A lot of Freaks and Geeks watching has been going on in my life since i got the box set for christmas. Also a lot of rock band playing. Jamie and I have been sharpening our skills. It's only a matter of timem before we join He-Man and the rest of the Masters of the Universe.
A lot of bundling up has been going on as well, since it's been hella cold lately. Saturday night plastiq passion had a show in Hoboken and Jess and I could not find parking for the life of us. We ended up parking like 5 blocks away and then ran to the bar.
My phone met its match the other day when it tried to battle the toilet. I believe it's last words were something like "water?! anything but that!! NOOOOOoooooooo....." And then it was gone. Suddenly what used to be my phone is now nothing but a piece of plastic. I wonder where phones go when they die. Perhaps their phone-souls are lifted up to that great radio shack in the sky.
right now i sit at my desk, drinking coke, crunching on some pumpkin seeds.
There is work to be done, of course, but what's the rush? let me reflect on my life first.
the year 2009 has come and gone and i have to say, i was a little sad to see it go. Usually I don't pay much attention to the whole New Year thing. The only time i notice it is when I'm in school and I accidentally write the wrong date at the top of the page. But this time I'm not in school. This is the first time I'm not in school at the beginning of a year. Actually that's not true because I took a year off school after high school. But for some reason I don't really count that year, because the whole time i was trying to get into school and I knew school was in my future.
Now is different though. I'm like a real adult all of a sudden and instead of going to school I go to my full time job in Manhattan.
Is that weird or what?
Mentally I haven't fully accepted it yet. It still almost feels like some weird dream. I think I stopped growing up at the age of 16 because i really don't feel much different from how i felt then. Either I'm growing slow or I grew up too fast....not really sure.
But 2009 was a good year for me. After much anticipation I finally graduated college. I even won some awards. I managed to get a full time job one week BEFORE i graduated, which baffles me considering the state of the economy. Plastiq Passion recorded an album which is right now in the very final stages and will be available to the ever-patient public in February. Plastiq Passion also got some serious radio play and played a whole lot of shows. Our little stamp on the music scene is ever-growing. And did i mention i went to Disney World?
Of course there is the fact that I got hit by a bus in 2009, but the important thing to take away from that is that not only am i still alive, but i was told by the doctors that there should be no permanent damage.
Granted my ass still hurts (bruised tailbone) and my foot still hurts, but life is good.
And the icing on the cake is that I got to spend the whole year with a girl named Jessica. And kissing her at midnight on New Years eve makes me feel like 2010 might even be better.
Fingers crossed.
