Last week's events
I didn't get much sleep on that Monday.
I got in late, I tried to check my email, chat it up with some friends, someone in my bed, etc.
So as usual I got to sleep late.
I was tired, mad tired all day.
I don't even remember if I got a nap in that day or not.
It's all a blur.
Tuesday...I went to class, got some food, went to work at 1pm til 9 something that night.
It was a long freakin' day. I didn't get any sleep.
Wednesday...I don't even remember what I did. I know I went to class, got some food, might have taken a nap but I don't remember. Pretty bad isn't it?
Ok I remember Thursady. I went to classes, got back and packed up my stuff to head down to Knoxville, TN. I got my direction and cds. I tried to get money from the ATM, but I couldn't use it. Instead I had to get gas using my debit card and pray the amount of cash I had would get me through this trip. I got stuck in traffic close to my exit in Knoxville. I finally got there, parked right next to Elise and Linda. They came and met me, we walked down to the place. It was outside. The show was free I think but I gave a $3 donation. We got right up front(even though it wasn't hard to). We were the only ones there that knew the words to the KH songs. We asked Wooter for setlists but he didn't get them for us after the show. I got this extremely nasty watered down sprite that ended up having something unidentifiable in the bottom of the cup. Needless to say I threw it away. We hung out next to the guy's merch area. I danced, sang, embarrassed Linda, you know the usual. We talked to everyone, I got pictures with Garret(who called me "the infamous Lindsay), Greg, and Jon. It was a great time. We kinda got convinced to come to Champaign, IL the next night. Well we didn't know times and stuff but Garret was great enough to go ask Paris and come back and tell us. We missed Guster and went ahead and left to head to my dorm. We had many pitstops. We had to stop for gas and food, not to mention we dealt with a lot of traffic right after we got on the road. We FINALLY got to my dorm at like 1 something am. Got to sleep at 2 something.
I was planning on going to class the next morning. Instead I did my laundry, got and cashed my check from work, got a few pictures developed. I went back to my dorm, packed a small bag then we left for Illinois!!
The drive was long, but we had some good times(energy drinks ROCK!!)
After about 6 or so hours on the road we got to Champaign. Got a decent parking spot for free. Walked down to the venue, saw Greg first, walked around a corner, then came back and saw Mat and Wooter. Talked to Mat for a short period of time(he made fun of our accents but it was cool). We ended up talking with this guy who's actually from Chicago. When they finally let us in he hung out with us. He had some awesome pictures of KH and asked me if I would take pictures for him that night. Me being me, I said of course.
The first band, can't remember their name, was really interesting. I kinda liked their style but it was very different. Kill Hannah's set was kickass, they played Hyperactive and Love Sick. The guy I was taking pictures for was videotaping the show!! Afterwards I got one of Garret's drumsticks. It was awesome. He signed it and remembered my name. It was great!! Talked to Jon(I told him happy early birthday) and he hugged us. Talked to Dan very briefly, talked to Mat and got hugs. Linda and I talked to Greg. We both got shirts(I got the long sleeve jersey which I used later on). We had a great talk with him but then we had to go *sniffle*
I drove most of the way back. We stopped off and got food(and I put on my shirt cause I was freezing!!) and gas at a couple of points. I couldn't stay awake though. I fell asleep very very very briefly a couple of times when Linda and Elise were both asleep. I hit an already dead animal, that freaked me out. After like 3.5 hrs Elise had to take over cause I couldn't do it. We ended up sleeping in the parking lot of a motel in Elizabethtown(like 1.5 hrs from Bowling Green).
After all that, I got home, packed up stuff again and went home for Saturday and Sunday.
I got to see my newest kittens who are running around. So cute!!
I seriously slept for 14 hours that night. It was very nice.
And like I requested we got to go to the bestest brunch in the world the next morning. They have the best baked fish. MMM was so good.
After we got back from that I packed up my stuff, mom made me some bread to take back, and I had my dad check my tires. After all that my mom offered to pay for my gas!! $1.39 per gallon, not bad. From the gas station we went to my grandmother's where I helped my mom move something for my aunt. I finally got to leave home and head back to school. I got back later than I would have liked to. Still I got back safe and sound. So yay.
Monday my first class was cancelled and I worked from 4-9:30, Tuesday I went to classes and then went to work from 5-9:45, and Today my first class was cancelled again and I have to be at work at 4.
Exciting stuff I tell ya.
That's about it. If I missed something Elise or Linda can comment.
I'm gonna take a nap now and then go to work!!
