the world is flat.

My wife and I went to see Marley & Me tonight. I cried a little. On our way out to our car, we some some dudes dealing drugs right in the parking lot of AMC. Fucking idiots!

My grandfather was quite sick a few days ago. Honestly, the doctors didn't think he'd "make it". He is doing better now, thankfully. My wife and I went to see him yesterday, and he was joking around, making fun of my grandma and I, and being a senile old man.

Aside from that, I'm just going to school, working, and hanging out. Nothing exciting.

I need to be in a band again. Either that, or I'm going to seriously sit down, and start working on writing, because I feel fucking worthless when I'm not "creating". Does that make sense?

godspeed.

Coffee Is My Anti-Drug!

Once again, I'm supposed to be working on homework, but I keep getting distracted. I worked on homework for about 8 hours today, went to work to schedule some time off, then drove to class. Upon getting to class I found out that it was canceled. Now, I wouldn't have been too pissed off about it, but... the e-mail my professor sent regarding class being canceled didn't get to me until 2 hours after she'd sent it. GOD BLESS TECHNOLOGY!

My father-in-law bought a car down in Florida, so I'm flying to Florida in February to drive his old car back to The Mitten. I'm pumped for the drive (I love long drives), I'm pumped to get out of the cold for a bit, and I'm pumped I get to stop off in Nashville (It's #2 on my list of cities I'd like to live in), but I am not pumped about flying. I'm afraid of flying (I've done it twice in my life. Once to DC, and once on my way back from DC), so I figure this will be a good way to get over my fear since I'm flying by myself.

In other news, I returned a Christmas present today, and got a bad ass coffee pot!


Not only can you program it, so that the coffee is ready when you wake up, it grinds the beans right before brewing, and it filters the water too! Yep, I love coffee, want proof?














Godspeed.

don't underestimate the spine in a poor man's back.


I love my dogs!

Well, now that the stress from the holidays is gone, the stress from school begins. I'm taking 16 credit hours, and though I did pretty well last semester, I want to do better this semester. I know I'm going to have a heavier work-load for my courses, so I won't be working as many hours a week at the bookstore as I did last semester.

Last nite my wife and I saw City and Colour, William Elliott Whitmore, and a few others in Detroit. The show was awesome! It was weird sitting down for a show (I felt really old), but it was great none-the-less.

I'm supposed to be working on homework right now, but my mind is wandering (thanks to the snow collected on the pine tree outside of my window). My belly is full of hell, and I'm having a hard time getting comfortable in my computer chair. I want a cigarette, but I think I should atleast finish a chapter of homework before I "reward" myself with one.

Oh yeah, my old band, Silence The Wake, had a reunion show on December 27th, and it was awesome! I had a lot of fun, and a lot of money was raised for a great cause.

Godspeed.
