Wednesday, June 15, 2022, 6:51:54 PM- Bad dreams

So I’ve had the same version of a bad dream twice now and in both a person I only know thru NN is in the dream. In the dream my band is playing a show overseas which is actually happening later this year. After we finish our set, one of the sound guys hands me a note and says that some girl asked him to give this to me after we play. The note is addressed to ksaint, a name I only use here. It says “I recognized you by your tattoos.” Then goes on to say that she “had hoped that I’d be better looking”. Plus “your music was dreadful, so I left” . It was signed in her NN name.

Monday, May 23, 2022, 5:46:06 PM- Appreciating Honesty

So I occasionally worry about leaving comments on peoples pics or profiles a little too often. Same for status updates. Mostly involving people who have made me feel comfortable in some way. Perhaps in a way they don’t even realize. Usually it is by being funny, kind, intelligent, or a combination of all three. All are attributes I find my self drawn to.

Which is why I always worry about making others uncomfortable in any way. So please don’t hesitate to just nicely tell me to stop.I won’t take offense. I know full well that I am not everyone’s cup of tea .

Wednesday, April 27, 2022, 1:10:17 AM- Not my best days

Today would have been my friends’ Birthday. I’m trying my best to remain upbeat and positive but seem to be losing that battle. Negativity hasn’t ever suited me well yet it keeps rearing it’s ugly head. I can’t help but think I’ve let him and myself down. That I’m not holding up my end of our unsaid bargain. Not living without looking back.
Maybe i’m just feeling sorry for myself. Maybe I’m just thinking too much. Either way I can’t seem to shake this today.

Friday, April 15, 2022, 10:09:37 PM- Good Advice

Some of the best and easiest to follow advice my father ever gave me: Don’t Be A Dick.
Follow it and you will always feel better about yourself. Trust me.
He was wrong about a lot of stuff. However, this wise nugget has never failed me.

Tuesday, April 5, 2022, 8:04:48 PM- Actions Having Consequences

Something amazing happened today. I was out grabbing lunch when a girl I recognize but don’t really know came up to me. She offered to buy my lunch. Of course I thanked her and told her it wasn’t necessary, I had already paid.
She asked me if I had a second to talk. Then went on to tell me that something I had done for her early on during lockdown had made such a big impact on her. That it made the difference between her and her daughter having a good meal or not. Then she told me that now that she has her job back, she often pays it forward. As much as she can.
She hugged me and went about her day. I’m not gonna lie. When I got to my car I cried a bit. Not wanting her to see.
Every one of our actions have impact.
I’m so glad she felt comfortable enough to tell me.

“Find a way to be happy and surround yourself with people who will support what you do . People who make you smile.”
I found this in some of my old song idea books.
It is pretty much what I have done. How I have structured my life..
I have to remember to trust myself more and follow my own advice.

Monday, March 21, 2022, 7:29:34 PM- Appreciation

Wondering how many of the people on here realize how much their words and thoughts made a sad boy smile during a rough patch. It is a good reminder to myself to always remember that you never know what someone may be dealing with. That your small actions or kind words can make a difference. A reminder that I can always do better.
If you ever catch me being unkind…please call me out on it.

"From your words in the blog I recently responded to, I think your 'be kind to others' ethic is intact. But it's an indictment on so many that even in the absence of any real knowledge of another's circumstances, people still feel entitled to voice an opinion - to judge."- urwayhot

Tuesday, March 15, 2022, 3:10:47 AM- Tomorrow

It will be three weeks tomorrow. In some ways it feels like three minutes. In another like three years. You are still dominating my thoughts. Writing them down is my attempt to purge them. Surfing helps a little ,with the exception of the times I still catch myself looking over to see if your car is in the lot. Light of day was this weekend. The sets were killer. I miss reliving them with you. Hearing your critique. Telling me if I sucked.
Tomorrow is just another day.

Thursday, March 10, 2022, 2:59:33 AM- Being Proud For A Change

I’m feeling a bit proud of myself today. This day felt like my first actual productive day in the past two weeks. I finished lyrics that have been eating at me for quite a while now. To most that might not seem like a big deal but I’ve had a rough few weeks. So I’m going to actually cut myself a break and say”yeah me”. It feels nice for a change to not be my own biggest critic.
If anyone can take anything from this, I’d say to remember you are only human.Take pride in small victories.
