This is so cool. The states in red are the ones I've been to, the ones in green, obviously, are the ones I haven't. I need to road trip more.

Story of the Year was absolutely fantastic last night at Irving. Never been there before, and the place now has a good first impression upon me. I got about a roll and five pictures, we'll see later this week after I get paid.

This one band that opened for them, LetterKills...just check them out. They're not FANTASTIC, but they're good, and I liked them. From California. Why do all these guys come from California? Stupid boys. I asked their merch guy when they would be releasing a full length (they only have a three-track sampler) and he said probably summer, but keep checking the website. <>adds site to favorites<>

Also, SOTY announced they'd be at Warped this year. YAY! <>party<>

Great show, great people, saw Grace and caught up with her a bit. I swear, she gets more beautiful each time I see her, its just not fair. :-p :-* Love ya, Gracie.

The only bad part about the night was this one kid standing in front of me that refused to move for ANYTHING...and he didn't want to be there! Well, I'll be damned, asshole, leave then! Let me get a better view for pictures and you go on your merry way! Jeebus.

So yeah, I'm tired, worn out, everthing hurts, and I'm fuckin' cold. And I'm 'supposed' to be at the accouting office in...four minutes. I just don't feel like going today. But I will. And tomorrow, I'm DETERMINED to go extra early and stay all day, 'cause I don't have class until six, so...yeah. Nothing better to do than earn money, right?

So my plan for today is jump in the shower, get a few hours in at the office, then go to the OTHER job and be bored until we close. Then come home and...sleep? Sleep would be good. Assuming I'll actually fall asleep tonight. Last night, I got home around 1:30 and lay down and was like "...I'm supposed to sleep after a night like this?". So I was awake for a little while after that, but I finally fell asleep about an hour after that...and woke up to the sound of my neighbors. Ahhh, what fun, only five hours of sleep this time! <>applauds<>

I spent most of the morning catching up on lj because it just WOULDN'T load for me on Monday. It hated me, hardxcore. Not just hardcore, but hardxcore. I swear, nothing on lj's site would load for me, which lead to me going back three pages because of some people's tendencies to write multiple entries a day, and others that let through REALLY stupid, meaningless posts in certain groups that are supposed to be well-moderated...but I digress.

This is more of an entry than I expected to write, but yeah...it's been written. Not cutting. I deserve my own little slice of 'revenge', so to speak.

I'm off.

p.s. - Note my music. I listened to all three songs during the course of this entry. And it amuses me how different they are from each other, so I had to point it out. <>chuckle<>

"Is there an open window anywhere?" - Vicki
- "I can't escape from this song." - me
"What song?" - guy at pet store
"This song, Domenic the Donkey." - me
"It's so old too, but it's one of those songs that comes on every three songs." - guy
"Its everyone's favorite Christmas song!" - me
"Maybe that's what I should get next year, a donkey!" - guy
- last minute shopping at KMart with REALLY nice cashiers.
- Manheim Steamroller Christmas album. :-D
- finally finding the present/package you're looking for
- Christmas cards with cute little baby pictures on the front
- Mommy's silly Christmas hat
- watching The American President

- The fact that I can't take my mother and my sister anywhere, but do anyway.
- The word 'magic'.
- Beautiful choir hymns.


If I think of anymore, I'll post them. But as of right now, I wish everyone a Merry Christmas. (and for those of you that are Jewish, a Happy Hannukah. :-) )

Straylight Run vocalist Michelle Nolan died at 1:17 a.m. today as a result of injuries sustained when her Jetta was hit by a Ford F-150 pick up on the Long Island expressway. Nolan, whose brother played guitar in the band and was formerly of `Taking Back Sunday', was in the car with an unidentified male who has sustained a broken leg and collar bone injury. John Nolan is listed in critical condition.

I'm honestly not believing this, I need to go do some research. Like, now.

EDIT: from absolutepunk.net - If you heard the horrible rumors earlier today concerning Straylight Run, well, don't believe them. Shaun recently released a statement concerning these, what I think, are very sick and disgusting rumors...

"Hey everbody! Just read that post about Michelle being dead and it really freaked me out. There is no need to worry, everbody in Straylight is happy healthy, and most importantly alive!!!! I actually just got home from practice where we were working out some hot new jams! It really pisses me off that someone would make something like that up though. I joke about just about everything, but saying that someone is dead just crosses the line. I'm really glad most of you were able to figure out it was a hoax so quickly. In other news, we're really psyched meet up with Coheed on Wednesday. It will definitly be a rockin good time. I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving, and has a safe and fun holiday season. You guys F'N RULE!! See you soon," - Shaun


thank effin' God.

In this entry I mentioned the shows I wanted to see this month. Didn't go see Three on a Match at Harry's because...I was sick. And I'm HOPING I'll be able to go see Runaway Orange and SHF tonight, but the weather is so nasty, Mommy may steal my keys and try to "ground me" if I try to go. Which is ludicrous because she can't do that, she hasn't grounded me for a good six years...but this is nasty dude. Really nasty weather. I ain't liking this.

I really wanted to go tonight, too. I <3 Runaway Orange, and I've never been to the Cricket Club before, so I'd love to check it out before later this month with MSI and MCR...and I've never seen SHF before live, I'd like to know how they sound and all that. I don't want to miss this show. RAWR, FUCK YOU BAD WEATHER!!! rgendhg;rghklg^%$(^&!!

...yeah.

Saturday, 12/6 - Runaway Orange, Stars Hide Fire @ The Cricket Club, 6:30 pm.

Sunday, 12/14 - The Early November, Count The Stars, Hidden in Plainview @ Krome, 5 pm. (I miss Chris. :-( ) WHY DID YOU BREAK UP?!?!

Saturday, 12/20 - My Chemical Romance, Mindless Self-Indulgence @ The Cricket Club, 7pm.

Fridays, 12/26 - The Starting Line, Motion City Soundtrack, Boys Night Out @ Starland Ballroom, 7pm (this is a strict maybe. a probably not.)

Tuesday, 12/30 - The Used, Senses Fail @ Starland Ballroom, 7pm - have tickets



EDIT: I click post and excessdb.com refreshes: the show is postponed. Well, at least I won't be kicking myself later for not going, it'll be on again sometime soon. Right? <>crosses fingers<>

[ music | IMH: "There's No 'I' in Team" - Taking Back Sunday ]

So I'm folding up my laundry to take to the laundromat, and I suddenly remember how Laurie said to me yesterday 'what do you want for Christmas?'.

So I've been thinking...if you want to know what I WANT go here.

If you want to know what I NEED...here ya go:
- draw string pj pants (preferrably either black, grey, or a REALLY fun print. I like 'em XL 'cause then I can move in them. :-D )
- a really comfy cotton sweater (I have no big comfy sweaters I can toss over my head if need be. this needs to be remedied.)
- a really comfy pullover sweatshirt/hoodie (either will do. something like...XL or XXL so I can wear it all the time and be warm)
- a plain black zip hoodie (why do I have none of these? this is depressing)
- socks (you all know I love socks. argyle and fun little ducky prints are more than acceptable. :-D )

that's what I need. aside from my own apartment, but yeah, I was trying to keep it low. ;-) so there you have it! what I NEED this holiday season. I wish you all luck. :-*


p.s - this is my new favorite icon. :-x

Tuesday, 12/2 - Three on a Match @ Harry's Road House, 10pm (this chick in ceramics is the lead singers girlfriend. promised to check them out.)

Saturday, 12/6 - Runaway Orange, Stars Hide Fire @ The Cricket Club, 6:30 pm.

Sunday, 12/14 - The Early November, Count The Stars, Hidden in Plainview @ Krome, 5 pm. (I miss Chris. :-( )

Saturday, 12/20 - My Chemical Romance, Mindless Self-Indulgence @ The Cricket Club, 7pm. (There is no way in hell anyone can get me to miss this show. So there. :-p)


For right now...that is all. Unless someone knows of another show I'm forgetting about? Let me know. :-)

I don't like car accidents and panicky calls at 11:30 at night. But everyone's ok and my older sister duties have gone into overdrive once more. <>nods once<>

I have everything and nothing to say.

Not like it matters, though, right?

I finally fixed my computer. The problem? Mommy tripped over the phone chord and disconnected my modem. It took me $30 and three hours on the phone with Tech Support to figure that out. Fucking waste of money.

Was going to go to work today, but I got an offer to skip work and babysit instead. So I'll be going to the ceramic's studio to get some shit done in a little bit, then go babysit.

I got asked out on a date? And I said yes? Huh?

I don't even know what's going on in my life. Maybe things would make sense if I shared it and was able to talk it out. But who'd bother to listen?

This has been a 'pity me' post on your friends list. Ignore it, like you would have regardless.

Default for lj friends pages is 30 entries. I made mine 40 entries because some people (not like the below mentioned, I swear) have a tendency to post multiple posts in a single day (sometimes a single hour).

I am shocked to come home from my show and find not a single entry from one obsessedwiththewestwing Carrie.

In shock, I say. You have no idea.



Listen to The Bank Robbers. Listen to Vendetta Red. Listen to The Ataris. And be amazed just how spectacular a show with all three acts can possibly be.

My horoscope for today Monday. After the day I've had, its quite appropriate.

Hello, everyone, I'm home. Warped in DetroitWHAT?! was fun and I didn't get burned. But I did get rained on. Fun times.
