- that's a beautiful song, Manda. For my 7th grade chorus-class evening cabaret concert, I sang 'Babe' - maybe I should've tried 'Lady' instead.

― Eazy (Eazy), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:53 (twenty years ago)

I know a couple of dudes who say "ladyfriend" all the time, and it comes off as totally smarmy.

― Jordan (Jordan), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:53 (twenty years ago)

The best triple bill would be:
1. Where the Boys Are
2. Satisfaction
3. Crossroads

― The Milkmaid (of human kindness) (The Milkmaid), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:54 (twenty years ago)

It's all about "the ladies".

― Casuistry (Chris P), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:54 (twenty years ago)

I have a friend who says either 'ladyfriend' or 'womanfriend' because he cannot stand 'girlfriend.'

― Sweet Tater (kelstarry), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:54 (twenty years ago)

I need to see Crossroads. Actually, I wonder if Crossroads and 8 Mile might be a good double feature.

Until I posted it, Britney was the spectre haunting this thread.

I really don't like "lady" for some reason.

― jaymc (jaymc), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:55 (twenty years ago)

I love "girlfriend". I'm going to say it even after I'm married.

― Jordan (Jordan), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:55 (twenty years ago)

i use ladies and fellas.

i also use "girl" and "woman" when talking about a girl or woman and for me it's not an age thing it's a maturity thing. i've dated 32 year old girls and 25 year old women. hopefully there's something going on with this 28 year old i've been seeing around. i'm leaning 60/40 towards her being a girl.

― chicago kevin (chicago kevin), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:57 (twenty years ago)

Not "lady", "the ladies".

― Casuistry (Chris P), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:57 (twenty years ago)

― The Milkmaid (of human kindness) (The Milkmaid), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:58 (twenty years ago)

"The ladies" is one of those words that shouldn't be made singular, like "scissors" or "pants".

Saffire - now those are ladies!
