RANDOM THOUGHTS THANKS ANDREW ok this is my second one of these ill use punctuation and paragraphs and all that. basically with a half ass 12 th grade education ive conquered most of central texas, well at least a 10 by 10 bedroom. they say that your past affects your future yeah thas true it do, but does everty thing you do affect it i mean i pick my nose alot WAYYY more then i should yeah its gross i know and hey dont worry ladies if i ever go out with ya i am a polite gentleman. but does that have any profound affect on my future? the answer is yes it all happened about spring 1994 yeah you all know what we were doin then 8 th grade promotion. so anyways i had no courage with women or at that time girls. well there was this one i liked alot and honestly i think she liked me but yeah ok so like i was talking to her alot and telling some stoopid ass jokes like normal and i totally picked my nose just outta habbit yeah i was a weird ass kid she became totally disgusted and ive never talked to her again ever hahahah i mean im not saying her and i woulda ended up together but it could have quite possibly changed my social standing with other girls and the quote un quote popular girls guys group ya know, i mean i toally coulda been a popular snob in school not saying like i hate em but its one of those things you do cuz u dont know better your young and dumb. any kid put in them shoes looking to fit in would prolly do anything to fit in i mean we all do that to a certin extent now right? needless to say she told her friends and all that i did that because alotta teasings and all followed im not bitter at all its all part of being a kid but like most things in junior high it blew over in 2 weeks and everything was back to normal.
either way high school was only a few months away and social infastuctures changed drastically in those 3 short months and since the internet was in its infancy and the only computer was a Mac box thingy so i never got the email i guess or an IM warning me of the pending natural disasters that would accompany the next 4 years of my life they say they come in threes but so far every thing for me comes in fours maybe im just a little more unlucky then most. 4 yrs high school a marriage of well hell im still married for a bit longer but i only seen her for about 4 years of it. and the army 4 yrs here and i have 4 enormous cavities. so well yeah either way i was blasted into the best group of friends i could ever have i have written a few songs about all our highschool antics when i was sitting in bagdad till 3 or 4 am fighting people off every day at the gates there was a lotta down time. one starts off *lets hop in the car and go for a ride we got 5 whole dollars and youth on our side * it pretty much outlines a trip to old CUB foods to rob the bulk bins cuz we were to broke to buy food so we just went there to eat samples. yeah well we had money but till johnny worked at the BP we had to buy beer!
every on knows that a high schooler loves beer. lots of it the bigger the can or bottle the better i mean honestly whats better than drinking a 12 oz coors light when yer 17? drinking 2, 40 oz old english's in a tupperware bowl with a straw mixed in with candy smarties and some ABC gum yeah i had a few when i made it i guess .. its a wounded soldier i think i dont remember but i invented it one day b4 workand i was 18 Andrew. ;) lol yeah it is surprisingly delicios im gonna open a microbrew some day...well
as it seems one thing leads to another and one day to the next and 1998 turned in to 99 00 01 02 03 04 05 and now the aught six year in 26 short years ive come to realize that everything i once knew or believed is not what i know or believe now. all i know now is one time mr burke pulled me to the side and said wetzel, your the smartest student ive ever had and im glad you were in my class for 2 years. all i can think now is that america is in trouble or he was high on crack. but that is one scentence that i will never forget since most of my adolescent life ive been told i was dumb worthless and just plain lazy and yeah maybe thas cuz im so smart i know i can get away with doing things half ass cuz other folks do em for me or dont ask me to do anything. screw you dad.
well we all know alcohol and terrorist attacks make people join the army as is proof that in sept 01 the army actually turned away people go figure huh since now they are extending and calling back inactive reservists to go fight a war that should be fought by vietnam standards instead of this political dont shoot till you get shot at and you have a clear shot and noone innocent will be harmed fuck it the only good iraqi is a dead one except this one dude i knew named Ra-Faat he was a mechanic in the ING iraq natl gaurd and one crazy drunk. he would fit right in with the whole sherwood mentality, : hate your family and town and be pissed cuz you were trapped cuz u spent 94-98 drinking and partying instead of trying to go to a college of some sort. then join the military thinking it will get you outta there and then it does and your pissed cuz it was all you knew and you miss it deeply
yeah so 40 oz i havent drank one of them in years especially good old hamms 1.29 40oz cant beat that bear whizz . sounds great i miss that crappy beer and being home so much that i would give everything i own which isnt much anymore but all i have to be home free and drinking heavily to an early grave that i started traveling to soon after i was born. ive had many friends in my life and they say in life if u can count your true friends on one hand you are a very lucky person, in my case i must be blessed in an extemely generous way i have approximatly 45-50 people that i know are life long friends and will never change no matter what it is like i have 2 different lives though ive got childhood friends and my army buddies and those 45 or so folks, special ones, all know who they are, we all have one thing in common i think if nothing else its the fact that life is one big crap shoot how you hold the dice and how hard you throw affects what the outcome is and changes the future. forever
