Abstract Life

This past week has been crazy, fun, and busy! May 4th was, of coarse, filled with star wars! I gave away two screen prints, which I need to ship out, and that night we watched star wars episode 1, skipped 2 and 3 for obvious reasons, watched 4 and started watching 5 but it started skipping so bad we couldn't finish it and I fell asleep. Haha Matt Lanke brought over his light saber and storm trooper helmet. We def had fun with those. We also made a couple of pizza's. Needless to say, it was a great day and night.

The next day was cinco de mayo! We obviously had to go out and eat some Mexican food and have margarita's. The wait was ridiculous but well worth it. Afterwards I went over to Molly's and we watched the big lebowski, great movie by the way. After the movie I went over to my friend Kaci's and hung out with her and Jake. She had a party at her house for cinco de mayo and a friend of hers' birthday. The party was over by the time I showed up, so I mostly just went to hang out.

I was really looking forward to the weekend cause I had a lot planned. Friday when I got into town my friends were playing a show at murphy's downtown. Their band is Capgun and they are incredible. The show was a lot of fun and I got to hang out with some friends I haven't seen in forever. After the show we went to go get some food at Perkins. It was a ton of food and absolutely delicious! The next day I went with my dad to a small car show and farmers market that they have in Hernando. It was pretty cool. I got some awesome salsa, peanut butter and chocolate fudge and saw some pretty nice cars and one cool rat rod. Haha It started to rain so my dad and I left and stopped by an awesome place called Happy Daze to get some lunch. As always they make great food! Their hamburgers are really good! For dinner my mom and I got Chinese take out and ate dinner at the house. That night was electrocity. It was my first time going to the new venue at newby's. While it's a lot bigger and somewhat nicer, the people who run it and the rent a cops are complete assholes. Regardless of them, the show was awesome! Great beats as always, fake blood was sprayed into the crowd and I had fun dancing! Two nights in a row I didn't get home till 3 in the morning.

I think those two days did me in cause I spent all day Sunday feeling sick. We went out to eat Mexican for mother's day with my brother and his family. I didn't feel good so all I got was rice and I'm glad too cause I got sick on the drive home and had to pull over.

Yesterday, I went and picked up my medicine and all the stuff for us to screen print with came in. We went to set the screens up at the art department and decided to throw a football around while we waited for Kaci to get off work. We were gonna go running but decided ordering pizza and watching the newest episode of Dr. Who was a way better plan. Later we went up to the studio to screen print and spent all night up there. I stayed till only 3 but Jake stayed working till 6 in the morning. All the posters came out great though and I was really pleased with mine. All that's left to do to them is trim them down a bit.

This Friday I'm going back up to Memphis to pick up a part for a friend and go to a business meeting but I have to drive back that night cause the farmers market is Saturday morning. It's gonna be interesting.
Check back later in the week for more updates! Thanks for the support!
