Music Monday
Crying Like A Bitch
…and there’s no denying, you were crying like a bitch. Godsmack I know it’s Tuesday and this is a Music Monday type of post, but the temperature’s been below freezing and it’s slowed the ideas in my brain. My apologies. When I do a Music Monday post I tell you what a song means to…
Lose Yourself
Look, if you had one shot, or one opportunity to seize everything you ever wanted in one moment Would you capture it? Or just let it slip? Eminem This is my go-to tune when I’m feeling defeated about my writing. Most of the time, it’s all good. I sit down and it flows somewhat comfortably;…
Unwritten
I break tradition Sometimes my tries Are outside the lines Natasha Bedingfield *It’s called “venting” not “bitching” and it’s cheap therapy. Friday sucked. Thursday completely blew and as a matter of fact the last month has been pretty shitty. There have been some high moments over the past two years, but let’s face it, ever…
Complicated
You’re trying to be cool, you look like a fool to me… Avril Lavigne The original title for this blog post was, “I’m really not a douche”. I know the title may be hard for many of you to believe, but its true. I really am a good guy. I come off edgey at times…

My Own Worst Enemy
It’s no surprise to me I am my own worst enemy ‘Cause every now and then I kick the living shit out of me Lit I like myself. Not in a boastful way. I don’t puff my chest out and say, “Look at me! I’m the shit, yo!!!” I do say ‘yo” a lot, but…

Music Week recap
Thanks to everyone who indulged me in this project and read my stories. I appreciate you checking back to see which song I picked next and why. When I originally came up with the idea it was to be fun and to tell you how music influences me–a dude with the musical ability of a…
Sunny Hours
I’ve only got the sunny hours, brightest hours of day I never count the gloomy hours, I let them slip away I promised you all a bonus gangster rap song, but after much looking and soul searching (and let’s be honest—laughing my ass off at some of the lyrics) I decided to go a bit…
Rock Lobster
Boys and bikinis Girls and surfboards Everybody’s rockin’ Everybody’s frugin’ B-52’s People ask me from time to time what my favorite band of all time is and I honestly have a really tough time with that question. If you were to look at my iTunes and go strictly from the number of songs by individual…
Just Like Heaven
“Show me how you do that trick The one that makes me scream” she said “The one that makes me laugh” she said And threw her arms around my neck “Show me how you do it And I promise you I promise that I’ll run away with you I’ll run away with you” The Cure…
Just Another Day
There’s life underground… Danny Elfman–Oingo Boingo For me personally, nothing says growing up in So. Cal. quite like Oingo Boingo. I don’t know what it was like in other parts of the country, but if you lived in LA, the OC, the LBC, the Val(ley), or the IE you were pretty much a fan of…

Losing my religion
