I just want to live a decent life, in a decent house, with an incredible girl. I don't want to be great.
I wrote this approximately 10 years ago. I feel like I've done a decent job at living up to this. There are things I could have done with my life that I didn't do because I was more interested in one girl or another. I suppose I could be better off had I made other decisions. I could also be worse off. But I have a decent life. I live in a decent house, that I own. I'm married to an incredible girl. She loves me and supports me and takes care of me. There are a few times where we are having conversations and I realize how lucky I am to be with this girl who thinks so much like me. At the end of the day (It's just past midnight right now, so I suppose it is actually the end of the day.) I'm doing OK. I make decent money, I have more things than I could need. I have an awesome cat. And I have an incredibly cute five month old son.
I spend most mornings with Nathan. He smiles all the time and giggles and his face lights up when I come into the room. It's awesome. It won't be like that forever and I'm really enjoying it right now.
My life isn't perfect. I wish I had more friends. I wish I had more time to listen to records. I wish the sports teams I followed would win more often. I wish I wasn't such an introverted weirdo. I wish I could take BJJ classes. I wish I made more money. My life isn't perfect, but who's is? I'm doing ok.
Stagedives.
