oh mama. its been about three fifty years since i've updated this mofo. what do i wanna talk about?? ok, laura will agree with me on this one heh. do you ever notice that some people's writing or art or you know their creativity makes you creative?? i feel like such a rip-off b/c i think i'm like copying someone's style when i get all inspired like that, but i can't help it. some people are just so talented with words, they make you wish you were as talented with words. i don't know kind of rambling subject but whatever.

i would like to announce that next saturday is ADAM'S SHOW. it's aieon's first real show at the emphorium and i'm super 'cited!!!! i've been waiting like at least 6 months to hear them, nagging as much as possible. and i'm missing john's show with his new band new dawn who is playing right down the plaza. but too bad adam is my hero. (plus dom and ryan and sometimes ian and david bowie or jeebus!! [jeebus is most definately my hero too!!!!] )

brandy broke up with brad. mcyds is crap. joe's hair is long. ryan sheckler beats matthew's ass. and its raining men. laura and me had popsicles in the snow today. in the five frickin' inches of snow!!!!! i love snow:)

and elijah's new name is guy le douche!!

good evening morning. well its sort of morning. for me anyway. i haven't written in a mucho long arse time, so i thought i'd fill everyone in. did i tell you about gravity games?? i doubt it lol i'm too lazy. so anyway, i went to the gravity games in cleveland last weekend. well, friday and saturday which means i missed travis pastrana lose his first fmx ever. very disappointing. but on the flip side, i saw the most amazing skateboarder on saturday - ryan sheckler. he's insanely talented and kicked everyone's ass on saturday to win $23,000. he had the only score above 90 (second place finisher had a 90.0) and the only skater with not just one flawless run, but three flawless runs. and did i mention he's only 13?? yeah, a 13 year old kicked the asses of the best skaters in the world. he's awesome. we also saw yellowcard on friday which we were up front for and the anthem on saturday - we were in the back but it still rawked. plus lots of free stuff which is always a plus. and i got my shirt signed by greg lutzka. found a sticker signed by tosh townsend too!!! what else what else?? a whole lot of nothing. maggie ruined her little party for brandy b/c...well let's not even go there. and me laura john and maybe erin? i think are going to see saves the day and taking back sunday on wednesday. sunday on wednesday that sounds funny lol. anyway im off to get naked and take a shower!! later kiddies

i was thinking about christmas today. i guess its kind of cliche, but christmas is the best holiday of the year. i'm not one for snow, its too cold if you ask me, but its beautiful at christmas time and its disappointing when theres no white christmas. third grade was the best time of my life. carefree and fun, everything was cheerful. and remember christmases when you were young?? i would always go to bed early christmas eve so christmas would hurry up and get there (even though now that i'm older, i realize the buildup is just as much fun) not realizing that i'd wake up too early for it to be light out. so i'd lay there for hours tossing and turning, hearing imaginary sounds that the only way i could possibly explain was santa. around 4am, i'd wake up and never fall back asleep. i'd wait there, my mind wandering through the joys of christmas and what seemed like forever was only five minutes. so i'd roll back over and wait. i always thought i'd wait until it was light, but sometime around 530am, i'd jump out of bed and wake my father. i'd drag him into the living room where presents would be mounded atop the couch and spread across the floor, overflowing out from underneath the tree. have you ever noticed how many presents you get when your young? not until your older and the presents have whittled away do you really appreciate it. santa's getting cheap. i distinctly remember this year that santa only got me one present. my father got me several. but even when i was younger and santa's presents were abundant (that is, when he wasn't being cheap), my father always seemed to buy me more. i think my daddy wants to outdo santa. that's right, leave it to my father to feel it neccessary to outdo his alter ego.

chasing ghosts

dashboard confessionals=sweeeet. yay today was the concert. went with brandy and laura. sarah was there in spirit - we even called her:) but anyway. let me explain.

we loaded up on food at sheetz before we left but not before i got the chance to cuss out some fair goers who were inconsiderate and in my fucking way. so i got to lauras and we got a spoon for the ice cream. we actually drove down the street to route 7 with brandy feeding us choco chip cookie dough ice cream. dude, this one guy looked over and i think he just about died:D cause we're sexy like that.

so we got on the turnpike - go us. laura made some signs about calling us 'n' honk if youre going to dashboard:) nobody did. but anyway. pa is totally fucked up cause the turnpike we payed a dollar cause they have this ez pass thing now. even though it was way more difficult. but we had the exit that didn't hafta pay a toll.

so anyway pittsburgh is mad confusing and i got off the wrong exit and did you know aaa isn't like international?? we called the ohio one and they told us to call the pennsylvania one for directions. we went in circles for so long and we were like he looks like he'd go to a dashboard concert! and we saw this chinese guy we asked for directions then we saw another chinese guy and laura's like didn't we just ask him for directions? they all look alike damnit. j/p.

anyway lets skip ahead - we finally arrive after a bajillion 1 way streets 'n' shit. we paid $7 to park when we could have parked free across the street. oh well. we walk up and get in line and some guy that tried to buy tickets from us sells the girls behind us a ticket. scalpers!!!! anyway. there was like one gate so we waited forever it sucked. when we got in, the 1st band had already played and brand new was playing. they're alright. we got our way to the floor thanks to laura and brandy just kind of dragged me lol.

then the next band - mxpx, who i somehow totally got confused with p5k. wtf?!?!? anyway they rawked my undies lol. it was a good time to just jump around. then dashboard. ahhhh. we forgot our lighters but it didnt matter because it was so fucking amazing!!!! chris had this like cool mohawk in his hair it looked cool and the crowd sang along to like all the songs. i got kicked. then i kicked the kid behind me. who i was laying on at one point standing up and the kid in front of me was sort of laying on me so i stopped standing really and i was just wedged in between them lol good times. umm hands down was the last song they played - the encore. we called sarah and let her listen to the last 2 songs and him talking. aw sarah was there in spirit, like i said:)

so we went to the car and chilled there for a while with the windows down a bit, called parents, ate our chips, drank melted slushies and water, and listened to the dashboard cd. awww. then some guy came to our window asking for jumper cables so we waited for them to give them back because i really would have beat them if they stole them. but like laura put it, they're emo kids they won't steal! hehe.

a bunch of people waited outsidebrand new's bus which, by the way, we totally stood by:) and saw them. but they're not that great lol anyway. we made it home way better than we did getting there. didn't speed so much either! umm. got home and took brandy home so her mum didn't flip a bitch. and then me and laura went to perkins. where i ate penne pasta. and she had homefries. and when i was sick of my pasta i screamed i dont want any more fuckin' potatos!! i'm a smart one:D

that's about it. i hafta go comment in laura's blurty now before she eats my soul beats me up. good nite, kiddies.

tomorrow's the dashboard confessional concert with brandy and laura. yay!! so excited. it's up in pittsburgh and i'm driving there. we are so gonna get there and not get lost. like me and sheena got everyone lost on the way to the daniel tosh thing. daniel tosh is the man:) but anyway, we need cameras and lighters for all the sad songs. which is all of them. chris is hot:) right laura?
um the fair is starting to piss me off//scare me. let me explain. i get to the road i use to get home and its like totally backed all the way up to the bridge. assholes. and the cops put out orange cones because we're too stupid to understand the concept of YELLOW LINES.
omg. lol. and people just walking around in the middle of the road and carnies are so gross. not to mention i was walking towards the grandstand where cass works and i felt someone choke me and whisper in my ear "dont move or i'll kill you". i was scared but i knew them and it wasn't cass it was jon. asshole.
i'm sorry i'm not more interesting tonight.
for a good time, draw on your foot while its asleep:) or tickle your hands. goodnight-e!
