So yesterday was completely crazy. I cannot believe how things turned out. First, Claire and I woke up and found out there was a peace march at 2 p.m. We made some shirts that said "Peace" and "End War Now!"
We went to the march and ended up sending some postcards to George W which I'm sure he won't get or read. There was 2,000 people doing the same thing, so it felt pretty cool.
Then Claire's dad called and told her about the dance in the street in St. Paul, which happens after the first Prairie Home Companion broadcast every year. It's basically a bunch of older people dancing old-school, like waltzing and polkaing and lindy hopping. It was cool music though.... But then we got bored and left to get some money and food.
We came back and there was a really rocking band, Jack Knife and the Sharps, playing. They played a song that was in Pulp Fiction, the one when they enter Jack Rabbit Slim's... it was amazing. And the guy playing bass was super hot... I mean way outta my league. Well, Claire wanted a cigarette and she saw the drummer, who was also hot, smoking onstage. So we waited by the offstage for them to get done. (Remember, this was in the streets so it wasn't like there was barricades and stuff. We waited just by the stairs to the stage.)
So Claire gets cold feet and is like "No no... he'd think I was a stupid groupie girl if I asked him for a cigarette." And I was trying to convince her that the worst they can say is no... so she was like ok I'll do it. We turn around and they were standing right behind us! They came over to talk to US! It was amazing.
So we shoot the breeze for a while and they were like hey do you wanna come back and chill with us for a while at my place? And of course we were like hell yeah! So we got directions from them and headed out.
However, I had promised Matt I would hang out with him that night. So I call him at like 11:45, after I had gotten stoned with the guys and Claire was drunk, and get directions to his place. I think he was a little pissy or something, not because I was with guys or anything, but he had a shitty day. Anyways, I really wanted to hang with those boys (Their names were EJ and Johann) so I wasn't in the best mood either. So we just watched a movie and I left to go pick up Claire from the boys' place... and I was all stoned out of my mind while driving. It was SHITTY weather too... bad idea on my part dudes.
But yeah that was my crazy weekend... it was awesome. I will write more later!
With all the love of laundry,
