allison road, gin blossoms

tonight i did some karaoke, and chose 'Allison road' by the gin blossoms. of course their music reminds me of being in college, as i saw them in concert then. something about this song made me choose it over, say, another one of theirs'- 'hey jealousy'. lines like 'i didn't know, i was lost at the time' and this is one of their songs where one hears them say 'fool'. i saw a friend of the button as well, not long after i arrived. she spoke of wanting to get brussels sprouts, or 'b-sprouts' at a nearby place. i heard her do one song, and left just as she was going to do another one, as it was getting late. as i recall, i heard her do 'hard to say goodbye' by boys to men. she did elaborate on her upcoming move to Colorado.
   earlier in the evening i went to a holiday play, done by whopper. a different take on Christmas stories, no doubt. as it had FBI agents in it, and was about a candy cane, santa, and frosty. his troupe does good plays, also said so to his cohort, the david spade look-alike. i said the only thing better would be to be in the cast, hard to say when that will happen.
    before the evening, there wasn't all that much to do. there was the typical getting a breakfast sandwich, and going to my PO box, but otherwise that was it. might explain why i just slept for a while in the afternoon, after going to the grocery store. two more orders were at the post office, a flyer for a movie based on an emerson hough book, and a postcard of the rathskeller at the hamm's brewery.
