You can 1) leave a comment at the end of a blog entry post, 2) Join our facebook group (if you haven't already) and leave a wall post, or 3) e-mail us at comments@procrastinatorsparadise.com.

I Love This Band!

In case you haven't heard, Columbia, SC based band I Nine got signed by a record label and now has a single out called "Seven Days of Lonely." If you don't know who I Nine is, you should. They are a rock band of three guys with a female lead singer and they have a cello. Being a rock band with a cello already gives them cool points. Being a rock band with a cello that can actually play good music makes them awesome. While I don't know this band personally, the vibe you get from them is that they really love music and have a desire to put good music out into the world. Which hopefully means no organized dance routines or wardrobe malfunctions during their shows in the future. Check out their music video for "Seven Days of Lonely" below and then, if you want to know more, visit them on Myspace.

My First Gay Date...

T'was the Christmas season of 2000, so gifts were to be purchased. I prepared to leave LA (Lancaster, SC) and head to Charlotte to the journeyland that is the Carolina Place mall. On the way I called a buddy and asked him if he wanted to go. For the sake of this blog we shall call this buddy...Clay Aiken. Clay agreed to go and drive seperately to Charlotte because I live far out in the country, so we just meet up there...


CLUE #1 THAT THIS WAS A GAY DATE

First we go around to some stores and I get most of my presents and Clay gets most of his. This shopping outing takes around 3 - 4 hours; that's about 1-4 hours longer than I wanted it to last...


CLUE #2 - DINNER

After this lengthy excursion and the fact that I have been conditioned into thinking that I must eat at the mall when I go, we went to find something to eat. Clay being the gentleman that he is offered to pay for the meal. I mean I'm not going to turn a meal down. Who would; right, ladies?


CLUE#3 - A MOVIE

After I stuffed myself with free lo mein and general Tsao's, I was ready for a long "-*Itis" filled evening in LA to hangout with my sister, but those thoughts were curtailed as I was tempted with going to see "Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon." I initially declined, for the porcelain throne was calling my name, but then the clincher came when Clay said, "its on me," and i was there like a stuck up girl on a one time date. I walked with him to the booth as he ordered both of our tickets...


CLUE#4 - THE GIVEAWAY

Deep within a tragic scene of the movie with much blood shed and anticipation in the air, I felt a weight heavier than gravity, yet lighter than an anvil. I knew it had to be none other than a male arm. I looked Clay in the eyes and told him the words no lover wants to hear in the heat of the moment, "I have to poop; Ill be right back," and just like that the date ended. I left with my presents, the Itis, half a subtitled movie and I guess my dignity...
or did I?



*Itis is that feeling you get after you have eaten a lot and you feel really tired, but also goofy. You typically get tickled really easily when you have the Itis which then leads in uncontrollable laughter. Its a true condition. Additional side effects include pooping and in extreme circumstances "wildin out and gettin violent"
