So, I don't really write here much because there isn't really anything to update on. There have been no new concerts because it's the school year and things are busy as hell, and literally every Sick Puppies emotion Jenn and I have ever had is completely gone. We don't even dream about them, which means they aren't even existing in our subconscious.
I literally haven't even heard, said, or thought the words "Sick Puppies" in months. Until tonight. Jennifer called me and said she had huge news to tell me. I was like oooook...... then she continues to tell me that news just broke that Shim left Sick Puppies. I don't even know if there is a name for the emotion I felt. Like, I was in shock and disbelief. But also giddy, flustered, elated.......it was just a feeling I can't pin down. My heart was like beating so fast and I couldn't talk. If this would have happened 2 years ago I would have broken down on the floor into a ball and wept myself into an uncontrollable tizzy. But tonight, its like, I knew this was coming and I got out before the storm. I am not surprised, but I have to say, If I thought anyone was going to leave the band I thought it would have been Emma or Mark because they were pissed off at Shim. I pegged Shim to be too "tough guy" to quit. This just makes me laugh.
I know its crazy, but I know deep deep down in a depth unknown to anyone that Jenn and I were a small part of the straw that broke the camel's back. Not to say that we stopped being their fans and they were like, "Oh God we can't be a band now!" but just that Shim obviously knew why we left (cuz we made it clear) and he had to have had some sort of an honest moment at some point and been unhappy with the direction of his (or their) musical career. I mean, lets be honest, Connect didn't exactly top the charts. Or even make the charts for that matter. But besides the fact, somewhere along the way, Jenn and I were a minuscule part of this whole thing going down. I'm not even embarrassed or sorry about giving ourselves credit. I know the whole thing affected him. It was written all over his face. And he wouldn't have been so pissed off if it didn't bother him. So to say I'm anything but overjoyed is an understatement. I am so excited to creep forums and see what idiots are about to commit suicide over this shebackle.
I can say that this chapter is officially fucking closed!
