Much Needed Update

I can safely say that my views have doubled over the last couple of months. I mean, it's a number and numbers don't lie.
But considering that I've only had one follower (love you my brave friend) and I averaged about two new views a month, I didn't see any real incessant need to write. Not to mention that I've been so busy that I'm on this new Redbull diet that consists of, well...Redbull. Oh and espresso.
But ok...the views and my need to write and this whole new type of space I've never experienced before...and Jay-Z's The Blueprint 3 album...they all make me want to write more. To push myself. To know what I've always known, but experiencing it in a way that makes me do...I get it now. Or at least more than I ever have.
(Ok, just for a side note, I'm watching the rest of that Moog documentary, which if you love music by any means, please watch it...it will blow your mind. But I'm watching it and Stereolab is on and just for the record, their lead singer sounds blonde. Right? Well, she isn't. She's a brunette. But she sounds so much like Beth Gibbons, who is blonde....Shit, Moogs are so crazy.)

Anyway, I'm here and I have this new space. I mean, it's half gorgeous-tiled-carpet and half hardwood, with this small christmas tree that has more style than many people I see walking down the street, with Jesus candles in the faux-fireplace and it's good. Great. And this shit is crazy because the other day I was told I was "very organized." I fucking love it.

But it's like I'm out in Alaska like Emile Hersch/Christopher McCandless, with all the trees and the bears and that bus, finally doing what it is that I've always told myself I needed to do.

But Stevie Nicks says, "what's with all these girls and their myspace and facebooks...mystery is the key." And I love her...so, yeah.


Have you ever noticed how inspirational hip hop is? I mean, gospel is well...GOSPEL. I mean, spirituality just summons every emotion when provoked by arms waving and hands clapping.
But I can just sit in my car, listen to hip hop, rhyme along with Pharrell or Mos Def or Kanye and just believe. It's amazing. They all motivate you to do your best, to never let go, to not stop and pass tha....you know what I'm saying.

My point is, I heard this track today and well..it brought me to this spot, where I am right now. Tangibly communicating, movement to action.

....Gin and tonics never really hurt anyone, right?


I'm so in love with this video/track. I think I might start listening to it in the morning when I wake up. A nice side item to go with my daily Redbull.
