Ok Well I'm back to post about Saturdays adventure to the Metro to see Amber Benson. Well the drive I think had to be the worse part of the whole adventure. It seem like it took forever. We first went to Jamba Juice to have a little breakfast so when we got there are stomachs weren't growling. That might of been a bad mistake since like right after we got into LA we had to go to the bathroom. So we stopped at some country club and went to the bathroom there. Then we tried to get back on the 101 North and they didn't have a ramp to go North just one to go back South. So we had to go back and find a ramp that could get us turned back around. That definately added some unwanted time to the trip. Then we are driving and we haven't even hit Santa Barbara yet and it seems like it has been two hours of driving time already. Then we have to go to a bathroom again. So we stop at a McDonalds and hit the bathroom. By this time it is now 11:30 and the signing starts at 12 and we have yet to see a sign that says Santa Barbara. When we finally do it says like 12 miles and I'm like there is no way we are going to get there by noon. Finally we get into the city at noon. Then we can't find parking. Eventually we find a parking structure and when we go we have to stop because some jackass is waiting for people to move out of there parking spot. My window is down cause it was hot and I'm yellinng fucking eh there is probably parking else where you are backing us up and I'm freaking late. This not just happen once, nor twice, but three times. What the fuck is wrong with people. Can't take an elevator down 4 floors or something? We finally park on the 3rd level of parking and get out of the car and walk over to Metro Comics.
While we are parking there is another one of those annoying war protest in front of the Museum which is diagnolly across from the Metro. I found it really annoying and stupid. So I ignore that and cross the street over and walk over to the place hotter and extremely pissed. So I took my blue flame skull cap off cause I was really hot. waited to pay for the autographs and photo and all. Get there it's 12 for autographs, so i buy two of those. Then 10 for poloroid and i buy one of those. Then i bought one photo for 5 dollars. Totally of 39 dollars I spent at the Metro. Then went over to get in are place in line. Waited for a while then they let like 10 people in. That left us at the front now. Then some dude comes out and goes on about he got the first autograph and how he asked her if buffy was going to end and I'm like why is this guy talking to us. I was like just standing there just being like ok. My mind was elsewhere at that point in time. Then the people from the Metro says you can some in now. So we go in and go to the back of this small place to get at the end of the line in there.
We finally get up there to her and my roommate tells her how I drag her to all her stuff and make her watch all her stuff and she laughs. Then my roommate says i like all the stuff your in it's cool. She then gives my roomie a hug since she gave her a letter. Then she goes I recognize that shirt and she's like you can't have a bad week and I'm like I seem to have one every time I see you and she goes that can't be the case. Then my roomie says we just paid tuition and she like that's not good. Then we told her how much it cost and all and she gave me a hug after i gave her my stuff for her. Then I went to wait in the polaroid line.
Stood in the polaroid line for a while. So my roomie decided to go to a bookstore. Well the bookstore turned out to be a bible bookstore so she went to an antique store then McDonalds and got us fries and drinks. Well while she was doing that they finally let us in. So I waited alone and it was smokey smelling in there. Ugh not a fan of cigarette smoke. Then got up there and she's like it's Briann Right. I was like saying in my head holy shit she remembered me, and she pronounced my name right. BTW most people don't pronounce my name right, it sucks. Take the picture and then I say thanks a lot and can I have a hug for the road and she's like sure. I go it's well needed for the 2 hour drive back and she's like you guys. Then I left and met my roomie outside.
We get in the car and leave to head back. Then we stop in Ventura County to watch surfing, because I had never seen that live before or waves that big. Then after 15 minutes we headed back out and drove for a while then maybe a 15 minutes out of LA we had to go to the bathroom and stopped for gasoline for the car. My roomie sure gets a kick out of the McRib being back. Got some stuff to eat went to the bathroom before and after we ate then headed back. Then we got stuck in traffic on the 101 and my car was right near the white line before you hit the red heat line so i was like shit. So windows got rolled down radio turned down and air completely shut off. So then we decided we are going on the 134 and that was good cause traffic was not bad. Took us 30 minutes after we got on there to get back to the dorms to crash form an exhausting trip.
