(no subject)
while i cant pull together the update i want to do because i feel like crud from jetlag and the general drain from the holidays on your sanity, i wanted to post something. next update will be the one worth reading. skip over this one and just say "hi."
What was bad about 2009? 2009 is over with and i think like everyone else im kind of glad. 2008 was probably the best year of my life and i doubt anything will top that. it would take a lot. but anyways about 2009. over all id say it was a pretty horrible year. all of the deaths of people i didnt think id ever live to see die, one after another. then my band taking a hiatus didnt really make it all that much more amazing, im still not sure what to think about that. part of me worries that we will all get used to not being in a band or not having to be in fall out boy and just not want to be anymore. just say eff it and throw it all away. but maybe by then it wont matter as much to me. its just weird going from 10 years of a band to like none. its disheartening that our favorite album we ever did and were most proud of was also our last one and went over so poorly. so yeah it wont be that much of a shock if we just go our separate ways.
How weird is it to go from having a band and touring to staying at home with your family? its way weird. at first i was sort of bored, i didnt understand what i was doing sitting at home with my son while the mrs. was out on broadway. i felt kind of restless. the whole idle hands thing i guess. but then it started to come together and feel ok to just not have 50 things i need to do in one day. i guess this is how i can improve myself as a general human being at least for my wife haha. i think everyone has this bad idea of me and its nobodys fault but my own and then the media just ran with it. its like they find one string to pull the whole sweater apart. (i hope that put weezer in your head, ash.)
Do you ever get homesick? totally. i think its worse now that ive gotten so used to being around the little guy and seeing everything new he discovers and does each day, and having ash come home to me at night after her show (or shows on some days when she does back to back ones. not sure how she pulls all that off. go see it if you havent, shes amazing). its kind of crazy how last night just a few hours away from the nest and i already was homesick for my wife and the little guy. unfortunately for new years i had obligations to dj at mirage. i would have loved to be with my family, but you would not believe how much i got paid to do it. i feel kinda bad tho because in a way its like i was bribed away from my family or something. but it was 30 grand. and i dont really have a band right now so i feel like it was sort of my obligation as Man of the house to go provide for my family.
jessica simpson's sn here: i've come back from... the refrigerator, to tell you to update! that's all. (: i threw this in for the fun of it. i am updating right now.
If you could only spend $10 on a date night, what would you do? haha. its called being married. you keep the $10 and you stay home and watch a movie on tv.
Will we destroy our own planet? we are right now.
What's the one thing you'd like to be remembered for? uh probably not the nude picture incident, the bruised face, the "emo" haircut, the feud with the killers, the guyliner, the "gay above the waist" comment. id actually just like to be remembered as a decent guy who was in a band that wasnt all that bad and played music they believed in. a guy that was the best husband and father he could be. but i will probably be remembered as a douchebag. oh well.
ps. in case anyone wondered or noticed or whatever, this is why my update took forever for me to get up:
ashlee simpson-wentz's sn here: im going to come dancing in the room and distract you
