My god, it's been some time since I've updated anything on this website. I still lurk and occasionally check out others' pieces, but the long hours of browsing and communicating with other artists on this site are many years behind me. Perhaps it's because I've had the mother of all writer's blocks for the last few years. I'm lucky if I can scrape together enough inspiration to finish a single new song per year. But I persist in some form or another. My soundcloud is more or less full of increasingly decent forays into musical expression. As always, I'm still quite a ways from where I want to be, but even if I don't release an actual album until I'm in my 40s, I'm finding that I don't mind so much anymore. I just like doing what I do, whether or not I have an audience to read or listen to me.
So I have to ask, how are all the people out there still tethered to my page, eh? How's this world treating you? I'm sure it's been pretty rough for more than a fair share of you.

Here's to You
Because I prefer to have SOMETHING up for a new journal every 7 months or so:
Got a new jam buddy
My roommate and I are thinking of trying to record an EP's worth of material or more by the end of this month. And so, our journey began, with the first step being this: https://soundcloud.com/voluntary-trashcan-kids/bar-band-blues
If you guys have a moment I'd appreciate you checking this out. :D I'm pretty excited.

For the lulz, because my journal is probably the least read part of my page. Besides, I need pretty pictures in my journal every now and again. :B
Eyes always open, hoping
for a tomorrow that may never come
It's all I can do to keep waiting without going insane
I've changed even more than I thought I would
and every burn on my tongue says the same
It's too late for youthful optimism
I've grown older than my years would have you believe
Each future I look forward to has more storms ahead
But I find myself laughing at everything
I can't win, but I can't really lose either
Stuck in the rut of hopefulness
I'd also like to say :woah: t

The Life 'n' Shit
I'm flailing away at completing my second semester at ye olde University.
This year could have gone better. Of course, I take some of the credit, I could have had better study habits going into this thing.
Ah, well, it's always nice to get your ass kicked to set you straight.
I'm hoping I can move off campus this summer and be reasonably able to pay for it.
Looking at a couple of places and all that. I'm only worried about the people I've talked to giving me a "ah, on second thought" like I've gotten a couple of times. Once I've signe

Hi J!! It's really been a while. I hope you're doing alright in the grand scheme of things. I really hate writer's block, so I apologize that that's happened. I'm sure a day will come relatively soon where you just EXPLODE with words and ideas. Maybe in the spring time! Spring and the dead middle of Winter is when I get my boosts.
I also hope your music continues! I didn't know you even had a soundcloud or I'd have listened to your stuff by now!
Anyhow I had to say hi after I saw you posted something!
So HI!
