I've Always Been Crazy, But It's Kept Me From Going Insane.

I have never claimed to be a man who could focus on one thing for very long, this why I am still working on a 30 project over a year and a half later. Had I been diligent I would have been done in January of this year with one post a week, August with two posts a month and with just a single post a month I will be done November of next year. Should this be done by then I will be surprised but one never knows, sometimes I will focus and put all my energy into something unimportant for a few months at a time which is what happened when I started this blog way back when. Anyways let us celebrate the half way point with...


I would pay good money to have facial hair like that.


 Post 15 "A Song That Describes You" That's about as accurate as any song can get, the title hits the nail on the head and lyrics such as "I can't say I'm proud of all of the things I have done, but I can say I've never intentionally hurt anyone" are as true a statement I can make. I wouldn't quite go as far to say it's my motto but sometimes life is best lived outside the lines.
      It also helps that this is a great tune by a country outlaw legend. I'm slightly dissapointed I couldn't find a studio version of the song, the one plus is that the old timers sound almost identical live as they did on pressed vinyl.  In the words of my father "The fact that Willie is still alive and Waylon isn't is proof there is no God" I wouldn't go quite that far, but it is unfortunate that most people only know Waylon for the Dukes of Hazzard Theme, one of my favourite shows to watch when I was in elementary school along with The A-Team which I am watching as I write this. Back then I watched both shows on Showcase Action and tonight I get to watch a thousand bullets get fired and 20 cars flip without anyone getting injured thanks to Netflix.

I Started Thinkin’ Bout The Rest of My Life

I Hope the Rest Of My Life Involves Long Scarves


Thinking about the future is one of my least favourite things to do but I seem to end up doing it all the time. Usually when I should be doing more productive things like sleeping or focusing on my job. I would probably be on much better terms with the future if I had more control over it, or if it happened to be just a little bit more clear.
     As someone who can't competently plan what will happen tomorrow let alone years down the line the future fills me with a sense of unease. There's also the fact that I am far too young to be concerning myself with such things but here I am none the less. If I were to fathom a guess as to why my future frightens me it would be because both my near and far past are filled with mistakes and regrets and after crunching the numbers it appears what is to come will follow the same trend of that which already is. There's also the fact that I am resistant to all change even that which would make my life better and all the future contains is an endless amount of change.
    As Joe Strummer once said "The future is unwritten" sadly my writing is illegible.
