Busy

Things have been getting busy for me. I just started a new day job and I've been getting more dj gigs. On top of all that, I still have to execute my domestic duties as a single mom.

So, I decided to enlist some help. He's a bit lazy but I'm hoping that after his nap, he'll be a bit more productive...

Technical Issues

I was at STRIP last night and I was killing it... until my computer started acting up. The music was only off for about 15 seconds but I didn't like being interrupted in the middle of my groove.

So anyway, today I consulted a few friends about what could have gone wrong and what I need to do to fix the issue. I still haven't figured it out yet... maybe my in-house tech expert can weigh in on the problem...

I'll let you know what he says after his nap...

flyer thoughts

I was leaving one of my gigs this weekend and took a few moments to glance at several flyers that were shoved into my car crevasses. I frowned with disgust at the scantily clad women that adorned almost every flyer and wondered, does this really work?

Am I supposed to say to myself, "oh...this nekked chick has some huge tigObiddies... well, that's sufficient evidence that this party is gonna be ON and POPPIN..."
