Oh my! Being as big a fan of the Holly Jolly Trolley as I am, I’m sure you all know that it is starting again this Friday, the day after Thanksgiving AND the day before LKO. Yay!! Trolley rides before Leppo party—my toes hurt from being curled up!

Route map here.

 

Totally unrelated but didn’t think it needed its own topic: Here’s a quiz Jum Jum made about her dad last night.

Last year, this time, hanging in the catacombs with Herb. We were grooving to Guano when he went on a tangential Christmas rant wherein he described the Trolley as the "Dolly Parton Fartin".

I pee-peed ‘em.

That’s what we called it when we wondered aloud why the Trolly couldn’t just run all year between bars. If it still doesn’t make sense, focus on the first word.

Although, the Holly Dolly Trolly also has it’s merits.

Cool city, cooler boobs, icy hot for the back pain.

I always hear Burl singing about that goddamn trolley.  It’s romantik to have a nice carriage ride through downtown, maybe a scratchy handjob under a wolly blanket,  until this happens.

Tonight?

Submitted by Ms. Info on Wed, 11/21/2007 - 12:41pm.

Any of you all doing anything non-family related tonight? I’m interested in scoring a Martinin’s calzone if they’re open. Not that you need to partake in that but…we’ll be in Michigan soon.

Don’t know how long we’ll (I’ll) stay as the semester final countdown is hitting me in the face, pummeling me repeatedly with water-damaged hardbound copies of all four volumes of the Dewey Decimal Classification Manual. Stupid Dewey…

It is quite likely that one or both of us will (eventually) be trying to enjoy the "Biggest Bar Night of the Year" tm (according to the Bar Industry). Give us a call! At the minimum, Tim can distract Richard while I watch Project Runway.

Does this mean you won’t be here on Saturday? School schmool! (Easy for me to say, I have senioritis AND arthritis.)

If I can spend some quality time at either the Kalamazoo or Kentwood Public Libraries Friday and\or Saturday to cozy up with the DDC22 and perhaps kidnap a bona fide cataloger at either library then I may be able to stay for Saturday. If not - then it’s back to CU for me and no See You.

sorry for any dissing of the goings-on last night—Duster’s mom wound up being admitted to the cardiac unit at Borgess. No panic—just tests and such, but we still don’t know how long she’s in for or anything. Dangit. We should know more later today. Still planning on turkeying it up with various family members and such, and LKO is GO! Just a weird surprise for the holidays, and I’m feeling bad for her being stuck in a ward on the biggest delicious eating day of the year and the fact that we probably can’t take her any food goodies because she’s only allowed to eat what has a heart next to it on the hospital menu. Booooo. In the meantime, i am thankful for coffee and sweatshirts and cats and friends.

… and the Trolley’s got me on pins and needles, man! We can has trollee!!1! Metro Transit people answer my query:

“We still don’t have a contract with DKI at this point, but it is very likely we will have the service. We have the vehicle in our garage and it is decorated and we are training our drivers on it. I just don’t have the details on the schedule yet. Check back at the end of the week.

This too? “Bronson Park comes to life in its holiday splendor this Friday, November 28, when the City of Kalamazoo hosts its annual TREE LIGHTING CEREMONY.” I feel my coat closet coming to life in its holiday splendor! And also: “when out of the darkness, thousands of bulbs alight to herald in this beautiful season of celebrations”?! Happy birthday Jesus Alva Edison — you’re my best holiday ever!

They didn’t mention that at the stroke of midnight, Tesla will rise from his grave and replace all those fucking edison bulbs with his own.
