happy birthday to me....

happy birthday to me....

happy birthday dear scott, happy birthday to you.
and many more on channel four on the floor.

in about one hour from now, 34 years ago, i was just peeking my incredibly large cranium out and taking a quick look around. checking it out.... seeing what was up...

and then i decided to come on out and be cool. and i did.

and i am..

still......

30 minutes later...

i'm listening to the new todd snider record.... i just got it...ferrell got it for me. i've listened to the first three songs twice now. i'll get to the fourth, fifth and sixth one later.

the first song goes, "old timer, old timer, too late to die young now
old timer, five and dimer tryin' to find a way to age like wine somehow."

it's weird listening to it on your 34th birthday. real weird.

i wanted to take this time to rededicate my 35th year of life.

i pledge:

to write at least three times a week in scott's thoughts.
to write at least one movie review a month for mac.
to write at least one good song a month.
to not repeat myself more than twice a year.
to give away at least one cd or t-shirt a month.
and actually mail it off.
to get my record finished by the new year.
to get live recordings up on the website.
to be brutally honest.
to get better on the guitar.
and harmonica.
to not be such an asshole..
scratch that.
to be cool.
yeah.
to be relentless and unmerciful.
to try and give the best show i can at every gig.
unless it's a really shitty gig.
or the wreck room.
or if i don't feel good.
etc.
to work on my movie script more.
than i do now.
okay, that's enough. i don't want to get carried away.

again..

15 minutes later....

i was born right now.

maybe, i'll shoot off into another dimension if i post this within the minute i was born...

cya on the outside,

know what i mean,

scott

p.s. if i don't come back, then i'm on level 9 and you can disregard all of my pledges because i ain't coming back. ever.
