Honestly bro you need to be less mad at soulstrut and more mad at what was written in the first place.
ARRIBA:
1. new ideas, design, marketing, management related
2. new music: incredible records in the shop, some of them make it home to the collectron
3. feeling real good about the situation with my lady
4. good friends, celebrating b-days and realizing you've known dudes for 10+ years
5. good friends who happen to be great business advisors
ABAJO:
1. sinus headaches
2. why are cigarettes so fucking hard to quit?
3. cold weather = slow business
4. dudes trying to steal... I mean, no more big pieces going missing but dudes continually come in all shady. WHY?
5:4 in good's favor
I think you just coined a new term. "Eddie Beatdigger sittin' around MAD AT SOULSTRUT"!
2. foie gras
3. catching random moments
4. mexican coke
5. finished w/ christmas shopping
doo doo
1. winter + driving in snow for work
"Mad at Soulstrut" has more moxy, scathing even.
where'd you learn to talk all slick like that!
Before I get into my fivers, allow me to hatt on Young's spelling:
MIXTAPE[/b]:
1) We are financially comfortable and--while it takes a little getting used to--it sure beats the hell out of my painfully poor days. (Read: Now when someone takes my blood, I pay them to do it.)
2) I heart Serato and my incredibly generous friends who have made the Serato experience so awesome (and affordable).
3) I really enjoy going to the gym, which is kind of a first. I usually get really bored with my workouts and stop going, but I'm on a different path these days and my health is very important to me.
4) I just spent five days in Austin with my brother and his lady and also saw one of my sisters and three of my nephews. I am very lucky to have fam like them.
5) P.Ro and I are working on Slump & Grind II (finally!) this Sunday and it's gonna be proper dos.
OFFICIAL ALBUM[/b]:
1) I just got a cortisone shot in my motherfucking heel for a very large and painful heel spur that is the bane of my existence. My doc also taped up my foot and gave me a night splint to lounge around the crib and sleep in. If this doesn't work, I'll have to wear some big fugly boot for a few weeks? Ugh.
5:1. Good wins again.
1) Finished a new mix, cover's on the way, and a certain very important person contacted me to let me know they dig it.
2) Working on a completely different one right now that's really coming along.
3) Lotsa gigs in December.
4) I've heard more good music via SS uploads, new finds, and hommies with facemelters in the last couple months than probably all of last year.
5) Feelin fantastic about my girl and can't wait to see her.
Fugly:
1)Broke broke broke broke broke broke broke. Is it December yet?
2)Broke
3)Broke
4)Broke
5)Still waiting to get paid from old gigs.
1: New gigs are coming in
2: Season is about to start
3: My girl
4: Beautiful weather
5: Potential business deal
Emperer Palpatine:
1: Budget Rental want $2Gs for THEIR problem (potential courtcase. Fuck them.)
2: I'm broke
3: Rent is due tomorrow
4: Er...
5: That's about it. Not TOO bad really...
1) Thanksgiving break was so awesome. Went down to Palm Springs to visit old friends. One buddy has the cutest 10 month old baby that I finally got to meet. Poker winnings paid for the trip and some merch at the Billabong/Element warehouse store.
2) Skateboarding... I'm back after a 2 year hiatus. Still got mad pop in my kickflips, the rest should be soon to follow. I feel old out there, but I don't feel the pressure to be good anymore. It doesn't matter and I have no need to impress anyone like I used to. 3rd and Army on Saturday if it's dry. My old stomping grounds!
3) Bikram yoga... I'm back on this after a 2 year hiatus as well. Been every day this week and I feel awesome. 6 pack should be soon to follow.
4) European funky psych records. So my shit right now and I've been getting some dope ass pieces courtesy of some local dealers and of course eBay.
5) Christmas break coming up. 2 weeks in sunny Plymouth, MA with the family. Always a nice break from work and good to see everybody I only get to see twice a year.
Boo!
1) Man did I get fat over Thanksgiving. It's amazing how quickly I can put on weight now. Kinda scary cuz I know it's not going to get any easier to stay fit. Hence the added workout routines. Jogging isn't cutting it and I never really liked it anyways.
2) Work, work, work. 4 straight 14+ hour work days this week. Crazy hard, important projects need to be done before Christmas. Waaay stressed out over here. 4 coffee's a day. My only breaks have been yoga and sleep. No no DJing this month.
3) Not being able to get gigs and not getting paid yet for the ones I've done recently. A constant struggle as a nobody DJ. I need a manager but nobody is dumb enough to take me on for the potential earnings of $20 a month.
4) Date with the rain. People in California have such a hard time driving in the rain. Relax people, it's not that big a deal. No need to double my commute time.
5) I haven't been digging in so long other than the lunch time trips to the thrifts. Too busy. Instead I've just been eBaying like mad to satisfy the addiction and the wallet's getting a little thin. I don't know when I'll have a free day either with the mad crazy schedule this month. Maybe when I'm home. There's an okay used record store in Plymouth and one on the Cape (Cod).
As always the yay outweighs the boo. Life is good, just tough.
