i have never had a better time. i have never written weirder shit. never played guitar as well, never been as funny and sad at the same time
never written stuff like come pick me up, with bite and a grin, so to speak, never had such a large canvas as waking up and feeling good enough to write the way that i am now.
it feels free.
it feels like the freedom i was trying to attain from poisoning myself into oblivion.
its fucking awesome
i missed my guitar when i was a drunk addict.
it missed me.
we spend lots of time together and its just joy.
and i can go straight from where ever that is and go see a movie or build something weird out of found wooden and metallic objects
i also "dream" songs. i hadn't dreamt in years. i dream now.
i (and it is weird) had an idea i could "reach" the other day and i woke up from a deep sleep and the part was in my mind. i just sort of let it stay in my head as i walked to the place where we play explained it to the band by humming it, and poof- there it was.
the new sounds like a mash up of american beauty and the soundtrack fof "Grease" and "Halloween 3 season of the witch"
it is very nice to have an open and honest relationship to the writing.
i played victim and victimized my subject matter when i was in that blackhole and it wasn't working for me.
but i am weird anyway.
i think, from another post up there though, that i may not be doing that if my carrer as a left side feild fella person works out because there are very tall british men running at me with some device of leather inside the large feild with lights and lucozade posters.
they are running ver fast.
gotta go




btw, the last bit refers to an earlier post asking Ryan to play soccer .

Interesting stuff Sydders. He definitely seems a lot happier & more together since he's been on the wagon.
Bit worried about the poof & Grease references though. Do you think he's been hanging out with John Travolta?

John has been Ryan's rock throughout this difficult time. A little Grease is bound to rub off.

:lol Is that still alive? That thread is concluisive proof that some people really do have no sense of irony. Sets new standards in whiny and hysterical internet posting daily.
