Summer is officially over... has been for a few weeks now. I was in this slump for a while, writing-wise. It's pretty much over now. I think a change in the season helped. People are out again, parties are going on late into the night, lots of shows. We opened for Arrah and the Ferns last night, on a tuesday. The crowd was a little thinner than I'd ( Read more... )

no joke, i do... but i've been real busy living life and being real introspective on a personal level. The band is going really well... and married life is turning out to be great, and even a little freeing, which is the opposite of what our society thinks, i guess.

so that's all...

believe it or not, i've tried to do this post a few times, but i keep failing. i find explaining myself less necessary lately. there's been lots to say, though ( Read more... )

OH SHIIIIIIT, I'M HAVIN' A RICE DREAM!

ROCK

STEADY

i feel like i've been busy living life... but i can't really say doing what. i've had a decent amount of time off from work, seen a lot of people that i miss, read a couple books, listening to lots of jazz, wrote some songs, gone on road trips and smoked probably too much weed. basically, my life is pretty sweet lately ( Read more... )

i woke up from the most amazing dream with a feeling i haven't felt in a long time... or maybe ever. i felt the way i felt when i was a kid, then again, i dunno if i really felt that way as a kid. i probably just went about my business... and i didn't listen to grizzly bear or do most of the other things i did in my dream... but i did ride my bike ( Read more... )

i've been a little "off" lately. i've been trying to get this song down. there's something missing. and i think it's starting to really bother me, or something. everyone at work keeps telling me i'm very "grumpy", i just am not very happy near the end of the night. it's true. but seriously, and i know i'm in customer service, i doubt anyone looks ( Read more... )
