Wasting time with Jet

Wow.

It first began with Vincent Hanna getting Neil McCulley in the airfield at the end of "HEAT"

The very first time I heard "God moving on the face of the Waters"...

I thought that was the best song ever performed.

Then I finally backtracked and discovered the artist that was MOBY and his earlier works.

"Feel so Real" started to take me to places I never thought I could go.

Then when finally, I was up to date with his library, he released "Play" and the song "Porcelain" just...blew me away.

And just when I was starting to come down from my high, "18" came out and "Signs of Love" and "Harbour" kept me in the air.

He then comes out with "Hotel" and "Beautiful" excels with supportive tracks from "Spiders", "Slipping Away" and the bonus track "Chord Sounds"

Now, with "Last Night" out, MOBY appears to retrace his DANCE roots of his early works before the sampling, the folk songs, and pop tunes. He dedicates "Last Night" to the RAVE scene.

True I was skeptical with semi-feelings toward the first two singles "Alice" and "Disco Lies" but upon listening to the album with open ears, it didn't take long to once again, fall in love with his greatness and amend that growing collection of SONGS that sweep me off my feet.

It's almost funny, but in the majority of his albums it's always TRACK THREE!

"I love to move in Here" is hypnotic and catchy and stays in your head forever before you listen to the rest of CD.

I've looped it on my ipod and listened to it for hours...

That ONE song!

Riding the train to work, riding the bus home, on my PC while my sleep...it has become my obsession!

I really hope this becomes a single, thou another song appears to be next in line.

The only person who shares my admiration for moby is my Cousin in VA. I plan to give her a call on my day off and catch up with her...

The albums comes out Monday....

I got an early download last night...

I am on Cloud 9....

This man is a GENIUS...

I am 100 percent sure his music is played routinely in heaven...

Life is So-So

Yeah, I know...been falling off on the entries as of late, and I have tons of reasons in which I'll elaborate on right now...

*Flu Season - NOT what you think...my body's a temple, but Teletran X isn't...the PC's been getting infiltrated a few times and that jus makes me hit the ol' "Computer, activate Self Destruct Sequence" and start over from scratch...the only mishap is I lost my list of bookmarks and it's been a bytch to find all my favoriate sites all over again.

(I guess I should have put ALL of them on my blog links sidebar...)

*The hostage situation with my money - What can I say, I ain't got a smile on my face cuz the state RAPED me for 506.00. I had to max the final two of my four (already maxed out) credit cards to finally pay off the bastards WHILE still maintaining ontime payments by traveling to their banks in PERSON rather than paying them online! Luckily Capital One has taken over a chain of New York banks and popping up everywhere..."What's in YOUR wallet?...Shit it ain't fucking MONEY that's for sure!"

*MOM - MOM stands for Menace Of Magnitude, HIGH Magnitude...in other words BIIIIG Problem. She gets the living room painted, throws away junk, and has been on a cleaning fit for weeks!

*SIS - As if things couldn't get worst, Psycho-Lesbo-plans on conquering MySpace...

Look out, Tila Tequila...

Since we don't have a scanner anymore I've been working double-time scanning pictures for her at kinko's...

*The JOB - Sigh, the same ol' same ol'...people talking, worrying and shit, we scraping by...now there's talk that the lease may be up on our office space this year, come 2009 we'll have to move shop somewhere downtown...

*The Hustle - Been burning DVD's every damn day, now I'm workin iPods filling them up with people's requested music when I can...*WHEW* shyt's crazy...

*The Loneliness - I feel like I'm on an island, man...my body's falling apart. When I was doing the weight loss challenge on full figgas I was getting some of my energy back, drinking water and crystal light and walking...

Now, I'm falling apart again, not getting enough sleep, going to the bathroom 6 times a night, I'm not saying I'm Drooling, but there seems to be a severe abundance of saliva in my mouth and it's fuckin unnatural. I be almost jealous of those people out there who are dry-mouthed all the time cuz they have no saliva glands...always have to have a cup of water around them and shyt...

There's a sense of dread that comes around this time of year. This march makes it 3 years of being here with mom and that really jus makes me wanna cry...

I'm just thinking of ways to stay sane, trying to make it all keep making sense before I jus go off the radar. I keep waiting and telling myself to look for the sign...

The sign that it's all gonna be alright, that I'm in the clear, that I can move on...

But I don't see it...

I don't see...anything.

Hallie's a MOMMY!!!

The love of my life is officially a MILF, now...

This past weekend Miss Berry gave birth to a lovely lil baby girl...

Kudos!

I'm still here.

Still alive.

Still hanging in there...

My account is still being held hostage so I'm living on paycheck to paycheck funds at the moment.

Everyone else seems to be doing better...

MOM's acing all her driving lessons and gaining her confidence back, BUT she's having a problem maintaining her health insurance due to her unemployment payments. She's making too much for Medicaid and Family Health Plus while she browses the premiums for Healthy NY, which vary from carrier to carrier (And are VERY steep...).

Psycho-Lesbo Sis decided to spend her tax return and buy an overpriced, lackluster Comcrap (Compaq) Desktop for around 500 dollars. It's slow as hell, and comes with Vista. But it does have a nice flat screen monitor.

She brought it on a whim and should have had me along for advice, the idiot...

Well, at least Baby Girl will have an outlet now....To ACCESS CYBER-PREDATORS and expose herself to dangerous and disturbing images!!!!

MOM's also been tearing the house apart getting ready for the living room to be repainted.

MEANWHILE, on the job...

There's been a shakeup...

Marketing reps have been given the AX, and slowly, the ENTIRE third shift over at Copy Production has been diminished. Apparently, one of the managers (A dude named Moe) quit and took a lotta people with him to the promise land (Wow, that's cool, normally when you find a better job, ya don't look back...talk about looking out for your peeps!)

SO, more heads had to roll and there was (Yet Another) a Manager schedule restructuring. Third Shift Scanning has been eliminated. Two of the WORST scanners were FINALLY fired while one returned back to second shift. And finally, TWO managers from Production were also fired...including HAROLD, my DVD competitor in "the bizzness".

Wow...

Talk about mind blowing.

Everyone's thinking the writing's on the wall and the end could be near...

FUCK man, why does this KEEP happening to me! Everywhere I go the company is failing or on its last leg or about to be taken over!!!!

There was a time when this company was in the Top 5 Litigation imaging firms of New York, behind Ikon, and Pitney Bowes...WHAT IS GOING ON!??

Despite all this, I still stand behind my decision not to bail...I have another merit review coming up on the 22nd with ANOTHER raise due...If we can squeeze the lil work we can get from Wednesdays to Sunday (To hell with Monday and Tuesday!!!) and I get my 35 hours, I'm good!

With third shift gone, we don't have to worry about hiring rookies anymore...and as incompetent as first shift goes...We'll be running thangs!

So, I jus gotta hang in there and hope things change for the better...

With Harold gone, it's time for me to take over the market!

I remember that scene in Will Smith's movie "Pursuit of Happyness" when the government stepped in and JACKED his money on some back taxes at THE WORST POSSIBLE TIME and I was always afraid that would happen to me someday...

See, when I was working at IPS, the idiots in payroll weren't paying taxes to New York State for awhile. Some wasn't even goin to Federal and I wasn't claiming the number of dependents (Claiming 0 or 1 for yourself?...the shyt's still a mystery to me...)

SOOOO, I owed them a lil money.

And a lil grew into some more with interest, penalties and fees...

AND it wasn't like I didn't ignore the notices and refused to pay at all, I did, a lil...HEY, the fuckers also jacked my refunds for the last two years so DAMN!!

I settled with the FED but state was still looking for about 485 to 500 bucks...

and I was GONNA get around to it but I lost track of time...

Well, leave it to the state to fire a warning shot across my broadside.

I packed up to do some laundry today...and went to the bank to pick up twenty in quarters...

There was a problem at the bank...

My account had been levied.

I couldn't fuckin BELIEVE these guys...

I went right back home to make some phone calls...

75 AGONIZING Minutes later in the afternoon, an arrangement was made and my account SHOULD be freed up by tomorrow.



FUCKERS.



Shit ALWAYS has a habit of biting me on the ass at the worst times!!!!

Well, whaddya think?!?!?

Year Four - the year of the Chocolate Doo

I also updated my profile a bit, added a wishlist and answered a random question for the first time EVER.

Expect some new changes around here soon...
