2008. the new year. año nuevo. totally. i don’t know what i’m talking about. but i did ring the new year. wait, is it ring or rang? i’m not sure but oh well. ha! well for new years, i did go out. but, it was a big disappointment. which totally sucked. or maybe i suck. let me tell you the epic story of my lame night on new years.

my day didn’t really start off until i went over to spencer’s to watch the office season 3. i think i only watched one episode that day. but we had been watching the beginning of season 3 the night before. but lets to get back to my epic journey of lameness. so, matt rindells called me and told me i had to come over to his house and play this game with him and his family. ok. so i drove myself over there and we played this game taboo. and honestly, i sucked pretty bad. i think i was the least knowledgeable person there. which made me feel like crawling into the fetus position and crying. well, i left matt’s and went home to get ready for the night.

8:30pm roles around i leave my house to go over to spenser’s but informs me of our friend whiteny who is having a party. i come in to say my hellos and new years wishes, and the first sight i see is a bunch of fresno statesorority girls taking shots. wow. intense. don’t get me wrong, they were all pretty girls. but we left and attended another party which consisted of us standing outside of a house in their garage freezing. i was not happy. so we left and went back to whitneys. by that time it was 9:30pm and all the girls were passed out by that time. pshh lame. it was very nice night seeing and hanging out with friends. i think i was the only one who didn’t get a new year’s kiss. lame, i know. but hey, it’s cool.

so usually at or around new year’s everyone makes up some kind of resolution. mine is to record with faded gray, hopefully tour with faded gray and making that band happen. writing a great american novel, climbing mount everest, single handed white water river rafting, and finding the inner peace that i so desperately need and want. and that’s just is the next 3 or 4 days. so, i’m busy.

evidently i was informed by matt’s sister, michelle, that i haven’t been keeping up with my word of the day thing that i used to do. so here is it again. word of the day!

as you can see i am bored and demoing songs via my digital camera in my room / studio. yes, my room is my studio. but yeah. this is only a glimpse of what the musical process of faded gray has come up with.

me oh my. it sure has been awhile. i’ve just been so busy you? anyways, i’m back with a whole new bag of tricks. where to start. its december. and that only means one thing. christmas! which is possibly the best season i think. i’m sitting here with my cup of coffee which i need to refill here pretty soon. but lets see. i’ll give you stuff going on. aight. fo’sho!

awesome. i know. i recently have been on a movie craze. and i just saw i am legend. and honestly, probably the best movie of 2007. will smith pulls off this movie with ease. it held it all by himself and his dog for… i’m not going to say anything because you would have to see the movie to know what i am talking about. but it was awesome. super awesome. i also watched i now pronounce you check and larry. not as funny as i thought it would be. i didn’t know if i was supposed to accept homosexuals or what?!? very confusing movie. and shrek the thrid. not as good as the first one. but hey, i guess they tried you know.

right now, and finally, faded gray is the process of demoing. and it is pretty sold to see what i have started to come up with idea’s and everything. like i said before, or haven’t said at all, musical masterpiece in the making. keep it in mind because it will! so here is the arsenal of faded grays weapons of destruction…
