Don't think

That I'm just doing this for show. well. mainly I'm proving to myself here that I can periodically update something - which may be worst. Many think having quit my job I've amassed secret pockets of leisure time... again I have. I confess that the structured life of an 8 to 4, understanding time in its relevance to its wastage at the office, might not be a very bad thing. Now I can easily kill the same 8 hours, unknowingly. and worse, now it's 8 hours of my own time...

Racing!

5 minutes to month end and in 2 other tabs I'm uploading images to beat the record of all records for blog count. aiming for 9...

Of note, I'm outrageously hungry. Whenever I take a moment to think about it, it seems I'm hungry. But someone said time's passing faster than I think, glued to my laptop and all.

also of note, I collected 3 cheques today, and still can't make the rent. I need either a more rewarding hobby or a cheaper place

Sweet 16 - upper middle class style

,,, was it November

oh man. i had this niftly lil blog done, and the internet went down. That was some 6 odd hours ago, golly if I could remember, but, Mozilla loads and it brings with it remnants...

Think it was a heavily veiled attack on November. Brought me Kevin last year and mightily supported my spiral into nothingness this year.

For the last 6 hours, guess all what's happened. Nothing

chi chi chi

Every time I turn around it's another week. As such I've thought myself a valuable lesson this week - to not be afraid of doing nothing. Yes, very anti-what-we've-been-thought but I'm retired, the point is for more down time. If I'm always bustling or feeling guilty about not bustling... I have not opportunity to find... (oh this is good) my chi!

Yes and to prove (to myself) how serious I am, I skipped the Edward Maya concert, took the 300 ticket fund and I'm heading to Moksha Yoga center bright & early Monday morning, or Tuesday; Monday's such a wonderful sleep in day. (Honestly, skipping the concert was easy 'casue we had rooftop Rave the night before with Gareth Emery and. it was. so osssum. could tide over till underground rave on Dec 3rd.)

So that's that. more chi less fuss.

Monday Made

So many awesome things can happen on a Monday, if you'd just not rush to work and let it happen. Got a call from an old Chef associate who wants me. to, possibly, do the cover for his first book. eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek!
Commissioned to do a book cover. I feel Made. Like I can quit my day job. But this is my day job :)

And even if it doesn't come through (lack of funding maybe?) I would still have been 'commissioned to do a book cover'














Other cool stuff's happening (por ejemplo: got propositioned -sex for a Maroon 5 Platinum concert ticket. that's right, Pla-tinn-num.I would. but I'm not a fan. Didn't want to waste the propositioning, sure a concert will come around when I'd need it.) but, won't blog about it, to cheapen this moment, let's have a silent hooray for unemployment

day's work

And one ant-work quote tossed in for messure.
The Big Lebowski 'You're young, you've got your health ... Why do you want to get a job?'

Oh I'll tell

why today's awesome.

Seconds after I found out my dental appointment was 9am and not 1pm as I was mentally gearing up for, I decided to wallow the day away in bed, willing an onset of depression. Then my BB vibrates, it's Kev. He's in the city and will be passing to say hi. It's 8.40ish AM. So naturally I assume, this means free commercial breakfast. He waltz in with arms swinging (luckily I didn't bother getting up to brush else I'd be a tad bummy) "I forgot breakfast."

In and out of sleep we exchange halfhearted back-rubs. Until I remember "I have to deliver Buttons at Arvin's school." I BB Arvin, hoping tomorrow would work, "Nah, bring it today na." His order design is finished and formatted but not printed. I need to buy a printer. Shower, Kev helps make tea, drain it into my carry mug and I'm off to walk to the printers around the block... ok, so none of this is the awesome part.

Today's awesome because:
I finally saw the Rituals Print
Van likes the work I sent for the Ghetto Vybz store
95.1FM called for Button inquires
I'm finally getting my custom made t-shirt from NiQ
I'm having Tuesdays for Dinner
And... something's rejuvenated my excitement about photography. I feel this is key to the feeling.

I thinks

... that this blog is another scathing example of the lack of control i have over my life, and time. how can i not rack up at least 10 posts a month! like a normal person?! How difficult can that be? You know what November, It's ON.
Oh it's on, you just watch and see! There'll be posts, and pictures, and and stuff! you watch!
