I've been
criticizing myself over the past few months for not keeping up on my fresh new blog. Reminding myself that my throngs of followers (Sarah) would be none to pleased with the absence of my literary
stylings. Something will happen, and I say; "I should write about that!" Then the Celtics come on and I have a beer, or I look at my Bernard Hopkins glove, and have a beer. There are enough assholes writing about basketball, boxing and beer; so you, the reader, are at a loss.
I
don't know how to use these- ;'s. But I like to throw them in my writing from time to time to make it seem like I do. And lets face it, you
don't know either. Be impressed and move on.
My last entry was a link to my old
Livejournal. My life from about 2005-2007. With many holes in the later days. I never seemed to be at a loss for words then. My readers were never left wanting more, as I posted 4 times a day. Really, that was my twitter. If I only knew then what I was onto.
It got me thinking.
I'm certainly more intelligent now, then 19 year old Zach ever was. I've been threw much more, lived much more. How could he have more to say then the latest version of me? I lived on my own. Consumed something other then Bud Light and Crystal light. Stopped wearing headbands in public.
So after reviewing some of my old material I decided the only way I could get myself to write, was to go back to my root's. Put some AZ on
iTunes, crack open a Bud Light, hide it from my parents and write about my day. Trouble is I
didn't leave my house today.
My brother moved back home. First time the four of us have been under the same roof in about three years. Much has changed. Instead of me going out and hiding the fact that I have been drinking,
I'm drinking at the dinner table with my father. And my brother is doing exactly the opposite. He sent me a text today, telling me he was going to come home to do some "step work with one of my guys." This peaked my
interest. Was my brother a contractor? What the hell was wrong with our steps? I was midway through telling him I left all my tools at the shop, when I realized the kind of step work he was
referencing. And just how useless me and my tools would be to him.
Then I cleaned my room. My mother taught
CCD. And we had bacon and eggs for dinner. Maybe things
haven't changed as much as I thought.
Crap. Do I have a signature tag I have been using to close these things?
