I went to karaoke by myself last night which was Friday, Got three songs in all before 10pm! And now mind you, karaoke started at 8pm and I wasn’t the only there so it was a pretty fast rotation. I sang “House of the Rising Sun” first. Made sure I didn’t have to tip more to sing a more common song because fuck paying more to sing something like “Tennessee Whiskey” or “Sweet Caroline”.

Next was “It’s oh so quiet” and during the quiet parts I yelled for the bar to shut the fuck up and I got a lot of laughs and applause. It’s already nerve wracking enough to sing even a little bit tipsy but with a whole bar chatting away while I am on stage and I am drowned out by chatter is annoying. It’s a bar that does karaoke but it’s definitely not why people go there. Well, some people there enjoy the karaoke but some don’t and those are the real assholes.

My third song was my favorite oldie but goodie “Feeling good” by Michael Buble. But after yelling the yelling parts of “it’s oh so quiet”, my voice was shot and I was three tequila sunrises in so I don’t think that helped my voice either…. but all in all, a good time was had.

It wasn’t until after I left because my voice was shot that people started texting me back saying they couldn’t come out and im like dude, I’ve been done with karaoke for thirty minutes now; I already got Taco Bell and went home! So that was not helpful.

I will tell you I was stoked to be home and in bed smoking weed by 11:15pm last night and I was able to watch tv for a while and be up by 8:30am this morning. Overall, I feel pretty good mentally. I have had five days in a row of generally speaking stable moods throughout each day. Which honestly might be a world record for me.

So to enjoy this good mood that I am temporarily in, I think I might try to deep clean my room and bathroom today. We’ll see how much I actually get done… it’s a pretty lofty goal but it should be fine.

much love,

Dani
