tonight was open mic night at the remnant cafe. we host one every six weeks and yours truly gets/has to emcee. we started this about a year ago and it's a pretty good time. i remember we used to struggle to get a decent line-up of performers. now, we're at a point where i'm thinking we may have to limit the number of acts. i'll definitely have to stop singing my silly songs. (tonight i sang california girls by the beach boys).

tonight's debuts were cool. jeannie on drums was fun. pat's rendition of fake, plastic trees was rockin. i like seeing them perform more than the normal 3-song set by jj's band. (no offense to the band... i'm just saying... you know...)

i'm not sure what it is-- maybe the emceeing, or maybe somebody slipped something into my water-- but i'm beat. i'm completely exhausted and was no fun at dinner. maybe this is why i'm truly an introvert... because my "functioning extrovertedness" wears me out. at this rate, i'll be asleep before midnight. wow.
