12:22 am - not very fun
I had a long day. did a lot of work. But the Thompsons bought me food because my family's plans for dinner were disrupted. I was doing some data work and my dad had just gotten home and then my mom. it was pretty normal stuff, we were watching some college football game, uva and vt maybe. but then we got a call from urgent care. my brother had gone there with my mom to get something for a cough. his bloodwork came back, numbers were told. My mom restates them to my dad and I, we understand nothing about the relative meaning of these numbers. Basically urgent care said that scott should go to the emergency room right away. He was at work, so I called Urban, got brandon and then my mom and scott talked and agreed to meet at the hospital.
So I was left at home, unsure of what was happening. This was at 12:30. I got a call at 4 saying they were still there unsure what exactly was wrong. Then Nancy calls me at 5:40 telling me they were taking me to dinner. I eat and then go to the ER. I am told to wait in line with people checking in to get seen just to find out where scott is. so by 8 or so I get to go into the privileged area and see my brother. It is here that I find out his glucose levels were high and they were trying to bring them down. they think he has diabetes, thats about all the info I have. my mom thinks its most likely type 1, from how they are describing the problem. but I am just bummin for him. I know he's not happy right now and there aint much that can be done to help him. just think nice thoughts of him.

01:37 am - the end of the line man
i went to pick up charlie at lax because i am cool. it took an extra hour because all the onramps north were closed from like century up to slauson or something like that. anyway, we went through inglewood and a black guy was crossing a dark street towards my car, punch it yo...
and i got home all good, so im happy. I spent 4 hours detailing my car the other day, its perhaps cleaner than its ever been before i think. and im pretty much wasting time here at home, nothing really to do, most everyone is doing stuff and i am tired a lot of the time, so the combination yields boredom. and thats about it

11:55 pm - to be
what is the subject of the summer?
do we just take it day by day or live our lives to make it to deadlines?
this past summer has been just like school, full of deadlines and such that has left me worn out and in need of release. the gathering was just the cure for such a disease. good food, after a long trial of getting the stupid grill started, you know... and then just hanging out not worrying about the prospect of failing the next day. I am relieved to be done with school for a bit. I am happy to be jobless and unbound in any way to san diego, i am free to roam north, to do anything. It is the height of too muchery. As i look around my empty apartment, i am happy to be free, to think about what good times lie ahead and just be. I would like to get the band back on track so that we can play again. of course. but man, i am just fine right now in this moment, to be here. this is what matters, to live for now and just be.
blah blah blah, i am gay.
Current Mood: yeah

01:48 am - I'm building a house
addition to a few minutes ago.
we can take this opportunity to reevaluate everything that we have done thus far. to really look at what we have come up with and decide what we want to change, what can stay, and then grow from the experience. i know that the last thing we want to do is start over, that blows. but it could help bring us all back on the same page and then make our sound even better. I mean we never really sat down and said, "hey what kind of sound are we going for in these songs." things just came out and i think it turned out pretty good, but i think we are capable of much better. we have the background and talent to do much better things, it just never went that way with how things were organized before. so a rebirth is upon us. a chance to truly define our musical style, now anyone looking to do some drumming??
ok bye for now.
Current Mood: rebirth

01:31 am - this is your last chance, after this there is no turning back
SWEET DREAMS...
hahaha...
But seriously what is going on guys? Why does everything fall apart when it is just getting together, kinda retarded. Working so hard to make things work, in a place where there is no one to catch you when you fall. I feel abandoned and kin of taken for granted, I put in a lot of time, sacrificed studying and then it ends. I can say that I saw it coming, Scott can attest to that. But the timing just seems so bad it just can not be true. Nick, Scott and I gave up a lot to do this and we have to make it work, or nick will go away for the rest of the summer, putting further activities culminating in shows on hold. I look forward to writing with Scott, some experimental kinda things, whatever we can come up with with our limited skills, or I can say mine are limited. I have a lot to learn, and it doesnt seem to be coming all that easy...
The story ends here for now, and if you have been like, whats going on, I dont understand... our drummer and singer for A Park Tradition, are leaving to pursue other musical opportunities. If you make it out to the LA shows make sure you say goodbye to Jon and Mike.

01:55 am - the rock show
I saw Evergreen Terrace and Bane this past night. It was awesome. They rocked the place. Then talked to Andrew and Craig after the show and gave them lucky pennies, for good luck of course. Other than that, i did nothing until 6, and then I tutored some people in programming (c/c++). The show gets better and better every time. nice huh?
Current Mood: blown away

10:48 pm - JADE
We moved to a new place, very bare with wood floors. So, I decided to make it more homey, you know, just some decorations. And well, it took forever to do this collage on the door, and about 50 million magazines, good god. Anyways the finished result is this:
give it some time to download, Its a big pic but I think its worth it, and you should too as it took me forever as I have already stated. Other than that there aint nothing to talk about. Show on Friday, come see us at The Hot Monkey Love Cafe, it starts at like 7 or something. Then we play a few shows in the LA area, so come to those too. COME TO THEM ALL. check the myspace for details, www.myspace.com/aparktradition
Im out for now, talk later.
Current Mood: done dude
Current Music: evergreen terrace-i can see my house from here
