Gods and Gaskets

J: We spent Friday evening and Saturday getting ready for this year's Ariesfest at DnA's place. I built the fire area and Gina built the Nookie Nook, the traditional small romantic cozy tent on the side. Also on Saturday Gina went to Izolda's Wedding shower, the Relaxation Super Hero Meeting.

The costume theme for Ariesfest this year was "come as your favorite god or mythical creature." Chris dressed as a mummified pharaoh. Gina came as a Doggess (see her picture below), and it took a while for some of her friends to recognize her! Jenny went as "pretty." I put on a clown nose and went to the party as the loneliest god in the world— Tormentada, the Sad Clown of Atheism. I tried to convince people that the whole party was just a masquerade, but to no avail. I had a great time dancing and didging and conversing with "gods" around the fire. We left the party around five in the morning.

On Sunday afternoon Skip came over with his daughter Lily, who is only 17 months old but very loquacious for her age. She kept saying Gina's name over and over, like it was her special joke. We all went to
DnA's to help other friends dismantle the party. We took down the big "Den of Iniquity" tent and eventually Gina and I fell asleep on DnA's futon couch, so when we woke up we went home and fell asleep again, for over twelve hours!

On Monday night Gina, Alison, Kristin
and I went downtown to a little club called DC9 to see one of our favorite bands— The Gaskets! They rocked the joint, natch. The other two bands that played were Lejeune and Greenland. I liked Lejeune's sci-fi tinted lyrics.

Next week I'm planning to update GinohnNews on Monday because I'm taking a little Java class on Wednesday night.
