We had a good time last night at the Xiu Xiu concert, but it was an odd scene at the House. It’s usually the club for the aging hipster set, but there were quite a few kids drinking and being somewhat obnoxious. Xiu Xiu’s music is fragile and emotional with moments of silence in between songs. The drunks filled those quiet moments with heckling and loud hook-up conversations mere feet away from the band. I came awfully close to losing it.

Other than that, the opening acts were not my cup of tea. We ended up having to go to Walgreen’s to buy earplugs midway through the first opening act. I just don’t enjoy my ears ringing the next day as much as I used to.

Today is an exciting day for Caitlin. Her school program does trips out into the community every Friday in order to teach the kids some independent life skills. The first trip is to the glamorous Wal-Mart in town. We sent Caitlin with some money to buy more Star Wars Galactic Heroes figures. That made a happy little girl.

While Cait’s shopping, [livejournal.com profile] rarelylynne and I are writing on side-by-side laptops. The romance never ends. :)

  • 09:07 I had a wondeful time at the Xiu Xiu concert last night, even though that was a terrible audience. Now it's time to write. #
  • 11:21 I'm very pleased with this morning's rewrites. Now I must get the girl. I hope she enjoyed her Wal-Mart adventure. #
  • 16:24 I'm drained after driving back and forth from Easter Seals for Caitlin's OT. I really hope they open an office in DeKalb someday. #
