so today, i talked to my mom. i realized we are the only sane ones left in my family.

you know what, i have a message for you, and youll never read it. someday, when youre a bit more stable than you are now, ill tell you. i want to tell you today, but you wont have any of that. youre to shattered and rebuilt and all that. here it is, take notes:

life sucks. deal.
im probably the most ignorant person in the world. i have the shittiest work ethic, my living situation is less than suitable, i have girl problems, family problems, work problems, band problems, personal problems and computer problems. just like everyone else. you know what i do? i deal. life will never ever ever be perfect, and nothing can change that. not moving out. not switching schools. not getting a new job. and dont get mad at us cause we're not eager to change. our lives are unsteady just like yours, but you know what. we like how were doing. fuck, ive never been more poor, and ive never been more happy. i have 35 bucks a week to live on for the rest of the year, and im looking forward to every week.

me and jay are doing good. real good. you know what it is? its not that we love our jobs. its not that we live with each other. its not that we have tons of cool stuff to play with. its not air conditioning or a nice couch. its that we look at everything that creates the world around us and we both realize that its all good. the corn dogs, drinking water, the busted tvs, the dirty carpet. its all good. we like where we're at. you should too. when life gives you lemons, make lemonade. if life happens to give you dirt, make a little dirt statue and try to sell it for a few bucks.

now if youll excuse me, i need to find a cheap bike on ebay so i can get to work and band practice when gas prices get even more ridiculous.

p.s. this isnt to be mean, im just trying to help you out cause i love you.
