Thank-you Straylight Run...
« Thread Started on Apr 26, 2006, 5:52pm »
...and two of your members specifically,

for not being part of that forty-five minute long piece of shit that Warner released on the 25th. I hate to beat a dead horse but thank god you got out of that one when you did. It's like they took an excellent (but worn-out) formula and had to kill it through bland, radio-friendly, and generic imitations of what once was original.

PS: what's sad is that they're probably about to explode as a band now.

i can't promise this is the last pain in the ass thing i'll ever do, seeing as i'm in straylight run, but readd jt_nolan.

I'd like to thank my recent former self for not changing the password from what it was originally. Now, I can make a painless return. Thank you jt_nolan. I am expecting punches in the face from each and every one of you.

Shit, I am totally bummed that the update before registering rule started today. I hope this qualifies.

there is absolutely no point in me doing this because i am basically dead, what a tragedy! jimmy eat world just came on my television and it reminded me of my sister. anyway will someone please please please just murder me already, my life is horrible and whoever does it would be doing the world a favor. i'll sell all my possessions to buy you the best defense lawyer possible even! actually i am sure the satisfaction of ridding me from the earth would be enough of a reward and then you could just use the five dollars my stuff would make to buy some taco bell.

uhhhh i am in no way, shape, or form interested in keeping up with what's going on in my life so i have nothing really to say. instead i will just stay up all night pondering why i am touring with simple plan, i can just see all the fan fics that will pop up. oh the joys of being john nolan. haha why am i even still writing this???? i think it's so i can avoid going to bed, i hate sleeping lately. i think i will start signing on more so i have things to talk about if i ever decide to waste space on your friends pages again, goodnight.

i could write this long, drawn out update about our childhood and how much you mean to me but you already know all that and i'm sure no one else cares so, happy birthday michelle.

why did i waste 3 hours of my life watching the vmas

Mon, 29 Aug 2005 03:33:45 GMT

hi tenn

Sun, 21 Aug 2005 18:03:37 GMT

i kind of forgot about this obviously, maybe one day soon i will start trying to sign on. i don't feel like writing a useful update and i was going to say something about simple plan but michelle already took the liberty of doing so. my life is getting more pathetic by the minute, i wonder what i will do to top this.

for everyone who hates me/my face, i have good news:
1. my paid account runs out today
2. i am quitting the music industry???

tennessee thomas was right, my default is hot considering how ugly i am

Mon, 11 Jul 2005 10:32:35 GMT

obviously i hate updating, otherwise i'd do it every other day/week like all of you people but i lead a very boring life. i mean hello, i am john nolan, what do you expect from me? straylight run is not exactly high powered or well known, who else would agree to have their music on the wb AND the golf channel? that's what i thought.

seeing as how i am basically a nobody lately, i did nothing for the fourth of july other than glue myself to the couch and watch the flashes from the fireworks through the window during commercials. there were plenty of awesome tv specials on the 4th and i am so very thankful i did not miss a single one. hopefully you all caught onto the heavy layer of sarcasm there. i was really bummed out that i didn't get to spend the big day with my sister but i know how huge adam's intolerance for me is so i decided that staying away would be better for everyone but me. i am just that awesome, i sacrifice my own feelings for those of my sister and the person she is married to. anyhow, maybe next year my fourth will be much better, but for now what can i do? absolutely nothing. it doesn't even bother me anyway, i'm over it and i have been for some time now. not that i even know what "it" is. anyway.

i spent the last two and a half hours talking to michelle on the phone because we both know that it is quite dangerous to take the train to see each other at this hour. seeing as how we were both plastered in essence, the conversation was very insightful and deep. it seems i can only be deep and insightful when drunk and/or writing songs. not that my songs are thought provoking, what is there to think about pounding someone on prom night? not a damn thing. none of this even makes any goddamn sense, why are you reading it?? the only important thing is that i got to talk to my sister without a stupid fight over my amazing ability to take everything personally or her special way of saying offensive things without meaning to be offensive. i am very glad she and i are close. i really do not know what things would be like if we didn't talk. i know i always talk about her in my updates but i can't help it. anyway, i've been listening to a lot of nightmare of you lately, why isn't brandon reilly around? which reminds me, hello sherri and stacy dupree and hello kevin devine. kevin, i checked your journal frantically for mention of the show we had together a while ago but i found nothing about it. i see how it is. just kidding, goodnight/good morning.

It's only been three weeks since I updated, I thought it had been longer than that. I haven't been doing much of anything lately so I have nothing to update about obviously. Today I spent four and a half hours in my closet, cleaning it out. Make all the closet jokes you want, I don't care. It was pretty horrific in there but now I can see the floor and I can actually walk in there, as opposed to using my belongings as a makeshift walkway. Honestly, I have no clue how someone like me ended up with so much stuff to make me spend such a large amount of time cleaning such a small space but I guess I never pay attention to how many things accumulate in my apartment over time. I found quite a few childhood toys and it was fun to think about all the things I did when I was a kid. I was pretty stupid and I did dumb things, but what kid didn't? Strangely enough, my first skateboard was in there and I just laughed for five minutes straight as soon as I saw it. It was nice finding things I thought were long gone and reminiscing for a few hours. I don't do that often enough because whenever I am in a bad mood it always cheers me up so today I needed it. But now I'm feeling pretty worn out and my knees are stiff from standing up the majority of the time I was cleaning. Anyways, I also found a picture of michelle and I when I was in my closet cleaning, and although I don't remember exactly what was going on in the picture, it made me smile. Then it reminded me I haven't spent time with her outside of touring and whatnot for a really long time. I started feeling bad after that because of the lovely fight last night. I don't know or care what it was about anymore but we were both being huge jerks and I pretty much just want to forget it ever happened. So maybe I will.

We filmed the episode of Last Call with Carson Daly a few days ago and it was okay. I don't really remember much of what happened because I am too lazy to try and remember it all, and I didn't watch it. But I do remember someone telling me I looked extra gay because of the shirt I was wearing, so much for trying to wear a shirt other than my Smiths shirt. I'm too lazy to even try and find out if there are pictures in existance from the performance, but I'm tired of my icons so I might do that later. Who knows. But right now all I care about is sleep, adios.

i'm really bored again so i am going to update since there is nothing better to do. and because i haven't updated about my show on thursday so i am doing that. it was pretty eventful i guess, the rest of my band and jesse and brian came out to support me i guess, and brandon reilly was there because he played too. it was a lot of fun and i played maracas during part of kevin's set. as for my set, i mostly played slr songs which is pointless but whatever i guess, the show was fun and it was nice to have my friends there supporting me and laughing at me when i didn't even remember the words to my own songs. jesse taped almost the whole show except for a short part when he ran on stage to play guitar with kevin. since i didn't have anything to play except slr songs i asked for suggestions and someone told me to play the tension and the terror and i mumbled something about hating that song, thank god laura didn't hear me otherwise i would've had to suffer through an hour long praise chorus about jake fucking wallace. anyways...shaun kept mouthing off and mentioning our inside jokes and it was getting kind of annoying but i played it off and acted like it wasn't bothering me. he told me to play some old taking back sunday song, i think it was cute with out the e but i don't remember for sure, and i started to play it and stopped. i'm so sly. not much else happened that i remember. i think we all went out drinking or something but to tell the truth i just can't recall anything that happened after the show.

anyways, tennessee thomas bought me a paid account last night and i spent a few hours searching for pictures of me to icon because i only had twelve for some reason. anyways now i'm up to forty and i just found a few on photobucket from thursday that i'm going to icon and upload when i'm done here. which will be soon because i'm running out of things to say. i wish i had enough things to write mile long updates about but i'm really boring so i can't. not to mention i haven't seen much of anyone for a while. i should do something about that. maybe later.

this commercial just came on where some guy and his friends are playing video games and the guy jumps up and starts singing and then his friends gets up and they start doing some boy band type dance. i don't know it's really funny and i didn't really know how else to start this update so there we go. so we're off tour finally but we have a few shows here and there. on the 19th i have a solo show because i'm starting to get a big ego like my good pal jesse. kevin devine will be playing too so it'll be fun.

i don't have very much to write about, all i do is sit around and watch maury every morning and then switch to the disney channel and hope for something decent to be on. if i'm not glued to the couch, i'm on my computer playing stupid yahoo games and trying to figure out what all the abbreviations those freaks use when they talk to each other. speaking of that, i found out last night that i am a little too good at figuring out what drunk people are saying when they type things. i got an im earlier asking how the hell i understood a word of what was said because the person saying it didn't even understand. what can i say? i have a gift. um okay i'm out of things to say but maybe if more people talked to me i would have something to say ;) my aim is in my userinfo if anyone cares, peace out girl scout.

i do not want a repeat of the last time so i am hereby reserving the right to choose the next john. i have six weeks to do so and you have six weeks to impress me, starting now.

inquire within.

sigh. carrabba. why oh why.

Sun, 27 Feb 2005 00:34:42 GMT

to tell you the truth, parker posey, i thought it was well over six. that is a good example of the time that has actually gone by and what it feels like.

i just had a birthday, and the best gift i could ever get is a cock ring, compliments of my sister. you might be thinking "what the fuck is john's sister doing buying something of that nature," but the whole basis of our friendship is now grossing each other out. i don't know if this takes the cake or not, but it comes damn close.

againstmichelle: shutup and get in the closet
straylightrun jn: okay don't make me wait too long
againstmichelle: bring the cock ring
straylightrun jn: LMAO
straylightrun jn: and the soul
againstmichelle: LMAO IF ONLY CHRIS CARRABBA KNEW WHAT WE WERE DOING TO HIS SOUL

tomorrow, i am switching out all of my icons for 50x50 ones with borders and heavy contrast, putting arrows and parenthesis around subject lines, and fixing up my layout with fancy fonts and little pictures of my friends on the side. then i will prepare an example journal and an application to get into must_be_pop.

we're going to go through several different personalities of everyone and see several underscores in usernames seeing as how every one will be taken. we're going to see a lot of obnoxious one-liners jut to ensure journals don't expire. i probably will fuck up and lose my spot in four weeks. please, do not turn this into greatestjournal. you could all do without a new john nolan in welcome_wagon every four weeks. i do have an interest in my journal but i am not the kind of person that can allow too many thoughtless updates to make up my entire journal and i'd rather have leeway to make a substantial update when it's ready to come, whether that be in four days or four weeks.

lmao

Mon, 13 Dec 2004 23:09:07 GMT

i don't know where we heard about that lk/hoobastank show but we were definitely not there!

i cannot wait for the new eisley album :)

there should be more to this so i don't feel so terrible about taking up space, but i feel too preoccupied and nothing is out of the ordinary. nothing is out of the ordinary, and everything is alright. is everything alright?

Fri, 19 Nov 2004 02:28:03 GMT

we're opening for hoobastank and letter kills on december 3rd? michelle and shaun, it is imparative that we pay attention to our tour for a date besides the one in rhode island.

Sun, 07 Nov 2004 16:58:22 GMT

jesse has changed my icons once again, but i think they're in constant rotation now. i don't see the point in opening a program to crop out a square of my face but if someone else wants to, i am not going to complain. i wonder how many people know my password, though. this update is going to be very rushed and possibly boring because i have until noon

we're going to learn how to fix chicken fingers the correct way, with a margin of error large enough to not get frustrated over failure, since taco bell is nearby. my things are being relocated yet again to his place, now ours again. mozzie's position in the house is being threatened by the amount of space we'll have, but i doubt it will be too suffocating, especially when it comes to a dog named mozzie. pinchy might be another story. i don't think many people understand the bond between man and lobster.

straylight run will be ignoring the fact that we ignore our tour just for one date, and that's in rhode island. we're desperately awaiting reviews from that show, since it's already being talked about. it's definitely no mistake and it's definitely not a show that didn't have some thought put into it. we'll see how it goes; it'll be a surprise even to us.

michelle and i finally got to talk recently, after i realized i had failed to make time to speak with her. she told me to update today and i have five minutes to do it since the deadline is noon. it's a slow process. anyway, we cleared a few subjects and talked about lyrics to a certain band's songs, and i even found myself surprised since i had known not to analyze them without wanting to torture myself (they're very good). it's best not to continue talking about that subject. michelle is happy and healthy, all jokes aside, and really that's all that matters.

the most important thing of all. parker's birthday is tomorrow! i hope we are invited to the party, because we have lived so close for so long and we've never gotten to really spend time together! so, happy birthday parker. that was really the most important thing, so have a nice day everyone.
