Oh, Gravity, Why...?

November 17 2006
The title cut of Switchfoot's upcoming album has a couple of verses that go a little something like this:

Oh, gravity, why can't we
Seem to keep it together?

Well what I want to know, Mr. Gravity, is why everything that goes up MUST come down? Couldn't you be more selective?

You see...

Last night Garrett and I celebrated (an incredible) two and a half years together.



In honor of the occassion, we went to the Switchfoot concert, since they are both Garrett's and mine's favorite band.



And it was awesome. Amazingly awesome.



But gravity prevailed...

Towards the end of the concert, a crowd surfer landed on me. I'm not gonna lie... it was pretty scary. Thankfully I maintained counscious and coherent at the time it all happened. My head and neck felt completely numb, but now... everything is moveable, nothing's broken, and I seem to be recovering pretty well. I am so thankful that it wasn't worse.

So the moral of that story is...

Don't crowd surf, kids. It's not safe. For you or anyone else.

But I digress...

Switchfoot was rockin' awesome! I had an absolute blast and am so glad that we went! If you haven't seen them in concert before, you're missing out...

Jon Foreman also walked through the crowd... right where Garrett and I were... and I got to touch him... I just wish I could have gotten a picture of him in the process.

I also determined that I completely and totally love Nashville. I would live there in a heartbeat, especially over there by Belmont and Music Row. I loved it so much. It's that big city feel on a smaller scale than a place like New York... and I really love that.

I hope everyone has a good weekend. I'm going to shoot a video for my final EMC project tomorrow! Woot. I hope all goes well and smoothly for that. I would like to get it done now so I can foucs on the other 3 million papers and projects I have coming up in the next three weeks from heck. Bleh.
