soon we're just knocking on doors

hey all,
today we're in akron, oh. we drove here last night after we left paulson.

on that note, unfortunately paulson had a family situation that they had to deal, and so they will not be playing the next few shows with us. whenver they are ready, they will hop back on the tour, but until then, our hearts are with you guys.

so, outside of cincinnati, jesse and alex's aunt and uncle put us up for the night and made us an incredible dinner and bought us beer and wine. they are some of the sweetest people, and we really appreciated everything. then we split up with paulson yesterday, and drove for akron, hoping we could find a place to stay. we tried the olive garden, because we had success with dan there last time, and plus, he was able to get us a discount. that didn't work too well, so we headed for the borders after dinner, and after just about giving up, i asked some kid who looked kind of indie if he knew anyone who might be willing to help some kids out. after a few questions, he said we could stay with him. this is getting ridiculous. we've realize we've gone from asking people we know, to asking complete strangers who aren't even at shows. so, next is to just walk up to houses and ask point blank. hehe, we're jackasses. anyway, that's about it. thanks to ryan and zach for having us. oh yea, zach and his girlfriend have a really cute puppy named salvadore, and he has six toes on his left leg. it's so cute and gross at the same time.

ok, that's it. have a great day.
