I'm at this peak moment
at 2:45 AM in the morning, right when my body starts running on the auxiliary power. Right when you’re like, half-tripping out because you’re so jittery you’re not sleeping. Then I put on http://www.rainymood.com, and i’m all like
“hay internet. time to explore.”
Flavorite music →
Give it a listen, will ya? It’s poppy and acoustic-y, tons of harmonies! Lemme know what you think, everybody. I’m in the recording process and I’ll be having some new tunes up shortly. :D

If you are totally comfortable with your president, you’ll be totally comfortable reading this transcript. Facts are facts.

Obama is a conqueror. He has a plan, and his healthcare bill is his sword.
Before I dive into this, let me state clearly: I am not against health care reform. For those of you saying “BUT I NEED HEALTHCARE!”, Let me assure you, with this bill, when you walk into an ER, they don’t have to treat you. They can say “No” and pump you full of pain pills. It could be months...
13 Dollars
Thank you, Tim Burton. Your diabolical scheme worked. You became a reputable and visionary director, building up your credibility with me all the while. When the time came to shell the 13 bones for one IMAX 3D viewing of Alice in Wonderland, I delved into the dark theater with eager-beaver hopes.
Your characters suck. I don’t care about them, and if I can’t care about them, I...

I wrote a poem(?!)
Compel your heart to never fall in love For love is speeding fast across the night Like stars that glimmer once, evoking sighs Because they know they won’t be seen again For love tastes sweet to untrained lips But we both know its poison tricks Those who crave a thrill or two Those who crave the rush For love is not unlike a flash of light From Jesus to the man along the road Then scales...
Some people
are just evil. There is no other way to describe them but… depraved of good.
It’s like the worst kind of cancer they’ve accepted with open arms.

There's nothing
like getting the Led out at 6:19 in the morning.

This blog isn't for you
It’s for me. I have like, 6 followers. 6 of these people probably don’t even care about what I gotta say. Might as well get a journal.
You
reach a point where you’ve exhausted everything you can do, and the only thing left to do is cry.
I really miss you.
my idea of living on the edge
is putting two packets of frosting on one toaster strudel.
Good morning
I am the orange-hot ember on your burning cigarette. I am the moment between sleep and reality. I’m the nausea you get on a first date or a loop-de-loop rollercoaster. I’m a child of Jesus. I’m a ramblin’, ramblin’ dude.
Listen II:
Dear all men (super masculine men) who dislike poetry or think it is boring,
Do you listen to music? Even dime-a-dozen alt-country-rock like Nickelback? I just shuddered. That’s besides the point, however. Are you familiar with the sensation you get when the melody of a song syncs up perfectly with the lyrics, and somehow taps into the frequency of your brain and your soul to create a...
Listen:
I know it’s nothing you haven’t heard before, but I’m gonna try and reiterate the feeling you had at the end of Donnie Darko. People who have it together don’t have it together. It’s quite possible and probable for these people to feel vulnerable on a regular basis. At our very core we’re just stupid human beings that turn to various powers and substances to...
Mats
I totally made two really cool new friends yesterday. Matt Kenyon lives in England and is a video game programmer. I only added him ‘cause we have the same name but it turns out he’s a pretty rad chap. Matt Mendel is a killer musician in a killer band that opened for the Avett Brothers.
Man this world still has some cool people in it.
I don't understand
It’s like a surgically woven project, but they make it seem so easy. How do you write a good song? Maybe I’m just too inexperienced. Maybe I haven’t had my heart broken as many times as it needs to be broken. Maybe I’m just not old enough. Maybe I’m too old. Simplicity isn’t a factor. Chords, psh, those are nothing. Those are merely tools for conveying the...

Great gatsby.
This game is incredible.
Look! Creativity!
Check this out. I’ve been looking into hands-free percussion for some time now. As long as I’m a solo act I really wanna find something I can step or pound on to keep a beat. Some forums said I could rig up a kick pedal to a cowbell or some other instrument, but that’s lame. Where’s the imagination in that? Not to mention the fact that it would put me out a few hundred...
July 17th will change me
Gosh, I think I almost crashed when Austin told me. The Avett Brothers never even come close to Florida, but Scotty and Seth are headlining at the House of Blues. Sweet mother of pearl, I can barely fall asleep and it’s 3 and a half months away. I hope they accept my request to be their third brother. They probably will.
I’m gonna cry, I just know it. They’re gonna hit that...
Hello
I am a boy.
