We've got nothing but time on our hands

I miss being a little kid. I miss being passed around the room like a picture as a baby. I miss my dad driving me around in the middle of the night just to get me to stop crying. I miss riding a bike with training wheels. I miss watching only Disney movies. I miss Lincoln Elementary. I miss being picked first for just about everything we played at recess. I miss any arguments simply being solved with "Einey Meany Miney Moe." I miss walking to my grandparents house after school to wait for one of my parents to pick me up. I miss my childhood friends. I miss having birthday parties at places like Chuck E. Cheese and Discovery Zone. I miss making my parents waking me up 7 in the morning on Saturdays so I could watch Power Rangers, X-Men, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I miss my teachers pushing me to my full potentiol. I miss getting detentions and serving them in the computer lab playing Oregon Trail. I miss going to fairs. I miss going on random family car rides to nowhere in particular. I miss believing in Santa Claus, St. Nick, The Easter Bunny, and The Tooth Fairy. I miss playing Nintendo, Sega Genesis, and Super Nintendo for hours on end. I miss board game night with my family. I miss movie night with my family. I miss trying not to giggle during sex education. I miss laughing every time someone said the phrase "Lets do it." I miss being kid that stood out from the rest of school on "Packer Day" by being decked out in 49er gear. I miss when getting dressed up for me meant putting on a pair of jeans instead of sweat or cool power ranger pajama pants. I miss my Gameboy Pocket. I miss bringing my Pokemon games and cards to school to play at recess. I miss the real, original, and good programmed Nickelodeon. I miss being healthy and in-shape. I miss spending my Monday nights obsessively watching wrestling. I miss Jordan, Aaron, Eric, and myself pretending to be the band KISS. I miss helping my dad make my halloween costumes; which were always the best. I miss thinking I knew what the song "Bawitdaba" by Kid Rock meant. I miss going into sixth grade scared shitless, not knowing anyone going there. I miss being the ridiculously shy kid at school. I miss going to demolition derbies and monster trucks with Ray. I miss going a vacation somewhere every summer with my family. I miss playing basketball by myself in my driveway. I miss being inseparable from my friends. I miss rapping and playing video games with Robbie and Brian in their basement. I miss playing night games with whoever we could get to play. I miss running with Scott in gym class saying ridiculous stuff and staring at girls asses. I miss going to friend's houses and literally not do anything. I miss doing stupid shit with Robbie, Brian, Justin, and Scott, and filming it for our movie, "Dumbass." I miss throwing parties that no one showed up too. I miss pretending to know how to skateboard. I miss trying to skateboard at Lambeau Field parking lot every other night and getting kicked out. I miss going ding-dong-ditching. I miss walking to the mall with Scott in 25 degree weather. I miss playing streetball. I miss going to the park to swing on the swings. I miss making the best of friends. I miss my first romance. I miss being kissed, hugged, cuddled and loved by someone special. I miss being more than a friend to someone. I miss having movie night every night. I miss bringing Scott on vacation with me. I miss going to Celebrate DePere and Bayfest and them actually being fun. I miss having 2 hour long conversations with Emily about nothing really. I miss someone willing to let me be a crybaby to them. I miss hanging out in Bartel's basement. I miss the MAMCO vs. WABGAC competitions. I miss sleeping at people's houses and having people sleep at my house. I miss staying up all hours of the night talking with people on AIM. I miss going bowling. I miss everyone doing something together on New Years Eve. I miss going to bonfires 4 days a week. I miss playing Pretty Pretty Princess in Terra's basement. I miss having hot tub parties. I miss spending every Friday night at The Eagles Club. I miss when everyone thought drugs and alcohol were stupid. I miss having a big second family with friends. I miss my family. I miss my friends. I miss everything I forgot to mention. I miss the memories.

I miss a lot of stuff. Really, I do. But I remember it all so well... and appreciate and love it so much.

Lets make some more memories for me to miss in a few years.
