the party tonight wasnt all that fun. i was under the impression that a few people would be there, and a few of them would be drinking. we get there, and the apartment is packed. i get uncomfortable in a] crowded areas, and b] places with drunk people. so i started having a panic attack. so i made nick play mariocart with me so i wouldnt be face to face with a roomfull of tipsy people [many of whom i didnt know]. then i gave up at that because i started getting dizzy and sat in the chair in the corner and looked out the window//played snood on my phone. then tim came up to me and said he was leaving because he has work in the morning, and i jumped on the chance to get out. i started hyperventalating in the hallway. but i was fine once i got outside and walked around a little. i saw one of my RAs there. i hope she wasnt holding back from partying or whatever just because i was there... ya know? i felt bad. like i was hindering her evening. sighs.
anyways. me, tim, emily and katie came back. went to mcdonalds and tim ate chicken nuggets. went to dunkin donuts and i got hot chocolate. hot chocolate makes me happy.
then i get back and christina IMs me, and asks if i knew anyone who went to the TMDS show tonight. i didnt go since i stayed here this weekend. so i said no, then she asked if anyone from the modern day saint was online... and joe and dan were, but both away and idle. then she directs me to the sixfinger board, where i read this:
"is anyone aware of dans condition? ...for those of you not aware, at the show at granby high tonight, he had a really near death experience. while on stage, he passed out, stopped breathing, and his heart stopped as well. when the ambulance arrived they cut his shirt and he had cpr done on him for a loooong time. he left in "stabilized" condition, but im really worried about him. if anyone knows anything, please post."
so ummm, for those of you who dont know him, dan's this kid i dated for a while, and we remained very close friends afterwards. he's like my brother.my big, goofy brother. so i'm flipping out. i tried calling him, not really expecting him to answer, and to no surprise, he didnt. then i tried calling joe urban... yet again, no answer. i really hope dan's okay. asdiofhasdufna;d
i dont know what to do.
;KSAJDF;OIH;oihas;odifhs;odifha'osidhfoiasdfm <-- that just about sums up the speed of the thoughts racing through my head.
******EDIT*******
i just talked to joe urban.
dan's in the hospital, and everything said by mike is true... dan passed out and his heart stopped.
they cleared the kids out of there, and the paramedics spent a hell of a long time trying to revive him.
but they did.
and he's "stable", but sedated. they're running tests on him.
i guess before the show, dan felt kind of sick, and was stressed about a lot of things, so that probably has a lot to do with it.
i hear he wasnt drinking [tonight, at least] so they ruled that out i guess.
joe's calling me back in the morning, so i'll update you guys then.
but as of now, dan's okay and will be okay.
