the hearts and laserbeams blog!

recently blogger decided we can't publish my blog to my own website anymore so here we are! pardon the dust, and please visit us online at www.heartsandlaserbeams.com!

hearts and laserbeams is the wacky good-times art and design by me, steph calvert. i team up with robots, cupcakes, and stick people to show people art isn’t all about seriousness, missing ears, and deep thoughts; it can actually be tons of fun.

last night michelle, lori and i went to hermosa suzys, because their friend jeff's in this comedy band raymond and scum, and they were having a show.

first lemme tells ya about hermosa suzys. their waitresses are the jerkiest jerks that ever jerked, okay? what a bunch of sourpusses! oh my freaking lord! i don't know how it worked out for the other disney people we were sitting with, but the three of us asked our waitress if we could split the bill, me on one and them on the other, and i thought she was about to cut me. no joke. and pass on the spinach dip, people, unless you like spinach soup with huge hunks of cheese in it. and they gave us like 3 chips to eat the dip with. (i forgot to check if they charged us for the extra chips i asked for later...) the drinks, they were tasty, cuz there's nothing you can do to screw up taking a bottlecap off a corona or a twisty apple drink thing.

now i will transition into telling you about the bands that came on before raymond and scum. it will be a completely smooth transition. lovely. did you notice? see, you totally didn't. okay now here's where i tell you we weren't really paying attention to the bands before raymond and scum... there was just too much drinkin' goin on. i feel bad saying that, i mean i really did try to listen and keep an open mind, you know? but we were too busy drinking and being jackasses. therefore, they get no more mention here.

by the time the third guy was finishing up his set i was trying to remember just how sharp is that girl scout knife i keep in my purse, because sweet lord if raymond and scum didn't start playing soon i was going to have to slit my wrists. thank god that was completely unneccessary, as raymond and scum came on, and it was very, very fun! good music, fun lyrics... and they brought michelle up on stage to serenade her with their classic hit, "sweet little stripper" which always earns points in my book!

also completely original, was they were selling cds. what's that, you say? every band does that? no. does every band have the cds that are for sale on stage with them, and do they let you interrupt the song they're playing to go up to the stage and buy one? i think not. so i took advantage of that, made an ass of myself, and it was funny. probably mostly because i was a bit, um, two sheets to the wind is one that josh is fond of saying.

so for rocking out, i bestow upon raymond and scum the steph seal of approval, and i highly recommend their cd, you will not be disappointed! thier "does this make me gay" will surely be a campfire classic for the generations!

i'm back in town!!! hooray!!!

ps-i think any song titled "does this make me gay" should automatically become the new national anthem. actually, i think that's a law or something....
