Dude.
Full weekend.
Lots of work stuff, and cool stuff, and switch-y stuff.
I got to see the Shins! They were at our amphitheatre on
Friday with Blind Pilot and the Head and the Heart. And they were great. Good
mix of old and new songs, went with good people, just had an excellent time
groovin’ and listening to our TD geek out about how much nicer their lights
were than the theatre’s. Golden evening.
Saturday night: Same
venue, but with… Wait for it… Tenacious D. Oh. Sweet. Moses. Now, I can
honestly say I’ve never wondered what a giant, inflatable, penis-shaped phoenix
would look like, but whatever expectations I didn’t have were blown out of the
water. (They used confetti in a way confetti ought never to be used.)
Basically, JB and KG are golden gods. Oh! And I unexpectedly ran into some
friends from high school, so we got to rock out with our respective
unmentionables out and belt along with the D. It was glorious. (Totally made up
for the impressively mediocre opener.)
Later, came back to the house to find a bunch of people
trippin’ balls, which is usually fine, but this time… BITCHES ATE MY APPLES. I
was peeved. Plus, there was some middle of the night naked time, followed up by
throwing up (both of which sounded uncomfortably similar), that took place in
the living room. So, that was cute. Got a stain on our carpet that kind of
looks like Tennessee, now.
Highlight: Super terrific Eugene/Monmouth folk were
visiting. We wandered around and took an obscene amount of pictures (well, they
did) and made ice cream and hung out with their parents and it was the best.
I’d been missing just hanging out and talking and watching movies with people.
(I’m pretty sure I like Bend and all, but there isn’t really
anyone who I have long-into-the-night
conversations with here.)
(…Yet?)
Last, but not least, the tall one and the lady one moved out
this morning to work at their respective state parks. The times, they are
a-changin’.
( Incidently, they took the internet with them, so I’m
reporting to you from Shari’s. The next month is going to be interesting.)
Aaaaaaaaaand, back to my research paper and mozzarella
sticks…
Livin’ the dream.
