I'm really looking forward to...

This weekend. Next week. 'N so on. First time in a long time.



I try talking to girls and I keep thinking of world war 3.

BSA Oath

After seeing my brothers this weekend, I've gained perspective, and am compelled to review my progress on the Oath.

Being Patient: I've been forcing myself to sleep at least 7 hours if not longer. It's a huge psychic victory. My veins no longer pump sand, I can be done with my job and want to work at the studio for more than a couple hours. It's an immense relief.

Being Trustworthy: This one was easy once I realized I don't have to please any one of you assholes anymore.

Being Loyal: My family and those I love have undergone cataclysmic scares recently, actual life and death things. Things that put my grousing square. I'm loved by those people. I've been there for them.

Being Helpful: Nah, you gotta can that noise at least 'til the winter.

Being Virtuous: My music theory kick is in full swing. I've already dedicated the fall to the radio and musiciansmanship, two things I can handle. I'm working at the studio constantly, I'm writing new things with new people, I'm excited.

Being Mindful: I'm no longer conned that things will end in a pile of dippin dots and rainbows. Conversely, I've promised myself that this next season will not end in a pile of skulls and sus4 chords.

Ecclesiastes 3

I realized today that the end of summer is soon approaching, which means there's not much time left to salvage it. I think this one may get marked down as Total Bummer Summer, or Summer-o-Hate Two Thousand Eight. That stinks because I forsee a fantastic rest of the year, but the rhymes don't come as easy for "Fall" or "Autumn". I learnt from Scott a technique for writers block that he learned at clown college, which is to make lists of 10:

Potential Names for an Awesome Q3 2008
1) Don't Make Me LOL Fall
2) Scrapin' Bottom Autumn
3) A-man-had-children-And-He-taught-em-Up-n-at-em-In-the-Autumn
4) When Life Turns Brown
5) The Cops G'autumn
This isn't worth another 5.

addm.
6) Best Believe I'm Rubbin B'autumn
