Yestersay was amazing! So I woke up and headed into the Boston house early and then we all went on our way to Somerville. Wimpy broke down at the Mattapan, but eventually Eric was able to keep her from over heating too much and she arrived. When we got to the theatre I got to finally meet Pete and then we headed downstairs for a lunch with the boys (I finally got to meet Brad too). It was pretty great to see them all together and to sit and just chat it up with them and hear them talk and laugh about old times. They eventually had to go meet with the press and we had a meeting. It was pretty intense, our last meeting...we read the article in the Globe, that was awesome, and discussed how the weekend was to go. Then we set up the lobby of the Somerville and it looks great. After a while Ashlee and I got to leave and go home to HP to get ready, we got stuck in lots of traffic, but eventually got home and got pretty. The drive back was alright but finding a parking spot was really stressful. After I parked I headed in and met up with the boys of Riverside. They were in the front row which was awesome. I took my seat with Ashlee Eric and Matty and then the boys walked in. Before the movie started the Elias trailer played. It was so exciting to see it on the big screen because I had watched the creation of that little 3 min video. I just sat there squeezing Ash's hand, I was so pumped! After that the movie started. I had seen it already, but it was so much better this time. The boys were in the aisle next to me, so lokking back at them and seeing their reactions during certain parts of the film was priceless. After it all Shana went up and said her thank yous and she had us interns stand up and aknowledged our hard work. The boys gave us a standing ovation. That was really moving and when the said their thankyous the looked right over at where Ash Eric Matty and I were sitting and thanked us. After that we headed over to the afterparty. It was lovely. We had some drinks and then headed back to the Theatre for the midnight screening. When the boys entered to announce it the crowd went WILD. When the got on stage they talked for awhile and then busted into the "my name is Chetro..." rap. It was pretty awesome. I watched the Elias trialer again and then I headed back to the party. When I was leaving I talked to Petey for a bit and he is gonna come to my show today and play a couple songs. He is pretty awesome. When I was saying bye to chad he told me "nice movie" I thought that was funny. Then we headed back to the theatre to close up and I got to meet the Barefoot and Parker house guys. Then I headed home. There were insane detours thru Boston and it took me an hour to go a 10 minute distance, but I made it home, got three hours of sleep and now I have a crazy day ahead of me!
