I'll thank Holly for tagging me - I'll get you somehow :P
The rules are: Once you have been tagged you have to write a blog with 10 weird or random things, facts, or habits about yourself. At the end, you choose 10 people to be tagged, list their names, and why you chose them to be tagged. Don't forget to leave a comment that says, "You are tagged" on their profile and to read your latest blog. Have fun!
1- Bugs freak me out - especially cock roaches and crickets. I'll scream like a little girl and run away or jump around like a fool until someone gets rid of it. I won't kill them either.
2- I got a tattoo in 1994 because I always wanted to do something rebellious (although i was already an adult). I kept it hidden from my parents until I was forced to come clean when I was giving birth to my son 7 years later ;)
3- I'm adopted and have absolutely no information about where I came from, which makes filling out medical history papers really fun!
4- I'm obsessed with the band 30 Seconds To Mars and have a Golden Ticket which gets me into shows for free. By the end of March I will have attended 19 shows.
5- I believe in ghosts, aliens and most conspiracy theories.
6- There is at least one spirit living in my house and she likes to mess with me a bit.
7- I'm a cat person but I have two big dogs.
8- I worked in a Chilli Bordello after college. I had to wear a corset, fishnets and high heels and I served business men chilli for lunch everyday. And no, my degree has nothing to do with this line of work - I was desperate!
9- I love cars. I know more about cars than my husband and I'm the one that takes care of the cars we have.
10- I will watch any bad, B-rated horror movie that's on. I could sit on the couch all day and watch them. Does anyone remember The Bermuda Depths or Let's Scare Jessica To Death?
Now – for my victims:
1- Brian - 'cause you're always leaving me sassy comments.
2- Jeff - you're my favorite artist and i miss you
3- Courtney - you must have some really good ones
4- Ash - 'cause you're a rock star baby!
5- Michelle - you know you've got secrets to share.
6- Shawn - I think you would like this little exercise
7- Sarah - because pictures aren't always worth a thousand words
8- Mizzy- because you're the queen of the ball!
9- Dyana - you're one cool chica
10- Lindsay - you're a sweetheart and I'd like to know you better

Current mood: bored
So I was bored...
I guess I resemble Dean from Supernatural. How cool is that (well except I'm female!)
Maybe I went overboard with the pics. But here they are. It's kind of addicting. I even ran one with Jared in it and it came back 100% match for Jared Leto :P This thing is cool.

.. Wow! The show was amazing. They played Savior and it was awesome! I love the song, but it it's a whole other experience live. Our little group of Echelon were holding the front line on Matt's side and having a little party. Kendall and I had to invent a new dance to keep the stupid little pushy-shovey girls in line. We like to call it the "slap-a-bitch". It's not very fun to look at but it gets the job done!
Security was quite the bitch. Absolutely no cameras or monkey business! So in some respects, that was a good thing... although no video of Savior :(
Out at the bus was quite amusing. After everyone got their time with each of the boys, we managed to do a bunch of group shots, which usually is very hard to organize. We may look a little disheveled, but it was a good time.
When almost everyone cleared out, Jared would stick his head out of the bus and throw the scragglers gifts. At first they were cds and such, but then it turned into unedible broccoli and half eaten mixed nuts. I think it was a hint! We finally left around 2:30. I still had to drive another 1 1/2 hours home. Next up... Taste of Chaos. Get ready Lexi, we might have to brave Asbury Park again ..
P.S. - I have to add that the Mars Boys were so very generous with their time last night; the set went late, they did a signing, and they stayed outside with every last one of us. You guys are the best!
Look, you can see the crazy guy in the background trying to get autographs. Matt kept yelling Ebay Guy at him!
The "Buck Shot"
Lexi made these really cute bears, complete with pierrot masks. I think Tomo really likes his.
This is a really scary pic of me... so why am I posting it? Jared's expression!
Innocent Shannon
I love this pic of Kim and Matt - lovely!
Dyana was feeling ill and Tomo didn't want any part of that. So he went for a more artsy shot with perspective!
So I've been to 3 completely different shows on this tour in a matter of days. Some good and one not so good. I really haven't enjoyed many of the fans MTV has attracted but the boys were great. I've grown to love Cobra Starship - Snakes on a Plane -Bring It! And I have to wish Men, Women & Children a speedy recovery after getting everything they own stolen in Detroit. I hope the few bucks I gave you helped - wish it could have been more!
Roseland Ballroom, NYC - Oct 27, 2006
This was the best sounding show by far with lots of energy and even a Jane's Addiction cover that was great. The big problem here was the insane amount of assholes in the crowd that night.
Echelon in masks waiting in line
I got some video during the show but no pics - see video section for Mountain Song cover.
After the show it was raining and we missed all the guys except Tomo (they were across the street from us the whole time but we didn't know it). We asked some girl to take this pic and she obviously doesn't know how to use a camera.
Me and Boston Kim
Tom's River, NJ - Oct. 30, 2006
Let's just forget about this one. The whole thing sucked from the venue to security and the non-existant crowd bringing the energy down! I think Jared actually wrote "worst show ever" on an Echelon badge!
This pic of Tomo is all I got and this is exactly how he looked thru the whole show.
Blood Ball - Electric Factory Philly Oct. 31, 2006
This show was alot of fun. I saw a bunch of people I've met thru the many shows I've attended.
Lexi & I before the show
The Blood Booth Crew
Me & Steph
Mizzy (The Queen of the Ball) and Lexi
Lexi and the notorious Tim Ritchey (banned from the message boards for 25 years for being an asshole - although in person he's quite amusing!)
Me & Dyana aka Fanta Girl
The only pic of the show I got before the batteries died
Me & Kendall who looks cute in anything, even blood
Me & Tomo
I didn't get a pic with Shannon before he shaved his beard :(
Shannon eating Tim (notice the "Beardo" clock Kim gave Shannon)
Me & Tim
Lexi, Jared & I after the King & Queen contest
Unfortunately we left before Matt came out. Hopefully we'll see him at the Ram's Head. HFSmas here we come!

The final show. Cincinnati, Ohio August 13, 2006.
I almost missed this show because it was rescheduled but by some sort of miracle, everything worked out!
I knew it was going to be a good day when we pulled onto I-71 and we were right behind the bus. My husband wouldn't let me honk, so when we passed I waved. I saw the bus driver noticed my phoenix sticker.
Jen and I had a small issue with our tickets. The venue didn't have me listed but had an envelope from Virgin with no name. So we ended up getting them, but not until everyone and their mother were inside. So much for being close to the stage.
The show was amazing - so full of energy - it was great! I was able to get videos of The Kill and The Mission and just a few pics. (Videos now posted in video section)
I got their very cool new record - yes vinyl - and had the boys sign it (i miss mattie!) Now I'm on a mission to get a new turntable.
We got some pics out by the bus, but the guys had to leave pretty quickly. We ended up behind the bus for a while and then went our separate ways. Can't wait until fall....
the only good shot i got inside
Jen & I with Shannon (she apologized for licking his ear last time-see picture comments on main page)
Jen & I with Tomo
Me & Jared
A funny drunk girl took this - she thought it looked great! If you can't tell, that's the new vinyl record
So we just moved into our new house and I thought I would post some pics. Its a brick colonial built in 1944 in North Wilmington, DE. It's a beautiful little community with lots of trees and all the homes are different. Let's hope it stops raining soon!
