"there's something about just laying down and taking all that pain. i'd rather drive all night, if it's all the same. half a tank of gas will get me far enough to be completely lost by the time the sun comes up."
i am locked in a perpetual struggle to learn to live the life that i have rather than only fighting to live the life that i want. if anyone has some solid advice on how to accomplish this, please be forthcoming with it.
(and so i'm not in trouble for plagiarism, the title of this blog is a quote from Justin Furstenfeld. the lyrics in quotations are from Lucero's song "it gets the worst at night")
my watch batteries died almost 2 years ago. i still wear it. i reset the hands to display 12:03. i am fake.
I am the queen of fucking things up.
can someone point me towards the path to recovery?
Summer has unofficially begun! Share your favorite beach tune.
I don't really call 67 degrees "summer" and I am not a beach person. However, this is the song that always comes to mind.
the clouds in the summer sky
don't do shit for the heat
the girls in their summer clothes
only slight relief
and there's nothing to do but wait it outthe boys in their summer bands
sweat as they give it their all
the bands might be good
but probably won't last through the fall
and there's nothing to do now
except to sing, sweat and shout
and there's nothing to do but wait it outthe clouds in the summer sky
don't do shit for the heat
but the girls and the shores
and the summer nights are still nice to see
and there's nothing to do now
except to sing, sweat and shout
and there's nothing to do but
wait it out
come over. i really fucking miss you.
i've said it before, but i can't make myself say it again.
when i said i'd see you around eventually. i told you why. and i told you so.
seeing the train before it hits you doesn't make the impact any less brutal.
how often do you wonder
about life on the other side?
on the other side of sorrow
on the other side of rage
on the other side of ok
ok at all
in any way
imagine what loneliness
will drive someone to do
now multiply that times me
and multiply that times you
now imagine what it would take to make this all happen again
and just when you think you're gonna cry
multiply that times ten
you
are distracting me
from all other activities
and i know the fact of your presence
will dominate my memory
of this restaurant, this table
this day and this town
cuz i carry you baby
i carry you around
I've been hanging out with the boys for a few days, and it's been a lot of fun. Today, they have to go back to school, so I woke up at 5, made them some breakfast, and got everything laid out for the day. I just woke them up a little bit ago and now they're giggling at each other because they both have ketchup on their faces. :D Just a note here, but they're eating turkey smoked sausage and scrambled eggs. They require ketchup for both. Silly kids.
They have to be at school by 730, and I have to drive them 45 minutes to school. After I'm done with that, I'm going to spend the day with my friend Chris, moving all my shit outta storage and into a UHaul or something. Haven't decided yet if I'm going to go ahead and transport this junk to Chicago or what.
Now I'm running outta time. Gotta go. <3
