This is going to be an uneventful Halloween.
Going to my aunt's house for my aunt and grandpa's birthdays.
Meh.

Who are the Lone Star Girls?

Watch us slowly disappear with time...

(They are so adorable.)

SO.

I'm pretty much stoked for Anberlin coming to Chicago next week.

I've been listening to them since like my sophomore year, but this year, I REALLY started getting into them.

But yeah, I'm excited.

So excited, I made a header for this blog at 3 in the morning.

I don't have Photoshop on this computer, but yay for Picnik.

I decided to mix it up a little and VLOG what I wanted to say.

Don't Vote.

Happy Birthday to Me

It's only 9:50 a.m. and I'm already not having a good day.

The Distance is Spanned Between You and I

If I have alarmed you, I didn't try

I'm tongue tied

I've got to be honest, I'm terrified to fly blind

I tried to disarm you I played this part a thousand times

The hunter's the hunted

I'm terrified

I'm open wide

The distance is spanned between you and I

Can I see you tonight?

When the pen in our hands and our best laid plans

Will stand alone on our side

I wanted to have this under control

The story told

You came and rewrote it opened the door I've never known

You say that you hold them, the sands of time

You never lie

They pull like a current

I call to shore

There's no reply

The distance is spanned between you and I

Can I see you tonight?

When the pen in our hands and our best laid plans

Will stand alone on our side

And I never wanted anything like this before

The distance is spanned between you and I

Can I see you tonight?

When the pen in our hands and our best laid plans

Will stand alone on our side

The bridges that stand between you and I

Come over tonight

When the pen in our hands and our best laid plans

Will stand alone on our side

Of mice and men on our side

I make different playlists/mixes for each month, and for October, I decided I wanted a "chill mix," something to listen to when I felt like relaxing.
I decided to give We the Living's album, Heights of the Heavens, a listen to for the first time since Warped Tour.
I absolutely love these guys.

Check them out.

Pointless...

He said, "Sam, I miss you.  I've gotta go, but let's catch up later."

That made me cry.

I wish we were friends like we were before.

Hodge Podge

Mmm, yeah definitely haven't updated in a while.

Sunday was a blasty blast.  I definitely needed it.

I picked up Mandy and Tracy and we headed down to DePaul University in Lincoln Park.  

Found a wonderful parking spot just feet away from the quad, which I definitely think wasn't gonna happen.  One of the first highlights of my night.

We got to talk a bit with Cavashawn before their set, which was stellar.

The boys played a great set, minus the fact that the sound guys were a little too trigger happy with the echo effect.

The food was pretty much gone.  Didn't eat.  End of story.

Then Tonka played.  My god, those guys never disappoint.  They're so freaking fantastic.

They had a bunch of new tunes.  Sounding good, fellas.

After the show, we chilled a bit with Jesse, Ben, Scott, and Chris.

Always a pleasure.

I missed those boys, fo sho.

Jesse & I.

Ben & I.

Chris & I.

Scott & I.

They're currently in the studio, working on a new EP.

It's gonna be ballin'.

Shot callin'.

Um, I was supposed to go out with Heather tonight and see The Ataris and American Taxi.

But guess who couldn't find her license?

That's right.  Me.

I searched everywhere and after not being able to find it, I started crying.

So yeah, Monday (aka my birthday) will be spent at the DMV with proper documentation and five bucks so I can get a new one.

Happy birthday to me.

BUT it must be done, because next Friday night...

is...

BEN FOLDS AT CONGRESS THEATER.

I've never seen him live, but Amanda says I'm in for a treat.

I love me some pianer.

What else...?

Oh.  Thanks to Meesh, I am now able to see Jack's Mannequin & Treaty of Paris' sold out show.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I am very excited. :D

That's pretty much it, I guess.

Yeah.
