I just realized I haven't posted since before the ice storm. And that was weeks ago. That shit was crazy though. Ice piling up on trees till they just fell, branches raining from the sky and taking down powerlines everywhere you looked. We lost our power around 11pm friday night, and didn't get it back till late monday afternoon. About 90% of Springfield lost power... a lot of people I know *still* don't have power. One of our neighbors is still running on a generator. It's a good thing we have a gas fireplace and gas water heater or that could have been the worst weekend in history. But we just drank and smoked and acted like retards around the fire, with no entertainment at all except the police scanner. I took some crazy photos just around our house, and Louis videotaped a transformer exploding and igniting trees and stuff.
So, this is sad. I missed the W13 concert. I seriously thought it would be cancelled, because, y'know, it was the apocalypse and all. But no... apparently they had power at Remington's and they were rockin' out. Bri got a ride out there with some friends of hers. She was begging these guys (and reportedly, at one point, screaming at them) to come pick me up, since I had no way of even knowing she was in town, but they wouldn't do it. Said they didn't have the gas money and apparently they were in a hurry to get there so they could get cheaper tickets? Wankers. So I sat around being bored at my house wishing I was at a concert with her... when I could have easily been there, had I known. It just makes me so sad. She got an autographed poster for me, which was awesome of her.
As for my trouble with the law... it's all good now. Let's just say I beat the system... a little. Went to court this morning and came out unscathed, paid nothing but a $29.50 court cost.
BTW, just remembered this. Y'know... there's no place on Earth that's more discomfortingly quiet and awkward than a municipal courtroom before things get going. I found it to be a relief when this one guy's cell phone started BLARING the sweet sounds of nothing other than an over-dramatic, moaning, screaming female orgasm. And it didn't stop going. It played clear to the end. That was fucking hilarious.
I think the judge was amused by my hickeys. Heh. ;P
And now... massive photo dump. Be warned.
