- - Soooo.... (http://74.208.121.111/LoT/showthread.php?t=136)

So, about 20 or 30 pages back, I talked about having my first gig with my new band, The Naked Funk. A few people asked me to share clips if they became available. And I just found out tonight that there are some on youtube.

I should warn that they are not of the best quality. This is the house mix, which sounds a little out of whack, not to mention that we are certainly still rough around the edges. Still, I thought I would share for anyone interested.

By the way, some of you know my dear friend Jessica. Her mother was recently diagnosed with breast cancer and had surgery yesterday. She's been labeled with a Stage 3 that affected 3 lymph nodes.

So, please keep her and her mom in your thoughts and prayers. I know all too well what it's like to have a parent with an escalated cancer. There are going to be some hard times ahead, and they can use all the loving energy they can get.

Thanks. :)

Jessica will definitely be in my prayers.

And, I've been desperately longing to hear my mom's voice for months now, and there she was - her entire toast was caught on video, and I didn't even know it. I got to hear her say "I love you", and it's just too awesome to describe. I now feel like she's still with me and always will be.

It reminds me of why I love what I do - capture the moments of a lifetime forever. :)

Oh how awesome is that! I know how much you needed that. I am so glad you were blseed in this way. :)

What's wrong with you people? I missed almostt hree full days of the Soo.... Thread and there were only three pages to go through? :rolleyes:

Y'all have lost your touch. Shame on you! LOL

So where have I been?

Well on thursday I was "hired" to bring in my DJ equipment and play some music at tghe private school for kids with special needs in town (my mom is the Secretary there). So on Wednesday night I had to drag out all of my stuff and get it all together, make sure I had all the stuff the kids liked, and got a good night's sleep (or at least tried to). I really had no idea what was going to happen because the nice teenagers who hired me never told me what I was going to be doing exactly and what my duties were. I would learn later that thye had my number and lost it.

So I woke up at 6 AM and did the final prep work and loaded it up in my mom's station wagon. At 8 AM it was off to the school. I met up with the very sweet Teenage volunteers who hired me. they are really girls after my own heart. they wanted to help raise money for the school to help pay the book fees for the students. So they set up wagon rides, a drink/snack stand, and karaoke to help raise the money. Parents sent their kids in with money and they piad the girls as everything transpired.

It was hot, humid, and sticky with temps in the 90's. Thank goodness I had the forsight to realize that whatever was going down would happen outdoors and brought a hat and plenty of sunscreen. That did not help my equipment though so I am glad for a pause in the action and i moved my stuff (sans speakers) inside a trailer. The kids had a blast and I did too (despite having to play the High School Musical 2 Soundtrakc ad nausium for three hours (that's what the girls wanted me to play so I did). The final talley ended up being around $125. The girls slipped me a few dollars but I later slipped them back in the bucket.

As for the rest of Thursday I took the evening fo R&R. It was fun but stressful and emotionally exhausting. Not only did I have the gig but I got called a few times by fellow DJ's on the Radio Station about drama that I didn't need to deal with (read I didn't want to hear about it...there has been too much crap and drama surrounding things there for the past month). In addition to that Charter finally came to install Cable and didn't have the right equipment. Ugh!

Yesterday I went to lunch with my Great Uncle and destressed. Thank goodness Charter came and made things right. We finally have Cable again after 11 days of nothing.

So that's what's been up with me. I missed you guys for the past three days (from Wednesday evening to now).

That makes me sad. No one invited me.

Nope, not begging.

Not atwitter over Twitter. Or LJ. Or any other way to OCDiddly document every moment of my life and the lives of those around me.

I have, however, come to appreciate the occasional txt msg as a quick check-in tool. i.e.: movie?, call, Im here r u?, etc.
