I'm not particularly friendly, mostly because I never know what to say...I'm awkward. I'm easily bored, and easily boring. My philosophy is everything to me, it's the only way I get by. It took me 22 years to figure out what being in love actually means. I will be your best friend, because other people matter to me more than I matter to myself. I will always be there for you if you need me, and sometimes even when you don't. I can be way too much sometimes. If I care about you once, I will care about you forever. I'm sometimes terrible in bed, but i have my moments. I constantly forget where I am, and what I'm doing. I'm not always down for a good time - I like to be alone, it's centering. I love to sleep, I love to eat, I love music. I will never lie to you, I will never cheat on you. Nothing hurts worse than being a disappointment. You can depend on me most of the time. I will have a hard time trusting you. I will never have everything I want - I would never allow it.
i went to school, and i graduated, and i hated all of it. now i either play guitar for my band, or tech guitars for other bands. my goal is that in 10 years, this blurb will still be true.
Who I'd like to meet:
right now, i have everyone i need.
idk what to tell you! except that there's a show at the Khyber on the 6th, and afterwards is the last ever official Spruce Almighty party. and if you aren't there...well...idk what i will do. cry. endlessly. so you better be there!!
yeah keep me updated, that sounds fantastic. and i'm actually in wilmington north carolina, so delaware would be quite the trek. and unfortunately, that makes us farther apart than i think you thought. fortunately for our friendship, we both enjoy a good road trip. so when you do roll through, you can show off your irrefutably superior guitaring skills. i just ordered motorcycle maintenance. it cost me a penny + 3.99 shipping.
yeah, i totally dropped the ball. my bad. i probably use myspace only a few times a month. but that sounds awesome, all of it. who's your new band? any idea when you'll hit the road again? i'm in school until december, with a summer in between. i don't have plans, but i'll be in wilmington at least until christmas i guess. the sooner summer would sweep in, the better. i'm ready for something different. i got rock band 2 for my birthday and i've been feeling like a rock star recently. if you think that's lame, well, fine. it probably is. i think you live a pretty sweet life. when people ask me what i would do with my life if i could do anything, i say merch girl. i think living out of a van sounds fantastic. if you haven't read Through Painted Deserts by donald miller, maybe you should. sorry i suck at being a friend who stays in touch. i'll work on that.
REMY!!! I FUCKIN MISS YOU! Last minute BUT my bands first show is Thursday night at Chaplins at 7 in spring city. AND my 23rd bday is Friday.. come watch us and come party dude!!!!
