And pours over the rusted world of pretend
The eyes ease open and its dark again

its my parent's anniversary today. we went out to eat.

mig is trying to quit smoking. its taking its toll on him. withdrawal symptoms. harsh. he felt like throwing up on the way home. and thats not the worst of it. but i hope he keeps it up.

i remember asking chad once why he smoked.
chad: i have a deep rooted psychological problem.

...heck, i guess it runs in the family.
