Wow... it has been a billion years since I posted. Since then, Seattle lost another musician. Ben (the last person I posted about) was more a friend of friends... but was always sweet to me. Last month (I believe, I try not to think about it) Seattle lost a music icon. My friend Slats passed away. If you google Slats Seattle, you can learn about him... love him or hate him, Slats was a Seattle icon. Lots of rumors have gone around about him being a drug addict... but his close friends knew why he was the way he was, and that rumors are bullshit. He was a pain in the ass but a pain in the ass that I miss greatly.

I've gone back down to California for a bit... my friend/former boss wanted help until she sold her pizza place... I missed Cali, so, took the opportunity. It officially sells at the end of June... where shall I wander next??

I'm not on here much, I finally got my computer up and running, so I will try to be on more... SG just doesn't have my heart any more. Everyone has seen me naked, unfortunately not at my full potential, and it has been almost 7 years buuuuuuut... I dunno, we'll see.

<3's to anyone that still pays attention to my rambling.

Also: I just realized I have lots of friend requests... I'm sorry, I haven't been ignoring everyone!!!

I'm sorry for not getting to everyones comments right now... I am just posting because I found out that Ben Hills, the drummer for The Shy Ones (a fun, local Seattle band) was killed in an apartment fire last night.

RIP Ben <3 You will be missed.

Sooooooooo... my ex messaged me today, and told me "You were right about me being a crappy boyfriend. I'm sorry" out of nowhere. I pointed out that I never said that he was a crappy boyfriend, he just assumed that I meant that when I told him what was wrong with our relationship. He wrote back "ha", and changed the subject. I'm not sure what to make of it.

Oh, yeah... in case you haven't figured it out yet: single. It's been a stressful couple of weeks, not sure whats going on with everything. It sucks when you try so hard to make everything work but it still doesn't seem to. I, seriously, have the worst fucking luck with men. My last ex cheated on me, I forgave him, and moved to fucking IOWA with him... only to find out that he had intentions to cheat again. So, at least Rob isn't an ass... hahaha he's just a pain in my ass, jk. I hate being with someone that I argue with so much when I know we shouldn't even be arguing.. Ugggggggggh...

Someone mail me a hot tattooed boy with a sexy southern accent. My birthday is in a couple weeks. We'll call it even. (Haha)

Speaking of my birthday, 15 days til I go to California. I am ridiculously excited.

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY YANKEES!!!!

Allrighty, full on blog time...

KMFDM show... ha. Jules (guitar), and Andy (drums) are friends of mine. They are both in the first band (The Spittin Cobras) on my bf's record label One Eyed Records. None of our friends listen to them, however, I used to and Jules gave me a guest list spot for the show, so, I figured "why not?" The show was interesting... it was rather long, and (I hate to say it) boring. It amused me that Sascha and Luchia spent most of the show (aside from singing) turning knobs on little (sound?) boards in front of each of them... when anyone that isn't a complete moron could tell that it was just for show, and did nothing. I saw entirely too many 14 year olds (who woulda known that they still have such a young following?) in skanky latex outfits... but the 40+ year olds rocking out like 12 year olds at an NSYNC concert were the absolute greatest. I ended up watching those people for most of the show. I will say that I did enjoy the first couple songs, it just got repetative after a while. However, Jules shred on the guitar, as usual... he is one of the few people I have seen that has the ability to really amaze me with his talent.

After the show, we went to the "green room" to drink free beer, and wait for everyone to clear out and head to the after party at a local club, The Noc Noc. I hadn't been to The Noc Noc in yeeeeeeeeeears... it was fun. My friends and I were all slightly out of place amongst the platforms, and black lipstick. Haha. At one point, a girl came up to Jules and said "Hi, I'm (insert name here). You probably don't remember me but we met at (insert random place)... you were drunk, we made out." Jules gave me a HORRIFIED look, so, I opted to tell them "you guys should probably make out again, to commemorate the first make out." WIthout missing a beat Jules responded with "Uh.,, I have scabs. All over my mouth." (He doesn't) and then turned to me and mumbled "and I don't need any more." Not too much happened aside from that, just hanging out and beer drinking. We ended up staying until the club closed. Had to skip the after hours hotel rampage, as I had to be awake at 6:45 am for work. Boo for being responsible.

What else... Ah, yes. The water pump on my car is still broken. It has been since... March? I have the pump, and looked up how to fix it. I'm pretty sure I can do it but there is a belt that has to be removed, and I'm pretty sure I'll need help with that. My boyfriend keeps saying that he will help me... buuuuuuuut that, clearly, hasn't happened yet! I asked him about it today, and he said that last time he came up to do it, I didn't want to. Serious? NO WAY. My car has been broken for 8 MONTHS, there is NO WAY I would turn down an opportunity to try to get it running because I am sick of having to ride the bus.

So, my birthday is next month... everyone is going to be gone for it and Thanksgiving (bf will be on tour with the Cobras) SO I am going to California to visit. I am ridiculously excited. I miss everyone there so much. I get, like, 2 calls a day asking if I need a ride to the airport, and where I am spending Thanksgiving. I'm afraid I am going to get there, and not want to leave (ha, last time I moved back, thats what happened!!).

So, since I've already plugged One Eyed Records, and the Cobras... here are tour dates. These boys put on one of the best live shows I've ever seen (and I have yet to see them be on an "off" night), if you can make it, I highly recommend going!! TOUR DATES!!! Go, and tell Rob to help fix my car. The Spittin Cobras are also on iTunes. In case you were wondering They made it into the top 6 out of thousands of bands last year for Guitar Centers open for Motley Crue contest.

*EDIT* Grr... I can't get the video to embed so here is the LINK

There is another video on Youtube that is a recording of an acutal performance of this song but I liked all the random show footage that was used in this video (including Alx hanging from the rafters, and sitting on Jules' shoulders while he was trying to play...). Please please pleaaaase at least give em a listen.

Hmmm... I think that is all I can think of at the moment. Thanks to everyone for their patience!!



*EDIT* Duh, I forgot to post about my Halloween costume. It's been a tough debate since I am strapped for cash, since I am going to Cali next month. BUT I think I am going as a Dexter murder victim (I love that show)... saran wrap, knife in the chest, slash on the cheek... it could be a good idea.

I don't feel like posting a blog right now because I just got off work, and am going to be lazy instead BUT I will post a recent picture of me. I need to change my display pic but forgot how to... I am sure it is simple and will do it soon. Maybe, haha.



The pic is kind of blurry because my cell phones camera SUCKS but t'is better than nothing. I will be back to tell about the KMFDM show. Arrrrrrrrrgh... I feel like such a slacker. Fail.

xo

Guess who just found out that they are on the guest list for the KMFDM show tonight? STOKED.

I have recently rediscovered my love for Alkaline Trio. I hated them the first time I heard them but they grew on me...

Hell Yes:

I gave up on you a long time ago
How can you blame me?
We made plans to meet and you never showed
You kept me waiting
They said everything would work out just fine
They said you'd help me
But as it turns out it was all a lie
And they're off someplace far away laughing at me

You've been there for me one time in my life
But it didn't matter
You came and went so fast all my hope
And faith in you shattered
And now here I sit alone in this room
No one to confide in
You watched all my dreams come apart at the seams
You laughed, you left, you waited in hiding

Bless me dark father I have sinned
I've done it before and I'll do it again
Cause it keeps me warm, and makes you smile
Been beneath me all the while
Hell yes

You gave up on me along time ago
I can't say I blame you
I rejected the faith in your holy rays
Is what it comes down to
They said everything would work out just fine
I just went crazy
But I'm better now having a good time
Being selfish, and drunken, and vulgar, and lazy

Bless me dark father I have sinned
I've done it before and I'll do it again
Cause it keeps me warm, and makes you smile
Been beneath me all the while

Bless me dark father I can't win
Without you I'm as good as dead
Cause you keep me warm, you make me smile
You've been on my shoulder all the while

Whispering sweet nothings
Whispering sweet nothings
Whispering sweet nothings
You've been whispering sweet nothings

I am not nearly motivated enough to write anything particularly worth reading at the moment. I should probably work on that. Hmm... perhaps I will get liquored up and come back. Good plan? I think so!

As a matter of fact, I AM a classy motherfucker. Clearly Haha. This pic was taken a while back when my friend came to visit before moving back to Germany. I was still drunk from the previous night at 9am... hence molesting the bronze pig.

This is just a quick post to apologize for disappearing again. I appreciate all the comments, and messages, and AM BACK... I promise. I will get back to everyone uhm... maybe later today... if not, then soon. The weekend is not a good time to make my re-entrance!

Love to all of you... and now... BEER!

Cheers

As a matter of fact, I did fall off the face of the Earth.
