Rantings from the bonfire
Pics from Museum Crawl, Those Who Munch, Midnight 7/14, Midnight 7/21, Midnight 7/28, Hellboy and The Dark Knight movie gatherings.. and my Zune
Ok very funny World.. now bring back the nasty drama people so everything makes sense again..
I had a long talk with Danny, Nate, Scott and Stacia, and pastor Edward Hunt, oh and prosector for fun.. and it's a wait-and-see basis on my Monday night experiences. The cupcakes were nice though but the idea of high amounts of sugar and water is.. dumb.. it's like the Christian equivalent of vodka and red bull: what's the point?
So at any rate:
TORSDAG:
Once again, no Exposure, though I did hear there wasn't any to go to that night due to some snafu drama with the venue, which I also hear was resolved the next day. I would contact the Exposure crew to get more info of course if you're a patron or an interesting future patron: the music isn't bad and they had SANCTUM play there!!!
FREDAG:
I had to go to work ridiculously early (evil evil evil), but I got to leave early which is always a good thing.. early enough to go to the bank in Ballston (saw dmindock jogging down the street) to get the money for rent, along with getting a haircut and hanging with some local Columbia Heights friends (that place has so gentrified!)..
LÖRDAG:
Oh crap I just remembered that last Sunday dmcindc, fortyhumans, Edward and carolynn_dc and I went out to an Irish pub and had a great time.. oops..
I got up ahhhh so nice and late.. after coughing up my lung, my neighbor's lungs, the floor's lungs, perhaps your lungs.. yes, it's time for The Summer Cold.. and to conquer it with much echinacea and Vitamin C..
My most entertaining Metro experience was the guy who looked at me, eyes going up and down, up then down, up then down.. yes, paint a black cross on your face along with Egyptian style eye makeup and watch people avoid making fun of you (the claw ring probably helped too)..
But there are times when I know that my life is not my own and that I have to obey a higher voice that when I think I need to do Plan A, I am meant to do Plan Å instead..
I was on my way to dcmidnight for my usual expectation of funness when a voice (not an audible one, I'm not THAT gawth!) told me to go instead to spellbound_dc, and so I did.. I saw a lot of people there that night including sameoldtune, darkness664, Peter, Kylla, Emily, Pretty Nick and his t-shirt business partner the "Elvis Clone", shadow27 and pmhrh, Marti escorting gothicdoll1 and swandust (among the Truly Beautiful People!), Eric, vicar, ego_likeness, and a real surprise: Shaun, with his Army bud Richard.. and more on that later..
I stayed for a while and then left to go to dcmidnight in time to hear a bit of Cassandra Syndrome (they're ok but true gothic metal bands like Epica, Within Temptation and Sirenia would blow them offstage far too easily), and also saw dmcindc, renondc, carolynn_dc, xspookykittyx, dharmata101 and valdyr, Leo, Andy and Diane, dreammuse distracting us with Sin City, Bonnie and her friend LaTisha, Michael the shirtless dancer, in_remission with the really cool steampunk monocle, slyx, kit257, coffinwolf, Misha, JD, April Dawn, Kitty who didn't get to steal my hat since I didn't have one (ha HA!), Bryan, cheetahdave and myruiner, tuath13, and lots and lots more (most crowded I've ever seen dcmidnight), and yes it had CAKE (that was for you dmcindc) and a rather interesting article in the City Paper..
As I left I was about to go back to spellbound_dc until I realized I forgot my new t-shirt I bought (I will have it on Monday night, because I must wear THAT to church! [evil grin]), and so I decided to get it and then go home instead, which I did (after a super-silly dance to a super-silly song), went to Farragut West, and again, I run into Shaun and Richard.. they talk me into hanging out with them for their infamous rooftop philosophy sessions.. and that was one of the most powerful moments I've had in the scene!!!
I hung out with the 2 of them and their two Army buddies, Brandon and Brett.. I wound up having a very in-depth discussion with Brett about.. (contact me if you honestly want to know, for Danny, Nate, cerberus777, etc.) and then we all rode in the van driven by Brandon to Barnside Diner in Lincolnia for one of the weirdest and wildest times I've had in a while (military people.. puh! hehe) and then went home around 7AM.. yes!!!
SÖNDAG:
I finally got up around 2PM, got dressed and headed out to The Asylum for some Tribal Cafe time, this after killing time at.. that wretched coffee place.. The Römka dance troupe invited Naima from Baltimore and a group called Hypnosis from Philadelphia.. very awesome dancing.. but where was everybody? The scene was not out tonight! Saaaad... I did see Donnie and djmissguided who was spinning, and then was very surprised when Brandon, the "country farm bumpkin" of the Army buddy group, showed up even when the rest of them "chickened out".. hehe
And that was it. I blogged and uploaded a ton of pics.. uh.. now..
