Magic In The Air

Current destination: Reno, Nevada.


How I love being on tour. I truly do. I've realized my calling. I'm a gypsy. I'm supposed to be on the road... and this realization only makes me more excited to go travelling with Joel in May. I can't wait to explore Europe!

We're actually renting an RV and are gonna drive all over Europe. It's gonna be heaven. I can't put how excited I am about it into words.

But can you feel this magic in the air? It must have been the way you kissed me.

Wedding preparations are more or less sorted - how insane is that!? And you know what? I had almost nothing to do with it! Many thanks to Mom, Missa and Amanda, my soon-to-be mother-in-law! Oh, and to Lindsay and Roxy! I gave them, along with Missa, creative wardrobe control and they have NOT disappointed! I absolutely love the dresses and suits they came up with!

It might seem weird to some that I let other people pick out my bridesmaids dresses and all that... but, honestly, I'm really not that bothered about it. And I knew that Lindsay, Roxy and Missa would do a much better job at it than I would have. And they did!

We're getting married in Laguna Beach on May 15th 2010. How crazy is that? I'm going to be a married woman. Madness.

Impossible

Current destination: Seattle, Washington.

We were in Portland yesterday. Grandma and Grandpa came out to see me, which was awesome. And I met with Dad. I knew I was going to see him, of course, but I was still very nervous and apprehensive about it. Missa was adamant that she didn't want to see him so I told him that it would be better if he didn't come to the show and I met up with him elsewhere. We ended up at a nearby cafe. I took Joel with me for moral support.

He didn't ignore Joel like he did the last time we met up, which I appreciated. He seemed to be making an effort to include him in the conversation. He asked about the wedding and told me that he understood that he couldn't be there. I'm glad he said that because I was worried about it.

He asked about Missa and Serena but not about Mom. Oh well. She doesn't need him to think about her because she's a hundred times the person he'll ever be. She would never beat on someone weaker than her.

It wasn't nearly as awkward this time, which I am thankful for, but I know it's never gonna be the same. And I have to live with that.

Victoria

Current destination: Victoria, BC.

Back to work! Such an awesome break, but I'm super stoked to be back on the road!

I feel completely refreshed and completely ready to kick some ass! It is now apparent to me that my sexual frustration was holding me back... so all I can say is this - prepare to be rocked so hard that your faces melt. It gets wild from here on out.

So wild, in fact, that I've already called the first game of the ongoing Scrabble tournament and I'm going to win it.

Good To Be

Home sweet home!

We're on an eleven-day break at present. We resume tour, in Canada, on the 18th!

I'm stoked to be home. I've missed this little apartment. We've been back since Monday... and we've spent more or less the entire time in the apartment, in bed. Oh well. I have a shopping date with Cadence, Raven and Missa tomorrow!

Missa and Ben broke up. It's been a long time coming. It wasn't working out. It was an amicable decision. I wish him nothing but the best. He's a cool guy.

I miss the gingernuts terribly.

Anyways, I need to go do some yoga or something. I've done like an hour since we've been back... shoot me.

Lubbock

Current destination: Somewhere between Lubbock, TX, and Vegas...

Slept in until around noon, did some yoga and that's about all. Being stuck on a bus is not as awesome as it sounds, but we do our best to keep occupied. I think I'm going to do Gracie's make-up in a minute. We're going to pull the bus over in an hour or so and get dinner. We're all very excited.


Words can't express how glad I am that Missa and Gracie were able and willing to come out on the road. There are nine people on this bus - three chicks and six dudes. I'm not sure how I'd survive without Missa and Gracie! It's nice to not be the only person on the bus that has a period, you know?
