Tonight was such an amazing night. I don’t know where to begin; I guess from the top will do.

4:00PM. I left to go get Jenn, since this was our big event. Crocodile Rock Cafe, the place a few blocks from where my church is, happened to be the it place of the night. LFO‘s huge reunion tour (with Rookie of the Year, Go Crash Audio, Kiernan McMullan and Dime Store Profit) was a blast. It was falling in love over and over again.

5:00PM. We arrive and park outside Croc Rock. I’ve never been there, so we’re wandering around just taking it easy. Found the tour bus and preggo van 🙂 Jenn bought a drink and we sat around for a while, spotting people with tags and passes the entire time. While we were waiting for the doors to open, we could hear some of them playing. Every Other Time, of course, was one of the songs (heart that one up in Scranton too, actually).   We jammed along upstairs, of course.

6:00PM. The doors open. I go to claim my ticket. I paid for general admission, but the paper said VIP. Hot hell I wish I had VIP. I didn’t want to say much incase I could get away with VIP or even Meet and Greet, but I wasn’t going to lie to the guy, either. It was eventually settled, so whatever. We got standing room right up front- I’m not complaining.  Dime Store Profit was the first to go, followed by Kiernan McMullan, Go Crash Audio and then Rookie of the Year.  They were all pretty great, I must say.

9:30PM. After a bit of a break from Rookie, LFO make their appearance. Rich Cronin, Devin Lima and Brad Fuschetti (and hey, I can tell who is who for defs, now!) It was a great line up of 14 songs; 3x3x3x2x2x1. That last song of course being Summer Girl 😀

Rich did such a great job after all he’s been through. Got a piece of his solo career. Devin did a Cadbury piece too (then again they were playing in the back :P). Love them, but my personal favorite has to go to Brad. *mumbles*omg did you see that eye contact. he was totally looking at me *swooooon* ahahaha [/end].  He’s really quite something though. We had this whole peace love thing going on in the beginning. Think he recognized me as the creep from Scranton? Where I wanted to just call out NICE PANTS with those True Religions again (and some Calvins under there. oh my) I can only hope.

Did I mention he sweat on me (almost any other time, that would have been gross)? How about when he took my hand.  OR WHEN JENN SLIPPED HIM HER NUMBER!  That’s a dream and a half (but I’d love to see that phone ring).

Brad, if you happen to catch this entry here too, can we be friends?

After the show, I picked up my share of merch and Jenn got her shirt/bra/boobs signed. It was pretty exciting. Got to meet some of the guys (they’re wonderful).

I’ll have to put up pictures later (there’s quite the bunch), but the show was absolutely amazing. I wish my budget let me room for Meet and Greet for both Jenn and I; then we could all laugh about my crazy adventure, the super sexy pants and little things like that. PS. I’ve never been into twitter more than I am now (because of them). FOLLOW ME 🙂

12:00AM.  The entire ride back was just riding this massive high. I still can’t believe I went to that show. I saw LFO. Did you? As Jenn was stepping out of the car, it hit me. Dave is leaving today! The highest high and suddenly the lowest low. I’m so manic depressive (or are they calling it bi-polar…i don’t remember which is more technical).  That was a huge bummer, but I’ll live. I get back to the house, grab some food, chill a bit.

[edit] Wow. I’m a complete dumbass. Super apologies to Brad Fischetti. [/edit]

Wow. The weekend and YESTERDAY! Let me tell you.

I’ve been mushing with Dave. The day after the last post, I actually got to squeeze myself into this SUPER busy schedule. Story! (Not that this really isn’t a nice big story session anyway). Anyway. Dave’s moving across state on the 22nd of July. It’s for school, so it’s kinda important (why couldn’t Philly accept him u_u then he could be here, with me XD ).  I’ve known this pretty much since I met him, but that day draws awful near.  Because he’s leaving so soon, everyone else that’s known him first (not fair) already has plans with him before he has to leave.

So anyway, I saw him Tuesday the 14th. We went to Core Creek Park, and it was beautiful. He’s pretty too ^^ We walked around and chilled for a few hours, but then he had to go off and meet his sister (which I kinda distracted him from), but I didn’t want him to go. Seems like for good reason too. I’m not gonna get to see him before he leaves. Once he’s out there, that’s a 6-8 hour drive if I wanted to (but will definitely do sometime). But also, once he’s out there, he’s gonna be busy with other things u_u FML…Every time one of these things happens, I keep telling him how lucky he is that I like him (otherwise it just wouldn’t fly) but really…I’M the lucky one here <3

Yesterday, I finally decided to run up to Scranton to visit Lenny 🙂 I adore that boy because he’s so gay and wonderful. We went to Nay Aug Park (yay parks!) and walked around there a bit.  We took this au naturale path/stairs down to the big rocks by the water. I slipped and fell on my ass going down the steps. Hilarious when everyone saw. There was a giant river-creek thing going on, and there was people out past the railing, so we hopped the fence and decided to adventure.  Ran into a few couples cuddling or straddling-sucking face.  Besides that, it was gorgeous. Massive rocks and small little waterfall. We rock-hopped for a while and even found some coal to write our names on this one rock (it’s better than all the graffiti that was there).

We hopped for a while thinking we could find civilization at some point…Nope. We got to a point and I had to pee. So we figured we’d turn around because we knew there was a way back that way.

After that, we went to meet up with his friend Melissa.  As we’re driving, we go by the one bar, Tink’s. There’s a giant tour bus outside and he looks at me and says, “OMG, LFO is playing at TINK’S tonight!” I’m thinking, wait. LFO? The Lyte Funky Ones? And it was crazy. They were 1 way streets, so we kept going, and go by Rite-Aid.  BRAD FISCHETTI was walking in. Lenny‘s freaking out saying how he’s pretty sure LFO just walked into Rite-Aid. Of course we hit all the red lights, but eventually get around and park.  We’re rushing to get there, but this nice couple stops us to ask for a picture. But they asked if we were in a rush, and we explained the thing. The girl’s boyfriend was like, “LFO? Isn’t that the band from the 90s?” It was great. We took the picture and then started walking around. BRAD was walking around with 2 chicks (he had his stage pass on, so it’s kinda obv.)

Lenny and I walked around to Tink’s and kinda loitered for a while. Called some people, sent some txts, and took some pictures! Haha. We were totally creeping. But I have the boys in some creeping paparazzi shots. Lots of back shots, but it got too weird for me to try and be face to face while taking pictures of these guys. They have big bouncer body guards. We took a break and met up with Melissa and got our drinks.  Then we proceeded to walk back to Tink’s and hang outside the courthouse and watch. Lame bitches were behind us, so my photo creeping wasn’t as good (they were judging me, and I didn’t like that) but at one point BRAD was 2 feet from us, sitting on the same long bench row. He was wearing True Religion jeans. Pretty sexy.

We eventually left…eventually. I took Lenny back since he had dinner plans, and I went home to Jenn‘s. We hung out for some odd hours and I went home.  Pretty cool day, I must say. OH! And LFO is gonna be back up in the area tomorrow- might do some more creeping around, unless I feel like paying 10 bucks to see the show. Hah
