true. rollin w/ mamas is so awesome tho. these experiences are all fueling the creative flow. been writing songs on guitar lately & tons of lyrics.

In Macon, Georgia right now- kickin it w/ a new one. She's even crazier than most of the mamas I kick it w/. Hitch hiking is the shit.people down here are so different from the North- laid back & easygoing. cool. Georgia is amazing.
