About Me

My name is Garrett Bailey. I write a lot. Lots of poems, some of which I try to throw guitar parts to. Those become songs, which you see here. I have come to own a four track recorder that I can hook up to my computer, so some of the stuff on here sucks just a bit less than it used to. I'm a straight white male but I'm not narrow minded.www.thehungersite.com Go there and click the button once whenever you get the chance. It's free, and it'll only take maybe five seconds. Then they give some food to starving kids. Nobody loses.

I love you is over and underused. I'm going to do it right.

From now on I'm going to tell all my close friends that I love them at the end of our phone conversations. I realized that I do this with some people, but not others. And want to make it a more common...
