Stampede: Day 4

Yes, I survived my first weekend of Stampede. It was a little touch and go there for awhile, but i seem to have come out of it almost unscathed.

So in 28 years of life, there are some of life's little lessons that have somehow passed me by: I still tailgate, I still tell boys i love them before they tell me, and i still think its a good idea to drink heavily in the hot sun.

I went to an infamous party on Saturday at a house known as 'Rock Central' (because bands would use the place as a flop house between tours) which consisted of a bunch of indie and punk rock calgary getting wasted and listening to some wikked bands for some 12 hours in the sun. I wish i could tell you more about the party, but it all kinda blurs together. I drank, I danced, I saw some dude get naked and get on stage, I made some friends...prolly made some enemoes too, I ran around like an idiot, I challenged guys twice my size to drinking contests, and i think i smashed some things.

Then, my pal Kurt showed up and we went to the gay bar (and that honestly is all i can remember about it...getting there.)

Then, at midnight, I went and saw Batman with Jer...and promptly passed out/fell asleep in the theatre. I think i saw Batman's parents dying... Thats it. I hear its an ok movie.

Woke up at 230 pm on Sunday. Drank some gatorade. Hated my life.
