fuck. 362 days..

what are the dates for next year exactly? I know it's the end of october ish but yeah

I miss leonardo's

I miss everyone already.

That was my first Fest, and it most certainly won't be my last . . . I hate this "real life" bullshit like work and school - I wish there wasn't a year to go.

Right when I got home, I felt it
Still do.
Already ready for Fest 7!

if i had to guess id say its going to be the same weekend as the Florida-Georgia game like it has been the past 2 years or so, but yeah when I woke up monday i just went "shit i have to wait another year now"

yeah I was really sad all day yesterday, still am. I miss Gainesville. I miss the Reggae Shack.

me too. i love you guys.

post-fest-hangover sucks.

going to try to make it to the avail show in baltimore tonight and the lucero show tomorrow at the black cat. going to be pretty tough, since i have no voice, and my muscles are all rigor-mortised.

but i feel like i gotta ween myself. or else i might get fucking post-fest DTs

Reggae Shack was amazing.. so was 'Gator Dawgs, Five Star and Leonardo's. I got home about 4 hours ago and i don't know what to do with myself. I spend a week without the internet or a t.v, and it was the best week of my life. i sat and talked to people all night, we wandered around, went for drinks and food and just used every second of the day to do something constructive. how can i go back to work? i already knew it was pointless but now i have seen the alternative face to face.

to paraphrase a line from Fight Club, "After Festing, everything else in your life has the volume turned down."



also, the next issue of my zine (black lesbian president) is going to be a Fest special, with interviews with bands who played and generally all about the week i was over there. it'll be out in mid-december hopefully. i'll keep you posted if anyones interested.

this is absolutely how I feel. I never made it to Gator Dogs unfortunately, but the Gyro place ruled as well as Leonardo's. Their vegan cookies were so good, and cheap too.

Godamn that's good.

I saw you twice this weekend. WTF Manz?

yea i am sooo bummed to have to be at work today, its going to be a long year

I overheard a cute girl on the street after Small Brown Bike say, "Now I'm going to go home and I'll be lonely."

I thought too late to offer to keep her company, but I know exactly what she meant. 3 days straight of seeing friends from all over the country, and making new friends. Now I go back to my routine of barely hanging out with anyone besides my roommate and my dog. And I prefer the company of my dog most of the time.
