Last night I enjoyed some live music at ETG by:

I discovered a venue (Electric Tea Garden) that I'd long been curious about, along with some good music and delicious oolong. My friends and I bar-hopped a bit to keep our 'spirits' up and then returned to ETG for more music. I think fun was had by all. Then, I was tired and left for home.

The drive home was uneventful. Once home, things were slightly less so. I'd planned to quietly enter the house (after all it was after 1am and I was in West Seattle) via the back door after following the walk by the side of the house. Well, when I opened the gate, a racket was cause by the recycle bin which had been left in an odd position. The lid of the bin caught the gate as I pushed it open and rolled a little bit and hit the fence. This caused the barky dog upstairs to do what he does best. Can you guess?

Then I strolled, or perhaps sauntered, (sulked?) to the back door with no more excitement. But I was a little ticked that somebody had left the recycle bin blocking the gate. Then I was ticked to find out that the lights were on downstairs. And nobody was using them. So, fine, I turned off the lights. Then I got to the bathroom, which was handy. Also handy was the fact that the toilet was already flushing. Nobody was using it either! I guess it woulda run all night if I hadn't gotten home to jiggle the handle. So fine, I jiggled the handle. Well, after I, well, you know.

Finally I made it to my bedroom. As I was stowing my keys, wallet, etc. I was dismayed to see that I'd spent more than I thought over the course of the evening. I thought I still had a $20 left but it wasn't in my wallet. After pulling the miscellaneous bills out of my pockets, I still didn't have the $20. So I put what I had back in my wallet.

By that time I was irked and wired from the last 50 feet home and couldn't fall right to sleep so I checked my e-mail, browsed the web for the latest and greatest, and finally was able to wind down. Slept in way too long this morning. I guess I'll go get my movie at the libary tomorrow instead of today. Maybe I'll be better rested and in a better mood tomorrow, too. Okay, thanks for listening.

PS - I found the $20 in the pockets I had previously checked. Somehow it was hiding in there. Woo!
