I just had the funniest freaking weekend ever. I've never heard so many one liners in my life. It was weird from the start, too... Katie and I ran into Smokin Robs and in walks.... freakin' Senor English. And then he tried to say he was just buying gum.

Then we drove up to Akron and met with the boys and watched them perform. Then we drove around for an eternity trying to find food and a hotel. We finally ended up at The King's Inn. For all of you kids with their cd... check the song titles :)

The next day we got up and we only had one towel, so I had to share it with Ricardo and Ian. And I got the towel last. Boy wetness all over me. I win.

Then we all went to the next show in Elyria. After they finished playing "King's Inn", Ricardo reached down and handed his pick to me. I thought it was uber sweet, especially considering which song it is.

Last night's show was crazy. All these people went nuts for them. Afterwards I was talking to Cardo and these kids were LINED up for his autograph, so he was signing their posters and having a conversation with me at the same time. It was almost awkward.

Then we stayed at Kristina's sister's house, and Katie and I sat in the garage and laughed at the most ridiculous things ever. We were high... on life, I reckon...

"She's an acorn in the school play!"

I haven't slept in a while....a long while...

With a steady diet of hardcore caffiene. HARDCORE.

And no food. Cause apparently caffiene suppresses your appetite. For the first time in my life, I just don't feel like eating anything at all. Flippin sweeet.

Ruckus was awesome. I was a judge. I was fair too. Mostly.

Some guy was dancing and started shaking all over Heather and it was amazing.

Oh man. Dave Mustaine on the front page of the Daily Tribune. I'm cracking up. I'm sad cause no one that reads this will get the joke.

I'm trying to kill time until Katie is ready to leave. Ian is "forcing" us to come see them and spend the next three days around Akron. Another Crackjaw weekend. I think we're gonna share beds. How exciting. Those kids are super hilarious. Their cd comes out nationwide (meaning you can buy it at your local Sam Goody or whatever) May 16th. Everyone should go out and buy it.

OH MY GOD.

I think I'm jumping outta my skin.

Went to Cinci with Katie yesterday. We got up there and decided to splurge on a fancier hotel room. Mainly because it was within VERY close walking distance of the Poison Room. We wandered around the hotel and listened to a man play tuba.

Then we walked down the street and met up Crackjaw. Ian, Katie and I went to eat at this Greek deli because the rest of the guys said it was amazing. I ordered pickle on my burger and they gave me two slices of cucumber. Freakin' Greeks.

We all went back to our hotel and watched tv. Then mom called and said my dad was hospitalized because he now has diabetes. Normal blood sugar count is between 75-100... his was freaking 590 and his organs were about to shut down. Insanity. I was worried but they got him stablized and stuff. I felt good cause the guys were being kinda supportive.

Dave and their random friend Danny walked the mean streets of Cincinnati. When they got back Danny's face was really dirty for no apparent reason. And then they proceeded to tell us how they got lost in the ghetto, met up with a Rastafarian named G-Roots, went to his apartment where the man rapped, then they bought weed, and then lost the weed. But we still don't know why Danny was dirty.

It was quite adventurous.

"The Boo. The B-O-O."

Um, I think tonight is gonna be day 4 of "No sleep for Tamara week".

And of course day 5 is tomorrow night.

Oh geez... I'm predicting a day 6.... and 7...and oh man...I'm thinking there's even an 8.
