St. Pattys..

First let me say Happy St. Patty's.. or like my neighbors did ALL NIGHT LONG!! Oh and still continue to show their spirit. WOOO HHOOOOOOOO PATTY'S DUDE!! WOOOOOOOO FUCK YEAH MAN, BEEN LIKE FUCKIN FOREVER DUDE!!!!!

I hate them.

I'm tired, and yes part of it is my own fault. I stayed up till 1 am.. and if you know me.. That's quite the accomplishment. I'm usually drooling on the pillow by 930 easy.. But by 5 a.m. I still was thinking we were having mini earthquakes. Pictures shaking on the walls and me being startled out of my sleep for the billionth time. Did I mention I hate them. I want to succeed in this life if for no other reason to be able to afford some land where I can live in the middle of it. I'm even thinking moving back to the freezing Montana would be worth it so I could actually afford something. Because realistically my pipe dream of writing books which in turn I would turn into horror movies is slightly.. Well, a pipe dream.. But, always the dreamer.. I continue.

And my family wouldn't approve.. Oh god, I can hear it now.

"you did wha?"
Yes I quit Computer Science to write full time and make movies...
God forbid I'm doing something that fills the hollow soul like qualities I often have.
blah blah issues, issues, issues... family, childhood, blah...

Now I drink Mojito's at 10 a.m. and live vicariously through people in my head..
Awe, yes they'd be proud!

Families aside, I've decided to take this another direction. I had a lot of posting on here of my works and book beginnings. Recently I have decided to take on my New Years resolution.. Which was to finish a piece by the end of the year. So, for the most part I think this will just be my place to talk to myself and anyone who cares to watch my unraveling process. (Which, knowing me.. should be a good time)

Nicely done. I've felt every ounce of frustration that was emitted onto this once blank page. Never give up on your dreams jle. I look forward to watching your process reach fruition within a year. Pick up "The Alchemist" by Paolo Coehlo and discover a character who follows his dreams and gives up everything to pursue it. It's an amazing read.

you got a lot of fine poems on here,
...but this one is my favorite poem.

Ahhh... so that's where all your "works" went. I was wondering about that. I thought they had gone over the Niagara Falls in a barrel and didn't survive. (That's what I get for going to Canada... Canadian metaphors...)

"... live vicariously through people in my head." LOL I can relate.

St. Patrick's Day is the precursor to Spring Break. It's kind of like when the US Navy sends a warning shot of the bow of a ship before attacking.
