Going to a concert and going to go dancing should not make me this sore afterward. I've gotten incredibly lazy with the summer heat, but maybe now that the weather's finally becoming bearable, Victoria and I will start playing racquetball and going for walks again. I also want to steal Asia's idea of Tae-Bo. My mom used to have a boot-leg tape of it when back in the era of VHS. It was fun kicking and punching and feeling like a badass, but before I knew it, it was disappeared. :(
Not only are my muscley parts sore, my left arm is in constant remembrance of the 5 second break I took on the way from Firestone to I-Bar after the Circa Survive show. Why? you ask? Because there was an ant bed there filled with very angry ants who decided to attack my arm with full force. So now the top of my forearm looks likes some teenage boy's pimply face. Wee! Now it's a constant battle not to scratch or just bother it in general.
And that's not it either! After the headlining band came on, we made our way downstairs to the front of the stage and in the general pushy-shovey happy good times my left plug got knocked out. I had been having trouble with it previously (it didn't want to stretch and let me know, so I went back down, then the day prior to the show it did and we were both happy) and after it got knocked out I stuck the right plug in the ear to stop it from shrinking back down. Yeah, the combination of the two actions have caused it to be super pissed and swollen now. And also not liking the 6 gauge anymore. So it's back to the 8 gauge for the 3rd time. I'll stay here for a while (a month maybe) as much as it saddens me. I think the idea of being uneven annoys me more than anything (OCD anyone??)
I know it's sounds like I'm complaining about Friday a lot, but I actually had a very good time. We had originally went to see Michael Ian Black perform, but his show was sold out by the time we got there. We were a lot less disappointed than I'd imagined we'd be. Probably partly because we'd planned for it. The bartender upstairs at Firestone said he thought of us when he went to the liquor store. The show was good. There was lots of confetti and inflated balloons being bounced around. It's amazing that they got their trendy scene fans to participate like that. :) I-Bar was FUN. Fun like it used to be. We saw Wanda and Christina, the Spaniards, and hung out/danced with them. I'm glad Wanda decided to stop cutting her hair every 2 seconds, it looks good. And Christina was dressed like a nut case as usual, but is still cool as hell. The pizza people are fun.
Oh yeah, aaand I don't get how Charles thinks Portugal. The Man and Circa Survive sound alike. Let alone that Circa "does it better." I have stopped trying to argue because logic and reality have no place wherever Charles lives. Lucky him.
