Friggin drunks. YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE!

A friend got stabbed last night trying to 86 a drunk from a local watering hole.

He was doing his job. And for his hard work he was rewarded with multiple lacerations, a night in the hospital, and a worker comp form (827) to process. Sheesh and on a Tuesday no less!

Big Strong Girlfriend and I almost went to that pub last night. We most likely wouldve been playing pool with my bouncer friend's girlfriend.

What the hell? Why the violence? Why?

Friggin old batty loony ugly dumbass good for nothing loser drunks.

HoPe U gEt HuMpEd ToDaY

Sure cuz its Wednesday. Or perhaps you just need to get laid. Either way I hope you score.

Like that new graphic? My friend Colleen did that up for me. I love it!

I broke my new years resolution today. I swore off the yummy hashbrowns from the hospital cafeteria. 28 days is pretty good. I'm going to allow myself the crunchy goodness once a month.

See? I like to compromise - not BE compromised. I dont like to be put into compromising positions - to which currently I am in a few!

But there aint anything I can do about any of them. And none of them are that important anyhow. They dont stop me from waking up each day happy as hell - being a productive, employed member of society - doing right by myself and those I love (which is many!) - and hitting the hay every night lucky to be alive.

Ok! Now that we've cleared that up.....

What an exciting week it was! Queer Womyns Speed Dating was a great success. I challenged the womyn throughout the evening to refrain from posting anything on craigslist regarding QSD and they exceeded my expectations! Great work ya'll!

Ahhh so I have a few days to breathe. Well one night really - tomorrow I'll be focusing on the upcoming dances and some more super cool announcements that are going to really get people talking - and it WONT be about craigslist or nutty professors.

2009 has started off with a bang!

Enjoy Justin Scott King w/ the QSD crowd Sat at Eugene Coffee Company!

Justin Scott King played some beautiful music at Queer Womyns Speed Dating last night didn't he ladies?
Singer/songwriter - with some Beatles and James Taylor thrown in - so smooth - so perfect for the vibe we had going on.....fantastic!

If you were unable to attend this round - please join us this Saturday from 7 - 9 p.m. at the Eugene Coffee Co - near the corner of 18th and Chambers.

Last night $20 was raised for Sexual Assault Support Services of Lane County. SASS is a non-profit organization providing community education, outreach, advocacy and support to survivors of sexual violence and their families.

Also - more than 50 pounds worth of food has been donated to Food For Lane County! Wow!!! As the second largest food bank in the state, FOOD for Lane County finds creative solutions to hunger and its root causes.

Great work systers! So please - lets celebrate ourselves, each other and our wonderful community.

See you this Saturday at the Eugene Coffee Company. While youre there put your email on their mailing list so you can get updates about their groovy Monday night gig - Showtimes' the L Word - previous weeks episode starts at 6:30 p.m. but get there as soon as 6 because last week it was packed - wall to wall - womyn!!!

Oh and while I have your attention - see you NEXT SATURDAY, JANUARY 31ST AT COZMIC PIZZA FOR THE FIRST OF THE MONTHLY GIRLS ALOUD DANCES FEATURING LOCAL HOMEGROWN DJ AMANDA!!!

ToNiTeS tHe NiGhT!


Finally! Queer Womyns Speed Dating is tonight at The Broadway. 22-24 womyn will be attending. I'm very excited.

I'm already starting to think about the next event - and I feel I should change the name to Queer Womyns Connections or Meetup - or something terribly clever. :)

I'm getting in the zone - bringing my alter-ego LJ out for the day. She has a one day pass.....ha!

We are happy to host Justin Scott King and friends as our musical guests!
JSK is a talented local musician who will perform throughout the event and will sing for us during the 20 minute intermission halfway thru the night. Awesome!

So this is how it'll work....You'll come into The Broadway and complete your registration. I need everyone to email me how they want to be contacted - phone/email or both sooner rather than later please! You'll confirm your contact information and collect your QSD number and booklet. Each date will last three minutes. Once the bell rings everyone will move to their next seat. (volunteers will assist you if you lose your way) :O)

If you are interested in your date - you'll write her QSD number in your booklet. At the end of the night you'll return the booklets to the registration. Matches are mutual - and this is a numbers game ladies! I'll contact you by Friday at 10 a.m. with your matches.

Questions? Email me! Email me anyways w/ your contact info! Hooray!
love and peace
