Fevers & Mirrors

     I'm finally updating this thing.  I'm so bored and alone that I feel like someone out there will read this and talk to me or something.  But anyway, today wasn't that great of a day.  Woke up went to the skatepark, it was Ok, except everyone got hurt today; some random kid broke his arm, I'm not gonna go into gruesome detail, but it was bad, then my friend, David, split his knee cap somehow or something like that, I haven't heard from him since he left to go to the hospital, but it was bad.  Then just everyone else was gettin' hurt.  Later after everyone was really too tired to skate anymore, we sat down to chill out and I heard over the phone and found out some really bad news, but I'm not posting it up here because I've been told not to.  It was one of those times when you can kinda step back and look in on things and it just hits you... wow, shit can really go down.

Straylight Run

Finally, I'm actually bored enough to make another entry on this, but I don't really have anything to say.  So... here's another wonderful song to read and shit.  It's long but it's worth it to take the time to read.

Well the animals laugh
From the dark of the wilderness
A baby cries hard
In an apartment complex

As I pass in a car
Buried under the influence
The cities driving me out
of my mind

I've seen a child he's caught
In the sad trap of gravity
He falls from the lowest
Branch of the apple tree

And lands in the grass
And weeps for his dignity
Next time he will not aim so high
Yeah, next time neither will I

Now, a mother takes loans out
Sends her kids off to colleges
Her family's reduced
To names on a shopping list

While a coroner kneels
Beneath the great wooden crucifix
He knows there’s worse things than being
Alone.

And so I’ve learned to retreat
At the first sign of danger
I mean, why wait around if
It’s just to surrender

And ambition I’ve found
Can lead only to failure
I do not read the reviews
No I am not singing for you

Well I stood droppin' a coin
Into the pit of a well
And I would throw my whole billfold
If I thought it would help

With all these wishes I make
I should buy something real
At least a telephone
Call home

Well my teachers they built
This retaining wall of memory
All those multiple choices
I answered so quickly

And got my grades back
And forgot just as easily
But at least I got an A
And so I don’t have them to blame

Well I should stop pointing fingers
Reserve my judgment
Of all those public action figures
And cowboy presidents
So loud behind the bull-horns
So proud they can’t admit
When they’ve made a mistake

While poison ink spews
From a speech writers pen
He knows he don’t have to say it
So it don't bother him

Honestly, accuracy,
It’s just popular opinion
And the approval rating's high
And so someone’s gonna die

Well ABC NBC CBS bullshit
They give us fact or fiction
I guess it's an even split
And each new act of war's tonight's entertainment
We're still the pawns in their game

As they take eye for an eye
Until no one can see
We must stumble blindly forward
Repeating history

Well I guess we all fit into that slogan
On your fast food marquee
Red blooded white skinned and oh the blues
Oh and the blues I got the blues that’s me

Well I awoke in relief
My sheets and tubes were all tangled
Weak from whiskey and pills
In a Chicago hospital

And my father was there
In a chair by the window
Starin’ so far away
I tried talking just whispered
So sorry so selfish
He stopped me and said
Child, I love you regardless
There's nothing you could do
That would ever change this
I’m not angry, it happens
But you just can’t do it again

And so now I try to keep up
I been exchanging my currency
While a million objects
Pass though my periphery
Now I’m rubbin' my eyes
'Cause they're starting to bother me
I been staring too long at the screen

But where was it when I first heard
That sweet sound of humility
It came to my ears in the
Goddamned loveliest melody

How grateful I was then
To be part of the mystery
To love and to be loved
Lets just hope that is enough

Transatlanticism
By Death Cab for Cutie
see related

The time has come for colds and overcoats

We're quiet on the ride

We're all just waiting to get home

Another week away

my greatest fear

I need the smell of summer

I need its noises in my ears

If looks could really kill

Then my profession would be staring

know we do this

Cause we care, not for the thrill

Collect calls to home

To tell them that I realize

That everyone who lives

Will someday die and die alone

And we wont let you in

Though we're down and out

no, we won't let you in

I wrote more postcards than hooks

I read more maps then books

Feel like every chance to leave is another chance I should have took

Every minute is a mile

I've never felt so hollow

I'm an old abandoned church with broken pews and empty aisles

A secrets for a buck

Watch me as I cut myself wide open on this stage

As I am paid to spill my guts

Wont see home this spring

Oh I would kill for the Atlantic

But I am paid to make girls panic

While I sing

And we wont let you in

Though we're down and out

No we won't let you in

And we won't let you in

We don’t want what isn’t ours

We won't let you in

And the coast line is quiet

While we're quietly losing control

And we're silent to show we invented the cure

That will wash out my memory

The harpoon's loaded

Cage is lowerd

The water is red like you…

Like you…

And we won't let you in

Though we're down and out

No we won't let you in

And we won't let you in

We don’t want what isn’t ours

Won't let you in...

I don't know why I'm even updating in this thing, no one comments me anyway.  I don't even really know what to say in this, but I have had kindof a boring life since the last update.  I've skated some, hung out with people some, got bitched at a bunch.  the usual.  Ok, enough of that, listen to this song, the one above this entry.  it's amazing.

bye.

     Today has been the most eventfully good day so far for a long time back... I went to the skatepark today and skated good and broke in my new shoes and shit, workin' on new stuff.  I decided I wanna get some footage to put up on my computer so I ask Shane to film me doing some stuff, then we get done and he puts me on his skate team.  On top of that we got some pretty good footage.  Then we went street skating and one by one everyone gets picked up but me and some other kids I don't even know their names and then by then we had picked up Ben as he was drivin' along and he skates with us, and after everyone left he gave me a ride home.  Now I'm in Matt Prestons band too, Matt decided to change his mind and let me in.  Don't know why but he did and now I have to go through another initiation... thank God it's not as bad as the last one, I only have to get hit in the back with a meat cleaver.
