pics: the time i took my mom to a drag show

My mom came to visit for the first time this past weekend so that we could join the BFF and her mom at the Darius Rucker/Lady Antebellum concert. BUT... things took a detour when I told the BFF's mom about a drag brunch that happens here [at Croc's on 19th St.] every Sunday.

They really had no idea what they were getting themselves into [I've been a couple times with work].. but who would really know what to expect on a nice Sunday brunch with a bunch of drag queens?! No one.

I told them to grab some ones and we went to see those fabulous ladies.



Considering the fact my mom doesn't even allow such words as suck, piss, or retard in our house, things got real awkward real quick. She got pretty into it after a little while, though! As you can see, the boobies threw her off a little bit, but I'll be honest- even I was fascinated with how real they looked [and felt].

I will say that I didn't dare look anywhere near the moms when one queen started singing "I don't care how you f#@* me, just f#@* me where you can." It's one of the funniest songs ever, I was geeking out, but I did not want to see their reactions.

[FYI: She said she wanted these pictures for herself and to show my dad, so I can only assume she meant she wanted them available for the world, right?! I mean let's be honest... my parents should know who their daughter is at this point. If they don't, HELLOOOO WAKE UP CALL.]

Don't worry, we did some normal things too. The concert was AWESOME [Thompson Square is freakin adorable and I think I have developed a SERIOUS crush on Charles Kelley of Lady A. He was real cool.], and we had some quality beach time yesterday.


If you ever do plan on taking your mom to a drag show, prepare yourself. Or maybe prepare them. And don't get a table in the very middle of the show... that could be even more awkward. 

love,

tunes on tuesday 112409


WAHOO for Tuesday! Time to get some new songs! LOTS of videos today! [Thanks to The Hype Factor!]


Toni Braxton ft. Trey Songz--> So Yesterday



I. Love. It. Maybe I love it because I love that it's Toni Braxton AND Trey Songz, but it's a really pretty song. It reminds me of the old stuff. The good stuff. Ah. Obsessed. And so what if Trey's voice is higher than Toni's?!


Janet Jackson--> Make Me



Love this too! It's very genuine of Janet, don't ya think?! Greatness.


Jennifer Paige ft. Nick Carter--> Beautiful Lie



Hmmm... I can't decide how I feel about this song. It's not bad, but it's not living up to the past couple I just posted, for obvious reasons. It feels like a day of comebacks though, doesn't it?!

Chris Brown--> Crawl



Diggin' this video, big time! It just works. He definitely made sure to squeeze in that dance number, too.


Michael Buble--> Haven't Met You Yet



Michael Buble is good. He's refreshing. I enjoy, in a chill kind of way.


Shakira ft. Kid Cudi--> Did It Again



Ohh I can totally get down to this! I enjoy! Is it bad I wish Britney would have done it, though?!


Aaron Carter ft. Flo Rida--> Dance With Me



Another name we haven't heard from in a while, and another Carter brother! He's gotta make some money for all the back taxes he owes! Flo Rida makes any song good... I don't care what you say, it's true.


Adam Lambert--> Whataya Want From Me



Here we go.. Someone new. He's totally been American Idolized, don't ya think?! Maybe he likes this music, but it's not what I saw him creating.


Country Music:

Clay Walker--> She Won't Be Lonely Long
Meh, it's okay. Typical, really.

Steve Helms Band--> Between You and Me
I like this song, I think. It's slow, but it's pretty.

Darius Rucker--> Candy Cane Christmas
I'm anti-Christmas-music-before-Thanksgiving, but it's Darius Rucker, so anything is allowed.

Love and Theft--> Dancing In Circles
I heart these people. This isn't as great as "Runaway" in my mind, but I do like it. The violin adds a nice touch.

Zac Brown Band--> Highway 20 Ride
Must be a slow song d
