‘am i the only one…’

‘…who loves when you leave your hair down in front of your eyes?’ – barenaked ladies

i don’t feel like saying anything about kiltmas except for the good things about it.
while i know that going was probably not the best decision, i would’ve regretted missing it even more. it was nice seeing my gents and a whole lot of old friends again… and scythian performing twice? would’ve been awesome to have been at  their sunday brunch at the tea room and their evening set the last day of kiltmas, but i sadly couldn’t stay.
leks wore raver goggles both nights… i’m serious. and they played gypsy fiddle… which is, for a lack of a better description, leks fedoryka being really virtuostic while the other three just stand there and look beautiful. oh, and he really puts drama into it. you can catch the performance [here] and see for yourself. mike’s faces make my life. (he’s the sexeh drummer to the left of the screen) i couldn’t stop laughing my arse off at the epic pile of WIN.
also awesome seeing the giant pile of haggis!heads there!
i also ended up at the brew a few times… more than i should’ve…. but i did practice some really good self-control. it was weird being there. i went alone on friday night, but ran into a bunch of people i forgot i was supposed to meet there… because i got lost in my headphones and sipping on a glass of steelworkers’… it is my favorite beer in the world. i never felt so alone before, and that is part of the reason i decided to come back to west chester early. i did manage to divorce myself from the brew enough to hang out at kiltmas though. my self-control was INCREDIBLE, for being at my first legal kiltmas. a few shots of whiskey and a couple glasses of steelworkers’. that’s it. i was really good.

while hanging around kiltmas, i ended up buying myself a new sgian dubh, a ceremonial dagger. i’m in love with the thing! but, more importantly… i found a cute little charm walking around the craft tents that i just *had* to get for someone special to me. :-)
when i got back, she was waiting for me. and i left allentown around 12.30am, so you could only imagine what time i got here. it was insanely late.
and this is what i have to say about that beautiful one…: <3.
that is all.
well… and that she’s actually *heard* of the slightly obscure bands and musicians that i’ve been in lust with for a while. :-)

but yeaaaa… i don’t know/care what else to write.

a short fazed hovel.

i am convinced that yesterday did not happen.

i can’t even begin to convince myself otherwise. it was too perfect and epic a day to have been real. more…
