very cool woman has blog hereabouts

Just found out that one of my favorite Ann Arborites has a livejournal; if you're curious, join me in friending the marvelous lovelikeyeast.

(Pal E. is apparently also technically here, but has barely appeared so far, as homovegetarian.)

Friended!

Aw... I know, it's funny to have our separate little lj lives and not even know it. Much to catch up on. Hi, y'all. Nice to meet you and/or lovely to see you again!

Know what you mean. I hope to catch up on your real life a bit, too, if circumstances permit. I mean, Judas Yeast! I don't see enough of you.

(Yeah, it makes a good interjection.)

Hey, the cover of the calendar looks GREAT, btw. I can't wait.

I know--ditto, fflo.

In fact, and speaking of which--would you be interested in joining me and the Crackeoke Gang (as I refer to them--the folks of the surprise kareoke party you missed out on...)--for BINGO thursday?

It's at the (for real) Bingo Hall on washtenaw by golfside. We went once before, and it is rather fierce. Those oldtimers are fast, man. We're meeting between 6-6:15 (they start promptly at 6:30, and you have a dizzying variety of bingo game cards to select from).

I have hopefully convinced the anti-bingo Debbie to come wearing fancy Blingo...

Come join us! Join us... bingo fun. One of us. One of us.

a'right!

I can't begin to tell you how psyched I am at this idea! I love you wimmin, first of all, and t'boot I (somewhat closet-ly) LIKE Bingo. Used to play a little at the Hebron Volunteer Firemen's Carnival in tiny Hebron, Maryland, where the fried oyster sandwiches on white bread with ketchup were absolutely delish, and it didn't seem like a rip-off to put a dollar down on a spin of the big wheel, even though you, like, NEVER won. The Bingo players were pretty serious. Seen some serious ones in a bingo hall, too, once or twice.

It'll be good to go with people who can appreciate the subculture without classist condescension.

Yay! So glad to discover that you're a bingo freak, too.

I had never thought over the class implications of bingo. Except that I was taken aback at how this bingo hall is kind of pricy! No church game. $20 to play a full set--though you can play a half-set, which is what I did, without feeling deprived... which entitles you to 1 card for all games instead of 2. And to be fair, extra cards for some of the games are only $.50 each.

Anyway. The Hebron Volunteer Firemen's Carnival (I am a fan of the carnival) sounds dreamy, and I am drooling over the fried oyster sandwich I don't have in my hand right now.

The Bingo Hall does have an asst. of fried snacks, though it's hard to eat while playing. ;-)

This place is just e. of the 23, on the north side of the street (it might be before you get to golfside). Or I'm happy to drive if you wanted to swing by here first. xoxo

I am frightened that I just mentioned kareoke (which I still find to be evil) and bingo in the same sentence. That is all.

i'm friending you too, yeasty-girl. (there was a group called the yeastie girls in the early 90s. anyone remeber them? college radio type thing.)
