Well hello there. . .
Oct. 20th, 2025 08:13 pmTrying to make journaling a part of my new daily routine. We'll see how it works out lol.
So. Lots to tell you, though. On October 8 2025, I met two longtime online friends, Jojo and Zan. I was nervous but it was like, yeah, they are exactly how they are online and I was very happy with the experience. Then we all went and saw Sleep Token! And it was glorious. I was tired as hell from walking so much earlier, but man, I was so glad I got to go. Our accommodations weren't great (i.e. constantly heard the trolley/train, mysterious stains on the carpet, dark areas in the bathtub area, and so on) and Jojo and Zan had it worse. They decided to leave Thursday afternoon instead of staying another night. Meanwhile, I was exhausted but stayed through until Saturday morning because I had a ticket to see two other bands I listen to on Friday night. I will get to that experience lol.
The only downside of being a fan of a band like Sleep Token is that if I wanted to get band merch, such as a tour tshirt, it was insane to do so. I waited as long as I could for the outside merch stand, but as I wanted a little bit of time with Jojo and Zan, I left before getting to it. It was more important to meet up with my friends, then stay standing in line. (Which, I ran into someone I stood next to in line and she said it was only another 30 minutes and she got merch, and I KNEW that might be the case but whatever, I made my decision). And don't even talk about after the concert lol. My legs hurt from walking and I just wanted to get back to the hotel (barely a hotel, more like Motel 3 as Jojo put it lol).
