I burned my arm with hot oil last night cooking cheesecake eggrolls (which btw were worth the burn) and now it looks like I have some sort of weird disease. Cute.
Maria and I went to see Lucero in Lexington on Tuesday. I always thought Ben Nichols was kind of sexy, now I think he’s really sexy. It has to do with his whiskey soaked voice, scruffy, dirty, unshowered, “i’ve been wearing these clothes for weeks and just got of bed” look, and how fucking charming he is on stage. Besides the dumb fangirl stuff though, the show was one of the most fun nights I’ve had in a really long time. Lucero puts on an amazing live show, mostly because they seem to be really genuine, down to earth guys who really just love playing as much as we love coming to hear them play. They encourage song requests, hang out at the merch table before the show, and get really fucking drunk on stage. Plus if your up front like we were, gallons of beer and whiskey get poured on you, take that as you will but even after I showered I could still smell it on me.

Wednesday’s Quote from Kyle King
I feel so happy, so inspired, content, peaceful and warm inside. I think I’ll be up painting for awhile.

Ben is awesome. Except that I gain weight when there is someone who likes to buy me pie and fried foods all the time. I had done so well and only eaten coffee (yes, it’s a food) for three days straight. Then we went to the grocery and I stayed in the car. Of course when he came back, he had key lime pie for me. Probably one of the sweetest things ever (who needs flowers when you have pie?) but now I can’t stop. Thank god for Topamax, which I start back on (hopefully) tomorrow. That’s a good way to drop 30 pounds fast.
