knock knock knocking on sanon's door

The last 48 hours have been a little crazed, for lack of a better expression.
At a tapas party for the novias de espana I agreed to go to a concert. However, as I was very drunk when I made this agreement I was unable to remember it the following day.
The following day was spent in bed watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer with Moni. There was a brief pause for a hamburger break, then we resumed Buffy watching. Then there was a knock on the door--my little sister from Iraq. we come from the future She was tired, so she curled up in my bed with Moni and I.
Then there was another knock. It was my little sister from italy. RUC party she needed help correcting the theory section of her paper. So, I went to her room and the two sleepy heads followed and fell asleep in Laura's bed.
Then there was yet another knock. It was the person I agreed to go to the show with. OOOPS! totally forgot. I scrambled to buy my ticket and get dressed and go.
We went to see less than jake and guttermouth. Two bands that I listened to a lot in the formative years of middle and high school. It was a fun crazy show. The only thing that set me off was the fact that the bands were completely playing up the ugly, macho american and i remembered why i stopped going to punk rock shows. i don't like the way the men in these bands rag on women. it totally harshed my mellow. However, all-in-all, it was a good time. (side note, someone got stabbed outside of the club we were in. denmark is not what people think.)
the next morning the plan was to go on a long bike ride from roskilde to frederikssund. Ricardo knocked on my door in the morning to tell me that we would leave in 30 minutes. 10minutes later, knock knock.
Ricardo: bad news. we will not go by bike anymore. the weather is terrible and some spanish will go to helsingor.
me: ok
R: fuck sorry, shannon. do you want to go
m: only if there is room.
R: there is no room.
m: ok. then, no.
R: fuck, shannon. sorry.
Then 10 minutes later. knock knock. there is room. we are going now.
So, I grabbed my purse and off I went. The day was spent with me and 10 Spanish wandering around and looking at castles. It was fun and tiring. the evening ended with me drinking until 7 and briefly abducting a person that i only know because he sells me my 7zoner clip card at the super brugsen.
I will upload photos soon. Right now I am out the door to see a "jam session" at christiania.
ciao ciao
