Drunk Friday

Its been the end of a hard week

Get yourself a cold drink

Hope you’ll just be left alone

------------------------------------------

All I want is a good time

Hey… is that a crime?

I just don’t want to sit at home

------------------------------------------

Its Drunk Friday, nationwide

Pop your tops and open wide

Even if whiskey aint your brand

We’ll have the greatest time and…

And have the best night of our life.

--------------------------------------------------------

Put a buck in the jukebox

Pick the best song that rocks

And dance with the prettiest that you’ll see

------------------------------------------------------

Order a shot and a beer

Raise it high and cheer

And toast to the troops across the sea

-------------------------------------------------------

Its Drunk Friday, nationwide

Pop your tops and open wide

Even if whiskey aint your brand

We’ll have the greatest time and…

And have the best night of our life.

------------------------------------------------------

It’ll never get old

After one night, you’re sold

The Greatest Blessing

Have you ever asked yourself what is your greatest blessing? It's One of my favorite memories, but my most emotional. The greatest blessings God can give you is the chance to say, "goodbye." When a family member goes, it is typically quick and unexpected and I had never had the chance to say goodbye. But as a child I saw my Great Grandfather and Grandmother deteriorate. I never knew and it was probably best that my innocence was there to protect me, but there was always a void. These people were important and they were stripped from me. But in February I got the news that my grandfather was sick and that it was curable. I thought nothing of it and took it as a flu-like ailment. He came home and he had lost 60 or so pounds and you could tell it wasn't right. In the months to come he had gotten worst and was in for chemotherapy and had radiation sent through his head for further research. By this time it was inevitable that we were going to lose him. When June came he was checked into Spectrum and I was still in denial, I almost am to this day. Today I still believe that he's still on vacation and he'll be home the day after next. But the last time I saw him was near Father's Day because I remember giving him his card. My brother and I walked back and forth, in and out of the room. This man was so worn out and lifeless, but everytime Tyler and I walked in he take a deep breathe and sit up. He could barely open his eyes. Right before I we left I sat next to him, on his death bed and held his hand. Guys dont hold each other's hand, but this was a guy that was there my entire life. I had grown up being babysit by him. He bought me little cars and we built my toy box together. So I sat there next to him for a few minutes. And I told him, "I love you" and he said, "I love you," back. These were the last words I remember him saying. He would die a few days later and was probably the hardest week of my life. Im just so happy that I could say goodbye and let him know how I felt. I had never had the opportunity before too bid a farewell, which is why I am so happy that I got to say goodbye to one of the most respectable people I had ever met and loved. But where this happy story gets worse is that he lost his battle to cancer that was caused by smoking. He had quit smoking in 1984, but it still got the best of him. This is the cause that will likely kill my parents as well. Something so stupid that will cause such great pain in years to come to your friends and family. Why would anybody want to smoke. I will never smoke. It will kill you before you should die and is probably the most selfish thing you could ever do. Dont do it. I miss my Grandfather very much and I would do anything to take one more ride with him on the bike.

The Calm Before the Storm.

Nothing is really going on right now. But I do look foward to only one thing every year. My home away from home is in Brooklyn, MI and goes by the name of Michingan International Speedway. This years edition consists of 2 races with 650 miles of racing, a Smashmouth concert and the best party that the Mid-west has to offer with 140,000 of your closest friends. I cant wait. Oh, which reminds me that I need some beads. I cant wait. Im bored with life so this will jolt it with some energy.

The Curse Continues

I've actually been on a roll lately, but as time takes it's toll, the eminent boldens. I've comes to realize that I have a curse. One that is quite peculiar and has no points of explanation. It deals with the combination of my family and women. Its very odd because the deterioration of the relationship happens in a matter of days. Allow me to explain. Everytime a member of my family has any kind of contact or a family member finds out that im interested in and/or dating somebody, the relationship breaks up within 6 days. I have 3 instances within the last 3 months where this has occurred. In April, a girl comes over for a birthday. I don't get any contact from her in weeks. I bring a girl over to grab some fire wood and CD's, I introduce her to the family and 4 days after that is the last contact I have with her. And last Tuesday I tell my sister about a girlfriend, the following Monday she breaks up with me. None of these breakups were my fault however, they were all lead by self-priciple, an other guy, or distance. Weird how this happens, consistently. Your opinions? I shall call it "The Clark Curse"
