Oh...hello! I feel like updating at the moment. Where have I been? Let me count the places...
Oh, its such a busy time of year. School is finally finally beginning to wrap up. Shakespeare is in full swing at the theatre and I am in "The Taming of the Shrew". Its muchos exciting.
Honestly, lets face it, I don't have much to report. The past few weeks have been endlessly busy with no time for anything except sleep, work, and food. I'm living an old life in a young body. I think thats pathetic.
For the most part, I'm doing alright though. I'll even venture to say that I'm doing well.
Ciao!
If this comes creased and creased again and soiled
as if I'd opened it a thousand times
to see if what I'd written here was right,
it's all because I looked for you too long
to put it in your pocket. Midnight says
the little gifts of loneliness come wrapped
by nervous fingers. What I wanted this
to say was that I want to be so close
that when you find it, it is warm fro me
Here I write that I am sorry for any spelling errors I am doomed to make. Sometimes punctuation and grammar really bothers people. I'm pulling the beatnik thing. Doesnt matter how its written just as long as its there.
Here we go. One more time. Everybodies feeling fine. Here we go nooow. Yes yes yes Here we go.
I did, in fact, just feel the need to quote a song from a random 90's boy band. So, don't hate. Its 2:08. Late.
....i think its...fate.
...... that was a lot of -ate.
......
Okay, now onto something completely different. This may or may not be the last post I ever write here. I'm an extremely indecisive person when it comes to going back to the past. What that means is that I'd like to say a few "goodbyes", "thank yous", and "see you in another life, brotha's" incase this page gets deleted or incase I forget my password or incase I just never feel motivated to come back to mindsay.
Cameron. You're the only person who reads this thing anymore. If you read it at all, that is. A million thanks to you, mister. You're a truly incredible person. I hope to accomplish our strange goal.. which included some sort of old army coat that you bought and figuring out a meaning in the world. Sorry, I'm going way back to old conversations we had. Which I don't even know if you remember! We havent talked in a very long time. Anyway, all I wanted to say is that your music is amazing. You have a voice and I know that you're going to do so many great things. Thank you for a great mindsay experience and for saying one of my favorite quotes. I don't know if you heard it somewhere or if its straight from your mouth but "theres too much to do than waste time sitting idle." It always stuck right up there in my brain even if you don't remember saying it!
Clare. Now that I have you I'm going to keep you. Forever, my friend. I've got our plectrums all lined up in a row. You have no idea how much I miss you. Insanely, is the best way to put it. Among the many stories I have yet to tell you... one includes DOUGIE! Remind me to tell you about it next time I see you. You introduced me to this stinking rathole of a place.. Okay, so its not a stinking rathole. There are some really cool people here. Anyway, thank you and a million hugs. I'll see you when I see you. I'll talk to you when I talk to you. And I pray to God that that is soon! Oh. P.S. You're the best friend I could ask for. AND there is a Limelight Tres coming up. I don't get many oppurtunities to tell you these things and I'm hoping that you'll stop at Caribou or Dunn Bros this week and check on your mindsay. I'm crossing my fingers.
Kahley. Not only did you show me the light of the Gil-Gil you also taught me the ways of the Mar-Mar. Had it not been for you I would have no clue which way is up and which was it down, how to get north and how to drift south, or how to print paper from a very old printer. If I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place you're the weird in between turning point that I can lean on. I mean "weird" in the kindest way possible. I can't begin to describe the things I've learned from you. Plethora. Just... plethora. Thats all I can say. Oh, and snoochy. But thats a little bit of a joke, you know. Much love to you. I hope to see you soon. Bah, humbug. I know I will.
To anyone and everyone who's ever skimmed this page and not understood it: Its okay. I'm complex. Or maybe I'm simple. Maybe I have no idea who I am. Maybe I know exactly who I am. Maybe I should stop saying things like this because its starting be redundant. Its repetitive and redundant. Its repetitive and redundant.
To anyone and everyone who likes the Shins: They were just in my state and I missed them. BOOO.
To anyone and everyone who.... has no idea as to what I'm going to say either.
that would include myself.
.........
I'm thinking of a famous closing line. I'm tapping my chin, my brain is churning, the light is green and yet... nothing.
Not a speck, not a soul. Oh. Shakespeare!
This above all: to thine own self be true.
...was that good enough?
...... nope.
I have a feeling that since I can't think of a closing line I'll probably be coming back someday.
Wrote you this
I hope you got it safe
It's been so long
I don't know what to say
I've travelled 'round
Through deserts on my horse
But jokes aside
I wanna come back home
You know that night
I said I had to go
You said you'd meet me
On the sunny road
It's time, meet me on the sunny road
it's time, meet me on the sunny road
I never married
Never had those kids
I loved too many
Now heaven's closed its gates.
I know I'm bad
To jump on you like this
Some things don't change
My middle name's still 'Risk'
I know that night
So long long time ago
Will you still meet me
On the sunny road
It's time, meet me on the sunny road
It's time, meet me on the sunny road
Well, this is it
I'm running out of space
Here is my address
And number just in case.
This time as one
We'll find which way to go
Now come and meet me
On the sunny road
i am...
tired, cold, bored with life, and generally unhappy.
but i'm still sort of okay with it all.
