Growing up, Liz, Colleen and I attended the Octoberfest annually. We would stay at the Lennon’s hunting camp and go danc. When the D.J. asked if she’d like the same song played at the party OF COURSE she said, “YOU HAVE TO !” so,… here we are doing the internationally reknowned Chicken Dance!
This is the mini-reunion photo of the LCHS women…. with a link to the rest of the slideshow. Posted in Friends & Family, Music | No Comments »

| July 24th, 2006 | Anniversary Party |
The next day, we (both sets of family/both generations of the Clarks, Bobbie, me) headed over to Bethel Woods for a day of the Jazz Festival including: Wynton Marsalis, Dianne Reeves, this amazing but weird Brazillian artist named Cyro Baptista and Beat the Donkey, a little piece of the Preservation Hall Jazz Band, and synchronisity of synchronisity because she’d just mentioned him a day or two before, Bobbie’s favorite jazz musician, Chris Botti. (Missed Thurman Barker.) The new site is beautiful but they aren’t allowing picnicing which, considering the rolling green vistas serving as a backdrop, is just rediculous. I’m going to write a letter pointing out the numerous venues across the country, for example the Hollywood Bowl, which allow such activity with success. It’s just greed and if not checked, people will leave the place bitter. Oooh, speaking of. They also seriously need to relax on the whole “assigned seats” idea. 1/2 the place was empty (there is a LOT of seating) and when people moved up a couple of rows, the ushers were adament about moving even as late as the last 1/2-hour of the last set. Time shall tell. anyway, great weekend! |

Lisa On Fire Lisa dropped “bombs” of wisdom a couple of weeks ago and I promised her then I’d post them. Here in no particular order….. “sex is for lovers, friends / “the best scottish guy i ever had sex with was italian” “rebecca, you’re not a teenager anymore. you’re not even in your 20s anymore. just suck up and get over it!” “i don’t speak to you, i don’t see you, i don’t call you, and i think you stink, why aren’t you obsessed with me?” “just texan and southern yahoos are fuckin nuts” LOL! This song’s for you! |

This is now stuck in my head on permanent loop. Grr….. (As recorded by the Partridge Family/Bell) I was sleeping and right in the middle of a good dream This morning I woke up with this feeling I think I love you so what am I so afraid of I don’t know what I’m up against Hey, I think I love you so what am I so afraid of Believe me you really don’t have to worry I think I love you (c) Copyright 1970 by Screen Gems-Columbia Music, Inc. |

Went to a “Not a Wedding” One Year Anniversary Party for my friends Liz and Andy who eloped,… well you can guess when… which for several of us was simultaneously a mini [x-year] Class Reunion (which in some ways is too bad b/c it overshadowed the event of the evening so it’s a good thing that we were set up in the back of the room/at the bar.)
