(no subject)
It's been a while since I updated this here thingy-ma-jig without going off on a negative rant or complaining about something... so I'll try not to for once...
I've been really at peace lately in my solitude with an occational visit from my friend... haha... Recently I thought back on the past... Le Sigh... about various things. Usually this happens to happen when a mediokre change is about to take place that affects my daily living... This time it happens to be the fact that I'm about to get rid of my truck and car and get a new Element. It's not really that big of a change... I mean vehicals are just material objects... but its more the memories that coincide with them that one really attaches one's self to. I got my truck when I was 18 and have had it ever since. Wow that's a hair over 6 years. I paid a whole $2000 to an A/C guy for it. I remember so many things I've done, places I've gone, and good times I've had in it... such as all the trips I used to make to Holiday to visit Greg or pick him up and go drive around and do nothing... well nothing of importance, but still fun. I miss the smell of that house... a kind of new, clean, yet comforting smell. I miss the fun and stories created in that truck... such as the story of the "Telephone Masturbation Man..." HAHAHA!!! Good times!
I also miss East End... oh so badly... Which was where I drove my truck almost nightly. I remember all the time I made a trip up there with Greg or Mikey. That was the coolest place I think I've ever known about. Good people to talk, to laugh with, to bounce ideas off of... even if some were a bit nieve. I remember listening to Mikey freestyle to a beebop from... shit... can't remember that guy's name and Skyler. Cool guy though. I remember gettin sooo blazed before going there... yea I know that sounds funny right... HAHAH!!! But man was it fun. I remember all the street races I drove out to with a various passenger along side me. Shit... I remember when Shanon came out with me one night... he was amazed. Even Greg got a piece of that action. He was even impressed on how it was an organized subculture with a different kind of language and communication between people that were apart of it... all to stay one step ahead of the cops.
I remember the dates I went on using that truck as transportation... ok so that's not a high point there... HAHAHAHA!!!!! But still they are memories... no matter how bad they are nothing should be forgotten.
Now this is just short from what really comes to mind... but I thing it's a broad accurate representation.
Then there's my car which I got a little over 3 years ago I beleive. Yea I turned 21 in that car... I remember on my b-day Kevin put a guilt trip on Joe that it was my birthday so he went and bought me a 6 pack of Bud Light... HAHA... hell yea!!!
Then there are the trips I made in it... OH MAN!!! I've been everywhere in it. Actually it's taken me the furthest from my place of birth then anything else has. All the way to Atlanta last year... I remember the trips to Orlando with Kevin... Shit... I remember the first night he talked me into going... Wait a sec... that's it!!! That I beleive was what really made him and I friends. I mean we hung out and shit... But it was more of bullshitting and ranting and all... HAHA... But I remember him convincing me to go. I even remember thinking how it was a big step to do something just random again. Everything since I gave up drugs had been planned for the most part... at least as far as waking up on someone strange's couch. I remember the trip there... and that he had only been there once... which he was driven and he was drunk. HAHAHAHA.... "Semora Road... YES SEMEN THAT'S IT!!!!" HAHAHA... once again good times. I remember waking up on the couch the next morning to see Trina standing there... tee hee... she looked sooo cute... But enough of that. But I did have some good times in Orlando... wether it was good or bad at the time... it's still good now. (the double footsie game...) HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
Then I remember when Greg drug me over to Sebastian Inlet for the first time to go surfing. Once again little did I know what a small event would make such a big difference in my life.
Then I remember my trips to Gainesville. I remember my cheasy date with Sally that Sarah had set me up with to the woodser... hahahahaha... wow that was awesome. I was so trashed. I remember Sarah and I doing a stumbling dash to her dorm building cause both of us had to blast force from our urinary tracks... HOLY CRAP!!!! I actually pissed for 5 minutes straight...
Then of course a couple months later Sarah and I happened to hook up... and all the trips once more I made to Gainesville. Crap... that was on New Years... well... actually I think New Years was just when we first looked at each other a little bit different. I remember the typical goodby hug that seemed like it never ended. hmm... Anyways... I miss the trips to Gainesville... to just wonder around and drink coffee from the Oh So Powerfull Coffee God that distibuted his goods within a machine at turlington. haha... good stuff that was. I remember waking up on the top bunk all cold and stuff and wandering down to the guy's side of the building to take a shower...
Then there's all the trips to the east coast. Whether it be with someone... umm... with Greg or all on my lonesome... I've made lots of trips over there.
Once again this is only a wee bit of the fun I've had... but I couldn't begin to put everything in here at this hour.
I know I've gone on and on with this story... but it was fun to remember. But I think the moral of this isn't that I'll miss my vehicals... because in all it only gets you from A to B... But more I will miss and still do miss all the fun and memories that these objects have been apart of creating. Ny just thinking about my car or truck I am able to get a very descriptive recolection of the past 6 years and different events that have happened there within. I know I'll just create more good memories... but these past 6 years have been awesome. I got a chance to have some of the coolest roomates that one could ask for... I got the Brian Show everyday!!!!!! :-D :-D :-D I got to date some cool people... even if they did create some sore spots in my mind. I got to make a couple new friends... that have actually stuck around for a while... weeheeheeheird!!!! Hell... because I got my car might just be where I am professonally. You see... I did want to go back to school... however if it wasn't for Keven and his family harrassing me and giving me advice all the time about getting back into school and actually having a friend that was in school I might not of gone back. And if I didn't happen to have my Honda that I trusted with my life...(mainly because I built it) I may not of made that first trip to O-town... seing how Kevins VW bus wasn't really the stable vehical to take on long trips.
Then again I might be forgetting some things... some key events that happened prior to this... but you never know.
Ok well I think I'm gonna crash now so I can wake in a couple hours for work... Till next time...
