in the PITT

Pittsburgh today. Many apologies for not updating the past two days, I've been sick with a sinus infection courtesy of the lovely Justin Richards. So the past few days haven't been so fun for me. Hmm. Dekalb was good, a group of fans who were at the Chicago show two days before came and they were the bomb. I love meeting nice people. The turn out was well and stuff. It was Carrissa's last day (Dylon's girlfriend), so that was a bummer. We all caravaned to Michigan and slept in a parking lot, woke up and everyone ate at a wafflehouse except I stayed sleeping. (This was the day I woke up sick to Nick coming in the RV and shaking me awake then running out.) We then went to ARRTM's hotel and showered and stuff, then to the venue to load in. Then Nick, Bam, Halvo, Loren, Tex and I went to this place called Menna's that had the best things ever there called DUBS. They're like wraps/burritos but with really good straight up american food in them, like chicken and cheese and potatoes and all that good stuff. Mac's bar sucks, I hate the venue, you can smoke inside and even though I'm a smoker I can't take sitting in a room FULL OF smoke, especially sick. I took a nap on Dylon for the better part of the night and then we went to get dubs again after the show, where some girls followed us. Apparently, they follow Brighten EVERYTIME they're in town, which is kind of really gay. It was awkward, we went to the hotel and they followed us there and Tex wouldn't tell them to leave so he let them into the hotel but didnt give them the room number or something, Idk, it was an annoyance to say the least, and a few people were pissed. I slept in an armchair with an ottoman and slept pretty well. Woke up to get ready and Austin was BLOWDRYING his DANK shoes that smelled like fucking throw up, and of course me, with a SINUS INFECTION was the first one to smell them, thats how bad they were ahhahaha. We all got up and I rode with Brighten to Akron, OH. We stopped at a Panera and ate, and Justin said the reason they don't tour with girls was because "I could if I wanted to" LMAO. "Hands in the sky, Pumpkin Pie." I slept on Justin's bench the entire way there and he may or may not have been a little bummed on it. Akron had a good turn out, I slung a lot of stuff, packed up and left. I didn't stay with Brighten and Rocket and I get a barrage of texts from Tex hitting on me after he took probably 2 sips of a 40, that was funny. There were some band girls namedropping bands left and right I guess and they went to the hotel except one of them was pregnant with someone from sing it louds baby or some shit? I don't know it was bizzarre. The other one was cool though. We ended up driving a portion of the night and then I had an asthma attack which was really scary so we stopped to get me some meds for my cough and then realized we had interwebs so I streamed the latest entourage and went to bed. We're in Pittsburgh right now and I'm not feeling too hot. It's freezing here. I'm NOT stoked to sling at extreme wheelz because it's going to be soooo fucking cold there, but I am pumped to see Cara. I'm kind of glad we're finally on the East Coast and I get to see a lot of people whom I love and miss on the 24th and 25th :) Text me if you need a list spot or if you wanna know what you can bring me (home made pasta and garlic bread please. and 40s)

Alriiiighty tighty. I'm gonna peace the fuck outta this bitch, but as always, here are a few pictures and a funny ass video we took the other morning in the hotel.
