Nick came into town to see me. I had a gig that night, and he wanted to come and see my band play. So we went out to the bar and it was nice being with him. Before the show we sat together and he ordered me a beer. I was neglecting soundcheck. All of the sudden, it was 5 minutes late. Panicked I ran to the stage. It wasn't a good thing that I neglected sound check, I didn't know where my mic was. I was going to have to use Greg's and I was pissed about it, but somehow I found mine. The stage was far away from the bar, I couldn't even see Nick anymore. I asked if we could open with our Trivium song to which my band agreed. Suddenly, the stage seemed like a bunk bed, we were playing on the top. A girl who used to be my friend years ago, Stephanie, showed up and climbed up onto the stage/bed during the song. It was going terribly. My voice did not sound good at all this night. And it was the first time Nick was hearing me sing, so I was depressed about it. Stephanie ended up knocking over our equipment, and I was actually relieved.
Ashlee and I went to her school. It was strange, there were strange people. We had Nick's dog Dee with us for some reason. We took pictures around the odd campus with strange statues, and then went inside an old building. I don't know why, but we were supposed to stay there for the night. I looked for Dee, she was gone! I asked if someone let her out, and they did. I got very angry and started yelling at them. They told me she'd come back. But I wasn't satisfied. Nick loves that dog, and we couldn't loose her.
