Wow, where to begin? Rotflmao.
So flying is officially not fun anymore. I woke up at 3:45 yesterday morning (my time) and got to the airport for my 5:35am flight. And then fun began. First of all, their computers weren't functioning, so it took forever to get my boarding passes. Finally, got those, and then went upstairs to get screened and get on my way. Now, before I left, I thorougly searched through my laptop bag before I left. Or at least, I thought I did. They pulled me aside, pulled out my pocket knife and told me that could not go with me. God, I was sooo embarrased. But they were cool about it, said it happened a lot, and let me go put it in my checked baggage and be on my way. So, crisis averted.
Got to Atlanta, ran my ass off from Concourse C to A, and got there just in time to get my flight. But wow, what a terrible plane! The electricity kept going out, so there was no light or a/c. Awful in a plane completely full of people, yech. Plus I had a screaming baby next to me. Worst flight ever.
Got to Salt Lake...wow it was wierd seeing Utah again. Caught my flight to Vancouver which was much nicer, and then landed in Canada.
Customs is the biggest clusterfuck ever. I guess it'll be like that anywhere, but it took me about an hour to get through. The guy I talked to was all wary of me...asking me why I was here and who I was seeing, and really didn't like the answers I gave him. I guess it is suspicious when you tell him you're meeting people you met online, and then don't have even the address of where you'll be staying! Haha, but he let me through, so all is well!
Jim and Fluffy picked me up and I got settled in at her place, and then we all went out for lunch / dinner. It was really good, but I have to say that so far, beer is a helluva lot different here. I ordered the house lager...and if that was a lager, then their ale must be water. It was still good though, so no worries. Afterwards we came home, made mixed drinks all evening (Majitos and Malibu Vanilla Cokes) and talked and listened to lots of music.
They played some of their newer recordings. Even being unmastered and without vocals...wow. Oh. My. God. The new music is so insanely good I can't even describe it. I love the demos so much and thought they were good to go, but these new ones are easily 10 times better, literally. I cannot wait for this album now. It's much more powerful and industrial sounding. No one is gonna believe how much better things have gotten.
So, today, we're going to go to a big park/beach, and probably go out for dinner. Then friends are coming over, and more drinks will be had. Sometime I'll manage to take some pictures, lol.
