Day 2 was somewhat uneventful, though since I was surrounded by mountains and ocean and overall beautiful-ness, I still took a bunch of pictures. We worked the first part of the day, and then headed to the airport to pick up the rest of Agathon Group. I was like a dog in a car window …

Hawaii Trip Day 1
For those of you who don’t know, the company I work for (Agathon Group) made a wonderful and excellent decision to bring all of us out to Hawaii for a work trip and conference. Since I work from wherever there’s an internet connection, I thought “why on Earth would I go to Hawaii for only …
Faith and I
Another new song. Faith and I I think about the times you rode your bike down And we spent all night just laying in the flowers And I said “Hey June, what is it you wanna do?” You said “Let’s climb that old water tower” And as this mad mad world slowly turns We’ll sit …
Why’s Facebook Always the First to Know?
Another new song. Figured it was time for another long title song. Why’s Facebook Always the First to Know? Here comes that old apology For everything I can’t stop feeling And you know just what you do to me I’m just another heart you’re stealing Cuz you’re just like that old line I’ve always heard …
The Sad Bastard Waltz (in two movements)
Finally a new song! I might record this and actually put a video up here of me playing it, but in the meantime, here’s the lyrics. The Sad Bastard Waltz (in two movements) You share your cigarette as you hang up the phone Sure sucks getting caught in this, but it’s nice to not be …
Hands in Hand
(wow, so I meant to post this ages ago when I actually wrote it) My first spiritual that I’ve ever written. You won’t be able to tell from reading the lyrics, but it’s actually written in the tune and rhythm of the bells outside of my house that signal when the train come by. And …
April Says Goodnight
Apparently I have a new “months” theme going with my songs, with “May Calling” being the last song. So next song may be called March something. April Says Goodnight The power’s out on State Street when April says goodnight And the heartbreak comes faster without the benefit of light We’re so sad and no good, …
May Calling
This highway never seemed so long And it’s all the same Yeah it’s all the same Stuck in cities that we always swore we’d leave But we never change No we never change I always thought that if I just had more, then my insecurities would stop controlling me But there’s so much that I …
Some Chicago Observations
– My neighborhood has a couple different diagonal running roads (including my road) and so the streets cut up the land a little bit. The result of that is that there are two parks in my neighborhood that are literally not even big enough to throw a frisbee. Here’s a pictures of one of them: …
Sunset Strip Seems Crowded When You’re Sober
Lights out in Hollywood, the west coast is sinking I don’t remember where I was or what I’ve been drinking No shoelaces and holes in my feet because they like the way I move And somewhere along this road I lost you They say everyone gets their chance, and now I’ve got mine The magazines …
