serafaeryOrders done! Having some snackies.
I do want to brag a little bit that my efforts to cheer up Josh with our weekly terrible karaoke night together in the livingroom has been working splendidly. I find music that he loves or finds amusing, neither of us can sing for shit bit we enjoy it so much anyway. I think there is something healing about singing, no matter how poorly it is done.
He was complaining during our coffee shop/errands run yesterday that tomorrow as going to be a stock market free fall, and I started singing Free Fallin' and found out that, unbeknownst to me, Josh is a huge Tom Petty fan. So I played a bunch in the car and he got sooooooo happy. He picked out some songs for himself for karaoke last night while I paid sparkle studio rent and we went to the kitchen store to select the new crockpot and browse their utility knives.
Anyway. I dressed up in my brightest red skimpy hooded pixie dress that he loves with my hot pink butterfly sunglasses and he was all surprised that I dressed up for the party. We sang and sang. I sang two songs by the Cramps (can you really call Human Fly karaoke singing? Who cares! lol) and he actually sounds like Tom Petty when he sings Tom Petty! He loves "Won't Back Down" and "Learning to Fly," it's so sweet. I had to sing Float On by Modest Mouse because that is the quintessential Hard Times song of my generation. I also tried to sing Belinda Carlisle which was a mistake, I could not hit those notes, but who cares! We had so much fun and it's so priceless to see Josh smiling and laughing. He is still today talking about how much fun that was and planning other songs to sing next time.
They say in heaven love comes first. We'll make heaven a place on earth. Oooooh heaven is a place on earth.
If we're going to go down in flames, might as well have fun with it.
