manual labor is so, so, hard. i would seriously give my left tit for a washer and dryer in my house. i'd give the other tit for hardwood floors, hairless cats, and a pollen-less spring. how is there this much dust in the entire world?!

i am sneezy and hot.

guise, i don't even know what i want to update about the weekend. and did i ever write about washington or chicago?

friday, krit and i visited the arboretum, where panic shot the the album promo photo shoots. there was a cheerleader movie being filmed there, and we took pictures of birds and each other. i picked an orange from a tree in the rose garden. we also went to santa monica pier, and made up an au where gerard does caricatures and portraits and frank works at his dad's churro stand.

saturday, we hit up bamboozle for new found glory and paramore, before heading to the motel to meet everyone. i met monkeycrackmary, ficbyzee, miss_saigon on saturday night, plus callsigns, and we all watched panic @ el disco on snl. they sounded completely awesome for 'nine in the afternoon' but sucktastic for 'i write sins...'. we think brendon is purposefully singing it badly, so that people will stop wanting to hear it. i never liked that song, don't like it now, and wish it had never been a single. meh.

sunday, we all had brunch and talked about fandom at inappropriate volumes. then we spent all day making each other laugh and running from one end of the park to the other trying to see all of mychem's favorite bands. it worked out in our favor though, because at the table signing for new tomorrow (a skeleton crew band) is where we all met frank. personally, new tomorrow is too hardcore for me, but their performance was good, and we shouted for them a lot when they were side stage at mcr later, and we think that made them feel good. i also let new tomorrow drink some of my beer at the sc tent.

seeing my chem did nothing to quiet my desire for them at all. i just want them so much more. i cried really hard during "famous last words." i am not afraid to keep on living i felt such an overwhelming peace, the crowd had mellowed, the weather was perfect, and there was just this amazing moment, when i was the only one there, and i just screamed and screamed and cried and it was cathartic and amazing.

koncupiscience has always been so kind and generous to me, and i couldn't have had a better weekend.
