So here it is again. Holiday season. The time of year when you randomly feel obliged to buy something from Sharper Image for the Uncle or Aunt that you havent spoken to since last year .... I have never understood the pressure that comes with the whole present-buying thing. I mean, parents, wives, girlfriends, boyfriends .... I get it. We love those people. We also know them a little, which means we can buy a gift that actually means something. But how many times have you found yourself in The Discovery Channel store in the Mall, staring at a DVD of 'The Amazing Planet' and trying to think who you could give it to ? It might just be me, but I always end up getting stuff that means nothing, for people that I don't even know!!!
WNCI's Jingle Ball:
It really is a whirlwind when we do that kinda thing. One minute, I am waking up, drinking starbucks and trying to clear the fog in my head and get a picture of my day. And the next I am crawling back into my bed at about 3.30am having soundchecked for five hours, meeted and greeted, shook hands, smiled a lot, played a show and drove home. Its a ton of fun, but I wish I could learn to be in the moment when its all taking place. I spend so long working on a show and thinking about all the details that once it arrives, I am too busy going over stuff in my head to appreciate whats going on! The band sounded really tight! Its a bizarre thing that we do, and I always expect it to fall apart at any moment. But it doesnt, and people seem to have a lot of fun - both audience and band go home smiling. And isn't that what it is all really about? I'd like to thank Josh Hoge and Jeret From Bowling for soup for being FUCKING awesome. & of course my good friends Marty & Dak for well... U know...
We had some drama at the show with our set time but in the end it all worked out & I have to remind myself everything happens for a reason. BY THE WAY KEEP THOSE CALLS COMING INTO WNCI REQUESTING "BOYS DON'T MATTER" OR TEXT THEM AT 55979.
We also have a new song we are very excited about called "Loser of the year" co-wrote with a good friend. I'll post the lyrics below let me know what you think...
I have now officially rambled on for long enough. Pilates and weights today, followed by a party to hit tonight. What a strangely balanced day I have planned! Love you all. Peace.

LOSER OF THE YEAR
Never should have walked you to the door
Never should have told you those 3 words
When you said you wanted less I wanted more
Isnt that the way it always works
Never should have called you yesterday
Still waiting here for you to call me back
I Wonder if you wonder if Im okay
Pre Chorus
And All I have left are photographs
Scattered on my floor and torn in half
Chorus
And I hate myself for falling in this far
Every minute wanna be where you are
Put my fist through through the wall cause its so damn clear
Im holding on cause its so hard to let go
Drivin by your house staring at your window
Before you close your blinds if you look down here
Youll see the loser of the year
Verse 2
So I hear your going away to school
Saw your friend Jamie out last night
I tried to play it off like it was cool
But It was killin me inside
Thought about how we crossed that line
Sneakin out so we could be alone
It all happened right at the wrong time
Pre Chorus
All I have left are memories
To remind me of what we'll never be
Chorus
And I hate myself for falling in this far
Every minute wanna be where you are
Put my fist through through the wall cause its so damn clear
Im holding on cause its so hard to let go
Drivin by your house staring at your window
Before you close your eyes could you look down here
At the loser of the year
Bridge
I should move on
I should give up
But youre in my dreams
When I wake up
Did I give too much?
Was I not enough
Out Chorus
Either way
I hate myself for falling in this far
Every minute wanna be where you are
Put my fist through through the wall cause its so damn clear
Holding on cause I never want to let you go
Outside your house standin at your window
Before you close your eyes could you come down here
At kiss the loser of the year
