Thursday, October 8 through Tuesday, October 13
I’ve been dealing with a really pissy mood for the past week, and there were a few days there that NOTHING made me happy. Basically I was being too much of a mood-swinging little bitch to keep track of my happy things.
1. The obsession with My Body’s A Zombie For You by Dead Man’s Bones continued.
2. Perfecting my apple pie recipe.
3. Hanging out, drinking beer, eating vanilla Oreos and laughing at E’s experience with a super-crazy friend of hers.
4. Finally framing that jigsaw puzzle I finished a while back.
5. Making plans with my aunt for my cousin’s upcoming Twilight-themed 13th (WTF?) birthday party.
And then the big one…
My friend Ben (of the infamous voicemail) called me this morning to offer up a ticket to see…wait for it….wait for it… LEONARD COHEN in Nashville on November 5. I never thought I’d get to see him ‘cause the tickets for this tour were kind of pricey, and then here comes Ben just giving me one. That definitely brought me out of my mini-funk. I’m going to see Leonard Cohen!

1. Getting some important errands done.
2. Time with my grandfather.
3. It was cool enough outside at night that I was able to wear a hoodie. Oh yeah…
Thursday, October 8
1. A much-longer-than-necessary discussion with J about how we either need to go into the glass-blowing business or find a way to make mega bucks from all the useless music trivia we have stored in our heads.
2. Funny stories about what my little cousins have been up to lately.
3. This video for the song “My Body’s A Zombie For You” by Dead Man’s Bones (which has also been making me happy for days).
