So... I've been wicked crazy busy the past few weeks. Last few times I've updated, things have been kinda down, so allow this to be the wicked happy post, because I've been riding a wave of awesome!


Lots of pictures in this blog!

my life has been filled with a lot of this lately. It's my statistics homework and it's murderous. But I think I'm getting it. I'll find out when we take our midterm on Tuesday.


This was thousands of bees all swarmed in a tree outside my school. Creepy.


I got my lower knuckles tattooed. Really it speaks for itself I suppose.


I went to see Flobots in concert with my friend Heather

They were amazing!





I also went to see the WWE Payback PPV, and as you can see- my seats were ridiculously close!

They made me sit on Randy Orton's face.

In other news the sky has looked like this a lot lately. DOOM!!!


Allow me to counter that doom with the cuteness of the kitten watching TV with me.





And all of this past week I've been doing the most awesome thing ever- touring around IL and WI with One-Eyed Doll as they were supporting Polkadot Cadaver.

SPOILERS! (Click to view)


First night was in Joliet with The Desire Remains The Same

and Beneath The Hallow

Exotic Animal Petting Zoo

One-Eyed Doll

Polkadot Cadaver

The sound at Mojoes in Joliet wasn't great, but the show was fun and there was a decent crowd. Afterwards a group of us all went to Denny's and then ate flan in the parking lot.



Me and Heather again

Me Heather and Junior who is the drummer/producer/etc for One-Eyed Doll

Kimberly the singer/guitarist/etc for One-Eyed Doll and Heather

Kimberly and me

Kimberly lent me her hair for a moment and said I looked like Dave Grohl

The next night was in St Joseph MI

here's Exotic Animal Petting Zoo again

managed to get both Kimberly and Junior in the same picture

here's Kimberly on the floor in the pit doing her thing

and Polkadot Cadaver again


There was a smaller group of us hanging out after this show so we all piled in the tour van and drove around listening to the as-of-yet-unreleased material they've got recorded


The next show I got to go to was in Peoria IL

with Seven Year Existence

and Prey For Us who do a wicked version of REM's Losing My Religion
Sadly Exotic Animal Petting Zoo's van broke down, so they weren't there

but of course Junior

and Kimberly were, and since a handful of us had been to a few of the shows on this tour, they asked if we had requests before the show and they played mine. "Black Forest" which was awesome!

Polkadot Cadaver has a new fan in me as well after seeing them a few times. Their song "Forever and a Day" is a jam!


This is Gwen

and Allison who I got to know over the course of the past week, they're wicked groovy people.


And thus came the end of the week of epicness.
Here's me with Kimberly and Junior and Mike their roadie who is also an awesome musician and Melinda aka "Snork" the merch girl all cool people who I hope to hang with again next time we're all in the same area.




And there you go- aside from looking for a new apartment, not too much else to report. I've been back on the dating scene with some ups and downs... and just doing the school/pro-wrestling/karaoke thing as usual.

Hope everyone else is doing well!
