It's that close. In less than 30 days I'll be sitting at home playing video games with my awesome wife instead of sitting here playing video games while listening to my asshole roommate yell at his apparently not awesome wife. I've sent one box of stuff home, I'm packing the second, and the rest of it will be stuffed in duffle bags to be thrown in a shipping container. The strange part is that everything is still so vague that it feels like it's farther away than it should be. It feels like it's still three months away rather than one.

In other awesome news, both Ben Folds and Bayside released new albums this week and they're both rather awesome and make up for past discretions. Life is looking pretty good for a change!

The irony here is that my commander used a section of the lyrics to put on the back of our troop t-shirt but I know that it means something different to him and completely opposite to what it means to me.

I can't hide the fact that I'm a Tool fan but you definitely have to work backwards to see progression. 10,000 Days sucks but if you go backwards through their discography they get a billion times better. When all I owned was Lateralus, Aenima, and Undertow I thought it was the opposite and that Lateralus might have been a hiccup but then I heard Opiate and listened to Undertow again and I realized that I had it backwards. They go from fucking awesome to what the fuck.
