Been around a bunch, finished a feature (message me if you're interested), writing a novel that I'm excited about (beginning stages, but all the ideas are basically in place, really fun so far), still making videos here and there for nice people who make me SOCKS - witness, thank you, Karen!!!
Yes, so. Most of you owe me some more love, looks like, no? Anyway. Other than that, been relaxin' my achin' bones, going to doctors, doing my best with the nutrition, and yoga, and stretching, so we'll see what happens...I dunno, doctors haven't been too great before, but I like the new one.
Toledo this weekend coming up, then my old friends a bit east of here for a week. Hopefully something good happens, so do your best to make it good if you're reading this, and yeah...you know what to do, Mary Lou. It's been too long. HELP!
My friends on YouTube have been making some supremely humourous additions to the canon of awesomeness that I've favourited. SCTV clips keep disappearing, and I have the DVD's but it totally bums me out.
So, I'm living, still making things, music, mixes, DJing, writing, videos, just not being so social cause of back issues. KEEPING YOU UP TO DATE!
GREAT question. Here's how they work (I just write these next lines, and done):
Slow Hand Motëm are the best band in Canada. Lunchmeat are the most dangerous and most legendary band today in Toronto. Patterns (PTTRNS) are the best band in Germany. The Sweet Divines are the best new soul group.
The last post didn't work at all, but people are dancing.
What do I do? Sometimes I have things to say...actually, I have a lot to say, but I gotta figure out how to do all that.
FRESH KNOWS BOOGIE
COUPLES ARE FUN, Tricia and Tony:
So, someone else mentioned that they want to take over on January 1st, 2009. I said start sooner unless you guys can figure out a way to get me some money. Debt rises and I need some new equipment so I can make the feature I've always wanted, so its time to get to business. (I doubt I can work full time AND make an interesting video after the year is up)
I WILL SELL YOU ANYTHING THAT I OWN. I'm poor, I want out of debt. That's probably not going to work though.
Hmm...OK OK OK...here's what I've been thinking about lately.
There's 500 people or so that watch my daily dance video. If everyone gives me 20 dollars and tells me what they want with it, I could have $10,000. So, I realize that its just not feasible for my pals out there who are robbing wi-fi along with me.
So here's my idea:
I need 100 people to give me 100 dollars each.
I will use that 10 grand to buy the biggest, most expensive crane shot of all time.
Never mind the jumble jabber, I just really felt like typing and Anton (my feline friend) is looking really cute.
I can't help but feel like I've failed myself. That is a dramatic sentence...wow, it feels good to be able to write again. All I needed was booze. HAR HAR...but enough about that, let's move on. I failed myself. My mission has failed. I am on a mission. The mission was this:
I was on a mission to get you motherfathers onto the motherfathering dance floor.
Since no one has taken up arms and done what I've done, I'm afraid that I will have to commit murder.
REALLY afraid.

I just wanted to thank everyone for supporting my year long dance project which is now halfway complete. Things are picking up, getting crazy responses that I never thought I'd get. Lots of people asking for advice and help on a wide variety of issues, and I'll be of service if I can. It seems that people are getting back into DIY, I'm seeing a positive resurgence all around. Maybe the tool of this here internet is just getting better at shoving that sort of thing in my face.
HOWEVER...I'm very uncomfortable with text messages and phone calls to my cell phone which I just got two months ago(!). I have about a dozen numbers in there because in real life, no one calls me. Now that I have this new life where I'm visible, people are calling me, and even though it's ladies, I'm not comfortable with the creepy level of creepdom that filters through the satellite feed from anonymous callers.
More bad stuff...the back pain that I've been dealing with all of my life that magically disappeared about a year ago (the Eureeka: "I Can Dance!" moment time) is creeping back in. Maybe it'll be short lived, I don't know. The week my neck finally feels good, and my back is giving me shit again. This makes me nervous as far as jobs go once school is over. Anyway, feeling nervous, neurotic, and agitated most of the time because of this. I'm trying not to let it get me down, and writing about it is helping me. I'll just win the lottery anyway.
I also get a lot of requests to dance to songs by bands I haven't heard of. This is like sending your demo tape to Sub Pop. I equate it with that, however arrogant that sounds. I represent MY FRIENDS. They know who they are...or maybe not, I keep a lot to myself. Well, I suppose this entry changes that.
I have been spending most of my time at home lately, which sort of bursts that bubbly image of me riding around on unicorns and shooting dinosaurs down with my new death ray. Growing debts persist and make me feel like I'm not really worthy of having fun, but I want to have fun! I keep trying. Anyway, I'm at a good spot in my mind where I'm not interested in crazy awesome mind blowing stimulus. Drinking tea and listening to good music with my cat has been quite enjoyable. I'm quite happy, but would be happier with the knowledge of everything working out over the next few months. Neurosis!
