May. 30th, 2005 02:55 pmI had intended to get up early-ish in the morning, go get another bag of topsoil for the garden, weedwhack the grass in the back yard, maybe dig out summer clothes from storage and put things in bags for Goodwill, and otherwise do productive things. Instead I slept for a bit more than 12 hours after passing out in exhaustion for no apparent reason around 1:15 last night. I guess the lack of really horrendous allergy symptoms yet this year is catching up with me all at once; we did have the windows open all day yesterday, which may be related.

The Burlesque-a-pades on Friday night with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
nminusone and M. and H. Dirty Martini was fabulous; I'm not quite putting "learn to twirl tassels in opposite directions at the same time" at the top of my "things to do" list, but it may earn a spot somewhere in the low middle. The Pontani Sisters' Blaze Starr tribute was entertaining, although I wouldn't have felt too deprived if I'd missed the "Rocky" montage. Corn Mo was vastly entertaining in a completely surreal kind of way. His rocked-up version of Hava Nagila ("Hava Nagila Monster") had me in tears, and not just because the volume was way too high.
Used CD shopping, in which I picked up such jewels as Wendy & Lisa's "Eroica". (Remember them? The women from Prince's backing band?) At $3.49, I thought it was worth a shot. Unsurprisingly, parts of it sound like early Prince; imagine that. It was worth $3.50, but I think I'd have given it a pass if it cost any more, and I might suggest the same to you. And, um, I picked up three more books along with the music at McKay's (The Crimson Petal and the White, Atonement, and The Grass Crown). I swear I can stop buying books even when I don't intend to, really! I'm not an addict.
