Thursday: Errands to run before leaving. Got my hair cut...the guy was really cool and we chatted about psychology and various odd things....he straightened my hair and cut it dry...interesting...and then when he was done, he told me how much it cost and it was $10 more than I thought and $10 more than I had on me. Doh. I ran to the bank and got money and paid him back. Not going to him again, though. Too pricey. -Colleen and her friend, Laurel, and I drove up to the Oakland airport. Said goodbye to them and my car. -Got to Arizona and found Chris at the airport. -Went to the Lucky Dragon and saw a drunk white guy rapping about peanut butter. -Met Andy and Tess. -Stayed up til 5am chatting and listening to Chris play geeetar and stuff. -Sleep.
Friday: Slept in late [or attempted to kind of unsuccessfully]. -Chris went to a meeting and I poked around his computer some and read some of my book. -Talked to Andy for awhile before Chris got back. -Dinner with Andy, Tess, and Chris @ the Plaid Eatery. -Pinback show!! Rueben's Accomplice opened and impressed me quite a lot. They looked more like what I thought Pinback would look like than Pinback did, heh. That other "ensemble" band played next and sucked hard. They had two guitars, a keyboard, a cello, a xylophone, and a bass clarinet. Coulda been cool. They played four "songs" and were up there for much closer to an hour than I would have liked. Pinback kicked ass though! Really good. I need more stuff by them. -Left there with eyes burning from people smoking inside and went to the party Kristen was having at her house. It seemed to clear out just as we got there. -Met some friends-de-Chris and watched them be drunk for awhile. All his friends are really nice. So tired. -Went back to the dorms and started watching The Red Violin, but turned it off when we all started falling asleep. -Sleep.
Saturday: Woke up to Tristan calling to say the radio station he works for had a booth or something set up down on Mill Ave and that we should come get free cds and stuff. -Walked down there but couldn't find it and so just wandered around looking in bookstores and stuff instead. -Saw various parts of ASU. Exact opposite of UCSC. Flat, little vegetation, urban, etc. -Food at Pita Jungle. -CDs at Stinkweeds [Braid The Age of Octeen mmmm]. -Finished The Red Violin. -Went over to Matt's place to watch Akira. Drunk people are funny. I still have no idea what was reeeally going on in that movie. -Sleep.
Sunday: Woke up and showered and left for Byline band practice. -Met Tristan, Jared, and Myc, but not Kellen. -Watched them "practice" hehe. I was amused anyway. Cool guys. -Hung around there watching Iron Chef and the beginning of the Academy Awards and were fed by Tristan's mom. Yay! -Went back to the dorms. -Watched ,d the short film [correct title?]. Funny, ha. -Stayed up til around 4am....I suck at guitar...digital cameras are fun...being tickled sucks...I'm all bruised, dammit...you're right, I know and I agree but just wish I didn't have to...I should have brought my own sandals...gar...froofy fro hair is a go. -Zzzzzzzsleep.
Monday: 6:15am alarm goes off. -Airport bound by 7am. -Waited in the long long security check line. -Goodbye Chris. :( -Uneventful plane ride home. So tired. So hungry. -Waited for luggage and for Erin....picked up one and was picked up by the other...got home around...12:30pm [?] "Cali" time. -Trip complete.
Picture mania time. Huzzah! ( those people I just talked about )
