a day at a concert on a sunday .
12.01.04 @ 2:43 a.m.

fox studios. concert. evanescence. live. & this is how it was.

i left home at 11:30am looking something like this.
1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 & 6 & 7 & 8 & 9 & 10 & 11

i first met up with kate & riley ( click ) & had breakfast at gloria jeans, just outside central. we bought some permanent markers for autographs & terryaki sushi to eat & headed for fox studios.

we watched an interview with the distillers & amy lee, live. i swear she waved at me & urged for my number in our eye contact, but i knew that since everyone was watching, i wouldn;t be able to confirm this. so then cigarettes were smoked (blue winnies. ugh.) i halfed with a friend of kate;s. we pushed into the 1 kilometre queue & sat & waited.

finally, erin called, & i left kate, riley & friend in the queue & went in search. i never met up with them again.

due to a fragile erin, we stayed toward the back of the pavilion, so i couldn;t take any photos of amy lee in action 'cause my camera has no zoom. even though i wanted to be in spitting distance of evanescence, i let erin & dave ( click ) choose, since they;d come all the way from jindabyne.

i was disgusted with the child pornography ( click ) they kept subjecting me to. i mean, honestly. but i saw the way they looked at each other ( click ) & i knew it was love.

i grabbed erin in between breaths ( click ) & tried different angles ( click ). i decided i like her skin a lot better than mine, the bitch.

i wanted to get close to the sexyboytoy erin brought ( click ) & decided, despite serious concerns that he might be a pirate with a black tooth, that he;s a nice guy. erin wouldn;t be able to date him without my stamp of approval, so it;s just as well. we acted like real nerds ( click ), but amy lee says nerds will take over the world. i;m not worried about my fate as leader of nerd activism anymore.

the concert ended & erin & dave had to go back to their little hotel near central. we waited in line for a taxi. erin & dave attempted at looking "thoughtful" ( dave;s impression + erin;s impression ). personally, i think they both sucked.

um. i think dave was a bit stoned, toward the end. ( click ). & i think erin was on steriods ( click ). me being the only normal person in a group was definitely a first.

erin hugged the tree ( click ) one last time before she got in the taxi with loverboy dave, & left me all a-fucking-lone. friends these days, i ask you.

after getting lost for 30 minutes, i finally found my dad & got home at around 12:30am. & then i realised it.

& it hit me, suddenly. ( click ). i noticed, that for the first time in 2 years, i wore a t-shirt ( click ).

oh, & these are my famous boxers ( click ).

music: the gossip; cat fight
mood: giddy
