My Pink Shoelace

In the neighborhood where my friend Josh grew up he said drugs, weeds and whatever you call it is rampant … even before he started high school he already smoked by the time he finished high school he was what people call a drug addict. From syrups, marijuanas and cocaine … you name it he’s tried it … the sad thing about it is he knew what’s wrong with him but he can’t seem to stop. No, in his own words, he doesn’t have the strength to stop … he cannot deny the strong craving … so day in day out he did everything he can … stealing … robbery … everything just so he can buy whatever he needs to buy to satisfy his craving. He has grown thin, was never able to enroll for college, sunken eyes and cheeks. No longer the cute guy next door, but all that changed after 4 years of misery … at the age of 23 he was admitted for addiction treatment somewhere in Malibu. The location, our support, he’s will to overcome it … made the treatment smooth sailing. Now we have a totally reformed Josh, healthier than he was 4 years ago, happier than he ever was. He’s gone back to painting and arts … and to writing too, the staff at the local rehabilitation center has been very understanding and kind … making the place an easy environment for him. Can’t wait to see him when he’s treatment’s done … after all the pain he has gone through its high time for him to be with us … the people who cared and loved him the most.Can’t wait for you to come home bro …

Don’t feel like sleeping, first off my finals for my masteral class is this Saturday and am agitated with all the deadlines I have to meet. I feel guilty everytime I see David knowing I haven’t watched the DVD he has lent me for a band we both like and I haven’t burned the cd he asked for. *sigh* In between my routinary depressed stage characterized by non-stop crying and trying to meet my deadlines for projects online to learning Expression Web and working on my papers due this Saturday I barely have room for anything else and that by the way includes sleeping.

So now am actually switching from one window to another, working on my projects online to researching for a paper due this Saturday to finishing the installation of Dreamweaver and Fireworks to this notebook to writing this post to bloghopping and finally to working on Creeepy One’s request.

His request for me to download music videos and then burn them to a dvd copy for the Cute One made me smile. The kid in him came out when he made the request, good thing he told me of his target date for giving this to the Cute One otherwise I would have procrastinated some more and work on it at a later date, so here I am scouring the net for these videos.

The thought was just so sweet and I know she’d appreciate it, hell I would … nyahahahaha … not that I’d want one, heck I’ve basically downloaded almost all of the music videos I like to my player and to my notebook but its the thought … the effort exerted by that person to get to know you and compile the songs that make you smile is what made the whole thing so sweet and amazing.

Which reminds me I need to do the same thing for Mitchy and Aisah … hehehe … for those songs we sang on videoke when we went out last Valentines Day … grrr …. the result of procrastinating!!!
