Hey kids, I'm really tired and lazy, as the subject line reads, so it's taken me a while to update, but don't worry...good things ahead. As for the question, well,ask yourself a question and answer it. And feel free to answer someone else's question. Yeah

School f*ckin' sucks. It's so boring and worthless.....WORTHLESS. Well, I know it's not worthless, but you know, frustration...it's a b*itch. Anywho, school is school and I go.

COnfirmation classes are getting a lot better, my personal relationship with God is good, and I still need to go to Confession.

NHI is getting on my nerves....no lie. Some adults act worse than kids and don't know what the hell they're doing. At this rate, it's gonna get run into the ground and I'm gonna quit. So, we'll see how it works out.

On to the good stuff....

As of recently, me and chris have been hanging out alot. Usually Vero and/or (his sister/my awesome friend) Erika hang out with us, but either way, me and him hang out a lot. Well, as most of you may have known, me and Chris decided to go crazy and went to Tempe, AZ to see Matchbook Romance, Fall Out Boy, and Taking Back Sunday. UN.....f*ckin'....believable!!! It was great. Lucky for you, I'll explain everything....EVERYTHING!!!

Well, me and Chris took a plane to Phoenix and got in at around 1:40pm. We decide to get our tickets first before going to Julian's dorm, so we get a taxi. Lucky for us, we get some man who knew no english and did not know his way around the city. WHAT THE HELL KIND OF TAXI DRIVER IS THAT?!

So this crazy man drives us around downtown Tempe with no air conditioner, all the while, he's running red lights...and not just oh, barely missed yellow...I mean this bastard was passing red lights that had just turned red or were about to turn green. Finally he just kinda gives up and drops us off. So we get off, and ask someone where the venue is, and this guy says "way down there"....and points down the road. We decide to walk it....well this bastard of a place is about a mile and a half down from where the psycho taxi driver dropped us off...mean walk. So we finally get there only to be told that all will call tickets aren't available for another 3 and a half hours. So we're there, don't have a ride, are tired from the walk, hungry, and don't have tickets. Horrible moods. Then we see that the buses for the bands and stuff are in the back. So we head over there, but security makes us leave. Then we see members of the opening band getting there stuff out, so we went to talk to them. They were really cool guys, and we ended up talking to them while they moved their stuff right behind the building. So then security thought we were with the band...they're called The Sleeping by the way. So we keep talking to them, and then members of the other bands start walking by and so we get to meet them, take pictures, and talk to some really cool guys. We ended up meeting and taking pictures with Pete and Patrick from Fall Out Boy, Erin from Matchbook Romance, and Adam and Fred from Taking Back Sunday. We saw all the other guys passing by, but we only got pictures with these guys. Well, after talking to sean(the merch guy for The Sleeping) for a while, we tried to go backstage, but some huge black man prevented that from happening, so we grabbed our tickets and headed into the show. It was amazing. The Sleeping was actually pretty good. After they played, Matchbook Romance got on stage and they were great. Pete from Fall out boy even came out and sang a song with them....good stuff. Fall out boy was next and was amazing. THey were so energetic...flipping around, doing spinning kicks, jumping off of bass amps....great stuff. It was great to see Fred from TBS join them for "Grand theft autumn" too. They were great. Lastly, Taking back sunday played, and they were just awesome. THey played almost every song off of their new cd and a good number of songs off their old one. THe encore was great...they played the acoustic song (An American Classic) from their new cd and "cute with out the e". All in all...great show.

Aside from that, me and chris had a great time at ASU. We stayed with our friend julian, and he really showed us a good time in the short amount of time we had. The people there were really nice and if it weren't for the God-awful hot weather, I'd transfer there. Nice people....good shows....bad cab drivers. You really can't complain.

Well, that was our trip. It was great. Next up is Austin this weekend for the NHI nationals debate that our kids are competing in. We wish the kids good luck, but we're really looking forward to the trip itself. But I'll let you know how it goes.

Oh yeah...before the show this past week, there was my friend Ale's quince last weekend. It was a lot of fun. She looked beautiful and it was nice to see some old friends again. Her dad made it a really good night for me and Chris. Anyways...thanks ale.

Well, I think that maybe it for that.

-In the movie scene...go check out The Grudge. I thought it was gonna suck, but it was pretty damn scary. I jumped alot and made an ass out of myself plenty of times in the theatre. Go watch it guys...well worth it.

-On the music scene, if you don't already have them, go get "Take this to your grave" by fall out boy, Either cd from taking back sunday , and "Stories and Alibis" by matchbook romance..they're good. Aside from that, go get the self-titled cd from I Can Make A Mess Like Nobody's Business. I know...long name huh? ANywho, it's the side project from the lead singer of the Early November, Ace Enders, and it's amazing. It's on Drive-thru records, and it was produced by Ace Enders himself and Chris Badami. It's mellow acoustic folk stuff, but it's really good. It comes out tomorrow and should be at Best Buy. I pre-ordered the album, got it on Saturday, and listened to it Sunday and today, so I'm not just talking out of my ass. It's good. Get it.

Well, I believe that's it. I hope you enjoyed hearing all this stuff. Me and Chris have pictures if you want to see em. Other than that...remember to.......
