No. There cannot be a time when a Spanky and a Sparky are in the same place together, and none of them are pets. It's...not possible...too...hilarious...*brain pops*.

I just felt bad that I did decide to drive and that I took everyone with me. I should have just dropped you guys off at the venue and continued looking for a spot. In the end it did work out and I guess that's what counts.

Yeah, you're a terrible person for forcing us to go with you. It would have been totally awesome to drop us off & walk all the way up to the venue by yourself in the dark on a poorly lit street.

I didn't mind at all. We had fun.

OK, so where was I? Yes. Saturday night. So after the show we all meet up at a bar that is supposedly a happening place - well, not this night. It was totally dead. There was literally 1 other group of peeps besides us. But I actually liked that since we could all gather & chat & see & hear eachother. Had some drinks (some had a drink that smoked - fog something or other...) and laughs & took several pics. Ryan (Rickypt) had to run to catch the train, so that kind of sucked. Would've liked more time to get to know him. At 1am, the poor waitress was practically begging the rest of us to leave. So Amber, Jaz & I decide to go back to the gay bar & say goodbye to everyone.

We get there around 1:15am & we're notified that it's last call.

Lamo Cali bars - in Buffalo they're open until 4am. Anyway, we double up like the true drunks that we are & are about halfway through our first beer when they start locking us on the patio again. We chug the rest (well, the boys do, me & Amber try to) and leave.

On the way home, Ry grabs a rag mop that someone has left on the sidewalk. It is here I will mention my confusion at people leaving things on the sidewalk in Cali - clothing, tools, brooms, mops, trash...you name it, we saw it. I don't get it - don't they have Goodwill there? OK, anyway. We decide this mop is the funniest thing we've ever seen. It becomes even funnier when the rag head flies off of it down the sidewalk. We leave the mop pole (later realizing that this was a catostrophic mistake - it would have made a perfect mike stand) and proceed to take turns kicking the mop head down the street. Well, Ry, Amber & I kick it. Jaz attempts, misses & says "I never was any good at sports."

Well, this was the funniest thing I had ever heard. Did I mention that it was about 2am in the middle of a street in Oakland? Totally silent except for me, laughing hysterically at Jaz's little joke. He goes to kick it again. And misses again. Well, I about peed my pants. I didn't, for the record, but I thought I might.

We get to Amber's apt. & Ry's all "hey, let's sing." Oh really? We can sing now? We're not total freaks & you're not afraid anymore? It was at that moment we knew we had him. Sucked into the black hole of our obsession, never to be the same again. We did several performances - group Stand Back, SDMHA mega duet, Jaz & Amber's phenomenal Insider (which was unbelievably good despite both of them doing Stevie's part), Jaz's amazing DTBTIC (Escape from Conshohoken), me & Jaz doing the G&B dance, TISL cluster f*ck, and many many more that I can't remember. Lots of beer & cigs, and me not remembering the beer name Tecate (I kept asking "could you get me a Tostito from the fridge please?") Jaz finally decided he should leave at 3am (for his 6am flight

) and it was just the 3 of us until we finally retire at 6:30am.

Well, forget Ry & my plan to leave by noon. Yeah, we left Amber's at 2:30, promptly stopped at Jack In The Box (which I'd never been to before - and never will again, due to the fact that the food sat in my stomach like a rock for approx. 9 hours afterwards.) When we cross the bay bridge, we realize that we forgot the atlas.

That figures. We just kept going south until we finally found a way onto the Pacific Coast Highway around 5pm. Thank God we did eventually get on, because I saw beauty I didn't think existed in this world. it was amazing. Then it got dark, and we were tired, so we stopped, attempted to eat (still couldn't - stupid JItB) and got the hell off of that dark winding dangerous highway. Got back to Ry's around midnight & passed out until 8am.

The next day Ry drove me to San Diego so my brother & nephew could pick me up. I spent 2 days with them, then flew back to Buffalo on Wednesday.

I'm sure I forgot several details, which may come to me later on. I'm also sure there may be things I left out on purpose, to protect the innocent.

All & all, a great f*cking time. I always love meeting Ledgies & have not been disappointed yet. Sparky - oh, you filthy, naughty cowboy. If you lived closer, this hag would definitely have 2 fags. You are hilarious, and thank you for dinner. I'm so glad I got to meet you in person after all this time - and not just your pit. Deborah - I remember you from Vegas as being so quiet, but you're not really that quiet. Of course, you're not loud & obnoxious like I am, but you are so kind & beautiful. Thank you so much for driving & just being so very sweet. You are a good soul. Thanks for the hair band reminiscing. Ryan - So sorry we couldn't chat more. I didn't have a clue that you were nervous about meeting us, you seemed to fit right in with our immature silliness. Oh, and my Ryan is upset you didn't chat more too - he thinks you're cute

Eliza - You are one cool, classy lady. I'm so happy to have met you, and hope to see you again. Anita - Is it weird that we've only met 3 times but I feel like I've known you forever? Seriously, it feels like I'm seeing a dear old friend whenever we meet up. You are an absolute f*cking riot. You & Sparky should meet & hang out, you'd have eachother on the floor laughing until you couldn't breathe. Jaz - You are a wonderful person, a true gentleman & a superb performer. But you dress better than I do, and your skin is flawless. So kiss my conshohoken!

JK - friends for life now - FO SHO! Amber - I can't thank you enough for letting us stay with you & feeding us & getting us drunk & showing us around. We had so much fun, I can't even describe it. If we lived closer, I know we'd be really great friends. Not that we're not friends, but you know what I mean.

Whever ANY of you guys want to come up to Buffalo & see a show, please let me know! We're only 90 minutes from Toronto too, FYI. I swear to you, there are actually things to see & do here and it would be great to play host. Plus, it's all of your turns to fly your conshohokens across the U.S. to see ME!

Here's seveal pics of us, the show, whatever. None very good, and I hope they still aren't too big since I just spent the last hour on photobucket resizing everything.
