Myself of Being An Absence Friend...

So lately, I've been getting random texts from AZ saying why I don't text back. Or they miss me and want to see how I am doing. I feel real bad that I can't keep up with them like I use to. I'm busy to the point where I want to give up on a lot of stuff. The job that I still have since '07 has changed a lot. Especially since I've transfer to a completely different location. The labor is out of control that I shouldn't been the only guy that should be doing them. I'm working full time house when I'm not even a full time employ. Still making the same wage that I have been since I've started and I know people that I do work with that work less and make the same amount of money as me. It pisses me off.

But what can I do? I apply at many different places in the area where I live and nothing. So, I'm in a catch 22. And it's been rough on my sleeping pattern. It feels like I'm losing my sleep by the hour and when I have to get up, I'm loaded on caffeine and sugar. And when I crash... I crash hard.

So, I like to say that I am sorry that I'm not in full alert on updates. I have a feeling that I'm hurting someone's feelings out there and I'm sorry. It's not that I don't want to talk to you, but my time is rare and spread out to the limits of myself, my girlfriend, projects at work, home, and or other friend/family here and/or there. Most of the time I am asleep and need to catch up on it as much as possible. Feel like I should apologize ahead of time.

And As I look back and think of all of my friends that came and gone. There is one friend that I wish could have stayed in my life. Great time together when we either go and drink right after school, watch tv when we have nothing to do, party, listen, exchange, and live the music, books, and poems, talk about life when it comes down to anything and anywhere, and enjoy each others company. But oh well, they are off and doing there thing. What ever it is. I hope you are doing great.

Reggie Watts! What a musical genius!

No fucking details to say about this guy or this video. Great!!!



There's another performance on Conan's show around Christmas time. You should check that out. It's amazing!

Anywho, today is my sister's birthday. My sister Veronica is turning 23 years olds. I like to wish her a happy birthday. From Mary and I. I love you sis! Hope you, Martin, and lil William is doing good. Having a good time today. :) xoxo

Long story short: My job is pissing me off. I really hate it. I'm thinking of leaving the musician part of my life. I can't really find anything out here to do so. Even if I did, I can't find it around my time or anyone else's. Which makes me really sad. I feel like crying(not really. It's an expression). Oh well... I still got myself and a guitar from time to time if I'm not tired. And I wish I could get more sleep. At lease more than six, but it seems like I'm losing more and more of it. What can I do? Help please.

"I got a letter in the mail today..."

So lately, I have been thinking of old bands I've been in. One band that sticks out was a short lived band out of Eloy, AZ. Edgar, Anthony, and I were just another ska and punk band, but something about this band meant a lot to me. It really felt like it was going somewhere. We recorded a few songs out of a million of them. Plus, we a sick ass Choking Victim song, as well as a local song by Elron. Well, not really a cover, but a trade of songs. We traded a song called "Fat Mom" for some song that was a cool short and fast song, and we changed it to a slow ska song at the beginning and then build up from there. Fun fun fun times.

Well, from what I heard from Edgar, They are doing a show at the Ave. Oh how I wish I can be there. Cultura, Elron, and some other bands. All for the day of Feb. 11th. Aka, 2/11. Everyone is going to get fucked up on 211. Which is still gross to me. Plus, it has fish oil in it, so I ca't have it. Oh well.

Once I start a band, I like to do some covers of Illegal Citizen songs. The combo kit: Fat Mom, Don't Call Me..., and Bloodshot Eyes.

Hopefully I can do these songs sooner than later with a band. Hopefully...

Negative Feedback! Tucson Hardcore! Fuck Yeah! When the drummer clicks in that song at 3:07.... it has to be the fastest intro drumming I have ever saw. I wish I can make a band like this. Singer Griffin is a chill guy. Hung out with him at a backyard in Tucson. But more about that story later.

Off to work. >_>
