and what we had don't mean a thing
and what we had is already gone
it's all

nobody's here, just empty space

Its pretty rare, that you have one of those defining moments that you actually realize is occurring as the moment is passing you by. I almost feel like you do after the come down from an intensive mushroom trip, where you're making plans to better your life and appreciate those around you, only for the first time ever I feel like this sober. I watched the movie Zeitgeist tonight, after a recommendation from my a few of my friends. And for those of you who have seen the movie, no, I'm not about to go on some anti-government rant or start to talk about conspiracy theories. It just made me take a step back and analyze how I was living my life. Amongst all the images it shows you, of people in pain and suffering, and amongst all of the horrible facts they present to you about the wars going on, there is a really obvious message. Life is short, and precious.
I'm going to make it a personal goal to enjoy each moment as much as I possibly can. As of late I've been trying to spend as much time away from the computer as possible. I can't get it out of my head that I've done nothing but let my mind grow moss for years now. Looking back at how I've lived my life for the past while, I'm almost ashamed. So many opportunities have blown past me, so many nights spent playing warcraft drinking alone for no reason. It's disgusting. I've never been happier than I am in the summer, when everything is active and I'm out every night of the week. It's blatently obvious to me that I am a social person, and almost nothing is more enjoyable than after a week spent with friends.. sitting at home and writing a song, or reading, or well just about anything. I also want to make sure that whatever I do in my pass times is beneficial to my mind. Music, reading, writing, learning, in-depth conversations, loving, appreciating. There's too much to enjoy in life to sit around and mope about anything. Sounds hypocritical coming from me now that I think about it. But when I'm in a mood like this, I can't see why there are any problems in relationships, why not just enjoy each other's company? There are so many things to learn from and share with the people around you.
I've been so upset this past week because things have fallen through with someone I really care about, and being upset about it has done nothing but make it worse between us. She is my best friend, I'm going to fix it as soon as I can. I miss the funny noises she makes when she's frustrated. And even if it's done between me and her, she's someone I will always appreciate as a friend.

Measure me in metered lines and one decisive stare in the time it takes to get from here to there.
My ribs that show through t-shirts and these shoes I got for free.
I'm unconsolled, I'm lonely, and I'm so much better than I used to be.
Im terrified of telephones and shopping malls and knives, drowning in the pools of other lives.
I rely a bit to heavily on alcohol and irony,
get clobbered on by courtesy.
In love with love and lousy poetry.
And Im leaning on this broken fence between past and present tense, and Im losing all those stupid games that I swore I'd never play, but it almost feels ok.

Over in Killarney
Many years ago,
Me Mither sang a song to me
In tones so sweet and low. Just a simple little ditty,
In her good ould Irish way,
And l'd give the world if she could sing
That song to me this day.
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, Too-ra-loo-ra-li,
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, hush now, don't you cry!
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, Too-ra-loo-ra-li,
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, that's an Irish lullaby.
Oft in dreams I wander
To that cot again,
I feel her arms a-huggin' me
As when she held me then.
And I hear her voice a -hummin'
To me as in days of yore,
When she used to rock me fast asleep
Outside the cabin door.
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, Too-ra-loo-ra-li,
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, hush now, don't you cry!
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, Too-ra-loo-ra-li,
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, that's an Irish lullaby

I know were just like old friends
We just cant pretend
That lovers make amends
We are reasons so unreal
We cant help but feel that something has been lost
But please you know youre just like me
Next time I promise well be
Perfect
Perfect
Perfect strangers down the line
Lovers out of time
Memories unwind
So far I still know who you are
But now I wonder who I was...
Angel, you know its not the end
Well always be good friends
The letters have been sent on
So please, you always were so free
Youll see, I promise well be
Perfect
Perfect strangers when we meet
Strangers on the street
Lovers while we meet
Perfect
You know this has to be
We always were so free
We promised that wed be
Perfect

Elliott Smith - Between the Bars |

Drink up baby, stay up all night
With the things you could do
You won't but you might
The potential you'll be that you'll never see
The promises you'll only make
Drink up with me now
And forget all about the pressure of days
Do what I say and I'll make you okay
And drive them away
The images stuck in your head
The people you've been before
That you don't want around anymore
That push and shove and won't bend to your will
I'll keep them still
----
sigh

Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river
You can hear the boats go by
You can spend the night beside her
And you know that she's half crazy
But that's why you want to be there
And she feeds you tea and oranges
That come all the way from China
And just when you mean to tell her
That you have no love to give her
Then she gets you on her wavelength
And she lets the river answer
That you've always been her lover
And you want to travel with her
And you want to travel blind
And you know that she will trust you
For you've touched her perfect body with your mind.

i went out out downtown tonight with dave, his girlfirned lindsay and my cousin, and after getting way to drunk and trying to skateboard on a shelving unit that collapsed meneath my feet, i fear i headed home. somewhere along the 2 hour walk i met a really really cute punkrock couple, the guy I knew from highschool and turned out to be the old bassist from the Sweet Janes, which somehow rang a bell, and the girl was named sophie who knew stu, weird. Ottawa is small and I like it. i ended up talking to them for a good hour, all in all, fun night. still havent figured out why my ears wont stop buzzing though,

| Assault charge laid after bicycle-argument stabbing |
[13 Dec 2006|09:10pm] |
A 16-year-old youth has been charged with one count of aggravated assault after a stabbing in Orleans on Saturday.
The incident occurred in the area of Charlemagne Blvd. and Valin St. at about 7 p.m. after a male rode his bicycle into the bicycle of another youth. The two argued and one of them was stabbed once in the torso. The victim was taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. The suspect was caught shortly after by passersby and detained until police arrived.
Police said it appears to have been a random incident.
Right, so this is happened through the path at the end of my street on Saturday. I walked past it like 5 minutes after it happened, saw all the cop cars and the ambulance pull off.
Crazy people these days.
