ACL 2K5

THANK YOU BLAKE BUFFINGTON.... FREE 3 DAY PASSES KICKED ASS!!!

Saturday I got off work at 3:00, picked up a ticket for Giffy K and headed to the festival. We got to park at Blake's law firm, so the walk was not bad at all....

IT WAS SOO HOT AND DUSTY... and I loved every minute of it....

I saw:
Death Cab for Cutie - great show, good to hear their new stuff on there.. I love the new album.
John Butler Trio - watched them while we ate. I just love their sound, so chill.
The dirty Dozen Brass Band - wished we could have stayed longer.
Jet - It could have "rocked a little harder" but Giffy K's yelling made it all worth it :)
Bloc Party- awesome show, really want to get a little more into their music. I like it.
Oasis- horrible...enough said
Widespread panic - AMAZING, favorite show of the day. I love hippy dancing...

I got off work at 3:00 again on sunday, and headed back down, to hang in the 108 degree heat...Gotta Love Texas.

I saw:
The Arcade Fire - BEST SHOW OF THE FESTIVAL... I am in love... its been a while.
The Decemberists - Had never heard them, but I am impressed.
Wilco - They were good. I think the show was a lot better for those that knew all the songs. They didn't do much for new listeners. We left early.
Franz Ferdinand - Just caught the tale end from far away, but they sounded good.
The Black Keys - great band, one of my favorite perfomances there.
Coldplay - I was wondering what kind of show they would put on, because their music is so chill and depressing. But they were awesome, even played some Johnny Cash... maybe just because we are in Texas, but who knows. I did not want them to stop...

Some pics:





Over all, it was an amazing adventure. I fear that I am going to be spending some money on CD's... donations accepted.

Friday night was solid downtown action... Great little weekend.... :) I love music so much.

Sideways

I love it when you listen to a song and you can connect with it so deeply that it takes over all of your emotions, and you feel the song. Makes you want to laugh and cry all at the same time.

One of the best feelings ever.

I guess I can sleep when I am dead.....

So school ... is hard ... really hard this semester. But I can do it. Shit, If I can do good in school this semester, I don't think there is anything I can't do.

I have some really good friends.

I have started working out on a regular basis. I really need to get in better shape. I miss being hot.

I want a boyfriend. That is sad isn't it? I just don't think I am cut out for the dating scene. I like knowing that someone wants to be with me, and I like caring for and being with other people. But you know what they say, if you are looking, you will never find it. But I don't really know how to not look. I just want someone nice, that opens doors and lets me order first. A gentleman if you will. But I have to be able to talkto him... there is nothing worse than a surface relationship.

Now I sound desperate, I promise I am not. I have Andrea.. and she is all I need...... hehe

Things are a little stable now... bad things are happening that I won't really go into detail, but everyone is really upbeat and positive about them. It helps. Needless to say, I am worried about the people I love right now, but am sure that everything and everyone will be alright.

Until next time... here are some fun pics.... I spared you the one of my ass.... you will have to ask larissa for that one.

Labor Day Weekend

so I am upset, nothing I wont get over.

This weekend was not so good. Filled with drama and people that treated me like shit.

But here are some pictures of some really kick ass girls that feed me pumpkin pie and cool whip to make me feel better. Thanks girls.. I love you :)
