How's it going? Still hung over from NYE? Probably not considering there were no fun drinks at the party me and my dedicated viewers attended on the night of December 31st, but I digress.
I picked now to write again because I'm in a bit of a rut... I thought I was going to sit down and crank out a new song for my band when I realized the emotions I was trying harness for this new song were a little too, um, raw. So I got a little off topic, so here I am in my basement 3 beers later just staring at my reflection in my blank TV screen.
Staring is weird cause you stop as soon as you realize you're doing it, but if not you can last for several minutes at a time. So staring at myself I got a lot of thinking done about a lot and most of that will probably fund it's way into future posts. 2 main things managed to stick with me through this self staring contest, well 3 if you count the fact that John Mayer has the best deep thought music in the world. 1st is that I'm not very happy with my current personal state of affairs, and that's my problem to deal with, and again will be talked about in the future, but more importantly, I was thinking about how it's the end of the "holiday season" and so all the joy and cheer and merriment is gone for the most part.
So kind of tied in with my first point, I thought back to my favorite Christmas movie of all time: White Christmas. Top to bottom, just a fantastic movie, if my family doesn't make time, I find time to watch it all by myself and I frequently sing along. You all should be thankful I didn't snap chat this one out to y'all.
The song that stuck in my mind tonight was the song "Counting your Blessings". It's all about not being able to sleep and what the 2 protagonists really want with each other in the rest of the movie and in life. So as I continued to stare at myself in the TV screen and questioned everything about myself, I eventually gravitated away from the "have nots" and focused more on what I have in front of me every day that I should be thankful for. Sometimes life deals you a rotten hand, and lately I think I've been sulking a little too much for my own good. So that stops as soon as I hit publish on this post, not quite cold turkey, but I'll begin the process, it's weird cause this is all happening under people's noses and I find it funny, I hope the other party involved gets a kick out of it too.
So yeah, that's all for tonight, see y'all in the AM,
and keep your beans cool,
