8:18am: Man And Wife, The Latter (Damaged Goods)
I'm growing out my hair like it was when I was single it was longer than I'd know you I had no money then I had no worries then at all but with such a high standard of living I just feel like I'm dying I would start an argument but you can barely even talk but there is always good reason for your silence you have to take care of some business so I fix your plate and I stay out of the way and you will stay like that forever right in front of your computer you'll look up one day but you won't recognize me so now you want to change you read a letter from a lawyer want to take me out to dinner want to bury me under a mound of shopping bags like it would really make a difference or make up for your disinterest I'm a bill you pay I'm a contract you can't break and it is like I'm under water or on an endless escalator I just go up and up but I don't ever reach the top and it reads just like the bible twenty centuries of scandal, I guess it all depends on how you interpret it the word is love the word is loss the words are damaged goods that I what I am a lifetime gets chalked up to an experience coincidence we are chained to the events

6:31pm: your eyes an tell so many lies
well im at work....today was busy as fuck...god i cant wait to get another job................this town is so unsettling...makes me want to quote a line from a soundbite on a reaver cd....it goes"im just passing through".....i wonder if that is ho my life is gonna feel from now on...minnesota felt the same way...i am holding onto what i feel as i have left as tight as i can...and that is a few of my friends and my band....and my friends consist mostly of my band....the more i find out hwo people are the moe i wish i never knew them...i am just looking forward to moving i think the whole band is in fact i know they are....i really missed my mom this holiday...more so than last year...my friends from minnesota called and wished me a happy turkey day it was nice to hear from them..makes me miss them though they were having a huge house party...gosh i miss those...ahhh last night i larned one our new songs on bass it was tight but i have a blister on my finger now...man i wanna see adrian and tony before they leave......keep it sad and low

2:10am: you got time for everyone but me....for everyone but me....
well today was ok in some ways and in some not...on the lighter side shay bought me a mineral cd which is kick ass...i got a copy of our show from josh...and he headed off to hobbs he wanted me to go but i didnt feel like going out of town....saw mr powell at the mall hes a cool mofo....on the not so light side people have been talking mad immature shit on our band on our own fuckin board... which is super fuckin gay....i dont even wanna play shows with bands from around here they say our crowds and fans are nothing but a bunch of preps and jocks...well then dont play shows with us or come you dip shits ...but yet they still wanna play shows with us.....i think we are gonna start bringing in more bands and playing less with bands from around here which is cool with me and plus it will get us more exposure and hook ups to play out of town with....and i think i am gonna stay off of the net more like on messengers for alot of reasons....too much shit talking and bull with chicks going on....and the other reason is i wanna see if how much certain people want my company and friendship to see if they will actually call me to spend time with me and all that... i am just tire dof being dicked around....like this one person says they wanna hang out and then never calls back and others are like i wanna get to know you more and hang out more but then they go and do stuff with other people when they could with me so therfore how could you get to know someon more to actually move on and have something.....i am just tired of having to be the one to take the intiative tod o things... so i am gonan stop and just do my own thing if they want something more then they will take the intiative and make things happen cos i am just tired......i will see their true feelings by this ....well i hear the bed calling......

9:32am: never going back
its really weird....the way that i have been feeling for the last few weeks.....im not as sad as i used to be....it seemed when i hung around a certain person i dwelled on my sadness....it never stopped until i cut myself from them...it seemed as though their unhappiness bled onto me...and now i am doing well they seem to be doing the same...gosh one thing though that does bring a bit of unhappines is the band...i wish we had full committment by all members....well i should say 2.......i get so frustrated with them.....and it also seems we are havong artistist conflicts as well...sometimes i wanna quit but that would be throwing away my goal.....
