Always Been Me

I'm Dave. I'm studying Criminal Justice because I want to be a cop and then on a SWAT team.

Toby Keith is my all-time favorite. Followed by Eric Church, Big & Rich, Luke Bryan, Alan Jackson, Brantley Gilbert, Blake Shelton, George Strait, Brad Paisley, and so many others. My theme song is "A Good Man" by Emerson Drive.

I use this blog for a number of things, mostly for whatever I want. I use it to put up personal stuff, I have a tag for those. I used it to let out all the thoughts in my head about a girl, which has its own tag as well. She owns my heart. She's basically had it since I met her. After all the things I posted about her, she's my girl. And that makes me such a lucky man.

So I haven’t done this in awhile

Things with the girl are great. She’s wonderful, beautiful, and amazing. She makes me happier than I’ve ever been. But we are both at home right now on the Christmas break or between semesters or whatever you want to call it. I don’t like having to be away from her. But it’s not the being away from her that is the worst part for me. She was gone for 3 months over the summer and it really didn’t get to me this much. Over the summer she couldn’t talk to me all the time so that was the difference. At home she can but she doesn’t. When we’re at school she texts me all day. When she’s home that’s not the case. She’s busy. She has her 4 best friends that she sees for like all day, every day. Or so it seems to me anyway. And then they go out and she runs into everyone else she’s ever talked to in her life (that’s how small towns work). So I miss her because I’m at home with nothing to do. And she’s doing things all the time. “Too busy to miss me” is essentially the idea. I shouldn’t complain cause I know she’s having fun and I know she does miss me. She wishes I could be there. But I have been there with her and quite honestly, a lot of the time it’s like I’m not. Her friends talk about all the people that they all know and then they go out and see them all. So she goes off with all them to see this person and that person and I just kinda sit there.

And I just sort of said that to her. But the problem is that when I’m like this, I say it in a way that sounds mean. I hate that I do, but I don’t ever catch myself.

I don’t know what I want her to do. I know she misses me. And I can’t even say “I wish she’d show it more” because last night we were on the phone for like 3 hours and this afternoon for like an hour or 2. I guess I just want to hear from her more often than I do? I don’t want to send her 5 texts over the course of 3 hours (all with actual information, not like hey over and over again) without a response. 

My weekend :)

Finally watched the CMT awards. I had my mom DVR it so I could watch with my girlfriend. I liked the performances. 

Then we went to lunch/dinner with my parents. And then we headed off to our campsite. She helped me with a few things but I started us a fire and got everything set up for her. We listened to some good country radio and I played her Zac Brown’s Uncaged album and Josh Turner’s Punching Bag album too. And we talked. About everything. Let’s just say that what I been meanin’ to tell her, she knows. And she had the reaction I was hoping for :)

The next day we went to the beach of the lake the campground was on and we sat in the sun and talked more. I got see the bikini I been hopin’ to see :) and we both got really sunburned. From there we went to the concert. I didn’t realize we were parked so far away and we missed most of Thomas Rhett. I’m a little upset about that cause I think he’s a phenomenal songwriter and I really hope he continues to find success. But we were there for Brantley Gilbert. He came out and played “My Kinda Party” and the girls next to me said “Why’s he playing Jason Aldean’s song? Jason’s is better.” I wanted to slap them. Then my girl came back and when BG played “Dirt Road Anthem” those same girls were like “Why does he keep playing other people’s songs?” And when the 3rd verse (the not included in Jason’s version) came around, they said my favorite line of the night: “How come he [me] knows all the words?” My girl leaned over and was like “tell me you heard that hahaha”

I love Toby Keith. Like everything about him is just awesome. He pulled some guys out of the audience. They had a picture with him from when he played overseas for the soldiers. And then they sang “Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue.” I also loved that he played “Should’ve Been a Cowboy.” The girls I already mentioned, didn’t know that song. They were there for “Red Solo Cup” and that irritated me. Me and my baby were talkin’ after, we think Toby should do a throwback tour. Play all his old classics. I’d love that. “Country Comes to Town” and “Should’ve Been a Cowboy” are two of my favorite Toby songs. It bothers me that they get kicked out of the set to make room for songs like Red Solo Cup.

It was a fantastic weekend. Good start to me and my girls 5 concert tour.

TONIGHT

I SEE HER TONIGHT

So if I’m not posting these next couple of days, you know why. I’m finally back with my wonderful and amazing girl.

Also, I don’t know how to queue posts…

So something weird is going on with my school’s internet filter

Apparently I can’t even look at my own blog. 

Not that it makes sense for a college to have such a restrictive filter anyway. If someone is gonna watch porn, they probably bought it and/or have it saved to their computer already. Or they can go to some place with free wifi and download it. Just saying.

Someone said I looked like a gymnast the other day as an insult… I think they’re wrong on many levels.

1. I don’t. I’m big. Full formed but not tall.

2. How the hell is that an insult? Have you watched the Olympics?

3. Insulting me is a waste of time anyway, I don’t care about your opinion.

I GET TO SEE MY ANGEL NEXT WEEK

I GET TO SEE MY ANGEL NEXT WEEK

This is what I get when I come home

  • Mom: We should go see a movie you always complain we never do anything with you.
  • looks up movie times
  • Mom: Dark Knight Rises, we could go see that.
  • Me: Have you seen the other Batman movies?
  • Mom: Which ones?
  • Me: The new ones...
  • Mom: You mean since George Clooney was Batman?
  • Me: ...
  • Mom: No. They made new ones?
  • Me: Yes. This one had a shooting at a premier didn't you hear about that?
  • Mom: I didn't know it was a theater. I just heard there was a shooting. What about Ted? That's the one with the teddy bear, right?
  • Me: You don't want to see Ted.
  • Mom: But it's a teddy be-
  • Me: You don't want to see Ted.
  • Me: And I've already seen Spiderman.
  • Mom: You see all the movies! We never get to go!
  • Me: Why haven't you seen Brave with Emily (my niece) yet?
  • Mom: Oh I did see that last week.

This night is forever in my heart. Like Eric said, music ties to memories. This was our first date. This was the night that set into motion me stealing her heart. This was one of the greatest nights of my life. I wish I could’ve been this close. Nope, me and my girlfriend were way up in the back. But the thing about Eric’s shows is you can be way up in back but you feel like you’re standin’ right in front of him. 

And I’ll tell ya this much, for who I was standin’ next to and singin’ every word to I felt like we were the only ones in the room. The most important man alive. And ya know what? Cause of her, I still do.

I miss my darlin’.

5,000th post!

And I don’t have anything special to say…
