well officer, i ain't gonna lie....

(alot of this is mumbled and jumbled...it's late and i'm tired...so...read with that in mind...)

for years i smuggled stuff across the border. and for years i got away with it. i lied. and lied a lot. and only a couple of times got caught, and even then only got slaps on the wrist. so now, i say exactly what i have and the last two times, and i had some bounty, nothing. nada. no duty. just, "good night, see ya...hit the road.." so what's the point? fine with me....and it helps me out. actually tonight it helped out mishi and garbs as they had some all new glitter vinyl with them as well and some other crap. i had a bottle of booze corie had wanted and they didn't even ask if i had any booze....
this morning we all headed down to seattle to go and buy some vinyl we had been looking for that the garbs had found online-some colors have been hard to come by and he found some in two different locations, so off we went. after which no trip to seattle would be complete without a trip to momma's mexican kitchen. the garbs had the carne asada elvis burrito while mishi and i opted for the nolasco-me chicken, mishi veggie... i like that place.
we also dropped by easy street records, urban outfitters, and all the regular haunts-plus a trip to the trader joe's for some crap we just can't get here. like them peanut butter filled pretzels..man, them things is good...three bags good. they have some great stuff there for cheap...mishi bought a couple new chairs at area 51 which are pretty cool bungee seat chairs...hard to explain-check the photos...on the way outta town i mentioned that i had a hankering for a dick's burger and the garbs loves the burgers so off we went to the dick's over on 45th near libby's place..then afterwards it was over to libby's to see if she was home. sure eniugh she was. we had a nice visit with her and her pooch, looked at some cool samples of fabris she has, showed her the stuf we had bought and then hit the road once again...that girl is so great! i may get her to recover my old red chair...she does very cool recovering upholstry work. she's doen work for peter buck, eddie vedder and lucinda williams...so i'll fit right in with my chair...or not.
ok,...i'm tired...check the photos...check the cool new vinyl colors...
