what a week! Last thursday night my bestie Caitlin arrived for 6 days of craziness! She was supposed to get in around 4 but because of flight delays she got in closer to 9. On our way to logan Dan and i stopped at chipolte and got burritos, where dan got hit by a car. seriously. we were walking in and a woman was backing up and HIT HIM. hes fine, but this trip was not off to a great start. but caitlin arrived safe and sound and thats all that matters. we got home and hung out a bit and prepared for what would be a super busy weekend.
Friday was day one of Hanson. they played in Hyannis and we decided to spend the day there. we got lunch and ate it on the beach, where of course it started to rain. Once it started raining we drove around, a lot. We got ice cream @ ben & jerrys, shopped, and drove around some more! We got to the venue about an hour before doors opened and it was crappy and rainy. We hung out in the car, people watched and listened to inappropriate music for a hanson show (coughpopthatpussycough). Once doors were open we ventured in to our seats. The weather was really crappy and the usher at the show were dicks. The show its self was amazing, but the experience was less than great. We were in the 3rd row and hanson always puts on a great show. so we did have a great time. The show ended very early (1030) so we were by no means ready to go home. We were a little on the mad side that the show ended early and we were unable to take pix w/o being super paranoid about our cameras getting taken away. So what do we do? we find the closest dive bar and drink our sorrows away. We went to the 19th hole tavern and drank 3 dollar buds. We had a lot of fun here. there was another fan controlling the jukebox playing hanson songs and a few cape cod gangstahs hitting on us, and the bar tender even gave us a free beer. So the night ended on a high note. We got home after 2am, which btw is the latest ive gotten home in a good while!
Saturday will go down in history as the funnest day of my life. In the morning we dragged sleepy asses out of bed and went to plymouth. We got some lunch and then headed to Cohasset for day 2 of hanson. Due to the festivities of the previous night, i really had zero hopes for tonight. We got there early to do the walk. As we are going to get in line i see a van form my work there. i had a little mini panic attack but then tried to get myself back stage.... fail... but it was ok. i walked with isaac on the walk and talked to him and it was effing amazing. i am nothing if not shameless. After the walk we had a lot of time to kill and we had Seen Robert Schwartzman riding his bike around, so we decided we wanted to go find him. We drove around the town and had kinda given up on finding him. As we are driving around we see the rest of the band walking, so i rolled down my window so caitlin could get a pic. she thought i was going to yell, so she hid. haha. We drive a little further down the street and see another band member by himself, so i DID yell out the window. we were laughing so hard after that, i had to pull over. (hey i told u i have no shame!) After that Caitlin had a stain on her dress and i had blisters on my feet for the one mile barefoot walk so we stopped at the Mobil station down the street. We sat in the car for a bit and tried to make ourselves human again for a few mins when all of then sudden Robbert is walking by with his bike! we grab our camera and walk over to him, introduce ourselves and get a picture. He was very nice and actually had a real conversation with us. At this point we had a few more hours to kill then the show. we got to the show and had 2nd row seats. At this point i thought the night could NOT get any better. But it did! while isaac was sing we made eye contact more than once. it was amazing. Singing a minute without you while looking into isaac hansons eyes while he is smiling was the best feeling in the world. And at that moment i thought nothing could make this night better. Pure bliss. THEN at the end of the show isaac threw his guitar pick. i ligit dove on to the floor to get it, skinned my knee, but i GOT it!!! and THAT concluded the best night of my life. seriously, i havent had so much fun in i cant remember how long.
Sunday we dragged our asses to boston and went on the duck tours, so much fun! then we did the sky walk at the prudential center, which had such amazing views! Then walked all the way from the prudential center to the north end. thanks to caitlin and he patience and stellar map reading skills we made it to dinner at fiore in the north end. the food was AMAZING! i love the north end we ate, drank and laughed. We stayed up way too late that night and had so much fun.
Monday we went shopping in providence and then got tattoos!! Yes i got a hanson tattoo. its really cute. Im glad i did it with caitlin. We have been friends for so long and this is just something so special that we will always have and will always remind us of each other.
Tuesday was caitlins last day. we slept in a bit drove to marshfeild and went to the general store steve Carrel owns and then dropped Caitlin off @ logan. I was sad to see her go but glad for all the memories we made. I couldnt have asked for a better mini vacation and cant wait to hang out with caitlin again.
