Wilsen - Garden

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.
Misun - After Me

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.
Alpine - Foolish

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.
Hot Chip - White Wine and Fried Chicken

This track is impossibly chill. Anytime someone is singing to me about fried chicken I will listen and most likely agree. We should make a new Mission Impossible movie called Mission Impossible: Impossibly Chill which would just be Tom Cruise wearing Top Gun aviators sitting on a beach drinking pina coladas with a friendly stray dog watching a sunset.
