zzzz Karaoke

8:55am JST Sunday 24 April 2005

Last night was a Jen's birthday party after party at karaoke. I stayed nearly two hours and sang a couple of Eminem songs, though they didn't have my favorites "Business" and "Rabbit Run." "Business" was listed in one of the indexes, but those digits came up as a different song. nightmare.

However, I ran back and forth like a maniac on the benches during a couple of songs, especially "I think we're alone now." I start running when she goes (something like)

running just as fast as we can
holding onto one another's hand
trying to get away into the night
and then we take a look around us
and then we tumble to the ground

And at that point I do a front roll onto the seats and wiggle dance for the remainder of the stanza and next verse.

Genkiman Daniel proved how shy he was in front of the mic by singing loudly enough to not need a mic (and still sounded melodic). Quite impressive! He sang basically every song, or at least he sang during every song. It was a bit of a trick for me to keep from laughing when he as singing "You ain't nothing but a hound dog" while I was doing "Without me" and trying to toss in my own references to hound dogs during the chorus.

This looks like a time for houndogs
so everybody just cry all the time
cause we need a little hounddog
cause it feels so empty without hounddogs

Which very completely threw off the cadence, but was fun even so.

I drank all the liquid sweetener they had outside by the drink machine (probably 4 or 6 ounces) by mixing it liberally with various drinks. ("I like my sugar with coffee and cream" is a Beastie Boys line that reminds me of this meaning of "liberal") On one of my drink mixing adventures, I found some of my favorite chocolate discarded in its package in the trash so I rescued it. It wasn't wet or gross and didn't seem to be otherwise tampered, but who in their right mind would throw away chocolate???? I rescued the three pieces and promptly gave them a good home, in my sugar filled stomach.

I fell asleep after Matteo extended us to a second hour past our originally planned 1 hour. Funny, that. Super loud, super sugar, but just bang sleep.

Jackie and Matteo smoked so my clothes smelled disgusting when I got back home, but I chose not to take a shower.
