Don't be jealous of my childlike awesomeness!

So I have received a couple of not so nice comments about my last post where I showed a picture of a toy that I put in my office. This picture was of a collector's item: The Hatch from LOST Season 1. This is my favorite show and I thought that this was cool, plus it lights up, so I got it. Well since I put one picture up of a toy in my office I figured that I would show the rest: Batman stuff and Ricky Bobby.

We Used To Play Music Together....

So yesterday I read some very exciting news... Blink-182 is back together!!!! Now I know this may not be that exciting to most of you but you do not know my story. I Love music, and this love for music started one day when I found a cd on a sidewalk. That cd was Blink-182's Dude Ranch. I was a very excited seventh grader. I went home and put it in my cd player and fell in love. Now, being a pastor's kid, I made sure to always listened to Blink with my head phones. When my parents found out about blink and their lyrics they were not the happiest and gave me a talk. But they lost the arguement because my dad was also a pastor's kid who loved Elvis (same story different musician). So when I pulled the Elvis card I won.
I was obbsessed with Blink, they were the reason I picked up the guitar and started singing. When blink would go on tour I always wanted to go but there was always something stopping me. One day when I was a Sophmore in High School, a friend at school offered me a free ticket with a backstage pass and my mom said I couldn't go because it was Mother's Day weekend! Now don't get me wrong I love my mom, but let's just say I wasn't a happy person that day and I may have voiced that in some way. Then the years passed and in my senior year Blink went on tour again and they were coming close to home on May 16th. Now I was so excited because I could drive and there was nothing that was going to get my way. When I asked/told my parents I was going they said okay! I was so excited!! Then when I told them when, my mother sadly told me that that was the same day as my graduation. I told her that they could mail me my diploma because I wouldn't be there. Well to make a loooooong arguement short, I didn't get to go. My dad said, "Jason ... it's Blink-182, they are going to be around for a while!" Right after that tour, Blink was no more.

They broke up in February of 2005 and it was a day that would live in infamy...or so I thought. This past Sunday at the Grammt's, for the first time together since the break, Blink presented an award for best rock album of the year. Right before the did this, Travis Barker, so "excitedly", announced that they were back together for good. They are to have a cd out this summer!!! Oh and no matter what happens...I will be at this tour!!!!!!!!!!!!!
