Ok I'm officially afraid of jazz band. I already knew it in my mind but I heard it today that Frank is a better bassist than I could ever be. He also scared the shit out of me talking about walking bass lines and reading the music and whatnot. Then Tristan goes 'all you have to do is play a bunch of notes fast for a walking bass line' but I still ( Read more... )

Ryan's dad had an anyurism (sp?) a week ago. He died a few days ago. I went to the funeral even though I haven't seen Ryan since Dustin's party in ninth grade. I haven't seen Nick since then, I haven't seen Dustin since then. In fact the only person I have seen since then is Melinda who was also at the funeral. Ryan was, of course, surprised to see ( Read more... )

Ah it has been many days since my last entry. I have been working hard to write songs. I will have some alone time this week, as in home alone time, so I can 'rock out' as it were. Band practice was fun though I'm not sure if Marchel and Suzie enjoyed it as much as me. The hot licks, courtesy of Marchel, were nothing short of awesome and I think ( Read more... )

I have been searching searching for that Jeff Bucley "I Shall Be Released" singing over the phone thing. To no avail. I feel like I need that in my life. I feel like I should ravage Suzie's room to see if it has fallen into some dark crevice. Because there are many a crevice in her room. It makes me so sad that he died so soon. To read about how ( Read more... )

Last night was the worst. The cash register really fucked up and I couldn't get it open so the manager had to come back and fix it. Then at the end of the day the thing said we were short 40 dollars. I almost cried. I left the lady a note and I only hope that she doesn't fire me and that the money is really there and this is all a big mistake. I ( Read more... )

I bought some plants today and they are really cool. It was sort of a hunt to find them. Well to find them in the right size. So I have four plants now and though I want some more the space in my room is limited so perhaps I shall hold off. I was attacking the music video area of different websites and discovered that Todd was the frightened young ( Read more... )

Well good news. I don't have to work on Friday so Marchel and Suzie can come over and we can practice. Bad news I don't know where the hell either of them are. Marchel has disappeared and Suzie is at some school. I don't know where or why but I have to be at work at six and it's 4:30. I will be really sad if I can't get in touch with them.

There is good news and then there is bad news. The good news first because otherwise the bad news won't make sense. I got a job. At Subway. I hope this does not become like Suzie's encounter with the Waffle House. But of course with this lucrative (and yet probably not so lucrative) advancement something unfortunate must happen. I am not positive ( Read more... )

My love for the Faint seems to grow day by day. I am bursting at the seams. Because of my growing love I have decided to dedicate a whole entry about why I think the Faint are so fabulous ( Read more... )

So over the past couple of days I have listened to the Faint, listened to the Faint, figured out which one of them is which, listened to the Faint, listened to the Faint, watched a tennis match, listened to the Faint, listened to the Faint, applied for some jobs, listened to the Faint, listened to the Faint, let my mom make me feel panicky about my ( Read more... )
