Friday music - Kacey Musgraves ft. The Quebe Sisters
I love when someone tells me they are embarrassed about something they do, and you get to tell them their 'quirk' actually makes them far more desirable...

Hey, I cooked Thanksgiving, hosted, got my outdoor Christmas lights up, made the most kick ass soup you've ever had, and ran a 5K.
Sorry it's late...

Friday Music - CHVRCHES
My two favorite bands right now are Mister Wives and CHVRCHES.
The entire CHVRCHES show from the Palace Theater in St. Paul on October 3rd. Amazing show.

What a freaking depressing week.
On a happier note, this song reminds me of my rebellious youth, and the cute lover who should've been there with me.

Anytime you want to end your game, feel free. I get it. You've got the power. Quality friendship is the only thing still playing costs.

Broken if you think you'll ever find love looking for one man to pay your bills and another man to service you whenever you need.
Then again, broken are the people who miss you...

They put an ad in the paper asking for a bass player who liked Peter, Paul and Mary and Hüsker Du. Kim Deal was the only one who showed up. She had never played bass before...

You hate prog rock?
Right in the middle of the latest playlist, a surprise...such a tease
A good music fan's taste is intoxicating

Friday Music - Franz Ferdinand
This band is weird...good.
Wishing Does.
It started in youth,
Eternities roulette,
By the shores of Erie,
Where the lake's storms
Never subsided inside.
Eternities roulette,
By the shores of Erie,
Where the lake's storms
Never subsided inside.
In the shadows
Of the gilded mansions,
Excess wasted, washed out,
Tempted eyes looking up the hill.
A keen sensitive girl
playing the fool to fools;
Thick, dense and never worthy.
Umbrage gushes...

Creativity abounds.
Exploration awaits.
And searching begins.
A friendly, vicious tryst;
You went into the deep end
And you thought you could swim.
A mature hand pats down the fires,
Picking you up,
Guiding you.

Opportunity.
Beauty spilled while searching;
Complacency in comfort.
Searching for a spark
And you find two.
Both open your eyes;
You search for your
Internal extinguished fire.

Both open your eyes;
You search for your

Wandering,
A discovery in discovery.
Delusional, past their prime,
Wolves looking for an easy meal.
You lead them to the feast...
Impressiveness less an option.
Lonely and misplaced,
You hold your sparks close.

Impressiveness less an option.
Lonely and misplaced,
You hold your sparks close.
Lines blur.
Formless color.
A pitch dark forest.
Unable to see the trees,
Or your own hands,
or the occasional path
To lead you free.
Panic, mildly frantic,
Even though the tools are there.

4 Years...
Four years ago, I stopped drinking. It was one of the top five decisions in my life.
Still sober, and the desire to drink rarely enters my mind. I (ironically) did dream last night I was at a sporting event and I started drinking a beer. It didn't taste good. It was weak, watered down, in one of those old waxy paper cups, and eleven dollars. I woke up, annoyed I'd even gone down that road, but my dreams, where I have little control, are about the only place I venture down that path anymore.
It's also been a good year in regards to her, the catalyst to my drinking. I think of her far less than I did at the beginning of year four.
Once again, no celebrating until year 5. Then I'll have done something; begun a journey for the better which I'll be on for the rest of my life.
