It is increasingly clear how much you can learn about anothers' mistakes and misfortunes. It is interesting to stop and look at other peoples' lives and wonder where they will end up. It is also interesting to stop and look where people have ended up, and wonder what their lives were like. For instance, I saw an obese homeless woman eating out of the dumpsters behind a strip of restaurants. I saw a homeless man with unbathed skin and filthy hair wearing a clean and pressed suit with a pink, silk tie. Intriguing.
Me and David spent the last four days in Los Angeles. Visiting other states really makes me hate Arizona that much more. David bought us VIP tickets at the Laugh Factory on Sunset Blvd. where we saw Dane Cook live. All new material. He is spectacular live. Went shopping at the Beverly Center and bought more new cologne (the collection grows), a French Connection shirt, and new Lacoste shirt. Hookah is probably the only thing Arizona has on California. It was a spectacular trip and it's depressing that it will be the last of its kind, at least for a while.
I feel bad because I missed Trenna's birthday by an hour and forty five minutes. I'm an asshole.
I'll most likely be gone in two months. I probably will not ever be back.
You ever just want to start a new life? I don't, but it looks like there's not a lot of room for discussion. Well that's not really true. It's not like I don't have the power to stay. I could do it. But why set myself back in finances, and more importantly, time? Why stay in a place I will not be in five years. Why invest time into people and things that will not matter in ten years? I can't do that. There are very few people, realistically, close enough to me that I would hold on to. I could easily say that the number is less than the digits on one of my hands. I will take this as a positive change. A challenge that will only better my character. I can only learn more of life from this. I know I will like it where I am going, and I am sure I will meet new people and adjust well.
The Fray - Vienna
The day's last one-way ticket train pulls in
We smile for the casual closure capturing
There goes the downpour
There goes my fare thee well
There's really no way to reach me
There's really no way to reach me
There's really no way to reach me
'Cause I'm already gone
There's so many words that we can say
Spoken upon long-distance melody
This is my hello
This is my goodness
There's really no way to reach me
There's really no way to reach me
There's really no way to reach me
'Cause I'm already gone
Maybe in five or ten yours and mine will meet again
Straighten this whole thing out
Maybe then honesty need not be feared as a friend or an enemy
But this is the distance
And this is my gameface
There's really no way to reach me
There's really no way to reach me
Is there really no way to reach me?
Am I already gone?
So this is your maverick
And this is Vienna
