Stuff from the past.

Ok, so you are big into stumble, you smoke, you drink, your tree is pretty big but not producing fruit yet, Michelle is pregnant but barely looks it, you want to play poker again with your highschool friends. You are starting work with MTV tomorrow. You are kind of excited, but also slightly worried about what they are going to expect from you. I also think that you are also worried about what you can expect from yourself. You are trying hard to quit a few addictive substances, all making minute if any progress. Cami's wedding is done finally. You just sent her the email. You are going to try and hook up the surround sound. It should work... hopefully.


If you are not dead and not in prison and not a broken man from doing some incredibly stupid thing,
If you are growing and blossiming into a mature compassionate, cool, smart, and talented young adult,
If you still love your family and friends and they still care about you,
... then I guess you can officially say that your doing allright.

have a good day, Ben. And may everything in your life be manageable.
