Mother's Day Morning Musings!

Happy Sunday, Happy Mother’s Day!

I remembered to call Mommy Z, but got the answering machine, I’ll call her later. Other best wishes go out to Mrs. E-ve’s mom, my grand-mothers, friends with babies, mother of my niece and nephew, and all the other mothers in the world.

Last night Romeo and I went to karaoke at the Gladstone Hotel Melody Bar. It was a good time and each of us got to sing twice between about 10:30 and 12:30. The crowd was good, Peter (the dude that runs to show) was a good guy and a good host and there was Molson Stock Ale in the fridge. The only real downside that we found was the lack of songs in the library. We are spoiled however by a wonderful karaoke situation in Ottawa, so maybe we shouldn’t complain.

Side note: Yesterday I mentioned that Paradise By The Dashboard Lights should be banned from karaoke everywhere, last night my point was vindicated. It’s not that the voices weren’t good. Because in all comparison they were, and it’s not that they weren’t having a good time, because it looked like they were. But it’s still an 8 and a half minute long song. There are about a billion other duets to sing, and even in that library there were other Meatloaf songs to sing if that was the draw… sigh.

Speaking of Molson Stock Ale, is there a better Ale that you can never find in a bar, that only comes in cases of 24 at the beer store (if they have it) anywhere in the world?

Got up this morning but missed the cartoons I wanted to watch, so instead I watched the Family Channel. I can’t say that I’m bragging, or even proud, but it’s what I did.

Last night I was thankful for people who are awesome with their Twitter and Facebook updates. I was tipped off to the fact that Justin Timberlake was hosting SNL as I had forgotten to check because I knew that Romeo and I were going to be out somewhere. I flipped to the Global time shifting and was able to catch most of the show before calling it a night. There were some pretty good moments and you can tell that the guy really just loves being on the show.

Side note: Awesome to see guest appearances from Susan Sarandon and Jessica Biel.

It was very nice yesterday to get a Blue Jays win and a Red Sox loss.

Lots of love to E-ve, time to wrap it up.
