Clipped...
Have you ever wanted to start writing something and then got caught up in the crippling fear that if the first thing you wrote wasn't grammatically perfect or gripping enough then you'd fall into this downward spiral of ridicule and scoffing from complete strangers?
Well..
I just got over it.
I'm Ethan. I just got engaged to the woman of my dreams.

| Look at that beauty! The ring is nifty too... |
I'm also in a fantastic band with her.

| Our backs are SOOO HAWT! |
Oh, And I just got my drivers license suspended... Which is the very reason why this blog exists.

I'm not a horrible driver, I just make horrible decisions while I'm driving. Its a lot like saying "I'm not bad at eating, I'm just bad at keeping the food in my mouth... and not on someone else's face..." In this blog, I shall catalog my day to day experiences and hilarious struggles that I face in this tragic set of circumstances.
So please join me in this journey... This magic carpet ride of the life this twenty two year old gets to experience for a short, yet painful amount of time with his metaphorical wings clipped at such a crucial part of his existence. It'll be fun AND educational!

Day 1.
It was a saturday...
I'm going to be short with this post:
We had a good friend of ours open for us.
His name is Mike.
His band's name is Rosedale.
He's fantastic.
Check him out.

| A tall Canadian. I think I'll have mike down to decorate my Christmas tree this year... |
We couldn't practice.
We got a ride to the venue.
Mike rocked it.
We stood there like a pair of melting popsicles during our set.
In all reality, we did a pretty great job for not being prepared at all.
We also had a great time with all our friends after the show.
Moral of the story:
Always wear clothes that make you look good in awkward situations... And don't get your license taken away!
The End.

| I promise, next post will actually be better than this one... I KNOW! I didn't think it could get any better than this EITHER! |
