2 more roadtrips, searching for work, music

over the past month its been a struggle to not feel the pressure of not having a job. ive been trying to appreciate my freetime rather than feel lazy. other than applying for jobs and looking into getting into school again, i have gone on a few more roadtrips.

i went to nashville with my mom. i was feeling distant from her and thought what better way to reconnect with someone than a trip? we had a great time and some good heart to heart talks. although i still think she is struggling with the fact that i am not the same little boy she used to take trips to nashville with. its tough on me...knowing my mom wishes i was like the old me. but what can i do? i must move forward.

i took a trip to tulsa all by myself to see dan. i saw his new house and how much improvements they had made on it. played boardgames with his fam, went sledding,went to a going away party for someone i didnt know, and drove home listening to the 7 mixed cds aubrey made for me.

last week, me and aubrey went and played at a metro stop to start preparing playing in front of people. we are sounding good and almost ready for a performance id say. carriage house on the other hand...is a slow work in progress. new songs have been hard to come by, but two im very happy with is one about a wind up bird and one about a phantom limb.

ive been racking my brain for nearly a month now, and i cant think of any position that would be better for me than greg the murse (male nurse). so ive begun looking into programs at umsl. thats all for now

Mom's are hard. You're not alone. I think your perspective is dead on and you just need to move forward.

If you become a murse, would you help take care of me when I get old and crotchety or will you go into a different specialty.

Either way, I think it might be a good field for you to get into.

Good luck living life - keep chuggin' and pluggin'

Just be blunt with your mamma. The truth will set you free. She may not jive with what your saying but the honesty will bring ya closer.
Lord knows mary hirsch and I would not be half as close as we are today if I hadn't of been honest with her and how I feel about her beauty... :)
