Time's flyin'...

Hello! I am slightly disturbed by that fact that it has been a real (non-fake/full length/about 30 days) month since my last post. It honestly feels like a couple days...the last few weeks have been a blur. Since the last post I have been in 17 cities, played 29 shows, and more than likely eaten roughly 32 subway sandwiches...AH! We've been on the east side of the country...going through West Virginia, North and South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, New York, and most recently Pennsylvania. I have tonight off (thank Jesus), we are in the process of driving to Grand Rapids MI.

It may interest ya'll to know that I was in Scranton, Pennsylvania (also known as 'The Electric City')...home of The Office. I shook Steve Carell's hand, got to be an extra in the show, and played some wicked dice with Dwight Schrute. It really wasn't anything special, I'm telling you. JOKE. The true story is that I walked past a building on the way to the theater and saw a wicked looking sign atop it powered by electricity (of all things) that said 'The Electric City'. My hotel also had various Office memorabilia, but I don't care about that show so I declined on wasting my hard earned dough. We also got to play a show at Daytona Beach FL. That was neat...though it was a one-nighter (which diminishes enjoyability of everything good about a place). I did take some splendid pics of it though; it was rather pleasing to the eye. Driving thru West Virginia was also pretty cool; I had never seen Appalachia before. 'Twas beautiful!

Despite this crazy schedule, I am managing to stay relatively sane and have been feelin' fine. In regards to the latter, an extremely incredible phenomenon has occurred; I have gained weight. It struck me about a week ago when I tried to put on my skinny jeans (the really stupid skinny ones that fit me well in my emaciated stage...North Parkers know of what I speak) and I could hardly get them on! I have achieved this success through eating terrible food...all the time. I am truly proud of myself. The crazy diet that I did for half a year must have really sorted out my stomach/digesting deficiencies (for I have not been sick at all)! Yus.

Anywho, I cannot conjure up any more writing (or drivel, in reference to the last paragraph) to continue filling this post. Therefore, it's picture time!

Just a few people waiting for my autograph.

I was literally 5 feet from da humans in the audience at this venue!

Rob Cookman (music director/badass) on left. Mark Van Ziegler (funky bass) on right. We were eating some super baller BBQ in Syracuse.

This picture may confuse you, but it is what it looks like. A belgian waffle with meat on it (and cheese and spinach in the middle). NOM NOM NOM (remember what I said about gaining weight?)! 




This pic and the three above it are from Daytona Beach FL. Very nice.


Alright folks, that's all! Peace!
