Monday 4/3
Here's a cool quote from Reneegetsfit
"To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment." - Ralph Waldo Emerson
I'm definately relating to that right now.
I only got to hang with Smacking one day. Wish we coulda hung out more, but I just didn't get things organized ahead of time.
Still, it was the longest we've spent together since college. And it was very cool. We ate twice, took my car to the shop, and watched a movie. The movie and dinner included my wife which was very cool too!
Listening to Alanis Morrisette's "Your House" - trippy song.
Anyway, I'm still psyched about the kids getting this recording gig. It's local and informal, but still good. They are resisting the idea of listening to the guy from the studio. One of my nephews is talking about "we should do what we want." I tell them, sure, you figure out how to pay for it. When its someone else's dime you deal with them more flexibly. I told my son to look at it like George Clinton: Parliament was the more pop music group and Funkadelic was more experimental and free.
We'll see how it goes.
KEEP LIFTING!!!
