so inauguration was fucking insane. a few highlights: we marched in the anarchist march which started at 1230 and ended in violence from nefac protestors and police. apparently there was some very funny violence involving police falling on their faces (HA FUCKIN PIGS!). there was also a lot of night stick beating on friends of mine. there was pepper spray and some good buddies of mine got hit and some of them took it wel and others didn't. later on we were very close to the inauguration march (3 blocks away) and some barricades got lifted and my real good friend premo got sprayed int he face and i was backing away and being a coward while she was taking the pain. i am so ashamed of myself. i sat by her for over an hour before she recovered holding her and telling her it was ok. i felt so shitty because i should've been laying there by her. anyway eventually she was ok and we went to get food and no food was there at logan circle (DC). then we went to this anti-flag show thing that had a march after it. we decided that since we hate antiflag and the other bands playing weren't worth paying for we just got AMAZING general tso's tofu and some 40's and chilled in this alley type place drinking until the post-show march. when it started i was so skeptical and thought it was gonna be lame but we (jon proudfoot and I) grouped up with our friends mallory and whitney and we marched. citibank, kfc, burger king, and metro police depo got they windows smashed with bricks and spray painted up. after the march were mass arrests blocking off streets and alleyways but we managed to escape to a friend's house. we ate boca burgers and slept then we went home today.
whole foods was having this amazing giveaway today and we managed to find 2 whole baskets full of food and we feasted like mad and it ruled. we have been giving out food to people all day. we filled our friends' kitchen full of food. i also learned a new song on guitar even though i haven't gotten much practice on it. i got to listen to some awesome people play music tonight (anna roland, evan greer, mark gunnery). we drank 40's tonight and some tecate and yeah here i am! i am talking to someone i used to totaly be in love with and i actually said i had a crush on her! how bout that. she is helping me with some romance tips (hopefully helping!).
