My summer hasn't started, but I'm not sure when it will. It was a lot simpler when I was 5 and I didn't feel like I had to support my mother. I never thought the day would come when the signs of her aging would be so apparent, and while I rubbed her sore fingers, time began to feel inevitable. So I'll move to LA and get a job, because that's where the moneys at, that's where I can help pay the bills, I go so that she can rest.
It may sound easy, I talk about it the same way that I talk about transferring schools. She needs the money, but I thought it would be different. I thought a lot of things would be different. Time moves whether or not I'm there to catch it, I'm finding it hard to come to terms with that.
One night I was sitting in my car with Nick waiting for the high school theater to open. This was only minutes before Mr. Anderson decided to scare the shit out of us by slamming his face against the window and running off into the night. We were parked in front of the pit, and the rain was coming down hard. I don't remember who he was with at the time, I think it was an Emily. But he was so down, and I wanted to help him out, but I just couldn't relate to how he was feeling. But, I don't think that he was hurting the way that I am now. They tell you that time is supposed to heal, they say that it's supposed to get better. But it just keeps getting harder and harder. My chest constantly feels nauseous, my knees and toes tingle and cringe constantly, I never thought that emotions could be so physical, I didn't know that mental things could speak my language. What happened to me being a rock? I don't know whether I miss that or not. On the one hand I wouldn't trade these emotions for anything, but on the other hand, I really wish that they would stop.
It's not like I didn't try to let go. I don't want to feel this way, but every song makes me think about her, every time I see a nice car, a big house, kids, adults, cats, dogs, life, death, dreams, all her. I'm envious of whoever comes next. I want it to be me, but its impossible to be sure with distance, time... luck? Time, you are a bitch. So are you distance, fuck off.
Well, I feel a lot better now that I got a chance to vent. I'm going to go do something masculine now to balance myself out. Maybe football?

I had a strange dream last night that I really didn't enjoy, I've had a few of those lately. 2 Days ago Tony Hawk was making out with some guy at a party and they put ski ramps around my school to help students to avoid running into lighting zombies. So Lisa and I basically spent the dream hiding from zombies and a fat kid who made the sky rain while trying to rescue Ashkahn and Luke from the insane asylum (which looked like a pre-school) because Luke had been pulled over twice; both times by fire trucks for some reason.
But my one from last night was strange too. I was at my school, but there was no Porter B building, it was replaced with a building that looked identical to B building but was called Kresge. Anyways, the Army was on our campus fighting a war with an enemy about 1000 yards away on an opposing beach (we were closer to the beach in the dream) and they were using seagulls to track the enemy movement and clear away fog of war, like a video game. Everyone was really supportive of the war and all the boys were going to do some WW2 Omaha Beach Assault thing and get torn to pieces, and I couldn't convince them to let me drive a tank. The army was also shooting a 50. caliber machine gun into the side of the building. So before I was supposed to leave, I went to see Lisa, who for some reason was in Kresge. She was in her room with my neighbor Sarah talking on the phone, and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get to her. Then instead of rushing the beach I had to solve some puzzle for a devil/imp thing and then tried to find Lisa again, and I woke up still searching. Grrrrr…
On a lighter note: My morning quickly turned good when I woke up to find that my neighbor Marc had uploaded new music onto my I-Pod, all of my old stuff (before my CD's were stolen) and tons of new stuff. This may take a minute, he gave me 311, A perfect circle, a tribe called quest, acdc, adema, akira yamaoka, anti-flag, allele, apocalyptica, atreyu, audioslave, balzag, the beach boys, black sabbath, the beatles, blitzkid, the bloodhound gang, blur, bob marley, bright eyes, chevelle, children of bodom, cky, the clash, clutch, coal chamber, cream, the cure, cypress hill, daft punk, daniel lioneye, danzig, dead kennedys, death cab for cutie, the deftones, devildriver, dimmu borgir, dir en grey, disturbed, dj danger mouse, dog fashion disco, the doors, dope, dawnthesun, dragonforce, the dresden dolls, dropkick murpheys, drowning pool, dry cell, the eagles, electric six, eminem, evanescance, the faint, faith no more, fear factory, fireball ministry, flogging molly, flyleaf, foo fighters, fort minor, fountains of wayne, franz ferdinand, gackt, gang starr, godsmack, gogol bordello, gorillaz, gravy train!!!!, green day, guitar wolf, guns n' roses, the haunted, the headwig and the angry inch soundtrack, helmet, HIM, hole, hoobastank, horrorpops, HORSE the band, hot hot heat, house of pain and everlast, iggy pop, ima robot, in flames, Interpol, Iron maiden, jet, Jimi Hendrix, Jurassic 5, kenna, the killers, kittie, korn, lacuna coil, ladytron, le tigre, led zeppelin, the lillingtons, limp bizkit, linkin park, lollipop lust kill, lordi, lovex, the lovemakers, lucky boys confusion, marilin manson, Spawn: the soundtrack, Queen of the Damned: the soundtrack, the mars volta, the matches, mc lars, meat loaf, meshuggah, metallica, mindless self indulgence, the misfits, motley crue, the moone Suzuki, motorhead, mr. bungle, mudvayne, the murderdolls, muse, mushroomhead, my chemical romance, neil young, nickleback, nine inch nails, nirvana, no doubt, NWA, NOFX, oasis, the offspring, oingo boingo, ok go, one minute silence, orgy, outkast, ozzy, POD, The Matrix: soundtrack, panic!

YAY for more music!!! How will I ever listen to it all???
