| Its been awhile. To sum it up. Star Wars rocked, truck isn't
done, found a new drummer. Chris is comming back to practice but
he still hasn't talked to me so he is getting a rude awakening when he
gets there. I think he thought because he left me and TJ would
fail. And then he heard that we were ok something hit him.
And I love how people are so interested in what me and TJ do. I
got a couple phone calls from people to see how the band is and all
this BS. Its just retarted, its been like even when Joe Barr was in the
band, just dumb argh. Well we got a show June 25th and this time
around I am just going to handle everything. I just don't care anymore.

| Well I just got back from the DMV, makes me want to
punch myself in the face. Finally got all the new tags for my
cars. So in a week or so, I will be driving the 67 again, yay.
Work was ok this week, I got some shit jobs and then a couple good
ones.
I haven't worked on the El Camino lately. I am
just out of money and I need to buy those brackets for it, and then it
will be done. I am just sick of having to wait around for
everything else.
On the band thing, still no drummer. I pretty
much have a show set on June 25th at St. Mike's with 3rd Vision and I
think Side Show. My boss/friend Chris is most likely going to
fill in on drums. I just want to play like 8 songs and then get
out. I also pretty much have a accustic show in this coffee shop
in Glassboro near Rowan. I don't know all the details on that or
when it is going to be. I wanted to check the place out before I do
anything. On top of that I still have to make sure TJ will want to do
it. Well I am off to practice.

| Well back to work today. I don't even want to be
there anymore. I did some more work on the El Camino, but I am at
the point where I am out of money for it. I am out of money for
everything in general.
Bret left for Illnois today. So really he
should be halfway there by now. Another friend gone, just wonderful.
I talked to Nate today. He has me and TJ's
lyrics. He said he would be around this weekend to give them back
which is good. I also talked to Chris today. He said he was
sorry about what went down. Unfortunetly shit already went
down. I already burned my bridges with the other bands I had
lined up because of him. He left me and TJ hanging. I got
an email for that drummer Justin today too, he said he was sorry for
ditching the second practice. I don't know if I should even
bother setting up another day with that. I talked to Jim today
and the band he was going to set me up with turned out to be bad news.
The one guitarist from that band turned out to be real big into
drugs. Well after hearing that, I decided that was a bad idea.
I also jammed out alone tonight for awhile. I
came up with some ideas for songs with the lyrics I wrote. Who knows
whats going on anymore

| Today was really long. Not only did I drink
last night and then get up for work, I had to take ASE test
today. I think I bombed them both. 120 question that were
all multiple choice killed me. I hate taking tests, I have never
been able to take them even since grade school. That just sucks.
Well Bret is leaving for Illinois on Sunday
night. The only kid from high school I really talk is out of
Jersey. Thats just plain old beat. His parents offered me
his room and to live there for free. I am just going to stay
where I am. I lived there before, but I don't want to be in their
way and the commute to anywhere will suck. On top of that Bret
won't be there and soon his brother Shane won't either. Shane
will be switching colleges and most likely be living on campus. I just
don't want to be a pain for anyone. Here I pay rent and pretty
much stay out of everybody's way and I am still close to everything,
even my cars.
On to music relative shit. The drummer is
supposed to jam out tomorrow night with me and TJ. I haven't
heard for either of them. All the Jersey Tragedy lyrics are
apprently missing. I am beyond pissed about the whole
thing. I just want my lyrics and the music I wrote. I know
at Chris is just being a coward I guess because he refuses to call me
directly and I have been reduce to argue with through myspace
email. What is that shit. So really screw all of that mess,
I am tired of dealing with it. I just want my lyrics and my
music, thats all.

| Last night was cool. Me and Gail went and hung
out with some friends from my good old high school years. I hated
the bar though, and this one kid Mat I never really liked was there. It
was funny to watch him hit on Gail though. Its really depressing
to see all those guys off doing things with their lives and going to
big colleges and then theres me. I can barely afford anything
living in one of my best friend's basement. Yep depressing.
Saturday I went to Spectator's to see Third Vision
play. That was really fun. Seemed that everyone there I
knew. Even my boss was there. People were there that I haven't seen in
years. I drank way too much than I had planned on.
News on the truck. I am almost finished the
last piece of the bracket I need for the power steering. I either
don't have the energy to work on it or I don't have the time. I
am getting really frustrated with it. All this customizing is
slowing me down.
Me, TJ, and Justin were supposed to practice Monday,
but Justin got called into work. We are supposed to practice
Friday. But if Justin can't make then I am going to start thinking
stuff completely over. I am going insane not playing in a
band. Me and Gail were talking about last night on the way home
from the bar. I think this time around I am going to start doing
things my way. Not be an asshole about it, but not flex or bend
on certain things. The second I let Chris get what he wanted,
thats when the band fell apart. It just sucks, all I wanted to do
was play shows and apprently thats not what anybody else wanted.
