I went to Edgefest last Sunday. "Upside", "Driven", "Gutwrench", "Vastu", "Down For Five", "Bag Eyes", "Johnny Reliable", "Curb Check",
"DDS" were all the locals and the biggers were.... "Fanzine", "TRB", "Blue October", "Revis", "Finger Eleven", "Smile Empty Soul", "Cold", "Mudvayne", "Evanescence"

It was really cool. I'm not normally into this music but the experience was sweet. During "Smile Empty Soul" my friend, Joe, kinda like passed out on my sholder, so after I realized, I got him out of the pit. So we hung out til he was back to his senses. After that we went back into the pit during "Cold." Joe said that he 'wasn't feeling too well' so I turned to start leaving."Excuse me" I said And this BIG (200lbs+) Indian (Mexican or something) women said (Sorry I'm going to swear... Oh no) "Get out of the way, we have to let this pussy out, he can't fucking handle it" And I, being the smart ass which I am, said in a REAL none sarcastic, polite way "You don't have to say it like that." And she replied, "What the fuck did you just say? I'll fucking say what I want." So I retorted, like an idiot, "You don't have to, fucking, say it like that."

Now this in about the time in which I'm starting to notice behind her, with eyes bearing down upon me, this Indian (Mexican) male, larger then her. But.... she punched me with her left hand, right above my left eye. Now, of coarse I'm PO'd now. So I quickly "Bitch you punched me." Surprsed. (It didn't hurt it just felt like a soft down pillow or something) So I start thinking, I can be a bigger idiot and 1) hit her back (Knowing my 142lb butt would soon be stomped by her, her male gorilla, and maybe the pit around me)... or... 2) Run away like a cowrd right there (Damn would have been a better choice I'm sure)... or... 3) Walk away, while eyeing them deeply.

I ended up going with number 3, but before I could start moving I notice another left hand hit my left eye (remember in the pit people are so close together, I can't get my hands up quick enough). Again it didn't hurt or anything, but I'm standing there pretty surprised and very angry. I'm starting to walk away when I see both of their eyes open WIDE, and get full of fear. And my cocky little butt is thinking, "I'm freaking intimadating. She must think those hurt." But I leave and everyone in the pit while I leave is like "YEAH!!!" "Dude!!!" So I start to think, "Is it swollen?" and I touch my eyebrow and then look at my hand and its COVERED in blood. Apparently my face, neck, shirt are all covered in blood... when I didn't notice. But like I said it didn't hurt. People are telling me to go to First Aid, so I call my friend Lauren, whos dad was working there, and had her come show me where it was at. I told her what happened.

At the first aid tent, they asked what happened and I told the guy, that a pimple busted. They laughed, said I need stiches and started cleaning it up. Lauren told the guy what really happened, and he said, "I can't help you if you got beat up by a girl." So I told him, "I'm sure she was carrying extra equipment, if you catch my drift" So they finished cleaning it, and my hand and put 3 butterfly stiches on it. It was cool. I got free Aquafina the rest of the day!!

So...Anyways... Today I was supposed to go to the "Day in the Country" but it was canceled due to excessive rain... GrRRR!!!!!

Also all week I've had about a 101-102 temp since Edgefest, still feel like crap. But I NEED WORK. So I hope my little event can at least bring a smile to someones face.

Peace...¥
