The aftermath of SXSW this year left me with the inspiration to hit the road myself to get a hands-on-experience of what being on tour is like. I’d been playing around town and on the corners of 6^th Street for a couple of years so I knew I could make a little money doing it and the road was calling to me. In less than a week the plans were made and I set out for California with my best friend +Angela O  We quit our jobs, and with only a couple hundred bucks in our pockets, we knew we’d need tips for gas and food from here to the west coast and back.

Weird Chantix Dream #17- Flight 866

You took me to your grandparent's for dinner. I thanked your grandmother profusely for having us over and cooking since my family doens't celebrate xmas. She was upset though. Of coarse. Your grandpa was trying to potty train Shelburne, and Shelburne was laughing about the bidet. lol.
He was naked though so it was a little disturbing.

Then you were going somewhere on a plane, but it got highjacked! I was so scared for you! The highjackers were shooting people, and I ran by trying to get to you and I almost got shot. Hours later I was trying to find more information about it on the news, flight 866, but all I could find were cartoons. RERUNS! I was screaming "MY HUSBAND IS ON THAT PLANE!" but the detectives said you weren't my husband. I told them I loved you but they didn't understand.

You tried to escape at some point. You were going to parachute using your MC Hammer pants, but you didn't get away. I saw a jeep full of kids sink into the lake. Jeep was trying to convince people after that that it's still a good car to buy.

I found out the plane had landed in the Caribbean. The water was so blue. The SWAT team was ready when people started getting off the plane, and they thought they were safe, but suddenly the highjackers shot everyone and took off in a boat with the treasure! I saw the whole thing from underwater. Maybe my tears made the ocean deeper. As far as I know, you died. That sux :(

Weird Chantix Dream #16 - Deadly

A black guy got in a deadly car accident with his mistress in the car with him. The guy is alive, but his mistress was killed in the accident. There is blood everywhere and brains.  The cop that reports to the scene is the guy's dad. He drives the crashed van to the hospital speeding and swerving to get there for help, but then his injured son makes him so mad that he crashes the van on purpose and it kills his son.

There are people looking at pictures to identify the dead guy. They are leaning over asleep but raising their hands with each pic they recognize. The man in the pictures is getting older, but younger at heart cuz he was in love with his mistress. 

I'm cleaning the room where his mistress shot herself. The door keeps shutting and the lights keep going off and it scares me. Scares me. I borrowed a cellphone with inappropriate stuff on it from one of the girls I'm staying with. I go to check on SB and she's asleep in a borrowed crib.

There is an emergency  in the morning and everyone on the block gets in their vans for briefing. This family is against another family on the other side of the block because they found out they lied about who their baby's daddy is. The real dad was young and when they called him over to the van, he tried to shake the babies hand.

The parents decide the feud shouldn't be between the parents anymore, but between the children, so they have the kids put paper mailboxes on the front of their houses to comunicate with each other. Then the kids put one boy in a fenced in area and paint his hair yellow and red. The boy's dad tries to tell him the red will turn pink and then he laughs and decides to let the boy learn on his own.
