Five months. As of yesterday, that’s how long Kelly and I have been together. It feels like much longer than that, in a good way, but it also feels like no time has passed, because there are still so many things that we haven’t done yet, and places we haven’t gone yet. It’s a really good feeling.

We decided to go out and celebrate, so naturally we chose karaoke. And yes, we had a blast. My new favorite song to sing is “I Touch Myself” by the DiVinyls.

One girl was the embodiment of Olivia Newton John. She sang one of the songs from “Grease”, and the theme song from “Xanadu”, and both times, you would have sworn Olivia was there singing. It was uncanny. And speaking of Olivia, when I was a little kid, I used to think that she and Elton John were married. I’m not sure when it was that I found out that she was Australian and Elton was English, not to mention that Elton was–and still is–much too gay to be interested in Olivia.

Tonight is Susie Blue’s birthday, so Kelly and I and a whole bunch of other people are going to the Speakeasy to celebrate. Tomorrow, which is Saint Patrick’s Day, Kelly’s aunt is making sushi, and we’re going to go over and ‘help’. The Plan for later in the evening is to go see the Upright Citizens Brigade perform in one of their rare touring perfomances. Hopefully the show doesn’t sell out, but I have a sneaking suspicion that it will. Then again, maybe everyone will be out at Irish pubs and not give two blarneys about UCB, so we’ll have the place to ourselves. That’s what I like to think is going to happen.

I’ve been having the urge lately to go on another day trip/photo expedition, so I may do that on Sunday. It’s been a few weeks now. Yeah, I know, I did go to Cathedral Park a couple of weeks ago, but I have a hard time calling that an ‘expedition’, since it’s right here in town.

Alyssa comes back from Fiji on Sunday. Can’t wait to find out all about how THAT went.
