My B-side

"This is one more late night basement song."

Hypothetically… you have one day to live. So you live that day to its fullest. You eat at your favorite restaurant, ordering all of your beloved entrees. Consumption until your gut spills out a good 6 inches over your once flattering Hollister jeans. You spend quality time with all your loved ones by: Rotating and mounting tires with your father. Psychoanalyzing life with a best friend in the driveway. Watching Meet the Focker’s with your mother and her mother. And chatting it up with a fake-drunken ex. You suck in as much MTV as your brain will allow, and you say goodbye to all your favorite pieces of “Rome.” After this glorious day of accomplishment and feat you find a miscalculation…today isn’t your last day at all, tomorrow is. So what do you do with a last-day-to-live when you’ve already checked off everything on your If-I-Were-To-Die-Tomorrow list? You force yourself to remember the one thing you “forgot.”
