See All the Lights.
Well school is finally over and so is April. Towards the end of April we had absolutely crazy weather. As previously posted but this time it was bad. Several tornados touched down and mainly affected the Alabama area. Thoughts and prayers go out to all the families that lost anyone or anything. My friend Molly is putting together a fundraiser for the victims in smithville, the hardest hit town. In Starkville however many TVA lines were down leaving all of the Starkville area without any power at all.
You don't realize how much you depend on electricity until you're without it. We couldn't even cook anything at first cause every appliance uses electricity. Thank God I love to cook and own a propane grill and charcoal grill. We were hungry so we decided to make some ramen on the propane grill and without electricity we sat around candle light and talked about stuff. Our friend Christian had enough battery power on his computer for us to watch the first episode of the new Dr. Who season. Thanks to twitter we found out that free ice cream was being given out at the cold stone creamery in town cause the power was expected to be out for a couple of days. After that our friend Molly met us up there and then came over to our house for a power out party. Haha We decided that we weren't going to leave our friend Matt Lanke alone, so I decided to go pick him up from his house across town.
The drive there was creepy and awesome. It looked like a ghost town or a town out of a zombie movie. Pitch black. When we got back I cooked BBQ chicken and grilled corn on the charcoal grill. I ran out of propane apparently. Haha It was a fun night filled with laughs, stories and food. It was pretty cool not having technology for a day and night but I sure was happy when it came on early the next morning. I love a/c, what can I say.
The next day was beautiful. Jake and I went to mugshots for lunch and on the way my exhaust broke, making it louder and a deeper tone. I'm fixing it but needless to say, I wasn't worried about it. Haha
On the morning of the royal wedding I accidentally woke up early and decided what the hell, I'll watch it. I was much more excited about the beautiful sunrise so started watching it instead. I then did what I never do and made breakfast. I had toast. Nothing special but for someone that doesn't eat breakfast it was awesome. I went back to bed and woke up later than I wanted to but it was a beautiful day so I decided to go to mugshots to have a couple drinks and found out that there was going to be a foam party at state theater. I decided to go since I've never been and I love dubstep. I got there early to watch the grizzlies game before the show started. It was an awesome game and we won! The show was interesting to say the least. I got soapy, wet and had a good time dancing. The dj's switched and the show got a little bit less awesome, so I decided to cut out early.
The next day consisted of going grocery shopping, where Jake and I got awesome cyan, magenta, and yellow candles on accident and then later that night we went up to the screen printing studio where Molly was working on some napkins for a wedding. We got a little delirious as it got later and started goofing around. There were some interesting pictures and videos made.
Yesterday was a lazy day. We went to blockbuster and got three very awesome movies and had a movie night and found out that after nine and a half years they finally found and killed Bin Laden. So hoorah and that's all I'll say about it. Twitter and Facebook said enough for everyone. No use in going over it again.
I spent today hanging out with my friend Andrew. We went to get some BBQ at the best place in town called Petty's. It's on par, if not better than Memphis BBQ. I'm about to start work on some stuff for this summer and this weekend my friends band is playing at murphy's in Memphis on Friday and then electrocity is having a show at newby's on Saturday. I highly encourage everyone to attend both of these. All the cool people will be there.
Keep checking back for more updates and as always thanks for all the support.
