<p>Oh sweet mother of pasta what did I do?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>A musical friend, a "recording artiste" has 3 local concerts a year which are glorified house concerts held at a community centre and which attract a couple of hundred people over two shows on a Sunday. He usually has an hour set, a break, then a guest for half an hour, a few more songs and then closes with a couple with the guest. He's asked me to guest on his next show.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I said "sure" when what I really wanted, needed to say was "Are you f*cking out of your gourd?". I stood there dumbfounded in this sort of fugue state, my brain wondering who had just hijacked its systems. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>He asked "May 8th a good date?" and I said "Yeah, that's a great date, we're just back from vacation" when what I really wanted, needed to say was "I would sooner have my appendix removed with a spork."</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Good, sweet child of the almighty. </p>
