I have been busier than ever since I went back to work, which I guess is good. I've been spending very little time in front of the computer and much more out socializing with friends, which is also good, but it's been hard on the wallet. It's time to sell more records.
i also dj out and about in pdx this past year since moving here/ write about music for a living/ kind of knew fahey... weird. anyway, just saying hey -- hope you are swell.
My father retired a couple of years ago, even though hes only 57 years young. He wasnt very happy with changes being made to the public employees retirement fund, so he got out while he still could. Now he does odd jobs and maintenance work to supplement his retirement income. He invited me to join him on an overnight trip to the coast this week,... Read More
are you still planning on coming up next weekend?
i was wondering if you wanted to dj for a bit on saturday with me at the bier market. the only thing is that i use cdj 100s there, since it`s more convenient and i don`t trust those drunk bitches around my equipment.
i know, i make it sound so fun.
well i`m glad you made it back in time for the american version of canada day .
sorry you didn`t have the best time up here, that recordland guy is one crazy bitch.
i think i might be coming down around the 20th for a wedding, so maybe we could go record shopping while i`m there with my limited funds .
Ok, I'm just updating because my last entry was time sensitive and no longer makes any sense.
I'm happy because I just finished school. No more classes, no more books, no more teacher's dirty looks and all that. Now that I've earned my associate's degree I'm free to do all the things I've always wanted to do but was unable to because of my lack... Read More
Aw.... I feel like I disapointed now. It's so odd... I've gotten more comments about your painting than any other piece I've done. I guess people really like the subject matter.

that sounds like a good night you have planned.
normally that would be something i would look forward to doing, but the past little while i`ve been depressed and feeling kind of off. i think it`s mostly because i`ve been pretty sick the last couple of weeks and i haven`t been able to do too much. it`s really been a drain on my physical and mental state.
so right now i`m just having ups and downs, but i think i`ll be back to normal again soon.
yeah, it always helps to realize that you`re a small insignificant speck in a vast world... although that actually scares some people, it helps me to get outside of my own head and quit worrying about stupid shit.... for at least a little while .
my tattoo is itchy, soon i go in for session number three. hopefully my final session on this arm.
I doubt it. I was planning on getting all my work done tonight so I could go tomorrow. I'm working my ass off right now to try and get everything done. We'll see.
if saturday nights didn`t pay so much, i would be done with them too. i`ve considered taking on a dj partner just to have someone there with me, and then getting a quieter lounge night for myself some other night of the week. saturdays make me pretty much useless on sundays.
yeah that`s the only problem with having a partner, you make half the amount you would make by yourself, but sometimes it`s worth it since it`s so much better with someone else.
i did a night with my friend at this really nice lounge for just over a year. it was great because i had a couple of hours to sit down and have a few drinks with people, and it was really laid back.they shut it down about 4 months ago, i miss it
I've come to the realization that I can't have (most likely ever) the type of relationship I want with someone. For a long time I've hidden from myself the fact that I've craved approval from this person more than anyone else. At the same time, this person has made it abundantly clear that I'll never achieve the level of approval I'm after.... Read More
I think you know what you need to do. It's hard not to be passive aggressive about it though as you say, I have twice in my life had to cut of relationships with people who were charming, funny, intelligent and a whole lot of fun to be with in the moment because they were also were also living in their own little universe and unable to give without being told to give.
Before you make any drastic decisions, I would talk to this person and say that you adore them but you feel like the thought of you never crosses their mind. They mean the world to you but it's hard to give so much of one's self and get very little in return. It's hurting you.
I hope it goes well.
P.S. I'm off from my regular day job now for about a month. So I am here if you would like some art.
What if you had 6 months to live? We've all heard that question before (whether it's 1 month, 6 months, a year, whatever). I've never been able to come up with a good answer. Sometimes I think I would want to surround myself with friends and family to enjoy the company of those who care about me. Other time I feel like I would want... Read More
as for your dying question.... i would like to go far away, probably travel and see as much as i could. i think you can be as selfish as you want to when you`re dying. it`s nice to be able to set people at ease and let them know how you`re dealing with it, but beyond that i don`t feel like it`s your obligation to take care of them.
and yes i do have more mixes i could share with you. where should i send them?.. also i should really sart on a new one for the website before they get mad at me again. i`m always late with that shit .
nowhere right now. i used to play the Lotus, Bar 71, The Quest, The down under and The Venue. I used to own a record store in Seattle, played mostly at house partys and various local weekly nights.
i'm sure theremay be something up my alley...
am i reading this right?
sell records?
i don`t understand this concept....
