while wendywife is upstairs washing dye out of her hair and the wee kidlets are playing nicely in their rooms, i shall update. let's see... well i walked out of one of my dj jobs the other night, which i have never done before. not in the middle of the shift at least. but the guy was just a complete fucktard and had no idea what he was doing or how to run a club and had been abnormally insulting as of late and he made a snide comment about something i was playing and i just went "....you know what? i'm going home. bye." packed up my shit and walked....leaving him with nothing but the 100 or so songs he has in his computer, which last i checked was 20% xmas tunes and stuff like "the electric slide". heh. i really needed the paltry amount of cash i made there, but oh well. sometimes you just have to do what feels right.
speaking of computers, i have been wanting to make the change to a laptop at work for some time now, as lugging the insane amount of cd's i bring from club to club is unbelievably obnoxious. but i havent had the cash to switch it up. while on the phone with my father the other day i mentioned something about it and lo and behold he calls me the next day to say "hey, i got you a free laptop". he works for raytheon and apparently they get new computers every couple of years and just give the old ones to charity or whatnot as a writeoff. so i got a free laptop. it's older, a compaq armada 7800. only has a pentium 2 and a few other things, but nothing that isn't easily upgradable. and hey, FREE. so i've been sitting with my friend and fellow titty-bar guy brian and uploading everything i have that he doesnt into HIS laptop, and when we're done i'm just ripping his whole hard drive. so far we have made it to "H" alphabetically, and we're already at something like 34 gigs. and after the alphabet comes all the soundtracks and random compilations, then the book of promo only discs, so i think when this is all said and done we will have more songs than god. nice. and in a groovy easily transportable package. even better.
see this is why i never post.....i dont have anything terribly interesting to say. blargh.
at any rate, thaddeus has been at my mom's house for 10 days or so. it's strange not having him around, but man are there far less noisy "DAAAAAAAAD!!!! HE TOUCHED ME!!!" type fights. so yeah. i'm gonna shower after wendy is done, then go poke around a bit for new job possibilities. i need to find something else not stripclub related because i am seriously sick of it, but i'm hard pressed to find something that is easy hours and straight cash. i'm not cute enough to be a gigolo, and drug dealer is not the profession for me so....i dunno. maybe i'll whore myself out to do weddings and parties or some other obnoxious thing like that. i just don't know. ANYWAY. there you have it, kids. carry on.
