4 r33l - str3$$D@#$%^&*(!)_!

Toooo much shi~ on the go for this cowboy.!` OR too much personal pressure? F*cK if I know!`

Making rap music, trying to ‘run a label’ - maintaining 7 myspace accounts, recording/mixing the music, learning/doing PHP, sending press kits, paying for promo, playing shows - running a day job, maintaining a clean space, staying fit, planning a bachelor party, eating well, saving money & still being a good friend who you can have a beer with;:-> is burning my dumb a$s out.

Though, now that I’ve put the b!tch down to the internet I am feeling a little better. While I’m on the ‘cry about the good life’ stint;;;;; Some bullets. that suck:

  • the washing machine in my building went up $0.19. It is now impossible to clear the cash off your card completely. smoooth move SmartCard:::>> Card abandonment $crilla on the incline.
  • Jumbo Pizza Winnipeg - sent us vegetarians an all meat pizza then refused to admit a mistake.
  • The little button on my phone has started to work 68% of time => Cool; if it wasn’t essential to almost every function@!#$%^!
  • I’m 26 => talented => and not rich!

These r m@ t3arz. One tidbit of real information 4 u:

One thing that I have noticed about both my sense of humor;; and the DEAFWISH style communique;; is that no one realizes that it is based heavily on the principles of text messaging culture;:> & Neoism?! duh!#

I promise the next post will be more coherent. Thanks for reading.

I had pretty much forgotten about this site, but in the last couple weeks a few people told me they missed reading soooo…..I’ll try it again. In reference to my last post about plotting my life on some little grid, that lasted about 6 days. I talked to the guy that invented it and he told me he didn’t even have the discipline to use his own system. We’ll call that another idea that’s good ‘on paper’. :P

In the last two weeks I recorded and mixed The Ex-Girlfriends second album, Love ‘em and Leave ‘em. They haven’t heard it yet but I think it sounds like garagey girl power. It is the fastest I’ve ever had to mix/master a disc and I would prefer to never do it again.

BANDS (for reference): There is more to a recording than you playing your songs into the microphones. Remember that.

MC/DJ Knife and I are trying to hook up some international street cred by getting rappers for a mixtape. If you know anyone, let me know. None of that backpack shit, our beats are too heavy for multi-syllabic sucka’z.

Plotting Life Progress - A Paper Trail

Wednesday, November 14th, 2007

The ???????? ????? ????????Flash in the Can Roadshow is coming through town this Saturday, are you going?

I was looking through the list of presenters and came across Jason Theodor’s website, there is no box.

Jason, like many of us, is busy and has found it helpful to keep small a reminder list to keep him on track in both his personal and professional life. Enter, his Mundane LifeFocus Cards!

The goal of the cards is to provide a simple framework that will help you keep important tasks and goals at the forefront of your busy day to day life.

You can download fillable PDF templates for a seven day, foldable card set at his website. Then just fill in your reminders, goals and to dos and go from there. The card also has a small space to track how much sleep you got each day (’cuz sleep is important!)

Don’t forget to track your progress.

I’m putting his system to the test to see whether it can work for me. I’ve tried Google calender, setting reminders in my phone and carrying lists with me before but all have fallen by the wayside.

The fact that a single piece of paper is used for seven days puts more emphasis on me actually maintaining the sheet and not losing ??????24 fox ringtones verizon ringtones nextel real music ringtones free cingular ringtones 24 ctu ringtones cell phone ringtones wallpaper cell phone ringtones verizon free cellular phone ringtones cellular phone ringtones samsung polyphonic ringtones free sprint cell phone ringtones 24 tv show ringtones hotlink caller ringtones free samsung ringtones hotlink maxis caller ringtones free motorola razr ringtones free motorola ringtones free t mobile ringtones for cell phone free t mobile ringtones free samsung x427 ringtones it (hopefully).
