Seems Mog ate my last post. Strange. That makes two posts that have mysteriously disappeared.
This track popped up on my MP3 Player yesterday morning and I thought it would make a great track for a Happy New Year post... so here we are.
Even though the situation described in the lyrics paint a pretty bleak picture, there's still a glimmer of hope shimmering under the surface (or maybe that's just the optimist in me).
I hope everyone had a great holiday and a happy 2009 to all!

mog the magician.
nice tune, sounds like a reckless abandon drinking song. shoulda loaded this one when the year passed...cool!
Scott - Indeed. When I first heard this track the mental image I got was a bunch of people held up in a bar, singing, drinking, and carrying on oblivious as the flood waters outside seeps in and creeps up their bar stools.
DEMO -> unfortunately, I never ate mushrooms and danced around my house on the Eve of a new yaer -> seriously unfortunate. Though I have shroomed and danced in the great outdoors ->
Happy New Year to you...and approaching my 5 years clean mark, I say "Cheers Mate" (and I hold up my green glass bottle filled with chilled Deer Park water-cooler water and clank it on my computer screen without breaking it) and take a swig of my water ->
Here's to another great year my friend -> see if we can make it to 2010, eh?
Ty - Congrats on your (approaching) 5 years. I have yet to kick a vice for longer than 2 years, so koodos! I raise my thermos mug of caffeinated black sludge and give you a clank back. Here's to seeing the end of 2009 with little to no loss of limbs.
DEMO -> yup, some close calls this year, but no permanent damage...I think ->
I did just recently have a horrible bout with chest/nose/body congestion, you know, coughing up spakling putty that's brown -> so I tripped on Walmart's version of Nyquil for 4 nights -> I had some twisted dreams, GOD DANGIT ANYWAY -> though I slept like the dead -> I guess I'm still sober, right? what's a shot of medicated 5 proof?
Caffiene -> ahh, rehabbers crack -> luckily it's not a life controlling problem for me, 1-2 styrofoam cups at work per day -> though I did once drink 14 cups in 6 hours and had worse withdrawal then when I dry-detoxed off heroin ->
