I remember waaaay back when I was a little(r) dude I made my first trade with him. He was a very understanding man as I seem to remember sending him "They Call Me Mister Tibbs" OST covered in a fine opaque film not thinking to clean the record before I mailed it.
Happy Birthday to one of the finest dudes this board has ever known.
Happy birthday, hoLmes!!!
I spent the evening getting burritos & beer with my homegirl Suja, after which we went to see GRINDHOUSE which was one of the most fun movie experiences I've had in a long time. This was aided in no small part by the rabid enthusiasm of the small audience, my companion lovingly gazing at Rose McGowan and declaring "I think I'm a lesbian," and my currently-out-of-town girl (w/ a gf) texting me twice to let me know she was drinking in my honor in Maine.
After the movie, we went to a local bar because Suja had a meeting with her ex who was DJing there. She wasn't looking forward to it, so she wanted my support in case things went badly. But when we walked in the door, I knew this story was just a ruse. My co-DJs Nate & Midnite Cowbwoy, homeboy Gagan and a few other friends I wouldn't normally see there were in the house, so it was immediately clear Suja had organized a surprise birthday get-together for me! Soon TWO vegan chocolate cakes were brought out (thanks Lindsey & Olena!!) and everyone was asking to buy me drinks. After a few beers, some sake, and some dancing, I thanked everyone, took the cakes and Gagan back home, we rapped about life & girls, and got some sleep.
Back to reality: today is cold, gray, and rainy. But thanks to my friends IRL and on Soulstrut, this is one of the best birthdays I've had in years.
Thanks folls!!!!!
