i love my wife

Mon, 15 May 2006 18:34:00 GMT

the minute before we play
i'm pacing waiting anxiously
i can't wait to hit the stage
and say hello to jersey
and when the last note rings
and when i've sung all i have to sing
every minute i will count
till the next show in the next town

what can i say
that can explain
all this time
i'm loving life
there's not a day
that i could say
all this time
i'm living out my...

the feeling is screaming out
the words of the things i think about
hearing them coming back
from the crowds mouth is perfect
and when the curtains close
i'll realize how fast time could go
thanks for everything
you know how much this means

what can i say
that can explain
all this time
i'm loving life
there's not a day
that i could say
all this time
i'm living out my dream

what this is to me
is more than words could mean
i guess dreams do come true
this song itself is living proof
what this means to me
is more than it may seem
i guess dreams do come true
this song itself is living proof
what this is to me
is more than words could mean
i guess dreams do come true
this song itself is living proof

what can i say
that can explain
all this time
i'm loving life
there's not a day
that i could say
all this time
i'm singing out
a song about
a dream that's coming true

its been almost a year since i updated this thing, and what a year it has been. from being on awesome tours, touring overseas, the record doing amazing, me getting married. who would've thought? all i can say is life is good and i couldn't be more thankful.

alright this goes out to all you web designers/html/flash/cgi/whatever i missed people. i have a favor to ask of you, you want to design a website? well here's your chance. i designed chiodos.net, and its not made for the web, its not convienient for you surfers out there, and its starting to annoy me and probably with others. so here's the deal, if you want to do this for free, it doesn't even have to be anything special just something sleek and simple, comment if you're interested.

when going undercover, one must understand the risks. like headaches.

it's so nice outside i love it. i washed andreas car, well actually i just sprayed the hose and she washed it while i was goofing off, BUT nonetheless i did help, and it was fun. and i played with my dogg, fantastic.

and i went to practice at the local and it got a facelift, it looks very nice, practice went goood, tour did us well and were tight like this()

ALSO, tour was great, i had an awesome time hanging out with all the new people we met on the road this time, thanks to all who helped us out along the way and came to our shows it was a great tour, i look forward to this summer its going to be crazy cool, to say the least i'm stoked, it will be brotastic.

started working out today, hopefully i stick with it, because i'm lazy about stuff like that, also if you didn't notice when i turn sideways i disappear.

i need a job, i'm going to be here for a little while and i want some more equipment, unfortunately that involves money, sooo job hunting will be my focus for the next couple days, blah, stupid jobs. poop. butt. diarrhea soup.

i'm going to go enjoy the weather, even if that means stepping outside for a couple minutes and coming back to sit on the computer, over and out.

the weirdest part of that is my parents are going to help me pay for which i didn't even see coming cause they never give me money or anything for that matter (except food), well i take that back sometimes they will when i go on tour but its never more than 50 bones, so to see them cough up like $300-$400, thats totally insane.

other than that things are going good, not as depressed anymore, in fact generally happy. had practice today, get a new van tomorrow, going to the mall tomorrow, things are going good, and definetely looking up from earlier this month. AND i get to hear the mixed mastered final cd when we get to new york on tour, which i'm VERY VERY VERY excited to hear.

rented resident evil 2 yesterday, it sucks, bad. but i'm such a zombie fan i had to watch it, WAIT, i'm no fan of zombies in fact i'm terrified of them, i've read the ZOMBIE SURVIVAL GUIDE by MAX BROOKS, yes its a real book, so i know exactly what to do when they attack, if your interested i will answer any questions to any scenarios, i am so ready for the attack of the living dead, bring it on.

we leave for tour this friday! which i'm excited for maybe we'll be some place warm, that would be great, but yeah its been long over due for a tour and the road once again is calling my name, other things about tour that i'm excited about
1. we got rid of that stupid face yellow bus head
2. we'll have a van and trailer
3. shows everyday
4. warm weather (hopefully?)
5. potato guns

oh yeah, and come to the show the 18th at jamestown in sagnasty, or else...i won't see you until april.

anyways i'm done, thats it, nothing left to tell except i HATE huckabees, stupidest movie ever, the only part that i liked was the credits because it was finally over, what a waste of life that put me through, but yeah, peace out, see you saturday, watch out for zombies, good night.
