So...
So tonight I am sitting home alone. I feel so emo.
So how bout a small update?
Jeremy and I went to the Jimmy Eat World show at the Pabst on 7/24. Of course, I snuck my camera in (under the boob, duh.) As it turned out, cameras were allowed as long as you didn't have your flash on. Well, Jeremy's friend who works at the Pabst let us in early so we got RIGHT UP ON THE STAGE. I got SO much video footage.
Well about 2/3rd the way through the show, some security guard approached me and told me no recording. I was like wtf. Why would they wait so long to tell me? It's not like I was RIGHT UP ON THE STAGE where everyone could see me. So I thought I'd be stealthy and turn off my display on my camera and still take video. Again, a security approached me and told me to stop, but I showed him my camera (with the black display screen) and told him I wasn't doing anything. heh.
So then, right before the encore, ANOTHER security guard came up to me and told me that I had to stop, or leave. Apparently someone was watching from the upper balcony with binoculars and kept reporting to the floor security guards about me. Pfft. Whatever. Also, he said that there was a 5 second rule when it came to pointing my camera to the stage. (Bullshit!!) It was so lame. I ended up getting all but the whole encore on video though. They can be viewed on my youtube page. haha. (youtube.com/unnoticedflare)
So then on Saturday, 7/28, I had a wedding reception to go to for my coworker Shane. He done and got hitched. It was a giant Best Buy coworker extravaganza. I went to Kim's house to get ready and met up with some more people from work. We headed down to the hall around 6. We all got free drinks for an hour and then the buffet opened.
Well I got pretty drunk... but another coworker of mine got REALLY drunk before dinner was even open and she puked EVERYWHERE. It was pretty funny. We all laugh at her now. lol.
So eventually, I went and got Chad, and then more drinking ensued, followed by dancing and shenanigans. We left around 11 and went to his friend Chris' house for some party.
So here I am, pretty trashed, and still wearing my hot dress I wore to the reception, and trying to have intellegent conversations with people. I don't remember half the stuff I said, but I know I made up with Brant (chad's brother) about a lot of things. I seriously have been HATING him lately. He's been such an asshole. But I guess we're cool now.
So we all went next door to this other guy's house and talked to his crazy girlfriend about her medical condition and Harry Potter. As we left, I took a pretty nasty fall out in the backyard, going down a small hill with some brick landscaping. I tore open my elbow, the back of my shoulder, bruised my ass and back and I cut my wrist open so there was a gross flap of skip flapping around.
Well, I took one look at my wrist and burst into tears. It didn't even HURT that bad, but I was drunk, so I overreacted. I seriously started bawling as Chad drove me home. He tried so hard to calm me down, but I just kept whimpering like a child, and then I even got those crazy hiccups that kids get when they've been crying too hard.
So we went to Taco Bell to get some food and as we were in the drivethrough, someone in the car in front of us stepped out and came to my window, and it was ANOTHER coworker, Vanessa, who wasn't at the reception. It was so odd to run into her, but I was still crying. And I just kind of showed her my wrist and kept crying and then she ran off to pee in the woods or something.
And oh man... work the next day was NOT FUN. I had an open-close shift cause everyone else was smart and they requested off.
So then lets see...
This last Tuesday was the Warped Tour. We went pretty early, but still missed half of the Starting Line's set, which makes me mad, cause they were the one band I REALLY wanted to see. Plus, it was SO hot out. I sweat off ALL of my sunscreen. We ended up seeing a LOT of bands, and walking around and seeing all sortsa stuff. We actually ended up meeting the lead singer of the Starting Line, Kenny Vasoli, which was awesome, cause he was just hanging out in the merch tent. We didn't have to wait in any line or anything. Sweet!
So then yesterday, Chad and I FINALLY GOT OUR NETELLER MONEY BACK!! And if you're still in the dark about that situation, I gave Chad $50 back in December to play online poker with. The poker site wouldn't let you directly deposit the money on to it though. You had to go through a 3rd party to send your money through because of the US online gambling restrictions. Well, He turned that money into like $1000. He sent me $600 to save for him. And then him and his brother each sent me $250 so they could get Ipods. I took out $500 of my own savings to get them the Ipods that same day, instead of waiting the few days for the money to get back to my bank account.
Well, in January, when I withdrew the money, it so happens that Neteller got caught by the US though some loophole, therefore freezing all the money in US accounts. So we had to wait 7 months for Neteller and the US to clear all charges or something. So when I woke up with $1100 in my bank account, we went to the bank to split our money up and then we went on a shopping spree... sort of.
So Chad bought me Guitar Hero yesterday. It was awesome. I had to pick up an extra controller and another game. So I guess we both splurged a bit. But I guess I'm done for a while, so I can pay off my bills. I really need to do that soon. Like REAL soon.
But anyway. I've just been sort of rambling about my last couple weeks. I guess it helps me get my mind off of other stuff I've been thinking about. I'll stop being all emo now. I'm going to go to bed or something.
