you know what's fucked up?

going to a concert that makes you feel like a kid again and then having to go to work the next day. it's so not fair. it just makes you feel like shit. haha...woooo, enjoying life? ::brick to the head:: how do you feel now? maybe i should look at it the other way around, but i don't want to, so i don't have to. hey, when you're young, you get to throw tantrums and it's OK!!!

anyways, to tell the actual story; me and my bandmates went to see the aquabats and assorted jelly beans last night. ska always makes me feel young and energized, even if it is silly. but the aquabats make me feel like i've reclaimed the youth i lost at such an early age. and i feel great. it's a treat. and here's what's crazy. those guys get to jump around stage in superhero costumes, playing great music and fighting evil. and they are older than me! and the cool thing about being in that band, is you can go back anytime. last night, chainsaw came back on guitar and catboy came back on trumpet. crazy! i don't know how those guys do it. they are really technically sound too. plus! they fought powdered milk man last night. they played a lot of their most awesome catalog, including: "the cat with two heads", "super rad", "powdered milk man", "pool party", "look at me(i'm a winner)", "magic chicken"(they never play this anymore), and "cd repoman". i had an awesome time and so did my best friends.

oh, and after a five year or so hiatus, assorted jelly beans is back! they played really well. they didn't play a lot of my favorites, but they did have a lot of energy and i hope they stick around for awhile longer. there is no band like ajb.

also, between bands and whatnot, me and my best friends worked out some band stuff over beers. maybe now we can move forward.

oh hey, i also got to see my nieces yesterday for a short time. we played on a swingset. it was fun.

okay, now onto a late night dinner and movie.
