So good hearing from two of la familia

I know this is starting to get repetitive saying this every Friday, but since it is eight pages after all: That Paco de Pena song En Las Cuevas is coming along at guitar practice ... even if I have been stuck on the third page for the last couple of weeks. This week, I start on the fourth page.

I carried my guitar around the mall with me as a chick magnet. Dana was working at Lush Cosmetics. She's renewed in the database.

At Hot Topic, I avoided eye contact with my stalker. Although, admittedly, I didn't spot her until I walked inside. But I was able to put the earphones on to listen to music at the music station, which translated to: Don't annoy me. But I could feel her gaze undressing me as I listened to the new Tech N9ne and Bad Meets Evil albums.

There's this store called American Basics, which I've long suspected could just be a re-branding of the now defunct store Body Basic. (See entry 5/11/11.) As I walked by, I'm not sure, but I think I saw this chick named Jessica, whom I haven't seen since 4/18/11. She worked at the Halloween store last year and when she coincidentally ended up working at Body Basic months later, I thought it was a sign that I should bust a #3 to her. I'll have to confirm the identity later.

Mommy found her phone, which had been missing all of yesterday. She dropped it in the garage. She has the night off from work due to the rehearsal for cousin Kathy's wedding tomorrow. But as soon as she left for the gym and to pick up dry cleaning, I had the house to myself ...

I was firing up the porn when Michelle in Nebraska text-messaged me ...

MICHELLE: Dude! We're having dinner and Kelly Clarkson's Since You Been Gone is on ... miss you!

As I busted a #3 to the afformentioned Jessica, John Mayer's Daughters started playing on the radio.

Afterward, I got back to Michelle ...

RYAN: It makes me feel all warm and tingly that you all think of me whenever Kelly Clarkson comes on. Likewise, John Mayer was just playing on the radio.

After WWE Smackdown I met up with mommy at In-N-Out for dinner. Her deaf coworker was sitting across from us with his posse, all of them doing these animated hand gestures.

MOMMY: They're really good at sign language.
RYAN: I thought it was Tourette's [Syndrome].
MOMMY: Shhh!

I got an email from Matt who's studying abroad in Tokyo, Japan:

Ever had to carry a blackout drunk girl through a crowded train station at 12:30 at night? The stares you get from Japanese people are quite amusing ...

It was so good to hear from a couple from the familia. (Sigh.)
