09/01/07 I've been having a wonderful summer. I feel like I've grown a lifetime. Everything that is coming out of my mouth with be cliche and boring, but it's true. I stopped looking ahead for a future that never comes and started living the life I have made for myself... And I'm enjoying it. I don't mind reading books instead of looking akward at a bar, I do my best when anger rises in me to see why and let it peel away, I'm enjoying adventures again, I'm enjoying people again.... I'm tired of not giving a shit, being a ghost at parties, being an actor during conversations. Nothing has changed except my perception. My band hasn't sold a shitload of albums since last summer, I lose 9 times out of 10 with my ambitions, my dayjob still tests my patience at every twist and turn, people still take shots at me, but what the fuck am I going to do except go outside and smile. I have a ton of people I've invited into my life and we're on the same boat. I'm tired of this emperors new clothes shit. We all wear masks in person and it takes time to get to know people. I'm peeling away the jealousy I feel of people who have it better off than me... Nobody has it better off. And I don't have a bad life either. I'm writing a ton of new songs and catching up with alot of old friends. I'm doing a better job cleaning my room and find myself getting excited when the phone rings instead of dreading interaction. I understand there will always be assholes in this world who need company... But I will do my best to avoid such situations... I hope this doesn't make the character suck when I'm asked to play his role.... Oh who gives a shit. If you get a chance please go out and buy Elliot Smith's "From A Basement On A Hill"... I'm not going to review it... The story of that album speaks for itself. But it's the album I have been listening to the most this summer. That's about it. Thank you.
