"You're not as interesting as I thought you were"
...it's nice to hear what people really think, isn't it?
It's just unfortunate how it always comes out at the most inappropriate of times. Maybe someday we'll all learn how to communicate with one another without the mechanical assistances we've grown so accustomed to hiding behind.

Band of Horses.. |
] |
I've been listening to the new Band of Horses album for a week straight and I just think it's great. Perhaps because since my iPod died and since I don't keep in better touch with certain people *coughColeJonesSpencerBeaverscoughcough* I haven't listened to anything recent in a while.
Lately I've been reminded of a Pg.99 excerpt; "Love your friends... Die laughing".
...Seems like a decent way to go if you ask me.
I am but grins and groans.

At first, I was really against having this on the internet....
I should just learn to trust my dear friend Sean Kelley who directed, filmed, and edited this short for a homework assignment.
I sure hope you got an A+ on this one pal.

Thes One - Northwestern Bell |

I'm currently working in an assembly line of CD and CD case creation with Jason and Nick. I'm burning their band's newest demo and they're cutting and gluing cases for said demos. It reminds of the good ol' days making punk rock demos of tag board for le mal du pays demos. Perhaps I'm stuck in the past but i find it hard to not play music and think of all the great times I had playing music with those guys.
I guess it just reminds me of the passion I had for playing music. It seemed so much easier back then to write songs. I just wish I could find the niche I once had. Being able to come up with ideas and somehow throwing them together in such a way you couldn't feel any better about it. I hope one day I'll be able to play a show again... one day.

Since I woke up I've been waiting for the sun to break through the clouds and lavish my house with some kind of temporary warmth. Now that this has happened I can take off a few layers of jackets.... I've spent the morning (and an hour into the afternoon) deciding on what to do with myself today. Should I be cleaning my kitchen? Perhaps getting an oil change or washing my car? Maybe I should be writing music... After much thought I called my sister and told her I'm coming over to hang out. I drive by her house all to often and I think to myself; "what if i just popped in to say hi?" Then I realize it's 2 in the morning and she's more than likely asleep.
Last weekend really made me think about the people I associate with including: my family, my close friends, my far friends, my close but far friends, my acquaintances, and the people I've met since I moved out here. I constantly wonder what they're doing and where they're going. Everyone has their own plans but I feel like I'm just now realizing all over how truly great my friends are. I wish I had a good way to express my feelings toward them all, let them know how much respect i have for them and what they put their time and efforts and hearts and souls and blood and sweat and tears into. Maybe I'll write everyone a letter. Who doesn't like a hand written letter??
Then it's settled: If you would like to receive and hand written letter from me send me your address via email or myspace or text or whatever and I swear on my three-legged desk I will write you asap.

Last night I witnessed an incredible video.
It was the coolest thing since sliced freakin' bread. And I slice enough bread to know who great sliced bread truly is!

It finally came much faster than I thought... As things like this usually do.
I already miss my little dog.

The daily routine is an interesting one. It's all too funny how easily we succumb to our environments and become all but a drone; the worker bee. Only after this realization is made can one think about change. However slight it may be only proves to be difficult. Finding that particular motivation that will drive to scourge the Earth and your surrounding until answers pour out of the battered soil. But, it's not that easy. It takes much patience and planning with great care. So here I sit, wanting to plan, to execute; determined to find something, anything. Not even an answer necessarily, I'll setting for a new question.

As I sit here and sip on my refreshing sun tea I can't help but reflect on TAXES. Yes, TAXES. The past few days have been quite stressful since, once again, I thought it novel to wait until the very last minute to file them. It's not that I didn't want my money back, it's just, well hell I'm not quite sure but procrastination can be a real asshole if you let it. Sure, I did bring it upon myself but at least heir done and I can sit here, sip on my refreshing sun tea, and reflect. I chose tea in honor of the infamous "Boston Tea Party" of 1773 when the colonists took a stand against the tyranny of the British Government. Because why? They didn't want to pay taxes! Not that I mind getting MY money back that I worked hard for mind you, it's just all the bullshit you have to sit through in order to get anything back. The point is: It WAS worth my time and stress but now it's over.
Which brings up another puzzlement: "Sun Tea". Why does putting tea in the sunlight make it taste so much better? Is it due to the millions of light particles that are absorbed in the brewing process infusing it with delicious photons? It's probably best answered through quantum physics. So here, if anyone can tell me why sun tea is better than regular tea I'll supply you with a lifetime.., month..., with a WEEKS supply of refreshing SUN TEA! MMM!
