Columbus Ohio

I just got back from W Laf tonight. Drove home w/the windows down and sun roof open singing to Madonna It was good times. Went down there on friday to head to Columbus w/Lexie to see Tegan and Sara. We were so excited that they were finally coming to the midwest that we bought our tickets as soon as they mentioned somewhere remotely close to us. Turns out like a day later they announced they were coming to Indy which would have been only an hour drive for us rather than a three and a half hour drive. Oh well...it was Flippin awesome! The drive there was pretty easy. Lasy year we went to theRufus/Ben Folds show in Illinios. Today we were saying that every year we need to go to a show that is far away and make it a tradition.

So anyway, The venue was very close to the ohio state campus. The campus from what we saw was pretty nice...seems like a cool college town.

Ok, about the show....like i already said, it was a rockin good time! The newport music hall had this cool feel to it. We were pretty close to the stage and for the most part had a good view. Little Brazil and Communique opened for them. We had never heard of either of the bands but were really impressed w/them. After the show they were all out front by the merchandise and we talked to them. They were cool guys! The keyboardist from Communique is really dang cute! We got our picture taken w/him and the lead singer : )
So it was finally time for Tegan and Sara to come on and the crowd pretty much went crazy. It was exciting. I commented to Lexie how good their voices were live...I was impressed. They sang stuff from "So Jealous" and some of their old stuff too. It was all good. For their encore they sang the first song I ever heard of theirs/all time favorite song of theirs "My Number". It made me smile real big when I heard that song. The show was great! BUT THE NIGHT WASN'T OVER YET...

We walked outside and decided to walk down the back alley and lo and behold there was the tour bus...so we waited around for about 15-20 minutes to see if they'd make an appearance. We just passed the time chit chatting trying to decide if we'd see them or not. I happen to be looking down the alley and I say to alexa "dude there they are..." sure enough there was Tegan and Sara making their way over. So we are like "let's go!" and we walk up and all of a sudden I got way starstruck. I've never really met anyone "famous" before. We told them that the show was great! We asked if we could take our picture w/them and they were awesome and said sure. So we have this kick ass picture of us w/them. We also had them sign our posters too. Then we left so everyone else could see them. In the midst of everyone approaching them, some fan burnt Tegan on the arm w/her cigarette.

Well that's all. I'm glad we finally got to see Tegan and Sara Lexie! Oh and one last thing...Sara has a sweet hairstyle!

peace

hmm...

Can't really think of an exciting title so I'll just leave it at that. So what have I been up to? Not a whole lot other than work. It's a good thing I love my job! Our third store opened last week and so far so good! I'm happy to finally be in a permanent place. All our new partners are awesome and I think we are going to have a kick-ass store!

So the other night I am in my room and glance down at my phone and what do i see!? It is roaming....ROAMING! I DO NOT live out in the middle of no where... there's a walmart, starbucks, lowes and other various businesses all w/in a half a mile of my home...so why am I not getting any signal? It's odd too b/c I've lived here now for 6 weeks and I haven't had this problem until the other day. It's quite frustrating. Tomorrow I will be going to the Sprint Store to resolve this.

What else...hmmm. Talked to Neil the other day. Yay! I miss him. Got a wedding invitation in the mail from my old roomie Julie (aka Teddy)! Yay for her and Ben getting married!

One more thing. I joined myspace the other day. Just like facebook it is pretty addicting. Originally I was only going to accept people who were actually my friends but since I don't know anyone up here I figured I'd accept anyone who wants to be my "friend". Everytime I check it I have new friend requests and new messages from people. I'm pretty hesitant to actually meet someone from the internet though...who knows....we'll see.

That's all for now....peace

Hiya

Just listening to some music and I thought I'd update. I'm listening to Howie Day right now. There's something about his voice that I love. Him and Coldplay are in heavy rotation in my itunes right now.

Anyway, what's new? Had two days off in a row again so I went back to Wlaf and took care of some apartment stuff and visited w/my friends of course! I really miss being around them. Chatted w/Lexie while I did some apartment stuff then we went to dinner w/Hill and Becky. It was good times just hanging out.

After that I went home to see my family and my best friend Kel. Had a really great time at home seeing all of them. It was pretty cool Kelly and I sat outside on Friday night talking about life until 2 a.m. Having conversations about life every so often w/someone important to you is nice. It was a good convo. At one point we were talking about highschool which got me thinking that she's the person I've been friends w/the longest since moving to IN. We've been friends for 8 years now. That's pretty awesome. I'm glad we got to hangout kel! Hope everything w/your knee is alright though!

So recently it seems like everyone is trying to set me up. I say bring it on! A different date every night until I find the right one!

Finally a shout out to a certain someone for making progess w/her crush today! I am definitely a smidge jealous b/c he sounds like a super great person from what I've heard.

Cheers
