summer tour part 3

by Sharon Brooke

only three weekends into tour. crikey mate. four weekends left, but i will be in mexicooooo for two weeks so wheeeeee! blah blah blah thursday, friday flew to vegas to albuquerque, took a shuttle to santa fe, relaxed by the pool and waited for j to arrive! ratchet fourth of july party in the parking lot by the buses cordoned off with caution tape. very sweet but we only stayed 15 minutes because, well, it was a day off. the bed and room service were beckoning. next day was the show at the downs which was an abandoned race track. somehow raliegh urana and i got left at sears while they were at promo, so we shopped a little more which is where i got that awesome turnt up hat! then we cabbed it to the venue, which was a little bit weird energy. perhaps it was the ominous clouds or the uneven grass floor. not sure. maybe haunted spirits in the abandoned building which we werent allowed to go into and they had alarms so poop. after the show i thought i was going onto our bus but it had left so i ended up on the soja bus, and a minute later sara came in and thought the SAME THING. so we stayed and partayed for a bit! then j hossein and i did some freestyles and really sucked at them. just kidding, we got better with each rap. i really believe that. next day was red rocks where i did not have a sip of alcohol. what i did have was a major workout fest and then perhaps some altitude sickness. blech! really it was a very whatever night. im being honest. theres something about these big shows that just makes me want to crawl in a small isolated space and stay there until the next smaller stop. but all was not lost, that night i left with urana and dario to denver since i was supposed to fly out at 6am (???!) but i changed my flight til 430pm the next day cause dario got a suite at the four seasons and it was magical! we also had sushi lunch! such a nice transition from tour to home. we should do that every time! and here i am home for less than 48 hours. taking off in 14 hours for chicago, where j will take me on a tour of his former life! sandra dee ftw!!!!
