best birfday prezzie ever

Bunny Kisses!

Last night while I was lying on the couch, Pepper licked my forehead a little bit - like she was trying to groom my eyebrow.

*dead of cute*

Thanks for all the birthday wishes - I really needed them, and you'll all know why in a couple of weeks.

*giggles*

Pepper is currently hiding behind the futon and thumping at the Roomba.

*giggles harder*

I'm thinking "Big Red" as a name for my robo-slave, mainly because I'm not-original like that.

Also because so far it has attempted to eat one of my rugs.

Now it can be told

It is with heavy hearts that we announce that Minstrosity’s final performance will be at the Stronghold Olde English Faire on October 7-8th, 2006.

To everything there is a season, and people grow and change. It seems fitting that as this our 9th season draws to a close, that we close this chapter in our lives as well.

Josie and her wife Nancy will be moving to Michigan, and her plans include obtaining a university degree in music, as well as pursuing other professional opportunities. John and Wendy will remain in Chicago, and are in the process of forming a new band. Look for more information in the weeks and months ahead as we finalize our plans.

www.minstrosity.com will remain active, and CDs can still be ordered though the website or on CDBaby.com, or directly from any of us. The website will also be a great place to keep up on all our performance activities, as we intend to post links on the main page.

We want to take this opportunity to thank all our fans and the many people who have supported us over the past nine seasons. This decision does not come easily for any of us, and we hope to have your support and encouragement as we move forward.

Let us drink and be merry, all grief to refrain
For we may or might never all meet here again.

Wendy Zdrodowski
