Blog Entry #1: Welcome to the smorgasbord/My, how the days go on!

Alright, so I finally decided to be the online narcissist and start up an NYC blog for all the people who are probably wondering about how I'm doing in this mad house, and for those I know who are officially wondering.

Will this be updated regularly? No, it will be whenever I'm trying to avoid things I should be doing, riding that beautiful line between childhood and adulthood. Thanks procrastination!

What will be included here? Hell if I know. What is included in the shopping carts of a 99 cent store? Think of it as reaching your hand into the little box at the carnival and trying to figure out if that's a slug, a rotten banana or some wet pasta. And now that the mood is set lets begin...



I'd like to thank Buena Vista Social Club for keeping my evenings sane by giving a much-needed vacation to my mind--good shit folks--give it a listen. The brief summary of my day is this:

-I get up at 3:45 in the morning to ride the train to work. I'm serving lattes. We'll leave it at that...

-I get off around 2:15ish and head back home, do some stuff and teach a few lucky students in the evenings. Some days it's house calls, others at my place. Afterward it's Buena Vista time (if there is time) combined with wrestling my tired eyes to stay open long enough to finish the nights beer. The first beer.

-Somewhere in-between I manage to do all the other little things: advertise on Craigslist, shower (I've been consolidating these into Wednesdays and Saturdays to save time,) check my mail from my PO box, get business cards proofed+updated and printed, play a little music and enjoy the city as I pass it by throughout the daily process. It feels good.

Time to get back out there. You all take it easy now, a'ight.
