Are you ready for the most exciting story of your life?

Alright. Friday night there was a local Burn Season show in Jacksonville (their hometown) at this club called the French Quarter. catchy right? Sooo after finding out that Davies was heading to j-ville that night and tons of convincing from my parents, Laura and I were off to jacksonville with davies

the plan was, to go to the show and hang out then afterwards stay over at this Kid matt's house that laura knew who lived not too far from the french quarter. I'd met him once a long time ago. ANYWAY!

We get to Jacksonville and find the french quarter. go in and immediately see Bobby (the drummer) standing around and stuff. so we say hi to him and chit chat for a little bit and find out that Philler is going on next and me and laura had wanted to see them for a while now. so we go in and try to find a spot while Philler set up

They played. They were pretty good. Kinda like orgy mixed with PM5K. i didnt like the last song though. ANYWAY! they were cool. Me and laura somehow found our way to the front of the stage for Burn Season! who was up next. while their stuff was getting set up this little kid with a fucking nice guitar started jammin out to pantera on stage and it was BAD THE FUCK ASS. Pantera put me in an even more good mood, if that was already possible.

Soooo their equipment got set up and they played. They were amazing. We were right there, underneath them. They played Boredom and Perfect this time! That made me a happy little mauribee. It was the most amazing show I've been to for them so far. It just felt so personal because its their hometown and it was fucking 10 bucks to get in when we paid almost 40 to see them at HOB 2 weeks prior to.

So yeah. Amazing show. Amazing is an understatement. Afterwards me and Laura said hi to damien and to bobby again and talked for a few minutes. There was mentioning of a possible party later but then everyone disappeared and we didn't know what was going on so we left. It was kind of disappointing, but it IS their hometown and I'm sure they were catching up witha bunch of people. its not like we've never hung out with them before. we DID drink with them at HOB :D

so anyway, Davies dropped us off at matt's apartment in Orange Park and he went to his parents house i think and we chilled and played guitar hero and talked about dumb things. Like matt's girlfriend. she;s 17 but looks and acts as if she were 12. She kept barging in thinking he was going to cheat on her with us or something really stupid like that. She started fighting with him and shit. Big dramatic stuff. it was really fucking retarted. well finally we got rid of her for a while. we stayed up all fucking night talking and being stupid. then

at fucking 6am in the middle of laughter, there she was. she burst in the door and saw the three of us lying perfectly APPROPRIATELY in matt's bed and starts screaming "ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS? ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS? ABLAHBLAHBLAHBLAHBLAH! YOU GUYS NEED TO GET THE FUCK OUT AND HAVE RESPECT FOR ME YOU KNOW THIS WAS MY BOYFRIEND AND YOU'RE FUCKING SLEEPING ON OUR BED BLAH BLAH BLAH WAH WAH WAH IM A SUPID CUNT"

I'm like woah woah woah bitch listen up. We don't have a fucking way out of here till late this afternoon (davie's was off with his brother doing something) and matt said we could stay here so you need to calm the FUCK down you little freckled faced pipsqueak. we don't have anywhere to go but here. and she's like (to laura) "oh what is this your little.. your little THING? Thats not my fucking problem you need to go out on the street WHERE YOU BELONG"

and all this other BULLSHIT. now everythign would have been fine... if matt didn't turn into a complete fuckign idiot. he comes in and says "shut the fuck up. quit yelling at her she'll call the fuckin cops i know all this is bullshit but eveyone needs to shut the fuckup"

basically sticking up for her when clearly we were the ones who had done nothing wrong, when he told us we could stay there in the first place. he asked if davies could get us and we said no, because he was an hour away at his brother's automotocrossracingwhateverthefuck it was. but he still sided with her. they went outside to argue. Laura and I looked at each other and decided to get the fuck out of there if he was going to be that fucking stupid about all this shit. we got dressed, packed our stuff and left the fucking apartment. they must have too because we didnt see them anywhere.

So it's 7am. we walk down the street a little ways and cross the highway to mcdonalds. Because we were starving and had gotten absolutely no sleep (suprisingly we were still fucking wired) so we sat in mcdonalds for a bit and ate. we found out that there was a wal mart a few traffic lights down. So we headed in that general direction. The sun started to get really hot. and it ws humid as fuck. it sucked. the heat made the tiredness finally sink in and we found a publix and crashed in there for a good 45 minutes and read magazines. We rested up a bit and then walked down the road some more and found the walmart. we went there and Laura grabbed me a wheelchair and she wheeled me around wal mart because I was delusional and completely unfunctional from fatigue, heat, and walking in the heat while being fatigued.

We found some comfy chairs. Laura passed out in one. I passed out in the wheelchair lol. We looked like a bunch of homeless fuckin bums with our publix bags full of our clothes and shit. after resting there, we went into the bathroom where we cleaned up and washed our faces and stuff (now i really felt likea bum) and refreshed ourselves.

We got a hold of davies and told him what happned and that we were roaming Jacksonville stranded in wal mart and he said that he and his brother could probably get us around 1-ish. It was 9am.

If you really must know. We bullshitted. In wal mart. For 5 fucking hours. We called ted and he entertained us for 45 minutes. thank god for that ridiculous kid lol. anyway. Uhmmm. yeah. It was a very long wait. We kept in contact with davies and got updates and such blah blah. at noon i guess me and laura went to eat in subway across the street from wal mart. then davies called us and said to meet him at the next traffic light so we did, and we were rescued. sort of.

we went all the way back to his brother (john) racing thingy. sat there in the shade but still smoldering heat for 3 more hours and were surrounded by flies and ...more heat.

Now you must be thinking: wow they must really be hating life.
but the funny thing is, as crazy and sucky as the situations may have seemed, we were enjoying ourselves very much. It was a fucking ADVENTURE in whole new world. or city.

but we were ready to just go home.

SO. we finally leave. get some gas, go to davie's parents house and return to davie's car (we were in john's)

we fucking left and got MC FUCKING DONALDS BECAUSE WE WERE STARVING BY THIS TIME. it was like. 7:00pm. we still hadnt had any sleep in about 36 hours. it was the best double cheeseburger i'd ever eaten.

So we make our fuckign way on I-95 south to leave jacksonville (finally, and sadly) we say buy to lovely jacksonville, and we just get out not even a mile of the city limits when something goes wrong and Davies pulls over on the side of the highway. The car wouldnt start up again. there's some random fluid leaking by the wheel. We figured out later that it was the AC water. but Davie's figured out that he's most likely out of gas and that his meter fucked up and told him he still had a quarter of a tank

So in this process. I lose my fucking mind. You guys remember those "Psychotic Rampages" I had a few times in like 10th grade.

...yeeaaah. One a those. Laura found some PVC pipes and we started whacking them around and hitting the ground with them and breaking them in maniacle laughter and crazyness. we couldnt stop laughing. it was just so funny! it was like jacksonville didnt want us to leave. AND it was a full moon.

IT WAS BADASS!!!

So davies called popalock and 40 minutes later they came and brought us 5 gallons of gas. we colleted ourselves, or what was left of us, and filled up at the nearest gas station. then went home. finally slept some in the car. it was nice.

got home at about midnight. said hi to the folks, and took the best shower i'd ever taken in my life. We were so fuckign dirty and SMELLY and disgusting from being out in the heat all day and all that shit. i felt like a whole new clean person

so that's our crazy jacksonville tale. I cant wait to go back :D it was so fuckign awesome. what an adventure! but next time i'm taking my own car so we dont have any problems of strandation!
