I went to Jugville *giggle*

Sit back, have some nachos with cheese. It's time for a long story. :-)


Friday


Friday night I met Dragonflies for a drink on my way through Milwaukee. It was her birthday, so we had extra reasons to celebrate. I had a nice, albiet short, chat with her. She gave me two cupcakes and said I had to share with Breezy. *pouty face*


I then hit the ferry terminal. The high speed Lake Michigan Ferry was the first of its kind...not sure if it is anymore. It's about two years old now. It has very ample seating and observation areas. It made the trip in 2.5 hours. Had I gone around Chicago it would've been about 6 hours. This was much better.

Breezy picked me up at the ferry and we headed back to her new digs with the new man. He wasn't very chatty when we got there because he fell asleep on the couch. :-) I changed into my jammies and insited on having a glass of Breezy Slush. *burp*

Saturday

Breezygirl was in a wedding on Saturday...in Jugville...at The Shack. She looked so grown up as a junior bridesmaid! Everyone commented she was getting taller than Breezy. *snort* BTW, Breezy's ex? Looks about 25. I think she robbed the cradle on that one. :-)

Ok, so The Shack was actually a nice place. But it was in Jugville. *snort* And in case you forget, they remind you that you are in the good ol' US of A.

Oh, I should probably give Bravie a PSA on Breezy's driving: Bring a copy of directions with you. She isn't very good at remembering. :-)

We stopped at a fruit stand on the way home so I could buy some Michigan cherries and blueberries to take home. YUM! We headed back home to drink more Breezy Slush. Wheeeeeee! Then I was kind of high maintenance and wanted to go check out the Summer Celebration grounds early. There was a tiki bar area I wanted to check out.

We made sure we looked extra hot (like we need to try *hair flip*), just in case JD wanted to take us on tour with him.

See, Breezy put in curlers and everything:

Oh fine...I'll be nice and save it for later...blackmail. :-)

So it was off to Summer Celebration and INXS!!!!!!!!! We checked out the tiki bar, which had some strange country/bluesy singing man. It was a little strange. So we headed back to the grounds to hear the opening act, Four Finger Five. We realized we could ditch our seats and go stand up front through the whole concert, so I whined until we did. :-) We were situation next to Four Finger Five's lead singer's dad. Breezy made friends with the dad. And we knew he'd leave when the openers were over, so that also meant we could scoot forward another row. Because Glow would want us to have good seats, we moved up to second row. :-) Breezy is good at elbowing her way into things. The people liked being behind us because she was short. Really, they told me that when she went to the bathroom. *snort*


Literally, this was the best time I'd ever had at a concert. We were so close, the music was so good, and my friend Breezy was by my side (<---look, that's the name of an INXS song).
Here's how close we were (I know, he needs a haircut..but his eyes make up for it):









And this was where JD changed t-shirts on stage. *drool*




See those two heads in front of me in this pic? Yeah, that was littleblondebitchymom and her five year old daughter. He son, close to the same age) was standing in front of her, pressed against the metal fence. Because that's where it's safe for kids during a concert. A fight broke out right behind us between some guys and a few girls. A girl got punched by a guy. Yeah, smart move keeping your small children there, lady. And I'm sure their eardrums are fine. *rolls eyes* Did I mention they got guitar picks and a drumstick? And the mom kept rocking her daughter and hitting Breezy. *whack*


Breezy and I at the concert, managing to have a good time, despite littleblondebitchymom (look! We had beads! I'd be happy to give them to JD):


My JD moments:

I got a cup. He passed out cups to pour champagne into. I got a cup, but he got a little excited with the champagne and it exploded all over by the time he got to us.

Then, during Afterglow, I was singing along, with my hands clenched by my heart (more out of sheer crowding necessity than feeling the love). He pointed at me and put his hand by his heart. *dreamy sigh*

After the awesome concert, Breezy took me to a few bars. Unfortunately, at the last bar, I got a queasy stomach and couldn't even drink soda. Breezy drank enough for BOTH of us, though. I got up in the morning and her pants were in the living room. Why? *HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURL* Yep, she puked.


Sunday

She was NOT in good condition the next morning. She meditated in the backseat while her bf drove me to the ferry. I imagine yesterday afternoon made for a long day. :-)

*smooch* to Breezy for showing me an awesome time and sharing my best INXS memories with me.
