Are you restless like me?

My body was built for this dirtbike, it came from the heavens to save us.

Oh, how I miss my dearest Solemite. I remember when I read that they had played their last show already I cried. Yes, I'm a crybaby. Even though it had been 18+ only, I wouldn't have been able to go if I tried. But then they decided to play one last all ages show. It was great. Manda and I made shirts to say goodbye. They loved them. And Aya and Justine were there, and we all danced. And Suburban Legends played, and we danced even more. The guys from Solemite gave us hugs. I hope they do something new soon.

We went to one show out in Pacifica that they played. I swear there were less than 50 people there and everyone was sitting down. We had fun. They sang to us. They had a little donation jar that said "Damn the man, save the Solemite van." Their van had been repossessed. This ska band from Seattle played, too. The guys playing the trumpets and trombones were running around the room a lot. One of them almost hit Crystal with his trombone.

I miss going to Orangepeal.

Back to my crybaby-ness. I cried when I thought the Stellastarr* show was sold out, but my dad bought tickets in person. I cried when we came home from my first Warped Tour show and it was only 3 and we had only seen 4 bands. I cried when last year's Warped sold out and I hadn't got tickets yet. My daddy (I love him) went and bought scalped tickets for my sister and I. I cried when the show I was going to go to with Aya a few weeks ago, The Matches in Oakland, sold out. I can't remember if I cried when Not So Silent Night sold out, I don't think so.

I think this shows that A) I need to start buying tickets right when they go on sale, and B) I need to toughen up.

I also need new pants. I wish I could sew my own jeans. Alas, I'm not nearly skilled enough.

Manda is better, she'll be home tomorrow probably.

Does anyone want some patches? I've got "smile" and "listen." I'm planning on making "look" or "watch" soon. Name some colors and I'll see what I can do. Everyone should have one of my patches. Handmade patches are cool.
