Life seems to be as constant as a calandar

Throughout my days I seem to make 3 constant mistakes and things seem to happen as true as the past.

1. Girls lie... people lie.. but mostly girls. No matter how true or different they seem.

2. I ruin something when something's good.

3. I regret my "ruined something" almost immediately and refuse to let it go.

Ipod's burnt out by Brasstronaut

Plagiarism.. it's sorta good sometimes

In a kingdom by the sea,
That a maiden there lived whom you may know
By the name of Annabel Lee;
And this maiden she lived with no other thought
Than to love and be loved by me.

I was a child and she was a child,
In that princedom by the sea.
But we loved with a love that was
more than just love,
With a love even the seraphs up in heaven covet.

And that was the reason that long ago,
In that princedom asleep by the sea,
That a wind shut her body in a sepulcher,
Buried in the sea,
That bore my sweet darling away from me.

Oh, the angels they envied us—envied our love.
Yes, that was the reason the wind came out,
Stirred the air and made the waves shake madly,
Killing my Annabel Lee. Oh my Annabel Lee.

Our love it was strong. So strong
That neither the angels up in heaven
Nor the demons in the sea,
Can ever dissever my soul from the
Soul of my Annabel Lee.

The silence you make when you want to make noise

You can' t lose everything if you don't have anything!

What a bitter sweet perfect statement. My life is dealing with some rather BIG upcoming changes.. and I don't really know how to embrace them.

It comes back too the question.. what do you do if the person you think is your one doesn't really care.. if you give up?? Do you push and push because in your heart you realize they are in fact your one? OR do you just let shit free and have them come back to you? There's the obvious old statement " if you love it let it free and if it loves you, it'll come back" But how true is that really?? We all know that love fades and we also all know that given the right time.. the right setting and the right amount of booze.. anyone and I mean ANYONE can connect with any one other person.. yeah that might not have longevity but.. that's enough in my eyes to show that it wasn't TRUE LOVE.. and if it's not true love.. well then what the fuck were you doin in the first place other than being animals???

People make mistakes.. lord knows I've made my share.. and I live by the fact it' s not that you make a mistake.. it' s how you come back from it! Well... what if the person you think is your one.. doesn't come back from it? Was she truly your one? Was she just blind and you didn't do enough to make her realize? Or is it all just random and you hope to snag someone who can deal with you for the rest of your life?

I come to the same conclusion and please.. correct me if I'm wrong.. but love is love.. and if it's true.. won't that come out eventually?? But how long do you wait before you just give up? And if it was true love.. would you have given up in the first place? Which isn't really a conclusion anyway.. it's just another question!

So what it comes down to really.. is that love is just another un-answered question.. like "where do we go when we die?" and "why did John Bonham die so early?" No one knows.. but the one thing I do know.. that if you have that feeling.. make sure the other person knows it.. life's to fucking short.. it might not last.. but why the fuck wouldn't you embrace such a feeling when it's around? If you love someone.. don't lose them.. because who knows.. you could stumble into a fumigated house and fall asleep at any given time (don't act like you haven't wondered).


Loves love.. hopefully it lasts but there's a good chance it won't.. and if it doesn't.. how do you move on other than to stay up till 6:14 in the morning drinking living in misery and realizing that you just let the one slip away? You don't.. you repeat said steps until life ends.

You can't lose everything if you don't have anything.

Howlin' too every single thing La Dipsute's made

Love, love, love, love?

Ahh love.. it's a mother fucker eh??

What is love?? Is it a song? Is it the feeling you get from the song? Is it a person? Is it a hobby? Is it an addiction? Who knows what love.. really is??

Maybe there are different forms of love.. but then how do you judge which you love more? And you're obviously gonna love things differently.. so does that mean you love it more or less than other loves??

What if love's just an appreciation that you see in something/someone/some action? Does that mean everything significant in your life means you loved it?? Love should mean MUCH more than that.

Maybe the word LIKE has been pushed into something that it doesn't mean.. and love has been pushed to boundaries it shouldn't have been?

Love in my opinion should be saved for times when you say love because you cannot contain it.. because that's all that flows from your lips when you speak of it. Not because it's a "go-to" word! Use the word LIKE for times like that. Like means you enjoy it. Love means you LOVE it. Bottom line.. if you love it.. you KNOW you love it.. you don't question.. you don't use it as a filler in looking for a better word to fill your lack of a better fucking word.

Now obviously there are different layers of love.. I love cooking shows.. but do I love them the same as I love my nephew?? No way! But does it mean I love it less?? Fuck I don't know!!!!

Only word of advice is.. if you find something/someone/some action that you actually love... don't lose it! Embrace it with everything.. because.. well it's obvious.. that's why we fucking live right?? To find things we love.

Jamming: Nothing in the back-round but Chopped. But I have From a Second Story Window in my head.. does that count?

I get older and they stay the same age....

Or at least I wish it was that way.. it seems more like I stay the same age and everyone around me get's older.

I realize im only 23, but im in no way shape or form where I thought i'd be at this age. My friends and family around me are getting older, gettin hitched, having kids and buying houses (in that order) And some might say.. im young at heart.. but I really don't think that's what it is. I'd like to believe it's a combo between still wanting to have pure un-touched fun and the fear of realizing that pure un-touched fun is slowly coming to a hault.

When I was growing up I was under the impression that it went from: school to work to wife to kids to retiring to death. And you'd just know when and what to do with these things when ya got there. Like I turn 18 and CLICK light goes on and I know how to do it. But sadly.. the click didn't ever really go off and I just started shooting from the hip on what to do. And here it is.. 5 years later and it still feels like im aiming with both eyes closed.

Here soon, big changes need to be made.. maybe something drastic.. maybe something as sublte as giving up swearing. Who knows? All I know is I don't know if I need to "grow up" per say but I do know that I need to get to the point where I can provide and be ready for whatever future lie in front of me. OR I can just move into my dads and work a part time job that pays just enough to pay for internet so I can beat off with tear lube. Either way im sure i'll still impress the ladies.

The happy days... and the not so happy days

In a galaxy filled with multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers and laughers.. lies a percentage (depending on who you're arguing with on how big or small that percentage is) it's a percentage none the less. Of people who actually need and use pills to their regular dosage and purpose. The other LARGE percent abuse and have or will eventually become dependent on their choice of poison.

In a rather small populated area I still could place a wager on that I couldn't throw a rock without hitting someone who's becoming increasingly dependent on pills. Since when did regular stress from a regular day classify as depressed?? Since when did having a headache justify the use of Vicodin?? I don't think any of our ancestors utilized these things to get through the day.

I guess my curiousity for this topic finally fell in my lap when a friend of mine.. whom i've known for sometime.. revealed to me that he's now on anti-depressants because school's stressing him out. Now im obviously not a doctor.. so I couldn't diagnose him either way.. what I do know is that sounds like a pretty lousy excuse for depressed. I obviously understand the fact that peoples chemistery is different and what could effect others heavily could roll off another persons shoulder. But 70 years ago.. if someone was stressed.. they got through it. I think with it being so accessible people find themselves looking for a reason to take it. I mean why not??? Happiness in a bottle.. who isn't intrigued?? But the sad reality is all they are doing is dumbing down your senses.. making you less aware of your surroundings. Call it a "crack-pot theory" if you will.. but we all know America and any other country don't ever really make anything strictly for the benefit of YOU.. there's always an under-lining where they are gaining profit and or making something off of you.

So let's talk the other side for a moment.

I don't mean to bad talk medicine or people who take it for justifiable reasons. Medicine is obviously there for a reason and most times i'd like to assume for a good reason. Certain people do need things to lift them up and get them through the day.. certain people have pain that's crippling them and without pain killers wouldn't be able to function I GET THAT. I understand that.. im not heartless... I just always like to pose the question.. "Where would you be if they didn't have that technology???"

I always have to revert back to the past. I mean there have always been means to cope with problems.. some being healthy (working out) some being unhealthy (booze, drugs). But the fact comes down to it.. as a population.. we're getting weaker, dumber and more medicated. God who knows in 40 years we could all be bubble boys (girls) because we've weakened our immune systems to the point where living outside of a sterile enviorment would kill us.

In short: We're becoming a nation of pussies and push-overs. If you NEED a pill take it.. but if you're taking it to cope or because you THINK you need it.. take a second before you pop it and ask yourself "Where would I be without this?"

Jammin: Bear vs. Shark

It's when I seen the evil that people do.. that's when I learned to sing the blues

Does anyone remember their first scary movie?? I do.. and although regarded as a joke of a film Candyman ruined/created my adolescence. I don't think I went to the bathroom the same till I was old enough to find out Santa's bitchass was a fake.

7 years old is a bit young for a scary movie.. but tell my old man that.

I don't hold any remorse or weird anger to watching that movie so young, so don't get that idea (you critical son of a bitch). I'm actually grateful. Seeing such macabre things at that young age (although it ruled the world of my nightmares) was eye opening. I still remember realizing death at that age and asking my parents "So when you die you don't come back?" and just digesting that answer of.. "nope".

I think it sent a tidal wave of weird things my way.. and im almost positive it played/plays a pivotal part in my life now. I coulda been a goth for christsakes.. then where would I be??? Burning down a church and rockin Cradle of Filth albums.. thats where!!!

Let's just thank whoever ya think controls your destiny that when I was 12 I decided to go with a Slipknot album instead of an ICP album. So for that I thank you Candyman.. way to stop me from becoming an early on Juggalo!!!

Moral of the story.. fuck your kids up young and they wont paint their faces.. oh wait didn't Slipknot dress in uniforms and wear masks?? (cough cough)

Moral of the story.. be a good parent and listen to your kid(s)

Soil and Six Feet Under

Every once and awhile.. a bus shaped sense of reality hits you. When it hits you it's the most sobering/miserable/fantastic thing you've either never felt or haven't felt in a LONG time.

Now, maybe I drink too much.. but these events happen when im drinking (most often). But I can assure these events don't happen as often as everytime I drink. Im 100% aware that we'll die.. and where we go when that happens is speculative for obvious reasons. (note) I used to care so much about where or where we didn't go when said event happend. But whether it be age or maybe I heard something as small as a lyric in a song.. but my path.. my trail of thought has changed.

This is not a piece about religion! (we'll save that for a drunken tirade night)

I was sitting in an un-cozy camping chair when I looked at my nephew (for probably the 100,000th time.. roughly) and it hit me.. I love that lil' shit. It's extremely easy to tell someone you love them on a constant basis. But to mean it.. TRULY mean it.. is rare. For me anyway. Now not to say that when I say I love you.. doesn't mean I don't feel it.. but just at that point I know that at some point i've felt it and or otherwise am aware of my love for you. But on these rare occasions.. the planets align and im aware and in tune of my love. And at that time I knew that if anything happened to my nephew it would result in some type of violence that would not go un-recognized.

In short- I think it's very vital to sit back and although most times you think the people that you care about are aware that you love them.. they might not. But sit back and examine and remind yourself that you're lucky to have them and you're not quite a hermit fuck yet. It's awesome to be selfish.. but not awesome to neglect on love. Don't be selfish and die without those people knowing your love.. and since we don't know when that will happen.. make it an everyday thing.

Fuck

Twilight: A Mormons Attempt At Being "Controversial"

Ahhh Twilight.. Where do I begin? Well let's start with I am not jumping on the I hate Twilight bandwagon... im old school hating Twilight.

I understand the point of the book, it makes perfect sense to write a book about vampires being lovers. Hell everyone is on that trend right now. What I struggle to understand is why do they make them so.. for the lack of a better word.. Greg Louganis-ey.

She makes vampires look like such pansies! Glitter?? Really?? Taunting dudes?? Come on! What is the obsession with making vampires accessible and likable to people? THEY'RE FUCKING VAMPIRES!!! Aren't these the dudes that are supposed to suck your blood?? And live in caskets and the only way to kill them is with a fucking dagger?? To the heart?? That shits hardcore.. but now.. now they're glittering with gold or silver or whatever turdy color they thought would make them look cooler to 10-82 year old horny un-fulfilled women.

The one upside to this joke is the soundtrack.. a soundtrack I never would have looked at. (Paramount best be sending my g/f some residual checks) For the second one at least. It's not bad.. but then again it's very hard to be bad when played against a hunk of turd like that. They could've put Weird Al Yankovic singing his version of Sunday Bloody Sunday "Monday Coffee Monday" and it would've looked like Zoso.

Bottom line.. if vampires were real they'd be rolling over in their coffins and walking into sunlights over this one.. show them some respect and watch a good vampire movie (cough) (cough) Once Bitten.



Currently straight jockin: Elliott Smith- Twilight

Random thoughts on a Wednesday

1)I've come to find out that in life there are 2 things better made generic over name brand. 1.(Gummy worms or gummy anything really)2.(Tennis Shoes)
2)Could you imagine if House was a real person and he got sick and you were the poor sap that got him?? Trying to diagnose that asshole would deserve its own t.v series in itself.
3)I don't know about you.. but im over-tired of bands names that start off with AS or IF. That's cool your bands name is an action or a result of not doing an action.. but really.. how many actions do we need made into band names: " As I did the dishes" "If the dishes weren't done" Change it up a bit.. or just cap this whole name attempt and call your band AS IF. NONE WILL FOLLOW!!
4)Natural cause deaths; I realize it's sad when people die.. and sometimes the families choose not to disclose the reasons of it. But im tired of this trend where it seem as though people are dying by nothing but natural causes.. it's got me more worried than AIDS and cancer combined. How do you contract natural causes anyway?? Interacting with nature?
5)Who's stoked for Toy Story 3?? I know I am.
6)Along the same lines as the band name complaint. Why is it that every singer/songwriter over the past 12 years compares themselves to Elliott Smith?? I can see this being a marketing ploy... I mean i've bought on that wagon numerous times. But really??? It's not like back in the 70's Simon and Garfunkel compared themselves to Led Zeppelin to sale records. The only thing most bands or songwriters have in common with Elliott is the fact that they write songs!
7)It's weird to think that poster makers main demographic is teenagers. When I was young.. it seemed like buying a poster was an "older person" thing to do... "oh yeah just bought a KoRn poster.. here comes the ladies and my drivers license". But now that im older.. I hang up a poster and think "God my friends will never forget this and welp.. theres goes the ladies" But I don't care what you say.. Night of the living dead poster is the coolest thing to ever grace a blank wall space.
8)Fuck what the so called "experts" say.. I cannot have enough pillows.

I'm not a writer nor do I pretend to be. I have this in hopes that one day I may be able to spit out something tolerable enough that someone else enjoys it. I love music, as im sure will show in what I write or intend to write. Take it or leave it
