I realize I have been slacking off and not posting what is going on with me. I have to admit there are a few reasons for this. I have made a couple realizations the past couple weeks that I have been going to Tua's. I have been saying for a while now that it is the equivalent of my Cheers but in the past couple of weeks I have realized how true that is. This past Wednesday sums everything up pretty nicely. Here is how the night went. After my negotiations class one of my classmates asked me what I was doing for the next 15-20 minutes in between classes and if I wanted to go to Side bar to watch Dice-K pitch. Yeah you know exactly what happened. I go to Side Bar intending to go back for class and after I had a beer and it would have been time to leave. I stayed. I ended up watching the rest of the game there and then headed over to karaoke. I didn't get to Tua's until 11 and yes I am usually there by 10 the latest. So I walk in and I see Chris and he looks at me and says "your late". I was like yeah thanks sorry about that. So I just get in the door and I see my friend Andrew who also asks me where I have been.
After I said hi to Andrew I turn around and there is a girl that I was chatting with last week and she was like. Hey we were wondering when you were going to get here. The BU Law kids are there so I say hi to Jacob and Tracey and another girl they know comes up and gives me a hug and was asking where I was. Basically I had people that I recognized but didn't really know coming up and giving me hugs and asking why I was late. Now I don't want to give the wrong idea here. I Love Tua's on a Wednesday and I enjoy the fact that I don't need to find a friend to come there with me and I can just go. It is a weird feeling to have people know who I am and I don't know them. I had three beers while I was at Sidebar and decided that I should not drink anymore so I just had a water at Tua's that night.
I have two weeks left of classes for law school. Then I am going to be working on my take home finals but come May 7th I will be done. Not officially since I won't have my grades but pretty much I will be done. The end of May I am going to have to start my Bar prep classes and I don't know that I will be able to be at Tua's every Wednesday in June and July. I mean I know that its a big stress relief for me and I am sure that I am going to pop in when I can but man it's going to be weird to not be there.
Oh one other thing that is kind of funny to realize that I think I have too much of an attachment to karaoke at Tua's. I have started looking at buying a place. I just don't want to do the roommate thing anymore and I figure with the real estate market the way that it is. I should be able to find something that I can afford. My sister Jen lives in Natick and there are some good condos out there that would be walking distance to the commuter rail and it would be a great commute. I would be living in the same town as one of my sisters and about 15 minutes from the rest of my family. What is holding me back. You guessed it. I wouldn't be able to go to karaoke because it's about 45 minutes I would have to get on the highway and I just don't know that getting home at 2AM on Wednesday is something that I would be able to handle. Now that isn't the only consideration but my point is I thought about it. I look at condos and check out the neighborhood, public transportation, can I have pets, and could I still go to karaoke from here.
Oh the other reason I have been slacking on posting is that with school winding down I have been I decided I need to go back to the gym. I have been very bad about taking care of myself the past four years, with my schedule I ate a lot of crap and didn't exercise and I figure that I needed to make that change and if I can start my last semester then I will be able to keep it up once this is all over. Wow I wish I went back to the gym before now. I has been helping me with my stress levels and I am feeling better about myself, yeah I have also started to lose some of the weight I put on but I know that is going to be a bit of a process. Now with work, school, and gym I have been very mellow about the social aspect. I figure that I just need to get through the next few weeks and finish school and then I can worry about that.
Other then that not too much else to report. I had a good Easter with the family last weekend and next weekend I am off to Maine for Holly Cucinotta's Wedding which I am sure will be a lot of fun.

Concert, Vet and train to Albany Anyone?
Ok first I need to tell you about my friend Andrew's band the Max Klau Band. They got the opportunity to play the Paradise Lounge last Thursday (March 22) as the opening act for this group Moshav and I got a couple friends and we decided to check it out. I have seen them before and I really like their music. Some of my friends asked me what kind of music is it. They have a very unique sound and I realize how that probably sounds that they aren't really good but that REALLY isn't true in my opinion. It is definitely mellow music and if you are studying or in a long car ride it would be the perfect music to have playing. If you want to check it out for yourself here is a link to their MySpace page.
Andrew's band was supposed to go on at 8 and they went on more like 9ish and there was a pretty good crowd in the bar. They played for about an hour and people really liked them. When they were done everyone was cheering for them to do an encore. I don't know when I have been at a show that they wanted the opening band to do an encore. Especially when most of the people there were there to see the other band preform. It was I think the largest venue they have played to date and in my opinion it was a success. I of course took some pictures and I will post a couple of those at some point this weekend. The band that went on after was also good. I had a really good night and ended up staying out a lot later then I expected. Oh well it was all in support of a friend. The next time I go to one of their shows I will be better about updating you on it.
Then Friday I had to leave work early because I had to take my dog to the vet which all ended up really well. I feel better after finding out what is wrong with her and every time I have to take her I get really nervous now that she is going to be 13 next month. This time everything turned out OK and I am very grateful. Friday night I went out to dinner with Steph who I went to high school with and we got back in touch at the Reunion. It was great to see her and catch up and we also went back to her apartment so we saw her BF Roy and Vito. Wow did that night make me realize how removed I am from Medway now. They were talking about people that we all went to high school with and with every name I was like WOW I haven't thought of that person in YEARS! Oh well to each their own right.
The highlight of my weekend was the next day when I jumped on a train to Albany so that I could go see Urs and Dan and meet Logan. He is SOO CUTE. He was 7 weeks old and such a good baby, he was sleeping when I got there but he woke up later and I got to hold him and play with him. He is such a little person and I know that Urs and Dan are going to make great parents. I was only there over night I got in at 5 on Saturday evening and left at 1 on Sunday so it was a short visit but I feel better now. I don't know why but I was just really anxious to get out there and see them and find out how the whole family was doing. Since Logan is still so young I didn't want to put any other stress on Urs because I am sure that right now she is still trying to figure things out and adjusting to being a Mom. Wow. Urs is a Mom. Seeing Logan react to Urs and Dan's voice was PRECIOUS. I am so glad that I got to see them and I hope that I can take another trip out there in June when I am studying for the bar and catch up on them again. Yeah I took a few pics of Logan too and I will put a couple up so you can see the little guy.

First day of Spring on a Wednesday means Karaoke
Well last night was fun but definitely a smaller crowd. Lynlee was able to make it out and I haven't seen her since I ran into her at the derby in February (for the full story of that night see my first post). It was really good to catch up with her and see how she is doing. She liked the new look to the bar and I have to agree that it is growing on me. Of course Tom the bartender almost got me to laugh out loud last night as I was up there singing. I was just talking to him about how much he must LOVE the renovations and the fact that there isn't a wall anymore since it means that he will be able to see and hear us that much better. He of course smiled and said "oh yeah of course. I was actually the one with the idea to tear down the wall." So when I was up there singing I look back towards the bar and Tom sees that and he starts dancing behind the bar. I really almost LOST it. It was so funny! But I managed to keep myself in check.
The crowd overall last night was smaller but everyone was fun and I made some new friends with some of the people that were there so that is always a good time. I also know I should have gone home early and not stayed until the end since tonight I am going to Andrew's show but hopefully that won't keep me out too late.
Every week I get more and more excited about how much closer I am to graduating. Of course then there is the ever present looming bar exam that I have to study for.
In case you are wondering the official count down has begun.
34 days until Classes are over
46 days until Finals are over for me
58 days until my Graduation Party
Song list from last night:
Son of a Preacher Man
Cold Hearted Snake
Build me up Buttercup
Don't Stop Believin

SPRING BREAK YEAY!
OK so I just turned on Beacon St and I am heading to An Tua Nua a little on the early side because I didn't have class this week. I am excited because I was getting dinner there after a good workout at the gym. My cellphone rings and I see that it is Rita who I just got to spend some time with a couple weeks ago when she was in town. I talk to her and she tells me that she is calling to put in a request for karaoke. That I have to sing Cindy Lauper Girls Just Wanna Have Fun and follows it up with I am going to check your blog tomorrow so I will know if you don't do it. Now this makes me realize that the blog is going to have some advantages and some disadvantages. I will be able to post things up here and everyone can check and read up on the goings on of my life but there is also the. Wait you mean people are actually reading this. This week has been INSANE at work and I have been a bit stressed so I wasn't able to work on this until I got snowed in tonight from the bad weather. So sorry for the delay in my story telling.
Anyway Wednesday was a really good night out. My friend Kristen who I haven't seen since probably last summer at some point came out. It was GREAT to see her and some of the other regulars were out and it is always good to catch up with everyone. The new setup definitely makes it seem so much more roomy there and that you can spread out a bit more and still watch what is going on. I decided to start off with Girls Just Wanna Have Fun since I knew if I thought about that I would change my mind. I have done it before and it's one of those songs that you think you know until you try to get up and sing it and then I am like wow ummm don't know this as well as I thought and my voice is a little low for this. Oh well. Rita I want you to know I sang that just for you.
For my next song up I was trying to decide what do you follow up Cindy Lauper with. Since it was not one of my better songs I had a couple things in mind and wrote a couple songs down and I turned over the slips, looked at Andrew and asked him to pick one. He picks one and I go OK I will go put this in. He looks at me and goes is that for you or for me. I died laughing I was like "Ummm Me why would you let me pick a song for you totally blind like that." I thought that it was great that he picked the slip first before asking any questions. You might be asking what he picked my second song was Can't Fight this Feeling Anymore (yes I did a little REO Speedwagon) it just seemed appropriate somehow.
There was a guy who was in last week and he got up and had a lot of fun you can tell that he had practiced that song a lot. It was funny because Ryan was there and that is usually his thing. So he decided it was time to pull out an old reliable. When I first started going to karaoke. All of my friends referred to Ryan as Mr. Roboto since we didn't know him. I have gotten to know him over time but that is still definitely one of my favorite songs that he does. So when Kev Mac Daddy makes a comment about it being a while since he has done it. I was SOO EXCITED. I even told Ryan later that I was having a really shitty week and him singing that really helped me snap out of that. Ryan didn't really know what to say to that but I really wasn't expecting him to say anything. I finished the night with You Shook Me All Night Long which was fun.
I realize that as time goes on and my last semester of law school is coming to a close I am just not sure what is going to happen once I am done with school. Am I going to be able to keep this up when I am studying for the bar? What about once school and the bar are over and I just have to work. Am I going to start to go to bed early and not want to go out on Wednesday's. I am not sure what the future will hold in regards to be being able to go to karaoke but I can say that when the time comes that I don't go there as regularly it will be an adjustment because just walking into that bar I automatically feel better about what is going on. I also look at the friends that I have made, the fact that all of us have gotten to know each other and I realize how much it is those people that have made Wednesdays what they are for me. I am grateful that I have a place at least one night a week that no matter what I can go to and just relax and catch up with friends. It truly is a good feeling to have a bar where "everyone knows your name".
Here are the pictures as promised the place we knew and loved. Notice the wall and doorway.
So here is the new look:

Come on you think that these are two different bars don't you. Well NOPE it is the same place I have been going to every Wednesday for way too long to admit to. I Promise!

What happened to MY bar?!
Well over the past few months there has been talk that they were going to be doing some renovations at An Tua Nua. I have been told repeatedly that the wall that is in the middle that separates the bar from the seating area was coming down. Now since I know how much Tom the bartender LOVES karaoke (which is not at all) I would always tease him that he was the one that suggested that the wall come down so he would be able to hear us better and make sure he could actually see us preform. He always just laughs he won't come out and say that he doesn't like karaoke but really if you were a captive audience and having to feed people drinks and the more intoxicated people got the more BAD singing you are subjected to I mean it's really a double edge sword.
Anyway I digress... so I walked into An Tua Nua last night and not only did the wall come down and now there are two big bar tables with stools around them where the walls used to be. They also repainted and the walls are now black instead of red. I realize that to those of you that haven't been there before you will hear this and go big deal. They took down a fake wall that was just in the middle of a room and painted the walls a different color. When you walk into the bar it has a totally different feel to it and last night was the first night they have been opened since the renovations so the place smelled of fresh paint. Tom the bartender asked me what I thought and I told him to ask me later I have no idea right now I am still trying to get used it. Wow it looks soo different. He laughed as he always does. Oh I almost forgot to mention that they put up flat screen TVs on the walls. The way karaoke works now is there is a TV on one of the bar tables that you can use while you are singing but the flat screen behind you also is showing the words. Now there are advantages to this people can watch you and sing along at the same time and be very impressed with your skills but there is also the fact that EVERYONE in the bar will know if you make a little hiccup. OOPPS oh well again just something I have to get used to.
Last night was another one of those nights where there was a ton of people out to hang out. I need to remember how warm that bar can get and that if I am going to wear a sweater or sweatshirt that I have a T-shirt of some kind on underneath. Yesterday I wore this cute sweater that I have that has a scarf attached to the sweater and with the bitter tempatures yesterday I thought it was the perfect time to wear it well I was regretting that when I was at Tua's let me tell you. Oh well. I had a good time there was a really good turn out of people and some of my friends that I haven't seen in a while decided to pop in which is always good.
At the end of the night when I was closing my tab Tom the bartender asked me again what I thought. I said "I like it. It definitely opens things up it is just SO different that I don't feel like I am here. Once I get over that and get used it it will be good." He told me that he was having a similar reaction that he looked around a few times that night and was like "where am I". Next week I promise I will bring my camera to karaoke and I will post before and after shots hopefully that will help give you some perspective on why last night felt so weird.
List of songs I preformed last night:
Careless Whisper - Wham
I Touch Myself - The Divinyls
To end the night it was:
Blaze of Glory - Jon Bon Jovi (which I sang with Tracy "BU law student")

Past couple Wednesdays at my favorite bar
Well last week everyone wanted to be out at An Tua Nua for karaoke not that I can blame them because it is always a great night. The bar was so packed that even though I got there at like 10. I only got up there for two songs. There was a good turn out of some of the regulars I haven't seen in a while which I was happy to see them. I mentioned earlier that night in between classes that I go to An Tua Nua every Wednesday to a couple of my classmates and later that night at the bar I was surprised to see that one of them decided to come and check it out. It turns out his roommate is one of the BC chemists which was funny when I was about to introduce him to people and he was like yeah that's my roommate. Yeah I felt like an idiot but how am I supposed to know when there was a ton of people there that he was talking about the person that I knew. Go figure.
Last week Deb was on February vacation so she decided to come out to karaoke since she probably won't be able to do it again until April vacation the earliest. It was really good to see her and I let her pick my first karaoke song and I forget how long she takes and that I really should have one in before I let her pick. Oh well what can you do right. Deb likes to pick the most ridiculous songs for me and last week was no exception she had me go up and sing Blame it on the Rain by Milli Vanilli and I in case you are wondering no I don't really know the song I only know the chorus but details and it's old enough nobody else did either it was fine. Not my best but fine. When I was standing there talking to everyone I saw a friend of one of my old roommates who now likes in Plymouth in the back of the bar. I went to say hi to her and see how my old roommate is doing since we haven't kept in touch all that well. When I get back there one of the girls with her turns and looks at me squells and gives me a huge hug. It was my old roommate she is a teacher and also had February vacation so she figured she would come out to karaoke and surprise everyone. It was good to see her and catch up and I told her that Deb was there and she went over to say hi. It was just overall such a random night of things happening. At the end of the night Noah and Suzy ended up coming in but there were too many people and Kevin wasn't able to put them in. They wanted to do Dirty Summer Nights which is always a crowd pleaser but unfortunately someone had already sang the normal version and Kevin doesn't like repeats close together I mean it is karaoke.
Now with such a huge turn out last week you might be wondering if this is going to keep up and all the sudden there are going to be a lot of people there every week or at least more people. I have been going long enough that I can say that after a Wednesday like we had last week I knew that this week it would be a lot less people. Wednesday is a hard night to go out and be out that late for and I know it took me a while to be able to stay out until 1 and still get up and go to work the next day and actually be functioning and productive. Last night was still a great night because Debbie decided to come out and I walked in and her and Noah were at the bar. I was so excited to see her since she has to be up and out of her apartment by 6:30 on Thursday mornings we don't get to see her that much anymore. :-( Since there wasn't a lot of people there last night it was pretty much the three of us and three or four other people singing it was ridiculous how many times we got up there. At the end of the night Noah and I just opened the book and pointed at something for the other to sing. He picked Blaze of Glory for me which is a lot of fun to sing and one of my better songs of the night. That is the highlights of my last two karaoke experiences in a nut shell.

They wanted to do Dirty Summer Nights which is always a crowd pleaser but unfortunately someone had already sang the normal version and Kevin doesn't like repeats close together I mean it is karaoke.
Now with such a huge turn out last week you might be wondering if this is going to keep up and all the sudden there are going to be a lot of people there every week or at least more people. I have been going long enough that I can say that after a Wednesday like we had last week I knew that this week it would be a lot less people. Wednesday is a hard night to go out and be out that late for and I know it took me a while to be able to stay out until 1 and still get up and go to work the next day and actually be functioning and productive. Last night was still a great night because Debbie decided to come out and I walked in and her and Noah were at the bar. I was so excited to see her since she has to be up and out of her apartment by 6:30 on Thursday mornings we don't get to see her that much anymore. :-( Since there wasn't a lot of people there last night it was pretty much the three of us and three or four other people singing it was ridiculous how many times we got up there. At the end of the night Noah and I just opened the book and pointed at something for the other to sing. He picked Blaze of Glory for me which is a lot of fun to sing and one of my better songs of the night. That is the highlights of my last two karaoke experiences in a nut shell.
