"my booth is in a shooter bar! i'm definately taking a cab one of these days..."

i'm tired.

i'm mid-tech-week-can't-see-tired.

i've got a lot on my mind about the future. i don't care what anyone says, turning 25 is a big deal and the closer it gets the more i am aware of it and the more i am aware of this concept of the 'future'. i feel like i am on the right path i just hope the world feels it too. anyways, there's a lot on my mind. i feel like some pretty significant changes are going to be made in the next little while.

i was caught completely off-guard the other day when a 'friend' (i use that term REALLY loosely in this case) told me some very bad news-or that he got some very bad news. natasha said it was karma. i don't think karma breaks hearts, and no one deserves that kind of worry-that kind of death...i have experience with illness like that and so i offered my support. he told me i was brave to offer. i don't know what the means. why is an offer of time and a shoulder brave? isn't is what we should do. i mean, if i can be there for a friend when they need me then i feel like i'm doing ok at my life, not being brave. it just reminds me that i can always afford to be a little less self-involved. bravery doesn't even figure into it.

so amidst all the tired and weirdness and bad news i managed to accidentally have one of the funnest weekends i've had in a while. go figure...

can i just say that i LOVE my friends. seriously, i'm fucking lucky! they're supportive and kind and all give really fucking fantastic hugs.

friday was bree's birthday celebration and i have to admit i was a little nervous about going. sure, i knew a few people there but i wasn't drinking and i was worried...whatever, i ALWAYS get nervous in social situations regardless of how many people i know.

it ended up being a superduper good time. cool people. good music (yay for house parties with dj's!) and good friends!

jeff, andy, med. jeff, teira, trevor and i ended up heading over to the sidetrack for the johnson's cd release party and to see the rocky fortune. i think saturday was the 5th or 6th time i'd seen the rocky fortune and shit! they were fantastic. best they've been in my opinion. if you haven't heard them CLICK THAT LINK! and be prepared to hear one of the best bands in alberta come blasting through your speakers! fuck yes!

the johnsons made me feel 14 again. who still plays skatepunk anyways?! ha ha. i'd seen them before and been pretty unimpressed (seriously, who plays skatepunk?!) but friday was hella fun and i was impressed if for no other reason than it's obvious how much fun they're having.

saturday came and meant i got to sleep in a little. a little...and then i spent the afternoon fabric shopping with daniela for the show. i LOVE her. seriously. i hope we get to be friends when we aren't working together anymore.

saturday was also nick's birthday. nick is hands-down without a doubt one of my favourite people ever. he's kind, generous, hilarious, the perfect amount of cynical and is always around with a shoulder to cry on or a big hug. he's supportive, creative, insanely literate and smart, articulate, cute...jesus, i could on forever. basically, i fucking love him.

the point is is that OBVIOUSLY i was totally stoked for the debauchery that would invariably take place.




here are some of the debaucherous highlights:
(that i can remember...i consumed a copious of amount of intoxicants)

-hockey and weed
-boy boobs flashed on jasper ave.
(can i just interject and say here that i was waaaaaaaaaaaaay too high for all the fucking post-game honking. it was way too over stimulating...)
-a game of 'i've never...' that ended in the consumption of a LOT of martini's
-me stripping on the dance floor.
-a lot of teasing about showing off my piercing.
-a HOT YOUNG PIERCED PENIS for me and shannon!!
-my tits being flashed all over jasper ave.
-a lot of dance floor make-outs.
-nick undoing my pants on the dance floor promising me that no one would see so i should really show off my piercing. (the funniest part? i was this close to actually doing it)

did i mention that this really hot boy showed me and shannon his cock at halo?!

at the end of the night i was fucking tired but it was so fun and i didn't puke despite how much i drank. my friends are good kissers! ;)



maya took the pictures of my drunk ass...

now, usually hangover sundays involve me going for breakfast and/or sitting around in as little clothes as appropriate for the company i'm with and smoking weed to 'take the edge off'...ha ha. i chose a different route for this past hangover sunday.




fuck yes! what a great way to spend a couple of hours on a sunday afternoon. good friends. good music. warm living room. eli, esq.,jr., westfalia, and i am a liar are all seriously fucking badass. i hope these caterpillar shows happen again and again and again...how fun! make it happen, eli! :D

the point of all of this was just to remember what a fucking killer weekend i am and how lucky i am to have such amazing friends. thanks amazing friends, for making my life fun and full of love.

hugs, kisses and sweet dreams!

xo xo michelle.
