goodbye is the hardest thing to say, but a free breakfast helps

I am still exhausted from the move, I don't think I have many more of these in me.
Next time I might just burn the place to the ground and start over.
Sunday morning was the Towne Properties resident party/breakfast.
That was awesome timing and I'm not ashamed to say I may have gone through the food line more than once.
Good times, sorry to say goodbye to everyone, but we'll still see them around town.

We got a special performance of various Shakespeare acts by the Cincinnati Shakespeare Festival.

OTRTweetup

I got three pictures from what seemed liked the three minutes I was there, but I really needed a break from packing and I really couldn't stay. But it was nice giving everyone a quick hello/goodbye at the #OTRTweetup.
If you're on twitter, you need to go to @kate_the_great's tweetups and meet the hottest tweeters in Cincinnati and get connected.
And a shoutout to Amy from CincyChic for hosting.

I love @missprint95's expression, don't hate me

our first home cooked meal at Parker Flats

After a frantic hours long search we found enough equipment to actually cook ourselves dinner tonight. I couldn't do one more night of take out.
Excuse the mess, its gonna take a few more days.

lamo day at Casa 5chw4r7z

We're in full on pack mode now, getting close to ready for the Friday move.

I haven't felt too bad about the whole President thing until last night, I started getting cold chills down my back. Whats going to happen when the hangover wears off? This is scary stuff, talking about hope and change is all well and good, but for some reason everyone that voted for Obama forgot their 5th grade government lessons. The executive branch can't change anything, only the legislative branch can. Are all those entrenched Representatives and Congress people going to be anymore willing to stick their necks out for Obama than they were with Bush or Clinton?
I think deep down you already know the answer to that.

Building Cincinnati asks, can Parker Flats be the worst condo development in Cincinnati?[where:353 west fourth st cincinnati ohio 45202]

new hair colors, Democrat beer downtown Saturday night

All the coolest people in Cincinnati were at Twist Saturday night.
If you weren't there, sorry, don't be a loser next time.
Anyhow it was probably for the best because chances are Kate the Great, Ms 5chw4r7z and I were dis'n the dirt on you.
Just joking, all the Cincinnati tweeters and bloggers are our favs.

I'm scoop'n everyone in Cincy on Kate's new do', it looked pretty hot under the lights at Twist, all the blond chicks were totally jealous and sat down with her hopin it would rub off.
Kate was drinking Democrat beer, I won't touch the stuff just in case its contagious.
Why democrat beer? Long story, Brodi3man and I were out one night drinking at the Northside Tavern working our way through all the draft beers and that was the last one, the Beer Goddess says, yeah that's _____ favorite beer just as he started drinking and I shouted, spit it out its Democrat beer. Guess you had to be there, just one more example of why you're not hanging out with the hot crowd.

i LOve You becausE

At the Know Theatre opening night last Saturday.
So as you know I'm not a musical fan and probably not the best person to review this show.
So, if you like musicals stop reading right here and go see it.
If you dislike musicals like I do here's the scoop.

Of course the cast at the Know is always going to be amazing and Daniel S. Hines while not the lead totally pulled off the goofy brother and while not stealing the show, put his stamp on it.
A couple songs, I wasn't sure if it was a technical issue or the words were rushed or mumbled but I couldn't make out what they were singing, but all but those two or three songs came through crystal clear. The longer solo mushy songs would lose me and I'd start drifting off, but then the tempo would change and the humor, timing and songs like Just Friends would always snap me right back into it.
I also liked how they handled the scene changes between the apartment and the bar, simple but effective.
i would say, if you dislike musicals like I do, take one for the team and go see it, you'll enjoy the majority of it and it won't be the worst musical you see by a longshot.

comfort food

This brutal cold has me craving and thinking today.
A SoyJoy bar isn't going to cut it, I need to wrap some heavy furs around myself and head into the deep woods with about ten friends and spear a woolly mammoth. It just seems ice age like frigid air calls for meat thats had a spear stuck in it and a blazing bonfire.
Man, when it gets this cold I can smell the fires and smell the food cooking.
Brings back the Boy Scout days and the Klondike Derbys.
Crazy, awesome beer drinking weather too.
Something about the colder it is, the richer and fatter the food is I crave.

And that brings up something else. Why Was the optimal hunting party 9 - 12 men?
Why can you can deeply care care for your immediate family and a few others, 10 - 15 people and after that it trails off some.
Most sports teams are 9 - 12 or so people.
Interesting we take that for granted.
Or is there something to it?

funky happenings and other funky funkyness

Dateline: Jan 14th 12 noon

Sitting at the pool, holding an ice cold cocktail smoking a big cigar.
gentle breezes, fun happy peoples.
Until I dropped my drink and spilled it in my lap.
Everyone got ugly fast and rushed me.
next thing I know they're shaking me
Mr 5chw4r7z, Mr 5chw4r7z are you OK?
Damn, what was I thinking giving blood? That was crazy, lol.
Mustof dropped out there for a second.
First thing the technician asked, "go anywhere?" yeah, I was smoking a cigar. And he busted out laughing, thats awesome he said.

After a couple hour nap we headed to the Madison to see George Clinton.
swear to God there were 87 people on stage, how do they make any money?
I'm bummed the video of the roller chick in the gold shinny bikini didnt come out better but you get the jist of it.
Man is George old, he came out for the last couple songs and just kinda stood around.
But we got our funk on so it was a good night.

I didn't get nada for my birthday, I got nada for my birthday

It was bitterly cold out last night, not fit fo man nor beast. We walked straight there and back.
As we walked in we were greeted by huge knowing smiles and everyone asking Ms. 5chw4r7z about her food blog, its not really a food blog she said but its a blog.
Well anyhow we see your pictures all over the internet.
Well yes,yes you do.
And does anyone wave the nada flag harder than the 5chw4r7z? I don't think so.

Andrews pictures are popping up all over now.

Hey is that ekalb?
