just finished my last exam for the semester. I am so relieved I don't have to look at another text book for the next 3 months. It's funny, we start after high school and end before it. That really pushes Whitney's buttons. She will still be asking me if I went to school today though til this time next spring I guarantee. I still don't really know what I will major in yet. It is so hard to plan your life when your 18. There are so many different majors out there that it is hard to focus on just one and set your targets on it. Oh well wish me luck "pals".

No matter how set in stone some things may seem, those things will change when you least expect and for the best or worst. I have done some bad things in my life, but none of them will I not stand and admit to. I think some people would turn gay if it was cool and popular at the time, no offense to anyone who is, I was just proving a point. Some people can't take others being nice to them as well as they can being mean or bitchy, they might even like it that way. I have wanted nothing more than everyone I know to be freinds with me and try and be nice to anyone, I am a nice guy. Some people don't like my freinds, my parents included. Freinds in my oppinion, should let the other know if they are wrong, no matter how bad it hurts them or vice versa. I really appreciate my group of freinds, those of you who have stuck with me. You guys are my pals, and really help me get through the day sometimes. I might be a dick sometimes, as would you if the mood is just right. Some of you I think of as brothers. Most of you that is. You don't have to be related to be blood on my oppinion. I wish I could keep everyone happy, but thats not my job. Some things I do may piss you off, but FRIENDS will get through it. I have no doubts who my friends are, as with my brothers, but the thing is, if you betray some, sympathy is hard to come by when you find out the person you deamed scapegoat was really a friend all along. YOu can talk about someone behind their back (Lord knows I have done that), you can kick them off your friends list on Myspace, ( not real freinds to begin with), you can even cause them to weap because they put trust in you. Aaa now there is a word. Trust. That is a broad word. It is hard to find someone you can trust these days. The thing is I trust every single one of my friends, that is what they are your friend in my oppinion.
Sorry guys, I typed all that. if you have made it to the end, the finish line is right over the hill. I think I misspelled the word friend about 200 times. Thanks to all of you that are a friend it means alot to other person. You guys are all great!! F.A.T.H. bitches!!

I have been working like a.... prostitute lately, but its cool though. Cracker Barrel is insane and everyone there is going to hell. no not really, it's a really good job. I am enjoying cooking so far but we aren't open yet so don't go try to eat there!!
I haven't been to any of my classes as much as I should. I think I am doing really bad. I am going to start fresh next semester so I can do alot better.

I had a fun time at fathom saturday night. Dustin made the voyage with me along with a huge crew in two other cars. Whitney showed up and I also had a great time with her as well. The Showdown kicked major ass, they are all I have been listening to over the weekend along with Since the Flood. The bands were also pretty good and entertaining. I didn't get my dance on though, I just didn't feel right moving my fat ass at warped speeds that night for some reason. WFOF rocked out, I loved the whole "I'll play your guitar while you play mine" thing that Weatherford and Dustin Layne did, it rocked my socks off.
I bought a Showdown shirt and a new WFOF demo CD. The new stuff sounds really good, typical for those guys. I would love to play another show with them sometime. SOON
I got a new job. I seem to post this alot here lately but hopefully not for a while after this one. It is the one and only Cracker Barrel. I will be in the back the whole time cooking away. It should be a really good jod though, as I will be paid $8.00 an hour. So I have pretty much sold my soul to them for the next two weeks of training.
I went and watched Wrestlemania 21 last night, it kicked so much ass!
That is what I have been doing, what about you?

I have been so busy lately. I almost forgot about this. No I will not result in the typing the phrase about cobwebs but lets just say that I haven't updated in a while. Here is a walk in my life.
I just officially dropped my first class of my college career. It is A&P I. This is the hardest class I Have ever taken in my academic life. I felt kinda bad when I walked into that room and dropped it. It felt like I was a failure and that I give up to easily, but that isn't the case at all. The class wasn't going in my favor anyway. I knew that for a fact, not to mention it is all the way in Chattanooga and I have to drive up there twice a week. While we are talking about driving let's face the facts. Gas isn't the cheapest thing in the world anymore either. I figured this, I was not doing well anyway, I have to drive and waste gas for a whole 1/2 semester and I know it is costing me to drive to a class that I can't bring up to a B anyway. so if I take it again, than I will do it nest semester and start fresh. Study even harder than I did this time, and I really studied alot, and do my best. That is all that I can do. If not, I will have to change my major.
I have been thinking about that for a while as well. I just don't know what I want to do with my life at this point.Guys, help me out. post about what I should do, I have no idea what I should go to school for at this point. At first, I wanted to go for music recording. That is all I could think about for years. Then I thought about staying home and doing Radiology, and I MADE that what I wanted to do. Now it looks like I have to do that with something else. Because I will not work fast food for the rest of my life.
We have a show this Saturday. I am looking forward to it very much. It will allow me to leave these thoughts behind and become one with the music. Yeah thats sounds fun. Everyone come, it will be good times.
Bridgeport Park, Alabama.

The title of this post is the summarization of my weekend. This was one of the funnest weekends ever. We recorded on this particular time frame and I must say, that it was an experience. So now friends, the summary of my small trip to Murfreesborro with a group of the best guys in the world.
Meeting at Parts' house at one was what kicked it all off. We got there late as usual, since it is the whole HMW style. We loaded up and got on the road at about 20 till 3. only to end our journey in Kimball. We stopped at a gas station and got all the essentials to get us on our way. Me, Dustin and Parts in one car, and Zach and Brent in the other. when we got to the gas station, it was our crew , and brent's with an old guy in the back seat. He somehow lost his licsence because of the devil. So Brent, being the nice guy that he his, gave him a ride.
We got on the road with Dustin muching on Doritos in the back seat and Parts and me griping about how terrible Brent's driving was. We had a blast. We sang, laughed, talked, loved, ate Sleezy's doritos, made fun of each other, got lost, and finally, arrived in M-borro.
We found the place by a solid stroke of luck and met two of the nicest people in the world. Nathan and Chris. This was their house that we were at for 2 days. We all got introduced and got right to work.
Parts started first. We all set up however so he would be able to hear everything and get through it all. It went amazingly well. Parts being the great musician that he is, had little trouble at all. It was a blast as well.
After Parts finished, we all made a voyage to Burger King. After we found the place and ate dinner there. We then left and got lost yet again trying to find 426 Lytle St.
We found the place, went inside and got to work on Zach's tracks. He had a bit of trouble as with the rest of us. Layering isn't the easiest method in the world.
After we finished with Zach, we hang out with Chris for a while. He is really awesome and fun. He sang to us and told us all these funny ass stories. Parts left after he finished and the rest of us stayed the night.
Sleeping was an adventure all it's own. Me, Brent, Zach and Dustin all slept in the living room of this house. We almost didn't because of everyone talking.
I woke up several times that night. It wasnt the most comfy accomodations in the world. Then I had this dream. I was fishing for Alaskan Carp in the ATLANTIC ocean with the guys that were recording us. I was the only one fishing however. Chris was playing a song he had wrote and singing. Nathan was swimming. i was fishing away and all of a sudden, this loud ass fog horn started blowing at me. It kept coming closer and closer and all of a sudden it was a ship. 3 football feilds long and ll stories tall. It got soo close that I could touch it, then it hit our little canoe-like boat and I woke up. The fog horns ended up being Dustin snoring in my ear next to me.
That day, we all woke up and went to this Chinese buffet. I was paying for dustin because he payd for mine the day before. We finished and walked up to the front to pay and I payed $14. I walked out with Dustin and then Brent comes out and tells me to come back in. the lady told me I only paid "seven dolla" rather that what I actually did pay. So I argued with her for 5 minutes about it. I was holding everyone up in the line so I said Fuck it and payed her. We left and I was fighting mad. The stupid Chinese are screwing Americans out of their hard-earned money.
To make a long story short, we came back and recored in this order. Dustin, Me and then Brent. Matthew came up as did Justin and Rebecca. We did some gang vocals and then Zach and I made the long trip home with Justin driving. I'm sorry if I didn't get so detailed there at the end, I got tired of typing. talk to Dustin for a more detailed version.
I had the best weekend ever. I really enjoy hanging out and playing music with those guys. They are like my brothers and I would help them out with anything I could. The CD is gonna be awesome. It sounded really good unmixed I can't wait till the master comes out. Everyone should check into buying one for sure. I am positive you won't be dissappointed. See you guys.

I haven't posted in so long now, I have been sooo lazy as usual. I have rendered myself to only reading everyone elses rather than updating mine. I have no idea whats going on with my life right now. It is going in circles and I don't know whats happening. I keep trying to focus more on school than anything for some reason, I don't have any clue why, but it seems to be my top priority to pass everything, get out of school, and start making lots of money. Classes and getting to them on time seem to be such a problem here lately. I have to change that or I am never getting out. I guess the reason I think about this soo much is, I am tired of being broke all the time. I am sick of living from week to week and NEVER having any money. SO that is why I am trying to focus on working as well. I want somewhere that I can work five days a week. 30 hours, and nothing to it, I can start having money again. ALSO, the most important thing, my relationship. She has put up with so much of my crap here lately,I don't know how much longer she can take it, she has stayed by my side for almost a year now and everyday of that has been amazing. You know what i mean??
I seen Napolian Dynamite again and actually found it funny this time. Brian said that it was the funniest movie ever when he tried to talk me into buying it when it was released. When I seen it, I was like... DAMN this sucks bad, and then the other day out of the blue, I watched it again and actually laughed. This surprised me so.
I am thinking of working at Taco Bell. IU would be getting a pay raise, more hours, and would be graced by the presence of Brian and Charlie having sex with each other next to the deep fryer after closing, EVERY NIGHT. This would be worth the while because I would photograph it and sell it on E-Bay for $119 to the first bidder. it would later be found in the Guiness Book of World Records with, "Man found raping child with smallest penis in entire world" brian being the child and Charlie, well you know. Yeah so I think I will try harder to go into the damn fast food business again.well, later guys, comment and tell me what else I should look for if and when I get the job.

wow what a wondeful thing you shiny little Live journal, you beautiful piece of artwork that someone has put so much time into making so people like me can never post on you. oh well, MY LIFE, that is such a braod statement these days, as I sit here in the computer lab skipping out on my A&P class, I think to myself, what am I doing that makes me so busy these days.... I am going to school with one class in Chattanooga,( that which I am skipping currently) i have been working 5 days a week, going to see my GF whenever possible and getting ready to record the full-length in a few days. that will be a blast, I can't wait! have any of you ever dated someone for an entire year? I haven't untill 18 days from now and I find myself patting my shoulder for good job and good luck. It is awesome to put 1 year of your life with another person just to throw it all away!!!! I hate all of you!! no wait.... this is the wrong ending... ah, lets do the happy ending, it's my post. ok, the band gets a multi-million dollar contract..hahaha, Whitney and I stay together for many more years to come. there I like that ending.
P.S.-hey kelli do you remember that time I said "I serious" on the computer and you said I have the literacy rate of a 98-year-old-black man? I was thinking about that the other day... thank you for giving me hope in life...

man this day blew tons of ass... the only thing good about it is I fell asleep watching harold and kumar go to white castle. that movie is insane. i really wanted to find a chita and ride it after i seen that movie. (take that kelli!) I sat at home for the lack of gasoline in my tank, that plus I have been reading a new John Grisham book all day long. My off days are getting shittier by the week...i read 200 pages today, you might not think thats alot but for me and my RHMS education, that is a damn good accomplishment in my book (and it was my book). I am about to go to a b-ball game with my little love-slave, no just Whitney, sorry to upset you.....

The Hope Conspiracy |
] |
these days are crazy, Im not talking about anything in length but my life is full of nonstop craziness. I find myself caring so much for someone, so much that it over powers me and i must bow down to it and let it take my life where ever it wants to. I have spent so much time with a person and they fill my thoughts and make my mind relate to everything I do every minute of every day. Don't get me wrong, this is my life, this person is my life, and everything I can see in my future. Have you ever loved someone more than your own life and have never cared in the least to admit it? It is the best feeling in the world, aside from knowing that they feel the same for you. your life becomes a spiral of thoughts and hopes and dreams that you will see them or talk to them at the end of every day and you can't wait for it to happen. you put almost a year and counting into something, it becomes you. it makes you want the future to be as beautiful as your wildest hopes and dreams have ever took you. you know it will soon be there and you can feel and taste the thought that the love of your life, the absolute thing that makes your heart beat and the thing that makes your day go by will soon spend eternity by your side. it is surely a beautiful thing to waste for those who have ever had this wonderful God given gift or those that will in the future. I find myself sometimes maybe doing small things to throw away bits and peices at a time and I have to stop and realize that I CANNOT screw this up and I take a breath and think that this is my LIFE and it will always be this way, it is just the way I had imagined it, laying down at night and dreaming about the person I wanted to spend forever with, the one that God has sent down from the Heavens and straight into my arms. she is the one I have forever dreamed of, the one who's kiss I could taste, the one I could feel holding me when I needed the comfort of this angel. If i could only keep her in my life, if I could make everything perfect for a little longer and prove to her and everyone that soul-mate is a real, everyday thing. I have found it and it is my destiny to keep this wonderful feeling inside me when I hear her sweet voice and see her beautiful face, the face that is burned into my memory forever.

HMW's old-school hxc song..... |

our show today with 4 great bands has been cancelled. I absolutely hate that. I was really looking forward to seeing Stop Calling again and it now makes me sad and depressed inside.
I think Charlie should make a website for all of his insane stories and post them on there. I am also a firm believer that we could sell them to people, they are the most hilarious thing i have ever read in my entire life.
wow, has anything happened eventfull lately? has Brian found another crush yet? has another group of people had the "priveledge" of seeing the brain? are there any good hxc shows comin uo soon? I hope so....
you know it occured to me a while ago that the 27th show may indeed be rained if not snowed out as well... What are we gonna do? send twelve bands back to their practice spaces? I hope not, this is like the show of the century.....
I think the show will be moved to Jan. 15th so everyone be there if u went to the skatepark tonight you are stupid..... see you guys........

the "show" last night went pretty well, even though I had hell trying to get there. There was a bit of drama that i am SURE will not be happening again. After Parts had to leave, we all just hung out in Brent's garage and played music with randoms.
After all that I stayed the night there and laughed my ass off at all the drunk people floating in and out. I kept a smile on my face the whole night which was good. All except for the fact that my truck ran out of gas, which kept me from going home after all.
The shows are coming up pretty fast. We have 2 new songs to unload on everyone that comes out.
Christmas is almost here and I almost have that old feeling i did about it when i was about 9 years old. It is exciting and I am sure it will be a blast.
I saw something beautiful today. The snow was coming down from the heavens while I was driving home and looked so peaceful, not your typical "Marion County" winter. I think it is about time to fly past everyone's memories of the "Blizzard of 93". I get soo tired of hearing about that sometimes that I wish it would snow in July so everyone would shut up about it. Maybe we will be replenished after over a decade of crossed fingers and hopes and dreams.....

wow, I haven't updated in a while... I have been pretty buwy with life. I think I am gonna throw a lit match into my truck. It seems to mess up more than anything I have ever seen, I am not gonna be able to go to college in Chattanooga next semester as of right now because of my fucking truck. I thought about not enrolling next semester and getting a job and transportation. I might still be able to take classes but I would have not as much free time as I used to. guys, tell me what you think, I need someone's help.
I went to stop calling!'s band practice last night with brent, sleezy, brian, rebecca, and justin, it was a blast. I love sop calling's music ti is really good. It's also cool that we are on the same record label as them. I can't wait till we play a show together again.
We should be going into the studio within the nest couple of weeks. The other band is out of the studio and are waiting on their master copy and then we get our turn. I am looking forward to that.
Hey, i am gonna take a pole for just a little bit of my friends on here. If you think that it will be too fucking cold on the 27th and that we should have the show indoors, yeah, you know what to do. educate me.....

nothing going on today. I am going to Scottsboro to promote "Hell Freezes Over-stock" with Brent and Brian. The Showdown is interested in playing this show which will be heaven with all of these bands I love sharing the stage at one time. I can't wait, screw the outside part of it, not my problem I will just have to move around to get my big-ass warm...
I went to Whitney's last night and then afterwards I helped Brian load a large dog-house sized church onto a trailer for a Christmas parade. I felt a little rejuvinated after that, does that count?
Can't wait to practice tomorrow, we need it and alas, I need it. I have been wanting to have practice for a while now and it will surely be a blast.
The other day when we had it, Parts bass drum head was busted so it went shitty.....
Oh yeah those other bands playing are In remembrance of me" and Sold America.
sorry guys.....

yes I did do those girly ass quiz things... I found it funny that charlie was the weapon of choice in all of those. Sleazy likes to sneak into girls showers. I was very bored at the time so call me gay if you wish.
I had to work last night which was fun, we got an insane amount of boxes in to rummage through. We had two more left after it was time to close. I got to wear a huge Sonic the Hedgehog costume which was a blast....
The show with AFA is now going to be at Bridgeport Park which will be freezing cold in the last days of 2004.(DEC 27) It will be fun though, I don't know how we will pull it all off but I am just there to play guitar for HMW not worry about how the show will go down. That is Brian and Brent's job. I hope they treat AFA good though. That will either make us or break us depending on how their night goes...
Everyone try to come out and see this one, it blows a hole in the last BP show's heart....

thats all I can gather right now, there may or may not be one or two more bands coming but I have no idea who they are or what they are called. I will say alittle bit more about this show when I know myself. It will be fun though to just play at a BP park show and not actually put the show on. I haven't had the priveledge of doing that in a while. I hope everything goes well and there is a huge turnout, considering the fact that it will be negative 20 degrees outside.
