You know how I was all “woo hoo, my guests are going home, and I will be all excited about getting my house back and settling back into my normal routine”?
What I meant was “woo hoo, my guests are going home, and I will be all excited about getting my house back and settling back into my normal routine… just as soon as I deal with this fantastic bit of bullshit:”
Oh yes. That’s right. Approximately 72 hours before my life was going to Return To Normal, I slammed my beloved Mustang into the back of a not so quickly moving vehicle on the Interstate. The front half of my car hasn’t been seen since.
How, dear reader, does one handle the overwhelming fuckthisshitedness that accompanies your first accident in 13 years?
With lots and lots and lots of these:
Of course.
Unfortunately, too many of those will inevitably lead to making an ass of one’s self. And having it captured on video.

First, that sucks about the whole mustang boo-boo.
But the Karaoke rocks. It’s not about how good you can sing girl, it’s about doing it with conviction and attitude. That you have in spades.

You are the queen. My sisters, of which there are three, plus various other female family members, sang an original little ditty called “We are Family”. Cocktails were involved. Thank God video wasn’t.

Sorry about your car, but you’ve got guts to get on that stage, and with a live band! You did a great job. I could never do it. The most you’ll gt out of me is Sing Star with the stereo turned up and my microphone turned down.
Leaving tomorrow for Girls’ Weekend! Which will include LOTS of alcohol. Have a good one. Peek in on you next week.

Sorry about the car, but on the bright side: you rocked the karaoke (I’m too chickenshit to ever get up there and do it!)
My drink of choice would have been a vodka martini, extra dry with 3 olives. Didn’t quite peg you as a “sweet drink”-type!

Sorry about the stang. Looks kinda bad-ass that way though. Like you could go speeding through town and people would get out of your way cause they’ll think you don’t give a damn.

Oh man!
That sad picture of your car made me tear up a little! (sniff) I have a special love and admiration for the Mustang – part of my email address is “shelby” for the Shelby Mustang – such a SEXY sounding engine. You have good taste in cars. It’ll be good as new soon, I hope.
If it were me, I would have jumped headfirst into the largest cocktail I could get my hands on. :martini:
And, there’s not a damn thing wrong with your coping skills!!

Oh Miss Britt! I feel your pain. I recently had an accident…hit and run…so nice of the drunk hispanic man to slam into me, laugh and then take off again in his piece of shit Honda Civic!! I was less than 5 miles from home too. :crazywife:
The whole thing is a pain…the dropping off of the car, the use of the rental, the waiting, the call that your car is finally ready only to find a half dozen things that weren’t fixed correctly! Thankfully you weren’t hurt.

Ok I’m sorry, but you did not sound good on the karaoke!!! BUT I applaud you for having the guts to do it! Karaoke is not about sounding good – it’s about having fun and entertaining the crowd, which you did! :heartbeat:
