It’s just another day in paradise
As you stumble to your bed
You’d give anything to silence
Those voices ringing in your head
You thought you could find happiness
Just over that green hill
You thought you would be satisfied
But you never will-

So, I wont lie- there was a little bit of a let down when everything was revealed… but not really. Im actually really happy with where I am, and where we are. If what she said was true, then this is the beginning of something good down the road.
Something’s gotta go wrong cuz i was feeling way too damn good…
Today/tonight may be the beginning of the end of the streak of amazing days Ive been having lately… Hopefully not, but I cant help but think that it might be.
And I couldnt be happier with the way this new crop (young) crop of members has turned out. They’ve really made some amazing strides in less than 48 hours. When we started, I was discouraged by everything they were doing, but low and behold by the end of practice today- they were ready. Needless to say, I wasnt the only one that was surprised, and happily so.
Ive been around this band since its inception from its first practice and performance as a member till its last performance in the summer of 2004, which includes the 2004 Tournament of Roses Parade.
Along with the bands virtual disbandment (no pun intended) after that summer and the aging out of all original members and Tournament of Roses participants… this band is completely brand new. And thats exciting!
Im proud to still be associated with what Ive been a part of since day one, not as a marcher anymore but as a Technical Assistant, and this has been a great experience.
Tomorrow is their performance in the Weiser Fiddle Festival and you can bet I’ll be there bright and early and (hopefully) marching along side them and finishing what Ive helped start again.
These past few days have been hecktic, but that doesn’t mean other parts of my life havent been doing well. Read more…
His Niece is a knockout as well!
Thank You Facebook!
So it seems like myself and my closest friends are all going through similar situations… except for this third (and newest) case I know both people involved.
All the little petty things build up… first for one person, they get offended, and then the other person gets offended and all the small things build up on the other side and thus we’re at an impass. No one needs to admit they were wrong- because one was wrong… and then people dont want to talk, and wont talk, and avoid… until even the greatest of relationships and lovers hate eachother.
Ive been talking with NC tonight trying to get her to talk to Tony again and let him make up for the stupid things he said… and she doesn’t want to hear it anymore…. and I dont blame her, but I just wish there was a way I could make her see to give him one chance to show her that he’s not really that person she thinks he is now… Like I know CK wants to show his girl, and what I wanted to show chas before we got to the point we are at now.
Im not saying that pride should be pushed aside, but if NC, and other girls, would just understand that guys- as much as I hate to admit it- aren’t perfect, in fact most times we have to fuck something up to the point of losing it to realize how much we’ve lost, and give us guys (the ones you really care about) a chance to show you we’re better than we’ve appeared to be lately.
In writing this Im not trying to make up for things Ive done (or haven’t done) but simply state that just maybe Ive started to realize how important even the littlest things are… stupid comments, over done actions, and taking things for granted, and that maybe they’re just a little bit more important than I would have given them credit for.
