Fancy

I'm the drunken Indian :)  With my friend Caity, the bride.

I feel like my life has been on repeat
lately.  It’s like a c.d. that keeps playing the same songs over and over and over again.  It makes me crazy!  I can’t imagine how it makes those around me feel.  I gave my 2 weeks notice yesterday at
work.  I was glad to get that out of the way.  I feel like a complete ass leaving so soon…but such is life, I guess.  So, the move is just around the
corner.  Here we are once again, without a place to live.  It is all consuming at this point.  Why don’t we move to towns where there are actually homes avail for rent? Probably because Brian’s job keeps us in rural areas, and they are just  tough to come by.  So, my stress level is through the roof.  I’d done a good job of keeping it all at bay until I got back from AK. But now I’m back….and oh fuck.

Everything has been a whirlwind lately.  It feels like I haven’t been “home” in forever.  I’ve been gone on the weekends, and then spent 8 days in Alaska before returning the next morning to
work.  I can’t even convey to you how very tired I am….  The stress/the running from town to town is all catching up to me.  Speaking of which, we are heading to Vancouver tomorrow. I haven’t seen the boys in 2 weeks, and we are going to pick them up.  OMG how I’ve missed them.  This is the longest we’ve ever been apart, and it’s been a bit hard on me.  We were going to leave straight from
work today, but Brian’s insisting on not leaving until tomorrow.  I’m not crazy about doing long drives 2 days in a row like that, but I guess another night at home will be good for me.  It’s going to be a really quick trip, but I plan on going out with some good friends tomorrow evening. 
It’ll be the last time I’m in Vancouver before the move.  Oh man…I’m so going to miss living in the NW again.  It makes me want to cry just thinking about it…

Caity’s wedding turned out really beautifully.  It rained a bit, but nothing could’ve dampened anyone’s spirits.  It was just truly wonderful.  The reception was really pretty and so much fun.  I did the music, and it seemed to all turn out really well.  What a relief!  I spent a ton of time on it, and drug Amy and Walt into it to by having them help me w/ some of it.  Thank God for them!  While up there, I also took a charter with a bunch of people that were in town for the wedding to a bear observatory.  I hadn’t been to that island since I was a kid, and what a treat it was! 
We saw a mama snatch up a salmon with her cub.  I got some really great pics.  As we were leaving, we saw a brown bear walking along the coastline.  We followed him in the boat, for
quite a while.  He seemed to be enjoying the audience and stayed right where we could see him the whole time.  The 4th of July was also amazing.  Uh, yeah….drank way too much, but spent the entire day with family and friends.  My girlfriends and I even entered a rolling pin (throwing) contest and an axe throwing contest.  What a hoot! The night ended by watching my friend Penny and Tracy (The Allen Sisters, if you want to check them out online), play for hours. 
They always play at the Elks beer garden w/ their dad.  It isn’t announced or anything, they just start playing when they feel like it.  My good friend’s daughter also sang and played with them this year.  Watching them play is always the highlight of any trip up there.  The River Song is my favorite.  It’s spot on.

The trip was really great, but I was truly happy
to get home to Brian.  I really, really missed him this trip.  I don’t think I’ll travel up there again, without him.  It was such a bummer he couldn’t come this time.

This is kind of funny…I was looking at the house
we used to rent online today, and it brought back memories of all things family, etc., but the thing that made me most happy: seeing a picture of the pool table and thinking: I’ve had sex on that
thing
.  Bahahaha. I’m such a teenager.

Back to the wedding and music.  Caity wanted me to play Fancy when the ceremony was over, for them to walk off to.  When she told me this, I was so excited, yet puzzled as to why she would
want to play a song about a girl who’s pushed into prostitution by her mother, as a teenager (Reba song-fantastic).  But no, this is by Iggy somethingorother…  It’s a new song, and I love the balls that Caity has to play this in her wedding. Everyone seemed so excited and surprised when it came on.  It was a perfect
vibe!  Caity looked at me as she started walking off and gave me the biggest smile.  So, I’ll leave you the lyrics of what played after a beautiful, formal wedding ceremony on bluffs in Alaska. 
Love it!

Happy weekend everyone!

First thing's first, I'm the realist (realist)
Drop this and let the whole
world feel it (let them feel it)
And I'm still in the Murda Bizness
I
could hold you down, like I'm givin' lessons in physics (right, right)
You
should want a bad bitch like this (huh?)
Drop it low and pick it up just
like this (yeah)
Cup of Ace, cup of Goose, cup of Cris
High heels,
somethin' worth a half a ticket on my wrist (on my wrist)
Takin' all the
liquor straight, never chase that (never)
Rooftop like we bringin' '88 back
(what?)
Bring the hooks in, where the bass at?
Champagne spillin', you
should taste that

[Chorus: Charli XCX]
I'm so fancy
You
already know
I'm in the fast lane
From L.A. to Tokyo
I'm so
fancy
Can't you taste this gold?
Remember my name
'Bout to
blow

[Verse 2: Iggy Azalea]
I said, "Baby, I do this, I
thought that you knew this."
Can't stand no haters and honest, the truth
is
And my flow retarded, each beat did depart it
Swagger on stupid, I
can't shop in no department
To get my money on time, if they not money,
decline
And swear I meant that there so much that they give that line a
rewind
So get my money on time, if they not money, decline
I just can't
worry 'bout no haters, gotta stay on my grind
Now tell me, who that, who
that? That do that, do that?
Put that paper over all, I thought you knew
that, knew that
I be the I-G-G-Y, put my name in bold
I been working,
I'm up in here with some change to throw

[Chorus: Charli XCX]

I'm so fancy
You already know
I'm in the fast lane
From L.A. to
Tokyo
I'm so fancy
Can't you taste this gold?
Remember my name

'Bout to blow

[Bridge: Charli XCX]
Trash the hotel
Let's
get drunk on the mini bar
Make the phone call
Feels so good getting what
I want
Yeah, keep on turning it up
Chandelier swinging, we don't give a
fuck
Film star, yeah I'm deluxe
Classic, expensive, you don't get to
touch
Ow...

[Verse 3: Iggy Azalea]
Still stuntin', how you
love that?
Got the whole world asking how I does that
Hot girl, hands
off, don't touch that
Look at it I bet you wishing you could clutch that

It's just the way you like it, huh?
You so good, he's just wishing he could
bite it, huh?
Never turn down money,
Slaying these hoes, gold trigger on
the gun like

[Chorus: Charli XCX]
I'm so fancy
You already
know
I'm in the fast lane
From L.A. to Tokyo
I'm so fancy
Can't
you taste this gold?
Remember my name
'Bout to
blow

[Outro:]
Who that, who that, I-G-G-Y
That do that, do
that, I-I-G-G-Y
Who that, who that, I-I-I-G-G-Y
Blow


Who-who-who-who that, who that, I-G-G-Y
That do that, do that, I-I-G-G-Y

Who that, who that, I-I-I-G-G-Y
Blow
