If You Understood, You Would Understand

So you may have seen this story already if you visited here, but I want to give you the view from my side.

Tuesday I was just sitting there minding my own business when I get a text from jeanette concerning the Anberlin/All American Rejects/Taking Back Sunday show she was attending. I got a picture message from her to tease me about the same show I will (hopefully) be attending at the end of this month. Some time later she sends me a text saying "Guess who I am talking to?" to which I reply "If you say Adam Lazarra, I'm going to punch you in the face."

Explanation: Adam Lazarra is the lead singer of my favorite band, Taking Back Sunday. He, along with the likes of Chris Martin, Johnny Depp, The Rock, is the kind of person that if I were to ever meet I would be speechless. The "punching in the face" was not meant to be literal, just a show of jealousy.

Her reaction was "haha, no Anberlin." I told her to tell them they are amazing, she said "will do" and I thought that was the end of it.

Until a few minutes later when she TELLS me she is going to call me in 30 minutes. Sure enough, some time later I get a phone call.

Me: "hello?"

(commotion in background)

jeanette: "Hey, hold on a second" (to somebody else: "here, talk to my friend")

voice gets on the phone: "Hey, don't punch her in the face, that's mean. And besides, she is more clever than you as most women are" then at some point the voice said goodbye.

While those may not have been the exact words (it all happened so fast), that voice belonged to Adam Lazarra, and my reaction was to stand there in shock.

Turns out, he also said to her that if I were to punch her, they would just double team me afterward. I'm not gonna lie, it sounded pretty enticing.

I would like to publicly thank jeanette for making that happen. That was 7 seconds of my life that I will never forget.

In other news:

*I would like to ask for the blogosphere's forgiveness in my absence. Not in blogs, but of comments. Some of my favorites have been posting (looking at you Lisa, Tennyson) but for various reasons I just haven't been able to sit down long enough. That will come eventually, I promise.

*As I am typing this, I am getting ready to take a day trip to Troy. Jme will be visited and I am pretty much looking forward to it as the second highlight of my week. But I will be back in time to watch yesterday's Ruins, and my Thursday night line-up of The Office and the greatest new show ever: Community.

*I joined a group on facebook called "I am..." and its basically phrases that our going to go in our yearbook. There were some basic ones like "I AM an Auburn Tiger and LOVE it!!!!" and some like "I am one of 87,451 who is in love with Auburn rain or shine, win or lose!!!" There were also some funny ones such as "I am in a glass case of emotion!"

Mine?

"I am Jack's smirking revenge. I am someone whose name you will see in a magazine one day. I am a spreader of music at WEGL. And (if) I am just bad news, then you're a liar."

sidenote: just found out while checking that someone "liked" it and another commented on it, liking the inside references. Nice.

*I haven't posted any pics in a while, but we took some during bowling the other week. If you are wondering what my friend is wearing, it was the Wednesday before Halloween and she was a bag of jelly beans. She one second place in the costume contest (she lost to a slutty pirate). So pics is how I will end this...






Bonus points: For those of you who have been keeping up with my blogs for a while, BOTH of these girls have been mentioned before.

Random lyric of the day:

My inarticulate store bought hangover hobby kit
It talks, and it says, "You,are, you are so cool."
"Scissor shaped across the bed, you are red, violent red."
You hollow out my hungry eyes
You hollow out my hungry eyes

And we lay, we lay together just not
Too close, too close (How close is close enough?)
We lay, we lay together just not
Too close, too close
