Wroih :(
Its not that I feel homesick, exactly. But I feel.. odd. Kind of empty. I did have SUCH an amazing time this weekend. It took me 2 days to write my whole journal. Its entirely too long to post here, so I'll just link it here from the message board at the end of this post.
The absolute best part of the whole trip was meeting Jen. But the whole time was just so amazing. I miss everyone so much, but at least most of them I will still be able to see at other fan meets. Like the Vegas fan meet coming up in just a few weeks. But whats bumming me out the most is how much I miss the Briar, and certain people like Martin, John Spiegel, Matt Shallenwhateverit is, and even Bryce. I honestly think we probably spent as much time at the Briar as we did at the Hawthorne. Actually.. hmm.. *calculates* I think we probably were at the Briar a total of something like 16-18 hours over the span of 3 days. LOL. And we totally had full run of the place for a long time on Saturday.. We got the whole backstage tours of everything from the laundry room to the band loft. And when we weren't touring, we were randomly hanging out onstage by the paint drums or behind the shadow drumming screen, props area, etc. And as if we didn't see enough of the blue men and band at the actual theatre, it seemed like everytime I'd turn around, one would be randomly walking down the street or we'd see them in line at the pita place next door, etc. So yeah, I really miss those guys a lot. Martin, more than anyone else.
I think some of the absolute best parts of the weekend were:
Meeting Jen.
Meeting some of the others I've been talking too so much lately- Jay and Amy, Jenny and Nicole, etc.
Seeing Canoli and Limey get engaged at the fan meet show.
Me and Tom Ray getting in trouble by Martin for making too much noise- haha!
The wretching twinkie girl
Andrew and Matt picking on me
Ushering!
Playing with the paper with Matt during KLF
Laughing, laughing and more laughing
The Bug Incident
Finally making a connection with the blue man character, and seeing him like everyone else does, rather than some scary blue clown.
Sooo many wonderful memories. It hurt so bad to leave. Luckily I have the entire week off to get back in the right frame of mind. But anyway, here are the links to the journals and the pictures.
