Easy Like Sunday Morning
"WOUND"-- Adverse Estate
************************
Sustain another wound
We're in love- we're at war
My heart is more than bruised
It is limp- it is sore
I'm not going to change in this life
I'm not going to stand here all damn night
I'm not going to say I love you
I'm not going to waste my time and make it right
Pulling another tooth
First it's sweet, then it's sour
My heart is more than used
Seconds turning into hours
I'm not going to change in this life
I'm not going to stand here all damn night
I'm not going to say I love you
I'm not going to waste my time and make it right
Believe another riddle
There's no when- there's no why
I'm not going to change in this life
I'm not going to stand here all damn night
I'm not going to say I love you
I'm not going to waste my time and make it right
There's no medicated way to cry
There's no wisdom for you and i
I'm swelling black and blue...
Sustain another wound
We're in love- we're at war

well i've got lots to tell vut i already wrote it to rachel once today and i don't feel like writing it all over again, so i've just pasted my email to her over here to my journal. enjoy:
hey. yea i could see the animation. it's cute... i think i might steal it from you:) anyways, i'm writing without my contacts, so i may make some mistakes. my last pair fell out at work and got ruined, so now i have to set up an appointment to get a new prescription (which i was planning on doing anyways... i think i told you about the "cat-eye" contacts i wanted to get?...) anyways, halloween was kinda interesting. the night prior i went with jaime to the bunnyman's bridge, then we went to the old mill. we have this thing about spook-hunting, it's kinda strange but it keeps our lives interesting. we'll research a haunted area of northern virgiinia, and then we'll go test the legends. we have our limits though. for instance we would not go hanging out at the bunnyman bridge on halloween night. not that we put a whole lot of stock into the legend, but we don't want to be taking any chances. we met up with these two stoned girls that were there and ended up climbing to the top of the bridge. we walked along the tracks for awhile but then this train came out of nowhere, so we all just kinda dove off the track- except this one dumb girl who thought it would be cool to play chicken with the thing. it was only moving at like 70 mph and she dove off the track finally like a second before it would have hit her. so that was kinda creepy. the next day we had a costume contest at work. do you remember jason aldrige? he used to follow us around and i called him "poser boy." well anyways, he works with me. the winner of the costume contest was supposed to get a paid day off work, so i thought i would be a shoe-in to win the thing. i dressed up as a call-girl, and apparently i was looking rather convincing. had it all too- the wig, the make-up, fake boobs, mini-skirt, muscle shirt, knee-high boots, thigh-high fishnets, and i seran-wrapped my stomach to make myself look extra thin. it was cool. i thought i looked sexy (and actually, one guy in the cubicle next to me had to move because he said he got an erection from looking at me, lol.) so anyways i thought for sure i was going to win. even the spervisors were like, "damn." but jason came im as edward scissorhands, and his costume was pretty detailed. he looked very authentic, not quite a johny depp, but very tim burtonish. he even had a pair of scissorhands made with real scissors so when he moved his fingers they made the right sound. it was very cool. they've narrowed the winner of the contest down to me and him, and they still haven't decided yet. anyways, after work i went to woodbridge to patty's halloween party. it was fun. just another of the usual keg parties she always throws, except this time everyone was in costume. and there was a cover charge of 5 bucks at the door. they bought 2 kegs and a bunch of other shit so they figured the admission fee would cover what they spent. something like 80 people showed up so it turned out to be a pretty good idea. and they had a raffle too (another costume contest) and the winner got 200 bucks. i didn't stay awake long enough to see who won though because i passed out. the party ddn't start till about 11 but i had gotten there at 9, and i started drinking as soon as i got there, so by the time it started i was already torn up. needless to say i didn't last very long into the actual event. someone poured foam all over me in my sleep though and charlie thought i had puked on the couch. i was a little insulted, but i wasn't sure which was more insulting, the fact that charlie actually thought i was irresponsible enough to puke all over someone else's couch, or that some asshole actually thought it'd be cool to vandalize me in my sleep. basically, halloween was a blurry mess. it was fun, but in the end it was just a mess. oh, my favorite costume that i saw all day was charlie's. he dyed his goatee black and painted his eyes black, put on a cape, a long blonde wig and a huge fuzzy nlack top-hat (he looked just like rob zombie, the spitting image!) yea so his costume was pretty bangin. as far as the album, i finished my vocal parts for 2 songs. all they were missing were my vocals, so now we have 2 more done, but other than that we haven't really worked on it much. we're not trying to slow down at all, just some things have gotten in the way that we need to take care of before we can continue to focus on the project. nothing huge, just you know, me getting pullled over and not being able to see. charlie's having some issues with his friends and guys... he's really frustratd because he wants a guy but he can't find one. i think he's better off single, myself. *shrug* oh that reminds me, my ex girlfriend emily, the one who dumped me in september? yeah, she's making threats now, isn't that lovely? but anyways, we haven't finished the song i was going on and on about, but we have a ton of other stuff done that i wanted you to hear. i'd like to get you a copy of the cd but we only had a hundred to begin with and we sold them all. i could make a tape, but tapes suck. but anyways i want to get you a copy of this stuff 'cause it's really good, or at least i think so. i told travis you said hello. he about shit his pants over the fact that you passed that message through me, but he says hello back. he said you have to meet his wife sometime. i was going to call him last night and wish him a happy birthday but i didn't get off work till 11 (working overtime again) and i passed out as soon as i got home. maybe i'll give him a call today. i haven't really spoken to geoff myself in like 2 months. he pissed me off. nothing out of the ordinary, i suppose. he always pisses me off, but yea i must admit, sending me those pictures really hurt, and at the time i wasn't prepared to handle something like that. he knew it too but he sent them to me anyways and it was just a little over the top for me. he's a dick, has been for as long as i can remember, and i just have had enough of his bullshit. i remember when i cut my hair short a few years back, i remember him laughing at me and it pissed me off. it wasn't an easy decision then, and again he just wanted to kick me while i was already down. and that's what he does. i doesn't surprise me that he's some strange online sicko. i saw it coming. i think you pretty much know everything i've been up to since y2k. i'm trying to fill in the blanks, but i don't exactly remember every detail of it. what do you want to know about? i'm better at answering questions than telling a story. renee says that's because i'll turn an answer into a story and use the question as a topic. lol, i talk too much. so i'm told. well anyways, i think i'm going to go gas up the jet- i mean my car and begin my day. i hope your halloween was fun too. write me back. i'll talk to you later. bye.
