We were about 7 rows back in the orchestra, on one of the side aisles...pretty good seats!
I put the TP on the roll. She's hardly ever here, and it'd punish me more than her/them.

i'm really completely lost. are you bItching about TP whores?
You go so frequently and you couldn't convince your parents to go any of the four days you could've??? Butthead. Photos, wuh? (Nic, did you see the BWW HH thread?)
TAKE THE TP OFF THE ROLL WHEN YOU GO TO SLEEP! I hate her, I really do, and she hasn't even done anything to me.
ETA: Nic's got a sociopathic passive-aggressive roommate, Beks.

oh come onnn. you know all my problems i ran into, theres no use in repeating them. i literally planned that entire week around those days i had off.
photos, wuh!
Yet I'm over here and you're still there and - the worst part - not even graced with my presence. You must be crying yourself to sleep.
Oh yeah, photos. Right. I've gotta upload them onto PhotoBucket because I told Undi I'd send them her way as well.
Was there anything of interest on the HH thread. I kind of skimmed, but there didn't seem to be a whole lot of interest. You're sending out the pix right? And nobody's posting them, correct?!
Oooh, I think they're doing a bit about Bono and Dubya on VH1's Best Week Ever. Could be amusing.

i'm going to SLEEP... ill see them tomorrow. i'll get on my grandpa's computer. he has AIM, also.
talk to you later.
Night, Beka.
'Night Beka. (Who sleep at 11:30? Wimp.)
Are you suuuure you don't want me posting your photo publicly? I sent them to Ellie a couple of days ago, but either blacked out my face or put a big photo of a cow on top. Unfortunately, she didn't notice the difference.
(I'll send you this one pic where my face is ridiculously red. Like, really, really, ridiculously red. Highlighted by the fact that everyone else looks downright pasty next to me. It's awful.)
You were indeed very red...and I know I am indeed, very white! So I'm sure the contrast would be ridiculous.
Are you going to e-mail me the pix? And the U2 pix? I'm probably not going to have mine together until Thanksgiving, but I'll send you some of the decent ones once I get them together.
ETA: 10/8 is up on eBay, so hopefully it'll pop up on interference sometime soon!
Your U2 pics will be infinitely better than mine, but I'll send you a few of the not-worst ones from the bunch. (They're really quite microscopic - more because of the camera than our proximity to them - but a memento's a memento!)
I'll e-mail you the U2 and trip pics but I'll send you PhotoBucket links to BWW HH that I'll be sending everyone. Once I get around to it. Which will be after Dateline.
Cool!
Don't get your hopes up for the pix from my camera. If they're already kind of blurry on the 1 sq inch viewing screen, they're probably going to be pretty crap blown up to 4x6/5x7. My friend from school ended up being on the rail right where Bono steps into the crowd (during Electric Co?) Apparently he was so close he was able to touch Bono's leg. How unfair!!! Booo! I think he said he took some pix too, so maybe some of his will be decent.
Holy mother of God, I've got 5 l*w s****l applications due on November 1 and I haven't started a single one. And November 1 is, like, one business week away. Jesus H. Christ. What the F*CK?? And my freakin' reference letters are going to get there before my applications are! And I didn't realize my transcripts were due at the same time and not on February 1, and they have to be mailed directly from my alma mater. Holy F*CK. I'm so screwed. I could vomit. I really could. (Unfortunately, my digestive system has decided to go the other way. As in Spelling Bee, "It was like there was a race out of my tooshie and everyone was invited.")
You had some clear photos, right? It seemed like you got some pretty good ones when you zoomed in like a mofo! (Ah, Mofo...one song that would've been cool to hear, even though that was never gonna happen.) What time did you say your friend lined up? I was on the phone with this guy from Toronto who might be buying my Vegas tickets, and he said he had GA on 10/8 and 10/10 (he paid $50 and $100, respectively!), and he lined up at 7am each time and was up at the rail. I was like, didn't it piss you off to be waiting that long knowing you could've been fourth from the rail and shown up at 8pm? And he's all, no, to get a rail to lean on, it's all worth it. (I think waiting outside for 13 hours would make 3 hours of rail-leaning SO not worth it, but that's just me.)
He had to go from work, so he didn't get there until quarter of 7(PM!)!!! I definitely think after watching the GA goings on, if (by some miracle) I snagged some for November, I wouldn't bother showing up until 4 at the earliest.
Ok, you kept bugging me last week about my WS paper, so now it's my turn! Get going! November 1st is RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER! YOU CAN DO IT!!! GO! GO! GOOOO!
Holy crap, 6:45 and at the rail??? That's insane. I suppose it makes sense - didn't we see that at, like, 8:45, the crowd was not even 5-deep on the sides? (Poor Adam and Edge.)
I've now got 3 offers for my U2 tickets, and not a single person has paid. And without payment, I don't know if they'll back out at the last minute. Including one guy from Scotland, who's ready to pay now, but wants me to send directly to Scotland, which will cost an additional $40 by Express mail. God.
My boss at the pharmacy has apparently been telling everyone how much she's looking forward to me leaving next month. I hate her. And now two people have quit and they've gone through 3 replacements who've all been fired within days of starting, and she's actually giving me shifts now out of desperation while still bitching about me behind my back.
It's like The Office without the humour.
Oh! And you probably already know this, but Franz Ferdinand is the SNL guest this week. I kept meaning to tell you but I figured you already knew. Woohoo!
haven't been on this thread in a while, but the board is pretty slow.
so yeah.
have you considered stabing your boss in the back with a letter opener?
just a though.
I haven't contemplated a letter opener, but the forced consumption of several household products? Yes.
i hear Comet is rawther nice
You know in Kill Bill, when Uma gets crazy-mad and the red lights start flashing and the siren goes off? That's seriously what goes through my head when I see her. Homicidal lust.
that's.... hot...ish.
I just got a F*CKing speeding ticket tonight! My first one ever! It was almost a traumatic experience. It was the middle of the night and there were, like, NO cars on the road except for a slow van going 50kph (=30mph) and a white car going WAY faster than me. So I pass the slow van and almost catch up to the white car, and I'm at 85kph(=52mph) and it turns out the F*CKing van is an unmarked police car, that of COURSE had to wait until I reached the peak speed I'd ever go, and then ding me on it. F*CK. F*CK. $138 ticket. F*CK!!!
I just changed the title of the thread to "The last page is safe, #1Elphie, COME BAAACK!" and she never responded.
I'm still shaking from that speeding ticket. Lights flashing behind me in the pitch black, and that F*CKing white car pulled over for a bit, then realized he could get away without the cop car getting his licence since I was in between the two vehicles, and zoomed around the closest corner. F*CK!
Tiff, I'm so sorry to hear about your speeding ticket! That's one of the perks of not driving very often (living in the city) whenever I do drive, I'm always super careful about stuff like that. But it's so damn tempting late at night on an empty road. How SH*Tty of that cop!!!
To cheer you up...someone posted the last of our MSG shows!

Seriously, the benefit of living in New York is...who drives?? And it's so congested with cars that I'd bet more people get parking tickets than speeding tickets in the city! ARGH! It just pisses me off that the road was nearly empty and that F*CKing white car was going WAY faster than me, pulled over, and then puttered away. And the cop (who was actually quite nice) accused me of tailgating him (I suppose everyone's definition of tailgating is different - I don't think I was that close behind him, seeing as I was planning on passing him!) and I was so stunned that I was actually getting a ticket that I didn't even bother defending myself. He said giving me a $138 ticket was a "gift" since I'd had no other driving violations, and that if I'd been going 6kph higher, I'd be looking at over $300. Uh...thanks? This F*CKing ticket STILL costs me almost as much as my Tiffany pendant, and I had to budget like a MOFO for that. F*CK!!
Thanks for the link. Trying to download Disc 1 right now. How's the audio quality?
Yeah, that's pretty bogus, Tiff. I think that if you've never had any other speeding violations/warnings/etc, that 90% of the time, they'd let you go w/ a warning. I'm sorry!
10/8 seems to be pretty good. I haven't really listened to it, other than WGRYWH, which I tacked onto an acoustic compilation thing I've been making. It was maybe a smidge low, volume-wise, but it seems pretty good!
