"Time portals and shit."


Hello! It's been good times lately. Friday started out with a nice, relaxing day of school. When it was over I decided to check in with The Paso Robles Inn about hiring me. They said they got my background check and I looked good to go. So I was hired! Then I had to run down towards Templeton to get a drug test. I urinated the straight edge out of me and was clean. So I headed back to The Paso Inn and filled out some paperwork, which mostly consisted of me signing my name on 500 different documents saying somewhat of the same thing. "Don't sue us, don't use drugs, we won't discriminate, you shouldn't discriminate, if someone appears to be on drugs tell us, wear appropriate clothing, don't sue us, don't come intoxicated..." So somewhere between leaving from the Paso Inn to get my drug test and actually getting my drug test, I received a call from Reuben Sawyer.

Old Man Roo asked if I was attending the Circle Takes the Square show in Half Moon Bay that night. I said, "No, no, no Roo, for I bear no means of currency to make the journey." And Reuben responded, "Well, I have around $30 bucks for gas? And Evan Smith would want to go and would pitch in more money?" And that's what persuaded me to make it to the show in Half Moon Bay.

After that bright phone call, I called Rosalind and she decided she would also love to witness Circle Takes the Square. I picked her up, ran home and grabbed some money from Ma and Pa, and made it to Roo's pad by 4 o'clock. Reuben's now ex-girlfriend (but at the time was not his ex-girlfriend) was sitting on his bed and him on the computer. She left and Reuben got dressed. He picked up his money from his dresser and realized it was only $3 instead of $30. So he asks his Mommy for some mo' munz. She makes him clean the bathroom first and finally gives him $10. By this time it's 4:30 and I think we'll never make it on time to see every band play. We leave and make good time, stopping for gas on the way. I call Josh to see if the show has started yet and he says no and I tell him to call me when it does. Around 7:30 or so, we're coming over the hill to Half Moon Bay and I call to see if he forgot to call me when it started. The best thing happened. They were having PA troubles and had to delay getting started. I knew we'd make it on time.

I never told Josh I was coming, but instead I said I was in SLO walking downtown with Rosalind. So when we arrived, everyone was pretty surprised we were there. The show was amazing. Ladders opened up and got the crowd pumped on music. Then Comadre played and the crowd went wild. Junius followed and did exceptional. Their vocals got old after a while, but they played very well... plus their light show was really cool. Then came Circle Takes the Square and boy did they make the drive and money worth while. After they played 5(?) songs, they said goodnight, but the kids wanted more. So they finished up playing the rest of their CD. Some stupid kid in front of the singer kept grabbing his mic and acting like he was their #1 fan of all time. He even gave the singer a hug afterwards. I just decided to put that to express my hatred towards him. Then Graf Orlock played last because of van trouble and they couldn't get there on time. They were hella brutal and hella legit. Then it was time to head home. I almost ran out of gas because no gas stations for miles were open. But we found one and made it home in one piece.

After dropping off Rosalind at home, Roo and I went at my house. We thought it was empty, but after checking my brother's and sister's room, we found out that 6 or 7 drunk girlies filled my humble home. I told Asia (one of the many "drunkies") "Josh says Fuck you!" under strict orders from Josh. Because Reuben refused to sleep, we stayed up watching videos and listening to music until 4:30 in the mo'nin. Finaallllyyy, I convinced Reuben we needed some sleep. So we did. And that's that.

So now that you've read an extremely dragged out story of my wonderful Friday, you should comment to let me know you read it. Thanks y'all.
