Slacking? The reason.

Yes I am aware that I have been slacking. It's all for good cause though. Here's what I've been up to:

I went to see KISS a few weeks ago. It really is "the hottest show on earth!" We were about 34 rows back from the front of the stage & was still able to feel the heat. It was awesome when Gene Simmons spit fire & also blood. Also Paul Stanley flew over our heads. I never thought I'd ever go to a KISS show; much to my imagination with my mother & aunt. They were quite a riot while singing the songs! I however was just enjoying the moment because I doubt I'll ever be that close to them again.

I also went to Uproar Fest this past Friday. (See previous entry for all the details.) Avenged Sevenfold was awesome. The best band I have seen (besides KISS) ever. Their whole set was amazing. Graveyard-like scenes, pyro, & everything else imaginable. I only wish Jimmy was there.

Now my fall classes have started. Today was the first day & I don't even know where to begin. In a way it reminded me of high school but in a way there was still the college vibe. There are tons of Freshman & you can tell that they are the newbies. There are a few in my Criminal Investigation class & well, when they sleep on the first day you just know that they're Freshman. Also my math class there's a few in. How could I tell? All they talked about was how high school was. I couldn't take it! I kept tweeting to keep me sane.

Well I'm off to listen to Garrett's show!

Uproar Fest; Scranton, PA

What can I say about Uproar Fest other than it was one of the best times I ever had in my life?! Let me start from the beginning.

Running on a few hours of sleep I decided to get up at 9:30am. Why? Honestly, I have no clue because we weren’t leaving till after 3. I was listening to our local rock station, 979x, the whole time while getting ready. They have this text thing called the “unfair advantage” & I signed up a long time ago for it because it gives you exclusive inside knowledge on upcoming shows & that. Anywhoo, basically every band was stopping by their broadcast rig at some point during the day. You could meet them & stuff. I got a text saying that A7X was going to be there at 6pm. I was freaking out but eventually calmed down.

We got to the venue at a little after 5. I checked out the merch & then we decided to hit up the broadcast rig to make sure we got to meet A7X. My friend Tiff & I were towards the back of the crowd at first & I noticed a huge opening. Before I knew it we were up front & ready for our boys. While waiting we saw Dan the Body riding around on a motorcycle behind the broadcast rig. Then we figured out that the A7X buses were the only ones not surrounded by the 6 foot fence. That was funny because we were playing who’s coming out of the bus now. We waited & waited for what seemed like eternity. Then we saw Thor. That was a surprised because last I talked to him he wasn’t even going to do security for A7X. Eventually we were told that A7X were running late so we stood around waiting. Finally a car pulled up & Syn jumped out. All we saw was his hair & we began screaming. He did a short interview & most of the crowd left. We stayed & thank god we did. He came around & high fived everyone before going back to the bus. We missed Halestorm but it was worth it.

After our little run in with Syn we made our way to our seats to prepare ourselves for A7X. Stone Sour wasn’t too bad. I personally thought they were better live then on their cd. Before we knew it the black curtain was dropped for A7X. We screamed & watched the very real person jump & hang himself. Nightmare began to play & I screamed. Then Critical Acclaim filled the air & I screamed the lyrics along with my A7X family. The whole A7X set was amazing. We felt the heat from the stage when the flames rose from the graveyard like set. I couldn’t be happier! I almost cried when I saw the backdrop of Johnny, Jimmy, & Syn. It was very emotional & the crowds response surprised me. Before I knew it their set was over & everyone kept chanting “Sevenfold”. Too bad there wasn’t an encore.

Many people left after A7X & didn’t stay around for Disturbed. We stayed for a few songs but left also. We were completely exhausted. Plus we had to climb a hill & steps to get back to the car. Competely not fun at all. Traffic was horrible & I didn’t get home until 1am. I crashed with awesome dreams.

One thing I missed was Jimmy being there. He was there in spirit but I wish I could’ve gotten the chance to see him play.

Holiday, Mail Bag.

What is your favorite holiday?

This question came from my question box (the box where I put all your questions in). This is simple. My favorite holiday is Halloween. It is the one holiday out of the entire year that I can be myself without anyone judging me. Dressing up is fun, no questions about that but I can listen to the Monster Mash without anyone thinking I'm crazy! I do listen to the Monster Mash other times of the year too because I refuse to take it off of my iPod. Also my skull collection comes in good use too.

I'm not sure why I love Halloween other than what I already said. I am completely in my element. Also I love the scary movies that are on tv, especially the older ones. There's something about seeing the movies in their original state that makes the holiday so much better.

Call me crazy, but I love this holiday. If I had a choice, it would be Halloween all year for me.

You're Kidding Me?!?!

This blog is about who I don't know & who I do know as well as my informants.

First off this started on Formspring. People obviously can't mind their own business or pry into the lives of others for one second of the day. I am sorry but I will never say who my informants are. If I did then they wouldn't be informants. The whole point is for them to be a secret. I'm sure if most of you were smart you'd be able to catch on to what I tweet but it seems most of you aren't as bright as you try to act.

As to the information I give, it's on a need to know basis. I won't give you any more information other than what I think you should know. It is someone's life we are usually talking about here & their privacy should be respected. I'm sorry that there seems to be tons of stalkers out there who try to find every little detail out of someone's life by stalking every possible page they may have or their families & friends. That would be another reason I am not saying who my informants are because you would probably stalk them as well.

What this comes down to is respecting people's privacy. I am so grateful to know who I do & recieve the information I do. I am not about to blow it because I need to prove anything to anyone. Believe me or not, see if I care. You'll all see who's right & who's wrong eventually. Just remember, Team Logano was the first & will always be the first fanspace for Joey Logano. I work for them & only them. Ask me for information now, I won't give you any. Blame yourselves for that.

Nothing To Say.

What do you like the most working with Team Logano?

People say it's the perks I get. Honestly, there's not many perks. They say "You get free stuff" & "You get hot passes". Truth is I don't! Usually anyway. Hot passes come far & in between. So far I'm not one of the lucky ones to receive one of those yet. Free stuff, I guess you can count an autographed car.

Joey's fans are what make this job worth it. If it wasn't for you all then my job would be pointless. Seeing how many messages we receive & everything makes all the headaches worth it! I try my best for you all & for that everyone seemed to accept me into their NASCAR world. For that I am truly grateful. I love signing on & seeing messages from people saying how we helped them meet Joey. Also the messages saying how grateful everyone is to have us around. You guys are awesome!

Yes I do complain a lot but Team Logano is one of the closet things to the fans. There is tons of work that goes into it but it's worth it! There are many projects that I'm working on that I am sure you all will love! I'm hoping to get them to everyone by mid-June.

I think that's enough of me rambling!

Check My Brain.

Where are you going to be for your appearances?

Okay as of today I am officially 100% confirmed going to be at Joey's meet & greet at the Home Depot in Stroudsburg, PA. I'm going to get there around 3p.m. Yes, I did say 3. I heard that quite a few people will be going & that there are tons of different activities. I'm not sure if my associate, Danielle is going or not. I'll let you know if she will be there with me. I suggest you follow my tweets if you'd like to meet me. If you know you're going please DM me on Twitter & I'll give you more information. Or send me an email at AnnaAffliction@aol.com.

I am going to be at Pocono Raceway Friday & Saturday if you'd like to meet up. I know Danielle will be with me for a majority of those events. Same thing goes for that. DM me on Twitter or email me.

I do have some events coming up in August however I'm not going to disclose any information about that yet. Once the time gets closer I will give more information.

Also many have been asking about how will they find me & know it's me. I'm working on something & I can gaurentee you'll know it's me! I'll let you know what that is when all the details are worked out.

If there are any questions feel free to contact me! I'd love to meet Joey's fans & fans of Team Logano!

Just A Girl.

You should own a Team Kahne!

Well you think I really should? I'd love to however there's a few I seen already. If there wasn't any then I'd totally start one! Also just by posting a few questions about me owning or starting a Team Kahne some people got their tighty whities all in a bunch. Either they're affraid I actually will start one & it will take over, just like Team Logano did, or they just don't like me being involved!

I have been a Kasey fan for a while now & it wouldn't take me much thought to jump on board with this. The only thing is Team Logano takes up tons of time & I don't have time for much of anything else. I'd really love to help other sites & stuff but my schedule is very hetic right now.

I think that's all I have to say about this. I am not starting a Team Kahne. I might help with one of the many that are out there but I'm not starting another one. Don't be surprised though if you see me posting Kasey stuff. After all he's my #1 driver.

Dr.Feelgood

Why do you like Kasey Kahne?

This is one of the most popular questions I am asked. I guess it all comes down to the year of 2006. It was my first time going to a race track. My dad said that I was going to like Kasey Kahne & I looked at him like he was crazy. At the time I didn't have a favorite driver. I just went with Tony Stewart because his car was #20 & that was my basketball number. Long story short we headed to pit road. I met tons of drivers & Kasey was one of them. I just thought he was cute at the time. Eventually I looked him up & he seemed like a good pick so I went with him. After a few wins I figured I couldn't go wrong with supporting him. 4 years later & I'm in way over my head.

I met Kasey for the 2nd time June 2008. The first time I didn't really care that he talked to me or anything because many drivers were.The 2nd time I screamed when he got pole then took off running to where my brother was standing on pit road to get my car signed. After that we saw Kasey was sticking around for autographs & stuff so I took a spot where it was "illegal" to stand. I got told to move I don't know how many times & I kept saying "after I meet Kasey!" It took a bit before he got to where I was standing & I got another autograph before I asked for a picture with him. That's where you get the cherished picture of us. Afterwards I called almost everyone I knew & I was crying because I met him! I know, it's so stupid but he's awesome. He does so much for his fans & it's tough not to like him. Trust me, I tried it & it didn't last long!

Now what can I say other than Kasey's my #1 driver?!?! Sure I do support Joey but Kasey came first. He's the one who got me addicted to racing. Many fans only like him because he's hot. No doubt that's one of my reasons but he's an amazing driver. Who wouldn't want him on their team?! I will stick by him through thick & thin. After all I own more Kasey items than a normal person should. Not to mention I have a Kasey liscense plate on my car. In the end, I will support him 100% in whatever he does.

Unraveling.

One issue that seems to keep coming up & yes today I will rant about it...

Yes I am a Kasey Kahne fan as well as a Joey Logano fan. I own Team Logano on Myspace. If that doesn't support Joey, I don't know what does. People have been talking crap about how Kasey is going to Hendrick. I'm sorry it's not your driver. Kasey is an excellent driver & deserves a chance with the best teams. You don't see me complaining that your driver is in the news, do you? NO! I respect your opinions. Why can't you respect mine? For your information Kasey is not annoying. I can name many others who need to learn to stay out of the spotlight. Kasey is in it once in a while. The same goes for Joey. I don't appreciate Joey haters adding Team Logano on Myspace and starting things with Joey's fans. That is not what we are here for. You know who you are so I highly suggest you shut your mouth about this blog too. You're thoughts are worthless to me. The only thing I ask is if I respect you, please respect me.

With that I'm finished with this entry.
