alleviating the weird juju and getting back to the euphoria

“guess what?” i screeched into the phone. “what?” sister #2 asked. “the tickets, they sold out in 45 minutes.” “WAHOOO!” she shouted. “how do you know?” “i was reading it on my paul westerberg message board.” “wow, we’re so lucky. i rock.” she said, referring to my panic-induced ticket buying snafu that caused her to [...]

“where are you going?” i howled. “i’m still angry.” “if we have to stay here until your unangry, we’ll never get to leave,” the artguy said. but they stayed and now i’m a little less angry after spewing forth all the venom from the craptacular meeting that was crappy.
