Since school ended I am having trouble finding the serenity. Lot's of unpleasantness. Most of it work related. I refuse to upset or depress you. So let's just get to the shoe.
And this weeks high note....

Finding The Sunny Side
The show last friday was extravaganza eleganza and super fun to boot.
My birthday is roughly five weeks away. I know what I want for my birthday. I agreed to do a Wall of Food Show on my birthday. That's what you can get me. Come to the show and give some money twords AIDS Outreach Centers food pantry. Seeing your smiling face is all I need for my birthday.
A present is required from all who don't come to the show.
Let's get to the videos.......and on with the shoe
This weeks high note is a remnant from the scary-okee days.

Who Knew
Went out last night to donate to Gay Pride Week and see some folks. Mostly I was there to promote our show. Jesse has his own business to take care and Scott had to work.
I will get to the videos. First let me give you a peek behind the curtain.
What it takes to put on a drag show. More specifically a drag performance.
1) It starts with getting a booking. If you are a wanna-be female impersonator there are numerous shows that take inexperienced talent.
2) Once you have a booking you need basic equipment. Just from first look there are obvious differences between a male and female body. Titties and hips, to be specific. God bless poly-styrene foam. Make-up, lashes, and spray glitter. Cans upon cans of spray glitter. My bedroom looks like Mariah Carey vomited in here.
3) Then you have to put together numbers. Inspiration is a funny thing. Sometimes a number is centered around an outfit. At other times it is a song. Regardless the number has to be complete. The dress, shoes, hair, and accessories MUST match the song. Otherwise you have a mess on your hands and nobody will give you any money.
This takes a lot of work. Which is why I only do shows once a month or so. Someday I may be kind enough to let some wanna be documentarian in on the whole process form beginning to end. Until then.......
Let's get on with the shoe
I hate to make Aretha jerk the curtain but it's my show.
A little GLC for your MUG
When I heard this version of this particular song, I smiled. It's not their cover of Gin and Juice but it is still awesome.
Always leave them wanting more. Somebody asked me where I keep coming up with these. My answer....you really don't want to know.
Still have to pack the car and shave. Maybe I'll find time for a nap after lunch.

Happy Mothers Day
Around here we try and recognize major holidays. I am not sure if Mothers Day counts. Hear me out!! I think the writers of The Middle got it right. Fathers Day is great because a Mom is in charge. Mothers Day is hell because NOBODY is in charge. Another thing, I wish mothers would stop with the whole I don't want anything. BULLSH!T!! You want. We all want! Just tell us. Dad is easy to buy gifts for. Don't make this harder than it is. Just a little FYI to any fathers who may be reading this. The greatest gift you can give on Mothers Day is silence. Grab the kids and go somewhere. Just give the poor woman a day without educational television, hide and go seek, and the ever popular Whats That Smell.
Let's get to some videos. Going to try and run the gambit and hit everybody.
Something more traditional. Couldn't find the Kathy Lee Gifford version.
A little something more hardcore
Something more dirt road country for ya. This is classic footage. Your welcome
We can't have a Happiness without a comedy video.
Love and Kisses to all the Mothers
