1 7-2-03 Yay for merch tent! Dave and I went down there to get our Five Iron stuff. Brad and Andy were manning the table. On our way down, we hitched a ride with a girl and a kid that I’m sure is the baby in the logo I made for Klif. We bought CDs and stickers and t-shirts and were very poor. We saw Kee-gun in the merch tent, holding a golf club. He said he saw it in some store and said to himself “If that’s a 5 iron, I’m buying it.“ Lo and behold, it was. Dave had to go to the first aid trailer because the stitches in his toe were breaking. I stayed with him for a while and laughed at two guys who talked about how hot Jeff the Girl was. I went alone to Evoka, catching the very end of it because I couldn’t find the stage anywhere. I bought a CD and gave it to Noah because he missed it.
Kee-gun and wireless Mike were visiting Camp Frenzy when I returned. We listened to The End Is Near again. Kee-gun and Mike were so rocking out to “So Far, So Bad” and “Wizard Needs Food Badly”. When it got to the part that goes “This song is RAD!” Kee-gun and Mike both tilted their heads sideways, mouths wide open singing “RAAAAAAD!” Totally priceless. Kee-gun was singing into his five iron golf club, then he proceeded to beat m@ with it, or pretend to anyways.
Jordan started to make a PBJ with crunchy peanut butter and squeeze jam. Dave flipped for the squeezy bottle, and begged for a sandwich to try it. Jordan made her sandwich with her fingers, smushing the peanut butter around...so random...
Sandy(TimmyTapeDispencer) brought some plastic baby things for Jodi that they thought were candy. They tried to eat them. Baby eating!
Dave and I ran off to the phones. I called Trevor and Mehl. Mehl’s so friggin cute! I adore her! I told her about the surprise show and camp and so on. Dave had a video camera, and was filming random girls and freaking them out. It was funny because eventually he just turned off the camera and kept pointing it at them.
When we got back to camp, it was deserted. I tried to find Noah to go to the Billions, but he was nowhere to be found, so I went by myself. Poor Noah only got to hear one song. I felt bad because somewhere in the running around, we missed each other. He was also frustrated because the generator wasn’t working.
Havelina was incredible. I think they are the best band I’ve seen so far, other than Brave Saint Saturn, but they’re totally different, the best in their own way.
We rested at camp for a while, with Rudy’s brother whom we call Four Foot Headless. He’s all into Matt’s laptop and their nerdy games. I totally love this camp. He and James and Noah and I tried to devise a way to win a billion dollars for the Frenzyboard through a Mountain Dew contest. They calculated the odds and how many bottles each boardie would have to drink between now and the time the contest ended. It reminded me of my brother.
Tonight’s dinners were Ramen noodles. Dave and I agreed to split some, and I put about half in my mushroom cup and chowed down. About 5 bites in, I noticed a really funny taste. EW! It tasted like soap! There were bubbles in it, and a lot of people were laughing at me. I think what happened was when Sasha used my dish soap and put it back in the cup, it dripped on the inside of the mug.
Darin and Mel came, and I tried to pass the noodles off on them. “Darin, eat these noodles, come on.” “Um, no...that’s ok.” So I saw Nic, who was stumbling around laughing like a fool and screaming, “I like YOUR head!” Ah, the perfect victim. So I told him to eat them, and he took them and sat down. It was totally suspicious, I don’t know why he didn’t catch on. I was across the canopy, laughing my head off, nearly falling over myself. As he got to the thrid or fourth bite, his face changed, head reared back, and started convulsing and spitting. It was the funniest thing ever! Later, Nic congratulated me on a job well done.
