This letter can be heard at the end of the song Violence by Blink 182. I think its pretty amazing so I thought I'd share it.
"My dearest, I've missed you very, very much since that last night we were together. And I'll hold that night especially in my memories for years to come. I've been turning it over and over in my mind lately. I've read your letter through at least four times, and will probably read it more times before I'm through. I've been sitting here, looking at your picture, and getting more homesick every minute. I've wanted that picture more than anything else I know of, except of course, you yourself. I keep thinking of you darling. I keep wishing I could be home with you. I want to leave in the worst possible way so I can come home to see you, but, things don't look so good on that subject. And this war has spoiled a lot of things for everyone I guess. I've never been so lonesome in my life as I am right now. I'm completely lost with out you darling. I never realized I could miss any one person so much. I just hope it won't be too much longer until I am able to be with you again, and live a sane and normal life."

Interesting Times
Since my last post we have been in the recording studio twice. The first time was pretty cool. We got Hard to Be done and tried to put down Amanda, but it ended up sucking really bad. So the next time we went we scrapped what we had done on Amanda and just spent the whole time on that. Only problem was that Jason, the producer, blew up at me because he thought I was complaining about him taking to long to set and wouldn't even listen to what actualy happened. Now he is all threatening to not allow me to come back or to not allow me to use his set next time. Whatever, I dont need his stuff anyway. And if he isn't going to allow me to come back because of something stupid like that, fine, I'll find Vick another drumer to go into the studio with them. These songs are easy that I know plenty of drummers who would be only to happy to fill in for me. He is just being an ass hole. So anywayz, we still have two songs to finish eventualy, so I have to go back eventually.
My birthday was last week. I got to go home and see the brothers and my mom for a while and spend some time at my moms house. I also saw Corps Bride and Saw II, both of which I thought were great movies. Nicholas gave me a black hat that has a Superman S on it, Jeremy gave me that Ben Folds piano book i wanted and $100, and my mom helped me pay for a new video camera at Walmart. Its on lay-away so I have to keep going up there and making payments on it or else they put it back up for sale. I also had Lili, Travis, and Jennifer take me out to Lou's and get me really trashed :) Before that Son took me out to Applebee's and bought me a ton of food. Then before that I hung out with Travis, Sabrina and Oscar and we carved pumpkins. Laura was there for a little while, but she left to see her roommates dance thingy in deep elum.
Speaking of Laura, we had lunch today together. It was really cool. I had band practice right before hand so I ended up getting to The Tomato at 2:25 and she was already waiting on me. Woops. I mean we had said 2:30, so I was 5min early, but I dont like when people have to wait on me. Hopefully she wasn't waiting for long. So like I said we got there at 2:30 but didn't end up leaving until 4pm! It didn't really seem like we had been there for that long. Every time I would think the conversation was about to die one of us had something else to say. I did kinda feel stupid when we said goodbye though because when she said thanks for inviting me, I said, "no probelm. Do you want to do it again sometime?" she said sure and I actualy said, "cool, I'll call you."..........I'll call you??............Did I really just say that? I know its not a big deal, but I dont call anyone. I talk to them online. And its such a standard line.......I'll call you.........lame. Oh well.

Good Luck Mr. Stewart
So tomorrow is the big day, my first day to get into a recording studio! I'm trying to find a video camera I can take in and film us recording,but no one seems to have one.Oh well, it will still be totaly awesome. We practiced last night and ran through all the songs we wanted to record. I have to admit some of these songs are starting to sound really good now that we have put some real time into them. We are probably going to lay down Hard To Be, Amanda, and hopefully Stublin because I really like that song. Tomorrow we have from 1-7pm to do everything we can before we have to leave.
I went out The Garage last night and holy crap that place is different on Thursdays! We got let in for free though since the guys know us from playing there so often. They were having some kind of beauty contest with the girls there so all of the girls were dressed "nicely." We watched them all trying to strut their stuff and such before I left to go home.

To many Laura's!!
Well its been a few days so I figure its time for an update. The interview with Laura isn't going to happen because it turns out her paper has to be on mental disabilities. I messaged her on facebook offering her help on finding resources since between me and my mom we know just about every major doctor in TX. That was a few days ago and she never responded back so I guess she either doesn't need my help or doesn't want it, either way, no skin off my nose.
Surprisingly enough I met another girl named Laura the Friday night at Lucky Lou's waiting for Liesl to show up for her bday. Well ok I didn't actually meet her that night, I met her in Kharma some time before but I don't remember that. We hung out for a while at the bar then went to Jimmy John's to try to eat off our would-be hang overs. After that, since I had put a few drinks in me already I actually had the balls to ask her back to my place to hang out for a while. I know I know, very unlike me, but damn it I had to do something besides let her walk home in the cold. So we hung out in my room for what seemed like 30-45min I guess until she finally got tired and said she needed to go. She told me to call her when I have another show but I figure I'll call her sooner to hang out sometime, get some coffee or something.
My roommates are all planning on leaving the house here when the lease is up on Dec 1 so now I have to look for more roommates. I thought Travis would want to come live here but he thinks this house is to crappy for him. So whatever, let him pay his $450 a month for his small apt that he has to drive or take the bus to get to school for. I'm staying right here thank you very much. This house will be even better with out the junkiness and laziness of these people here. If I can get roommates who will take care of this place with me this house can be awesome again.
