Jonathan Thomas... One Day Old

Uncle Junebug!

It's hard to believe! My sister became a mommy today!



















Congratulations, there, Debra and J.R!!! We're proud of y'all... Just wondering, though... When are you going to name the kid?!

Good Forward From My Old Friend, 'Mare

A mouse looked through the crack in the wall to see the farmer and his wife open a package.
What food might this contain?" The mouse wondered - he was devastated to discover it was a mousetrap.
Retreating to the farmyard, the mouse proclaimed the warning : There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap in the house!"
The chicken clucked and scratched, raised her head and said, "Mr.Mouse , I can tell this is a grave concern to you, but it is of no consequence to me. I cannot be bothered by it." The mouse turned to the pig and told him, "There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap in the house!"
The pig sympathized, but said, I am so very sorry, Mr.Mouse, but there is nothing I can do about it but pray.
Be assured you are in my prayers." The mouse turned to the cow and said "There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap in the house!"
The cow said, "Wow, Mr. Mouse. I'm sorry for you, but it's no skin offmynose."
So, the mouse returned to the house, head down and dejected, to face the farmer's mousetrap alone.
That very night a sound was heard throughout the house -- like the sound of a mousetrap catching its prey.
The farmer's wife rushed to see what was caught. In the darkness, she did not see it was a venomous snake whose tail the trap had caught.
The snake bit the farmer's wife. The farmer rushed her to the hospital,
andshe returned home with a fever.
Everyone knows you treat a fever with fresh chicken soup, so the farmer took his hatchet to the farmyard for the soup's main Ingredient.
But his wife's sickness continued, so friends and neighbors came to sit with her around the clock. To feed them, the farmer butchered the pig.
The farmer's wife did not get well; she died.
So many people came for her funeral, the farmer had the cow slaughtered to provide enough meat for all of them. The mouse looked upon it all from his crack in the wall with great sadness.
So, the next time you hear someone is facing a problem and think it doesn't concern you, remember -- when one of us is threatened, we are all at risk.
We are all involved in this journey called life. We must keep an eye out for one another and make an extra effort to encourage one another.

REMEMBER,,,,
EACH OF US IS A VITAL THREAD IN ANOTHER PERSON'S TAPESTRY;
OUR LIVES ARE WOVEN TOGETHER FOR A REASON.
One of the best things to hold onto in this world is a Friend.

Not everyone on my mom's side of the family sucks. She does have two cool brothers, Randy and Terry. Terry... Yes, the founder of Cruel Music's WDN. WDN has been, more or less, dead ever since Ryan left. Terry hasn't appeared in any official WDN recordings since 1994, but it's kinda inspiring to know that he's still out there "gettin' it done." He has recently been filming our uncle, Ford, in some (according to my parents) very funny bits. Who knows, maybe I'll get my hands on a copy of these tapes that Terry has been working on, and convert them over to Cruel Music standards, and attempt to breathe new life into the dying WDN...

Current Interests:
Smallville
Rodrigo Y Gabriela
Final Fantasy 7: Dirge Of Cerberus

One Year Ago...

If I would've drove by this house, one year ago, and imagined that I'd be living here today,
I would've thought I was crazy.

If you would've told me, one year ago, that I'd be living in this house with my soulmate,
I would've told you you're crazy.

If I would've imagined, one year ago, that my soulmate would find me on myspace.com,
I would've thought I was crazy.

If you would've told me, one year ago, that I could ever be this happy,
I would've told you you're crazy.

My Big, Dumb Day

Ear infection...
Pop tarts...
Two hours late for work...
Feeding the stray dog...

I woke up Sunday unable to hear anything in my right ear... And, the saga continues! It started showing signs of improvements today, but it sucks again right now, at this very moment.
Considering that super secret job, which involves pop tarts, and pays $13 an hour, and has lots of neat little perks, but it's on the night shift.
Supposed to have worked from 10-7 today, but due to the job interview with the top secret company I worked from 12-9. And my boss didn't even care. He was just glad that I showed up at all.
I've been feeding this really sweet boxer bulldog at work for the past couple weeks. Someone set her off in the parking lot, and she's homeless, and starving, and very afraid of people.

Mom Update

I don't "get" my mom's doctors. They keep going back and forth with her, sending her on an emotional rollercoaster. "You've got cancer," "You don't have cancer," "You've got 5 years to live," "It's not life-threatening." They don't seem to know what they're talking about. The hospital she's going to is full of a bunch of students / future doctors. If it was me, I'd go somewhere different. I guess she's stuck there, though, because it's, like, the nearest hospital that my dad's insurance will accept. They're saying that she's going to have to take chemotherapy for the rest of her life. They'll probably end up changing their minds about that, too, before long. I don't know... But, yeah, she does have cancer. They all agree on that, now. It's in her liver, and in her spine.

Recent Pictures

We brought my old buddy, Tommy, home with us a couple weeks ago. He loves it here. See?













While we're on the subject of cats... Here's (the recently neutered) Ozzy with his tree:



















And, here is the sweet, old lady of the bunch... My Scruffy... She's 15 years old now! Here she is on Christmas 2006, getting high on cat nip:













Here's an older picture of me and my baby. Why? Because I can!













Here's the future of Cruel Music... A sneak preview... This is the "before" version of the brand-new Cruel Music recording studio:













(The previous owner of our house used it as a work shop... I'm going to use it as a different type of shop... A "Music Shop..." Working title... Subject to change at any second... Look for big things coming from Cruel Music in 2007. I just did a measly little ONE release for Cruel Music in 2006! Cruel Music has been slowly deminishing over the last few years. This new studio is going to breathe new life into Cruel Music. I promise! Really! I have a studio, and I have the love of my life. I'm going to be really, really inspired to make music in 2007! That's a bit of a resolution of mine...)
