I said something in a conversation last night that really got my head on backwards. I realized that it's already october and that next month is November. The reason this messes with my head is that it's the start of what was/has been the longest/hardest year of my life. It's where my more personal songs like "Strong Arm Broken", "Karma" and "Battlefield of the Mind" were written. I'll blog more about it later as the time comes around. As for now? Life couldnt get any better. I have the most amazing girlfriend in the world and the best friends anyone could ask for. Just finished producing Deficit's new album that's planned to release in Feb. and a single to surface in the next couple months. Also speaking of Deficit I'll be filling in for their drummer this sunday at nutty's north in sioux falls, sd so be there!
Last monday a good friend of mine Scott Thomas was shot and severely injured in his bus.
More on the story
I was given the chance to hangout with Scott a couple years ago and kept in touch ever since. He's a great guy, an amazing drummer and just an all around dude. Go to

Positive vibes people! Boom! haha Today is just a great day! Got up early, went for a run, got all my productive needs done and now just chilling. It's a beautiful day outside so I assume I'll be spending the majority of it out doors. I'm taking the next couple days to unwind and enjoy life (even more than I do everyday). I've gotten a little tied up in things and talking to some old friends has put the past right back in my mind but I'm done living off of what has happened in the last few years that had just destroyed me. I blame 3 people for saving my life over this time, mostly in the last year which happened to be one of the hardest of my life, Morgan, Katelynn and Jesse made things easier. Live life, that's really all there is to it. Don't hold back and enjoy it. QUIT BEING NEGATIVE! Have great weekend people!

WHAT THE FUCK?!?!?! lol Just messin' what ya'll up to?!?! Me? Well nothing much! Just thought I'd blog to you since it's been awhile since I've taken the time to just talk to those of you care. I've been pretty caught up in loving life the last few days. I've finally gotten everything to where I've been working for it to be. Finally settled into my own place and gotten the crazy moving mumbo-jumbo done. I've really been focusing on myself lately which is why I haven't blogged/Facebooked/Tweeted much lately. But...BoOOOOMm I'm back and better than ever. Now since all this post is about is me ranting on and on I'm switching gears. ATTENTION NEGATIVE PEOPLE: Nothing is ever bad enough for you to spend a day, a week sometimes a month carrying on and being depressed and making it your goal to bring other people down with you. My goal everyday is to take negative situations and find the positives in them. You should do the same. If you need help, I'm sure you know how to get ahold of me if you need somebody to talk to. Soooo with that said. BOOM next subject. Weather in the state that I live it sucks...I saw snow the other day and its fucking cold out. Like I was wearing a hardcore parka today just to run a couple errands. fuck. ps I appologize for the vulgar language in this blog. I have a mild case of being pissed off but I'm finding my positive vibes as I type. Last thing I feel the need to toss in here. Katelynn: Now 98% of people who are reading this are prolly going to say I'm stupid, crazy, ect. but I feel like I need to let this out. She's the best thing to happen to me in a long time and I can't express to anyone how much I love her!
Well dayum son! looks like I'm out of time.
That's all you get..Enjoy it..BOOM!
Hey guys! My facebook/twitter followers have been asking how things are going. Well my response is, FUCKING AWESOME. Today is day 8 in my new apartment and seriously, I dont think things could get much better. I'd like to thank Morgan and Katelynn for the post on my blog. You guys rock. Also thanks to everyone who's been there for me over the last few months. So this post is basically a thank you to everyone.
Thanks to:
Katelynn I. - For showing me that after being kicked down, pulled up and dropped again that there is still alway new beginnings and that love still exists. I love you.
Morgan R. - Man i dont even know where to start with you. You've been there for me like nobody else has, you've helped me keep my head up even when I was face down in the mud. Thanks man.
Sarah L. - My "Sister Seperated at birth". You also helped me through some of the hardest times over the last few months and things may have been different of your input wasnt included. Thank you so much!
Alex F. - Big guy. Always a good listener and never really angry about anything. You're an inspiration.
Sarah H. - Sister, you've been through hell and you see some sides of the hell that others dont. You helped make me moving into my own place happen. Thanks.
Jesse H. - Jesse, man you and I have been through burned bridges, horrible shit storms. You always understand without me having to say anything. You've shown me the true meaning of friendship.
Logan S. - Man we've been around it all. No matter the distance, the time. We always got it! Keep it strong bro!
And last but not least -
Everyone else who reads my blogs, follows me in twitter/facebook, the fans of all the music projects I've been blessed to be apart of, and last of all. You, the ones who read this, and show me that somebody out there is listening, and hopefully being helped.
