It's My Party I Can Sing If I Want To

June 2024

Some exciting things are cooking up for my book launch of The High-Flying Adventures of Captain Grief on June the 26th at The Only cafe and bar. I would say that the royal we are very excited to give you more details but Captain Grief isn’t all that excited about it.

Personally, I think she’s the one who’s a little jelly now I am going to be the one front and centre for the readings (and other melodic presentations). I’m looking at it as a real coming out event and pulling out ALL the stops. Problem is they aren’t her ideas.

I vetoed the pie eating/wet t-shirt contest on principal. I would have been open to the Kara-oke machine but she wanted to perform a cover song called I’m Too Sexy For My Cape wearing a yellow sequined bikini. I figured that was a little too much. She set a new record for super sulking.

Basically the conversation started and finished like this.

Captain Grief: thought Babs was here, what’s with the show tunes?

Kelly: I have to get in tune before the book launch.

CG: what?

Kelly: The book launch!

CG: Hun?

Kelly: I said I have to get ready….ah wait. What do you have in your ears?

CG: Pardon?

Kelly: what do you have in your ears?

CG:Excuse me?

Kelly: You jerk.

So while helping a friend move this weekend I decided to use my Captain Grief free time to further my efforts for an awesome book bash!
