#24 - We Own the Night
Forget my jealousy
You swallowed the demons on your own
There's nothing left for me
I keep thinking back to when you said
"We own the night"
Stomp that feeling, your puke is a mutant
Can't think of who did this, well, I grew stupid
Say accidents happen, it's admirable acting
Flicking the back of your ear with my finger
Separate is the way though, no, second is the place though
Just fake it through the day and the night is your God
See you in battle, your boat is my paddle
Your life is my business, your plaque on my wall
Let your hair down, have one more round, drink 'til you believe it
Sloppy kisses, dirty wishes, baby, this is living
Roller-coaster, up and down in random motion
Oh, come in closer, ditch your problems, better days are coming
Get up off the wall, come on, get down, get down
Give into the moment and live now, live now
Get up off the wall, come on, get down, get down
Give into the moment, feel it now
I have the heart of a coward
Here in my arms is exactly where I want you
We own the night
Stomp that feeling, your puke is a mutant
Can't think of who did this, well, I grew stupid
Say accidents happen, it's admirable acting
Flicking the back of your ear with my finger
Separate is the way though, no, second is the place though
Just fake it through the day and the night is your God
See you in battle, your boat is my paddle
Your life is my business, your plaque on my wall
You'll forget I'm wrong
Call your phone and open up my fate
'Cause I know you're so connected
I need poison, mitigate my pain
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Feel my toes go golden up in flames
Give me false hope in my veins
Tranquilize and modify my brain
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Where did I go wrong?
There's nothing I can do, the thrill is gone (wake up, you're dead, you're gonna go)
So I play these nervous songs
Pretend that I'm not barely hanging on (do it again, do it again, do it again now)
And medicate, medicate, medicate me all night long
Medicate, medicate, medicate me all night long (do it again, do it again, do it again now)
I run quickly out of air
By the way, I hate your celebration
I run quickly out of air
By the way, I hate our aging faces
X-ray of Tabitha in my heart ❤️
Please note the purrfection and the eyes and the cuteness. Very important you should know, I did not tell her to get on my bed… Butttt soooo cuteeeeee 🥹❤️❤️❤️
Mcdouble confused here
I’m scared to ask for a salad here; there is a real fear of what this “wild utensil” might be. As curious as I might be, I do have to take my well-being into account. Must not risk needless ventures before GTA6; we’re almost there!
But why is it pink?
I must not lie; that look people give when I fold an entire bike in front of their eyes will never get old. Thank you Andrew Ritchie, for one of the most practical bikes ever made- well, minus the price tag. Also, coconut water! Stay hydrated my people; it is hot!
The doctor said I’m fine
After so many years, we encountered each other again. Nothing serious, just told me to go home and draw some blood. Not sure what a red crayon on paper will do to improve my health, but I guess that's why I’m not the doctor. I did ask how much time I have left; he said, anywhere between 1 day and 70 years… any decade now… I think. Help?
Physical games/media!
Dude, this really sucks; the PS6 will no longer have physical games. Doesn’t sound like a big deal until you realize that once that happens, Sony decides the price, and it's not like I can rent the game physically. Super bummer. Time to begin my Switch collection. Unfortunate times.
Spider-Man: Brand New Day
Its definately worth a watch. I thought the 2+ hour watch time was going to be too much, but it all felt well put together and really exciting. They really work into the events from the last movie but also added some very interesting characters that haven’t been seen yet (no spoilers lol). Would recommend a watch. Would recommend a someone’s hand lol.
PSA: Isn’t air free?
Does your car tire need air? Turns out most places (not every place, as I have now learned) will flip the switch at the air pump to give you free air for your tires. Some places like Wawa and Costco will just have it there for you. While at other places, you might need to go inside and ask the clerk to turn it on for you. It doesn't hurt to ask, but also it maybe a good idea to keep a cheap tire inflator in your car for times like this. You have options! But also, free options lol
Photo taken by the fridge/freezer?
Felt like a long time coming, but also felt so short. Wish we could have all spent more time together. Even though the trip is over, I think we all needed this- this feeling of finally knowing what it’s like to have your friends all together and just hanging out in person. I am the happy 😊
"A Flight to Remember"
Our day started with Jake making breakfast (thank you, Jake). Then off we went to the Florida Mall, when suddenly Yake recommended a nearby comic shop with a speakeasy in the back. Turns out he wasn’t lying lol. Soon after, we followed our tradition of Buffalo Wild Wings for our Orlando trip. After Anthony got charged twice (lol), we hit up a bowling spot only to discover I can bowl? I did not see that coming. By now it was getting late, so we met up with Amanda and the gang for some late-night card games. Honestly, what a great freakin day!
#23 - The stakes were raised
Where am I gonna land
In the palm of someone's hand
I should have known that the good part was over
That you would leave at the end of the summer
But the stakes were raised
And so I looked the other way
The sky turned red
The world came true
In the way I wanted you
I should have guessed that the moment was passing
I didn't catch all the signs that were flashing
Cause the stakes were raised
And so I looked the other way
All of my hoping just turned into lying
Kidding myself without even trying
I should have noticed the whole thing was dying
But the stakes were raised
And so I looked the other way
The stakes were raised
And so I looked the other way
Tripped and fell into Orlando
It’s been a long time coming but honestly I couldn’t be more excited. Aly comes to American (but also Jerry-san and Ant time), who would have thought after all this time it actually happened?! The drive north, the room, the food, the places, the games. It’s going to be so much fun.
Is there food? I’m down! 😝
When your job appreciates you with food? Good food at that? I’m bout to busssss lol.
I am the happy. Thank you overlords, for thy sweet tender rewards, thank youuu 😭
Pinecrest bakery FTW!
Look, I’ve worked at Starbucks for years. I like it, but I will say that nothing beats freakin Pinecrest Bakery! That place slaps, in the best way possible. It’s almost like those older Cuban ladies have magic in their little tiny hands that infuses magical charms into the coffee to make it oh so good.
PS. I love Cuban coffee <3
Crazy to think this was 10 years ago lol
This year my family and I all went to Universal Studios. I don't care for rides, so I took a young Anthony with me to the arcade in the park to pass the time as we played and won tickets. Little did we know we had stumbled across a faulty game, so when we asked the employee to help us after it took our credit, we threw a bouncing ball and… it was raining tickets lol. To be honest, I don't even remember what we spent the tickets on, but the insanity of it just pouring tickets was a reward enough in itself lol. Good times.
