The past is the past.

Tip out the skunked beer all over the earth.

Long highway dark in middle of night
Sleep tight
Dark border stations
Eyes cast over moon lit waves
It's a right up ahead
Maybe
Depends on how long you sleep.

Dear 16 year old me:

I just wanted to send a message back to you. Your life will not always be easy. Far from it.

Sometimes, you will second guess yourself. I ask you not to do that. I know that you will find life full of confusion. There are so many ways it can go. You will think through them all.

In the next few years, you will undergo big changes. Change doesn't stop. Don't be afraid of change.

A lot of times, you will just sit in your room and do nothing. Go out. See the world.

Don't be afraid of drinking. It can be your friend. Just don't overdo it.

Get the door for little old ladies. Be nice to old people and listen to their stories.

Never forget who you are. You will sometimes. I am asking you to remember who you are. You will get it when you are me.

Boy, that doesn't all sound so good, huh? Well, things turn out OK. Don't you worry.

You never cut your hair. You sold out at a few jobs, but now you do what you want. You will achieve every single dream that you have. You have big dreams. You will live all of them. I promise you.

Just get through high school. You can make it. Life can be amazing if you let it be amazing.

I love you.

Can you feel it? The idea that dreams can become reality? That you can reach into sleep and make the unconscious mind your reality? The fact is that we are on the edge of something here. That we can take the world and make it be whatever we want.

This statue used to talk to me. I was young. Maybe when we are that little, we are more open to the unexplained. We don't want to explain them or need to. You know, you should be that way. You shouldn't try and understand why the universe does the things that it does.

Cities from the sky, clouds parting to reveal serpentine roads that lead to every place you want to go. Closer to the ground, wheels lower from mechanical bird. You can see buildings as dots, then those dots become cars and maybe people in the cars. They all are going somewhere important. You just want to land.

Once, the horn rode into battle against horrible frost beasts and hook horrors and all manner of beasties.

Now, it sits on a shelf in a strip mall and gets cleaned with Windex.

Not the fate the horn wanted.

I grew up watching a lot of teen movies and I have never been to a party like in one of them.

Like 16 Candles. I have never been to a party like that.

I don't believe in their existence.

Halloween stuff is now 75% off.

If you can still find it.

Sometimes, people stalk that stuff. They stake it out.

If I had a time machine, I'd buy a 75% off costume and go back to a party and have the best costume there.

Statements like that are the reason why I am not allowed to have a time machine. Instead of seeing history or going back to kill Hitler, I would want a cheap Chewbacca costume.

This is Sam's dad.

His name is Sam, too.

The other day, he said to Sam, you are more successful than I ever have been.

The thing is, all Sam's life, he felt he would never live up to the amazing example his father had shown to him or live the life of his father.

But to his dad, Sam had done more. He'd be around the world, made art, comic books and clothes, so much more.

It was an eye opening statement.

Food that talks has always freaked me out.

My grandfather took me to Peace Valley Orchards one day and there was a big barrel full of apples.

There was a sign that said "I'm delicious. Eat me."

Everyone else grabbed a free apple. I sat on the ground and almost cried.

These apples could talk. Who were we to eat them?

Man, I was a weird kid.

When I was young, we fished at Brush Creek. One day, I caught the biggest fish I had ever seen. It looked like a trout, but had teeth. We found out they had stocked these for a fishing contest and we had to give them back. It was a bofin, which is a prehistoric looking fish. They don't taste very good. They're actually quite bitter. I was so happy to catch a prehistoric era scary looking fish. I'm still pretty happy about it.

He sits next to me on the couch.

He knows every problem I have and just listens.

I will always love him. I have for 7 years.

Plastic pigs. Cut 'em up and make some plastic bacon for Barbie. I don't think Barbie eats plastic bacon. She is too unnaturally shaped. Maybe Midge or one of Barbie's friends do. I don't think Brats dolls eat plastic bacon either. Maybe I should just let the plastic pigs live.
