So I came back from work and crashed. Hard. Most of you peeps were out at Bento's and I was asleep on the couch. Just call me the invisible man. Monday night I went out to Bernie's to see some friends of mine from NY play a show. After the show I went to an afterparty and didn't make it back to my house till 7:00am. I still went to work for my 10 hour shift. This weekend I'm expected at a big birthday bash here in town. Needless to say, my schedule is booked.
Alot of shit has been going down, just not in quite the same way as what I'm used to. This time last year I was a regular alcoholic, going out and getting prime service at bars where I knew the bartenders. Most weekends I was getting drunk and hanging out in any number of locations having the time of my life. Last year was my introduction to SG. Crazy fucking times indeed. This year its a totally different story. Not having as much random fun as I did last year, but I am getting shit accomplished, though it feels like I'm doing so under the gun. I think I spent quite enough time jacking off and not enough time focused on what I've been talking about doing for years. Now's the time for me to buckle down and do it. If you want an idea of the shit I'm trying to accomplish then I'll give you the current list:
- Pay off my debts, get some $$$ in the bank
- Finish getting the gear I need for my drum setup I've been obsessing over for 4 years
- Start looking for places to move once my lease is up so I can get a recording studio together
- Record an EP with my old roommate and best friend since high school
- Continue formulating material with my current band Protocol None
- I need to finish several art projects including:
-Airbrushing a 78' or 79' Mustang II trunk lid (I previously thought this was an older model trunk lid, but found it different. Either way it has a great shape to that'll make it nice to paint a mural on)
-Finish up a 2'x3' colored pencil poster I started over a year ago
-Finish building a new website to promote all the shite I've been doing
-Finish designing graphics for a video game a friend of mine started programming last year
-Finish two different digital art pieces that have remained incomplete for entirely too long
-Get more prints made of my best digital art
-I also plan on starting a Tarot card deck of my own designs, which I plan on doing one card a week. With that schedule it will take me 78 weeks to complete. Over a year.
-I designed and copyrighted a new Ouija board design which I plan on trying to market a few different ways. Eventually I'd like to make an animated version (online possibly) where all the elements of the board move and react to what you click on and ask (this is entirely possible, but requires alot of work)
-Attempt to break into the NY art scene
-Make my t-shirt designs a reality
-Finish getting my backpiece tattooed (only 1 session left)
I'm trying to do all this while working 60 hours a week and maintaining some sort of sex life. Thank god I'm still getting laid. I've got so much shit that I want to do that I had to sit down and plan this out as to what I'm doing when. Believe me, I don't like to operate on a schedule, but it seems thats the only way I can get all this shit done.
So just to give you all a heads up, I'm still here. I won't be updating nearly so often, but you can always drop me a line.
Hope you all are having some good times.

"Multi-tasker" doesn't seem like the proper word to use for you. 
If I tried to do even half of all of that stuff, my brain would turn to mush. Hope you're doing well.
