7:46 pm	hey friends. i just wanted to say i've gotten a collection of poetry published by Rogue Literary Society. it's called Problems and Miracles. i've been nursing it like a tiny, little, injured fox for the past year, so it's kind of my baby. if you like that sort of stuff, please look into getting a copy. each one is hand-bound, signed, and numbered. they are really beautiful. i didn't make them so i can say that un-self-servingly. i'll put the link below. it'll be on amazon and in some stores and stuff soon as well. if you're interested and just want to buy one directly through me, you can to that too. just let me know. hope your lives are going real well. don't get sun burned or eaten alive. www.rogueliterarysociety.com

11:02 pm	hey guys. since the only time i make public entries is to shamelessly promote myself, i'm going to shamelessly do so. my band, Once More has a new record out. it's called People Ruins Things. it's currently on a listening station at the wonderful Ear-X-Tacy records if you live in the Louisville area and want to check it out. otherwise, you can get one from me if you wish to do so. also, the wonderful Korey Vincent has aided me in putting together an online portfolio of some of my artwork, so take a look at that too if you get a chance. it's www.dinosaursinventedsex.com. tell your homies and let me know what you think. otherwise, i hope your summers are going truly splendidly. i'll see ya next time i'm in the mood for self-prostitution because my real life is none of your sticky beeswax. yours, -r

11:25 am	officially the baddest dunker. so just to update you people who care, it turns out that we actually are going to have enough songs for the album we want to release, and they are well on their way to completion. we still have a lot of work to do, but all the drums are done, all the bass except for one song, some rough guitar, and we're starting in on vocals this afternoon. christopher is going to do most of the final guitar work and mixing at school, so we probably won't have a final product until sometime toward the end of winter or early spring, but we'll see. we're pretty excited about the way it's sounding. also, i just finished putting my art show up at Day's Coffee shop on bardstown road. it's 2 blocks (i think) north of eastern parkway (i.e. QDoba, if you don't know what eastern parkway is.) it's probably about half drawings and half photographs, so head out there and give it a look if you get a chance sometime before the end of january. i'd appreciate it. other than that, i hope everybody is having a good winter break. mine has been wonderful and shall be for another couple weeks or so hopefully. holla.

1:01 am	some nights just fall into place the pep rally pretty much just sucked. pizza was cool and all, but when everyone was just standing around afterward, hopping from one little talking circle to the next, discussing plans about this and that, i actually was getting pissed. i'll be all emo and upset over haley and whatnot any day of the year, but it's pretty damn hard to ever get me angry. oh well. it's all good because haley and i are hanging out with just the two of us tonight, right? not really. once we finally did get away from the masses, i was still mad, making it even harder to start conversation and, as always, she wasn't helping. so we rent the Never-ending Story (fuck ya) and go back to her house where her mom made her dad rub my arm to experience my real cashmere sweater. this was the highlight of the night so far. we go down to watch movie and jack is watching it with us, so no talking, hand holding, sitting next to each other, etc.. at least the movie was awesome. anyway, skip some bullshit here and there and before ya know it, about 1/4 of our grade shows up at robbie's to see us play basement show 3.5. needless to say i sucked. needless to say the night kicked ass. christopher, i love you man. i am only kidding when i make fun of you (talentless fuck). you always make me smile. sorry for messing up your songs. cutter, thanks a lot for not showing up. tuesday. we take over your cafeteria and steal your lunch money, bitch.

10:25 pm	ryan davis is nice. the man that cutter and i met downtown today was beautiful. he told us that no matter what we did in life, not to go to college, but join the service, and most importantly, never to fall in love. i'll have to remember that next time i am trying to decide whether i should or should not. but "there's something about rainy nights..." jeffersonville is the best fucking city on earth.

6:07 pm	[insert catchy emo song lyric about fall/september/october here] autumn is amazing. i love being able to walk outside, knowing it will be cool enough for a hoodie or jacket, but not needing one. the oranges and yellows should be on their way shortly. homecoming is already this weekend. senior year is speedng by too fast or me. i know it isn't even october, but before ya know, it will be winter, then spring and summer and college and adulthood and marriage, kids like Herman Blume's, divorce, and death shortly there after. oh boy. for now i will enjoy september.

7:49 pm	the family is gone for the evening and i am having the time of my life downloading Biggie and Fabulous, strolling around my family room, pretending to be driving a car like in the rap videos, yelling phrases like "money, hoes and clothes, all a nigga knows, bitch!", and laughing out loud at myself. damn you, browder. for at least the next hour or so, life kicks ass.

6:16 pm	dance party at haley's! awesome. do social events with music ever get old? not that i know of. close friends, goofy vintage outfits, a broad range of jams, happy faces, little dogs, huge dogs, tight pants, a beautiful girlfriend, slow dances, thug dances, moshing, stories, and photographs as usual. these days are dandy...

6:02 pm	DavisStock it all started after school on friday when robbie, cutter and i decided to skip soccer so we could "set up for the show." this consisted of throwing a few records and framed photographs out of the way, sitting around talking about how much our bands sucks,laughing, watching homemade movies, having the power go out on us, driving to River Falls mall, and coming back home to pray to God for electricity until people started showing up. they showed. the power did not. there are roughly 40 people in my house who had come to see a rock show and we were using candles just to find our way around the place. there is some ryan davis luck for ya. luckily, no one is getting too upset. kids are enjoying themselves just standing around socializing, but how long can this last? after a failed wrestling tournament and naked yard-run being vetoed by my mom, we decided to run up to Meijer and purchase a slip-n-slide to save the day. as long as there are still cookies, the people in my house will be fine. so we leave, and not a minute passes before we see the company fixing the lines. i roll down the window and say "god bless you, kind sirs!" and hey assure me that it will be back up in a matter of seconds. so we go crazy. we should have just turned around there, now that i think about it. but we proceeded to get our hands on a slip-n-slide. of course Meijer doesn't have any. instead we buy a 21x25 ft. tarp. they won't accept cutter's checks without I.D., so robbie dishes out 10 bucks (more than he has most likely spent since the beginning of summer) and we leave. ride home kicked ass. screaming the lyrics to 'sleepy smile' with 4 friends in the pouring down rain, knowing everything would work out somehow. and it did. we pull onto my street to see a lighted house full of relieved people. (whew.) sean and wes' band set up first. they kicked ass, especially their Enrique cover. everyone was into them, really. i'm happy for those guys. next was the A/V club and A Suburban Blood Drive. not much to say about these guys except for they were good as usual. those supergroup guys really deserve what they get. they are fucking good and they work hard for it. unlike E-nice, they have their priorities straight. after the Brown Recluses nearly tore down my walls with unholy guitar riffs and A.C's terradactyl-like scream, it was our turn. Saving Latin. i had been complaining to my band mates the past few days about how i really did not want to sing at the show. well, that changed as soon as i picked up the mic. i remembered how much i love having that power. Marty started off with his stand-up act while we set up. haha. "this one might be a little racey..." lee wells dedicated our set to kari anderson's boobs. i dedicated it to leighton maine. it was time to rock. the crowd was pretty good. not as many people watching us as there were for TFF, but it was still cool. nothing really went horribly wrong with our set other than cutter's bass just failing to function for no reason in the middle of our Nelly cover. that, and i forgot to have my cell phone ready for the "can you make it?" part. on Tardy Cuts, i didn't even hit the notes, just put my fingers on the right frets and danced around, hitting all the strings. overall, typical first show. we made mistakes, but people enjoyed it and right now, thats all i really care about. next, e-nice showed up. i could go on about this, but i won't. to make a long story short, they were being pricks and devin unplugged them. Once More Than Never. christopher's set was fucking awesome. it was neat seeing a friend you see in an everyday environment, touching people in such a unique way. smiles, tears, screams, sing-alongs, hugs, licks on the face. it was a success for sure. the new album kicks ass. i like it more and more every time i hear it. this is the longest entry i have ever seen. so in the end, i learned not to associate myself with signs tat say "JESUS SUCKS". God does not hesitate to take your electricity. thank you to everyone who listened, played, booked, or helped this happen in any way. keep on rockin' in the free world...

10:06 pm	i wrote a hit play, so i'm not sweating it either... tomorrow is the big day. Beautiful Cadence/Saving Latin/Once More Than Never debut show, all in the comfort of my own home. i'm worried too many will show up, but that's kinda out of my control at this point. i can't imagine it not being fun. i'm actually more excited about seeing christopher than us playing at this point. i was messing around on bass tonight though and i just loved it. i really want to push this band to be good if at all possible. and i think it is. for now, let the light hit the ice and glare. i can see ya boo from way over here and i'm out.
