I Am Woman, Watch Me Play the Tambourine

Dude, we had the best time EVER at Bachelor Girl Night at Harley’s Pub.

Honestly, it couldn’t have been better. We got to hang out, meet some new people, give away a bunch of stickers, drink a few adult beverages and listen to John and his band, Everyday Hemingway, rock everyone’s faces off.

Thanks so much to everyone who came out and supported Bachelor Girl and the band. Everyone agreed it was a really, really special night, and you all made it even more amazing.

Quite a few folks from the Bachelor Girl Blogosphere were there, among them Jessica the Web Mistress, Mark, Russell and Casey. Russell tried his best to get us into a bar fight, but alas, fisticuffs eluded him. Maybe next time.

But I know you’re all waiting for just one thing and wishing I would shut the hell up and get to it already.

And here it is:

The Bachelor Girl Anthem!!

(The lady in the background would like you to know that she loves Chris and he is her baby. So, like…don’t forget, OK?)

I love an apple martini
High heels by Jimmy Choo
Handbag designed by Marc Jacobs
Only one thing left to do (So what do I do?)
I’ll get the girls all together
Make a night on the town
We stick like birds of a feather
And watch the games going down…hey hey
Don’t need a man to feel special
Or define my life
I’ve got my own thing going
And I’m nobody’s wife
But that doesn’t mean I won’t
Give love a whirl
Deep down I’m just a romantic
Bachelor Girl
I’m just a Bachelor Girl x 4
Life isn’t Sex and the City
Still I dream Manolo Blahnik
But who really needs Dolce Gabbana
When inside I’m supersonic
I’ll get the girls all together
Make a night on the town
We stick like birds of a feather
And watch the games going down…hey hey
Don’t need a man to feel special
Or define my life
I’ve got my own thing going
And I’m nobody’s wife
But that doesn’t mean I won’t
Give love a whirl
Deep down I’m just a romantic
Bachelor Girl
I’m just a Bachelor Girl hey hey x 4
Thank God for Facebook and Twitter
Keeping up with my friends
And who needs to watch Desperate Housewives
‘Cause my drama never ends (So what do I do?)
I’ll get the girls all together
Make a night on the town
We stick like birds of a feather
And watch the games going down…hey hey
Don’t need a man to feel special
Or define my life
I’ve got my own thing going
And I’m nobody’s wife
But that doesn’t mean I won’t
Give love a whirl
Deep down I’m just a romantic
Bachelor Girl
I’m just a Bachelor Girl x 8

Performed by Everyday Hemingway

Do I have mad tambourine skillz or WHAT?!

“Or what,” you say.

I mean, Y’ALL. A saxophone. You know you’ve officially Made It when there is a freaking SAXOPHONE in your theme song. I can die now, is what I’m saying.

Special thanks to Jessica the Web Mistress for a) having a video camera, b) remembering to bring said video camera and c) taping the performance in such a way that we are not all motion-sick and nauseous after watching it.

That girl is organized in ways I can only dream about.

As for Johnny B. and Everyday Hemingway? Well, they are just going to have to live with the knowledge that on Friday night, they made me the happiest girl in the whole state of Louisiana. You guys are incredible, and you gave me an experience I’ll never forget. You’ve got a lifelong fan in this Bachelor Girl.

Your still-giddy
