Too busy to blog.
Too busy to finish that song.
Too busy to read that book.
Too busy to clean.
Too busy to do it right.
Too busy to not cut corners.
Too busy for a lot of things.
But not too busy to watch TV or browse the internet or check email again or look at my Twitter feed or like that status or go on Reddit or click over to Netflix or cruise Instagram or do whatever else is distracting me from what I really want to do.
Too busy?
Just an excuse...
I write about making music, succeeding and failing, trying to stay on top of all things sports, and the meaning(-less)(-ful) meanderings ping-ponging around in my brain...

OCD just... works for me...
Lots can happen in almost three months...
I start a brand new job with an awesome company on Monday. And I can't think of what to say in this blog because I've forgotten how to write in the past three months...?
Question mark because I'm not sure if that's true or if it's just an excuse.
Excuses are easy. Much easier than taking a good hard look in the mirror and bringing to light your own shortcomings, misgivings, and failures.
OCD, huh...? Maybe. I do eat my burgers in circles...
I just googled "eat burgers in circles" and nothing very interesting popped up. I may or may not have to make my way down to San Diego to fill my belly soon, though.
My double stroke roll is coming along nicely. I guess that's what's happen when you actually practice and don't just rely on natural talent.
I am arrogant. I am humble. I am clueless. I will stumble. But if I can keep my feet underneath my body for another moment or two, I know I can become truly great.

Time suck...
I wonder how much time I wasted on the internet, tweeting, trolling facebook, watching TV this year...
Enough time to:
- learn how to do a proper drum roll?
- figure out how to format the metadata of an mp3 with album arwork and track details?
- write 30 more songs?
- read Chase 100 more books?
- take Rachel out to dinner 26 more times?
- write 50 more blog posts?
- see 15 more instances of live theater?
...
I should rethink the next time I want to use the excuse, "I didn't have enough time"...
