I AM HOME.

wow, tour was amazing to say the least. we started out in minneapolis and were front row. yep that's the way we roll, get real. we had some issues with the venue staff but their manager actually came through and was AMAZING. so we bought her and another worker a $5 sbux gift card for watching out for us. um...we watched a lady get mugged. it was hardcore. ash gave taylor the bracelet i made for him and we talked about it on the walk for a little bit. i figured he'd just like shove it in his pocket and it'd end up in the trash can but he had ash put it on so...it stayed on for three days. we asked about it in columbus and it was a little big so i'm going to make him a new one and give it to him in chicago. except i don't remember what size the original was, UGH. i never make stuff for guys so this is hard.

before going into the minneapolis show, we went to take our sleeping bag to the car to find out there was a nail in our tire, leaving it completely flat. after the show we struggled to find someone that would come tow it and fix it. pearl & katie ended up having to stay in minneapolis and it was fixed by 8:30 the next day, ash & i took off with jenna to ATTEMPT getting good numbers for milwaukee. we ended up with 70 something and said screw it, we stayed in the back that show. that walk was intense. taylor stepped on the back of my heel, that hurt like hell. they played 'lay me down' that show and we were seriously on the floor, face down. it was rough times.

the drive from milwaukee to cleveland was HORRIBLE. i almost took out a few guardrails and we ended up pulling over to sleep in an oasis parking lot for 2 hours. i was so tired. that's what happens when you rock out two days in a row, okay? we're rockstars, get real. we were the second group of girls in cleveland and there was already venue drama when we got there. i said fuck it all and had some chicken (YES I'M A BAD VEGETARIAN OKAY). i was in a bad mood, hadn't slept in days, i was starving. sue me. we ended up second row even though we deserved first but these shady bitches were there so, what can you do? i will not drop to my knees for front row EVER. i earn it like i should. whores.

ah, columbus. i am now a decibel club member for some strange reason. whatever we got to "pass the line" and REALLY got front row. right in front of taylor's piano. right where i like to be. that show was amazing. my throat still hurts and i have no voice.

oh...

"when i was 13/14, i couldn't talk until the show. i was still growing"

"taylor, sign right by my name"
"okay!"

thanks for that taylor, we love you. hope you miss us!!!

i'll have some pictures later, i have to leave for work though. i need some throat coat tea stat, though. KILL ME. i'll leave you with these jems though:


IS IT CHICAGO YET? I NEED A BOX AND SOME BOOZE AND MY FAVES.
