Who cares that this is James Mercer pre Shins. The only thing that matters is that it sounds like 1997 in the form of musical waves. Just close your eyes and remember entering high school in northwest Georgia. A cute but late blooming kid. Don't worry, you'll have your time in the sun, and the girls will soon be chasing you.

You know it's time to switch up your job when every little thing annoys the absolute shit out of you. How about this for a scenario... someone asks you if something should be a certain way, instead of just asking you to do it. Fucking man up and make a decision! "Should it be red?".... I dunno, do you want to see it red you fucking fuck tard?!

Sober Cinco de Mayo.. if you told me I would be sober for a Cinco de Mayo cinco years ago I would have slapped you in the face and called you a bold face liar --and then apologized. I'm not some asshole sober crusader telling you how to live your life, just some dude who's grown to really enjoy living life unfiltered.
It's funny how a few short years can turn you into the exact anti-thesis of your previous self. This notion becomes even more pronounced in my life as I write this new version of left as rain. I go through old posts and almost cringe reading some of the shit I used to write but hold off from hitting the delete post button. It's good having those reminders around about where we used to be so we can see how far we've come. I guess that's why I still have my high school year book, which constantly reminds me its not okay to wear candy jewelry with your bleached spikey hair coming out of a Thundercats visor... ever.

Sometimes I wonder if I'm a puker... Like one of those people who puke under super tense situations. I honestly devote time to wondering about this, I rarely ever throw up. I certainly don't throw up when I'm stressed .. but then again no one has ever held a gun to my face. That's the fucked up part, you never know if you're a puker until it's way too late. It's gotta suck to have a gun pointed at you but it sucks way more to learn you're a puker.

On multiple occasions whilst talking about local dining experiences I've had people recommend restaurants and follow that recommendation with a phrase which just sucker punches my soul -- "YOU GOTTA TRY THE MEAT LOAF!" It's at that point I question said person's life decisions, we're they raised on cardboard and cheerios? Have they ever eaten food before? Your oblong cube of meat never tastes good... ever.
