So this week I have been listening to all the demos I recorded in 2009, and I have come to realize that I haven’t finished one. I’m upset with this fact. If I was to take all of the work that it took to halfway record these songs and rolled it into one project, I would have a completed product. Dammit.
So here is where I am going to challenge myself. By the end of 2009, I WILL have two EPs completed. First, the Arrive by Sky EP. Then I will put full focus on The Falling Project’s EP. I can do this…
The Arrive by Sky stuff is fantastic, and I can’t wait to hear what finesse Tim can put on it.
The Falling Project stuff is super tight, but there is a lot to be done there… I will, and can be productive, and it starts tonight.

Where to start… An idol of mine, Michael Jackson, the King of Pop, has passed away. This guy made pop cool.
I feel sorry for his family. From his children to his sisters and brothers. I have always had mad respect for this guy, though everything that has plagued him in his career, and I will continue to respect this master of pop music. Of course, Pop will never be the same.
I very distinctly remember my father keeping me up past my bedtime on December 2, 1983 to watch the world premiere of the Thriller video. I know that that very experience only added to my fat-chanced dream of becoming a rockstar someday. I believe that Michael Jackson will live on forever, just as other greats such as John Lennon or Elvis Presley. I am sure that there will be a lot of MJ appreciation to follow this very sad day in history. Farewell, hero to the world of music. You are a legend. You are a king.
Alright. So I am going to be completely out of the loop for a few days… I have sold my iPhone and ordered the 3gs, which remains on “back-order” from AT&T. I am super siked for the new phone, but at the same time I am allready having withdraws from Twitter, Chess, Texting, emailing, music, and the Internet WHENEVER I wanted it… This is going to suck, but maybe I need this? A break might do me good 
So, to my friends… You can still call me, and I have my email. I have a back up… Just no texting 
Wow, this is going to suck. I think that I am addicted to the damn iPhone… WTF. This is my uncanny realization.
Where to go from here? I am really starting to realize that as you get older, friends slowly start to become “someone you know really well” or in some cases “someone I used to know”. Sometimes I wonder if its me that only feels like that, but then again there’s no telling. I don’t think that you are supposed to admit to this kind of stuff, but screw it, WHO reads this stuff anyways? lol.
I want a damn band. I don’t care if we tour, get popular, or “make it”. I just want to hang out, record, play shows, and drink beer with buddies. The biggest problem is all of my buddies live really freaking far away. The bottom line is that I think that I am starting to loose my musical drive… for real, though. How about I turn in my Marshall and Les Paul in for some 19″ Wheels for my Jetta?…*SLAP*
I need a band.
Blog…Blog…Blog… hmmm, let’s see. The Redskins lost. TO THE COWBOYS. I haven’t got anything recorded since I got the new MacBook, due to the Logic learning curve. I am receiving an overwhelming amount of spam to my website, and general life’s sparks haven’t been that explosive lately. <- (see what I did there? Yeah, I know)
I really want to let myself become more productive. If complaining on here is productive, I think that I deserve a Gold Record or something. Inspiration isn’t a problem. It’s motivation. I need to acquire some of that stuff. Maybe I can find some on ebay.
So seriously. I used to pump out a song a day just a few years ago. Now I can’t seem to finish anything I start. I have way too many songs half written. Maybe I need a vacation away to write. Maybe I need a band so I can make videos. Maybe I need a new Macbook Pro 
…Yeah I’ll settle for all of the above.
So I am shifting gears once again and I am editing some acoustic stuff. zzzzzz zzzzzzzz zzzzzzz
I think that it is completely freaking retarded how much control the NFL season has over my everyday functions. Thanks Washington. Now I can go have a really crappy week. FUMBLES HURT.
Well, either way…I have more music to halfway write. I guess I better get to it.
I love you, Kim.
So I got to track a few layers for guitars on “Break Me” tonight, so that we could move on with that track. Now we should be into the remixing of another song. The fun part is that I get to learn Adam’s guitar part for “Just as Fragile” because Tim the tool man Taylor said so. The damn engineer before him really sucked at tracking guitars, apatently. LOL.
ProjektKhamelion needs some help. I think that I need a producer or something to help me complete all my songs. Creating the material is the easy part. Pulling it all together is another story all together. Maybe I’ll find myself completing something eventually. I’m kind of getting tired of doing everything halfway.
Though, I am the king of procrastination. Remember that. Write it down. (or just remember it) I need to write a new song. I’m tired of all my old ones. Ok, well goodnight;)
“Just keep waiting.
Waiting for what? I’m not even sure what I’m waiting for anymore. A sign of what’s pure and true? A lesson: behave and become what you’re looking for. Ignore what’s been written and your no longer attached to it.
Am I lost, have I yet to be found? I have tried all that’s left, do even make a sound? When I’m showing my heart and my patience’s abound, my screaming is sharp and my faith has drowned.
Give me anything to pick up and believe that promises are golden and friends are real. I’ll find another place to hide and bury my patience with everything else inside.
I’ll still love the sound of her voice, the comfort she gives. She provides the absence with the truest of authentecy, and reads my dreams like a book.
The end of this journey never seems near, yet the voices remain and the visions too clear.”

I went to polish up one of my tracks tonight, and Reason won’t boot up without the DVD. WTF? Something telling me to not work on my stuff when I actually am ready to really gets to me. I am having a real shitty day and that didn’t help. So I can’t continue on ProjektKhamelion tracks until next week. Next Monday night I’ll try to wrap one up for the sake of being productive.
Other news, Brandtson delayed their album… That just sucks. I was looking forward to hearing something new from them guys. They really kicks ass. On that note, so did Matchbook Romance. WTF? (I’m Rambling,I know)
HollywoodFireHabit will be once again attempting to join forces and track some acoustic drums this weekend. Lets just hope it all goes to plan. I am stoked for this. Bring on the partyness.
3 day left on Mr. iPhone 3G
