Went to Key club tonight to finalize my hours/job stuff. All is set: I will do weekends. I think this will be good as it's $150 a night and I can't really make that doing anything else out here, that is, without breaking my back. I like the house system, (the Avo Pearl and the ETC rack) but the actual lights suck. I mean seriously: Comar and Trackspots? the Cybers don't even work! Actually they might want to sell the cybers to Cal Arts if I can get the school interested. All is depending on if the school offers better money than seeing if a "gift" for a tax write-off is better. I suppose it's out of my hands, but I will need to fix two of them. noting serious, but some repairs need to happen.
And I am looking to buy the extra Avo Pearl from the house TD... he has one that he can't seem to rent out to make it worth keeping.
This way I can teach and Avo programming class and better myself on it before I hand it to Duncan at
Pinpoint Lighting in PA to rent out.
Besides that, I am ok. The portfolio day was cool: loads of really different stuff from various schools of thought. No one was alike.
I went to "Hell" tonight... no, not Dr. Faustus style, but a club night in Hollywood.
(and to the New Yorkers, no, Hollywood doesn't default as Hell, so stop snickering)
It was at a great space that doubles as a restaurant by day called Kung Pao Kitty, on Hollywood and Wilcox. It rocked; they played some good old school industrial (Front 242 and Nitzer Ebb) as well as new stuff (And One, VNV, Icon of Coil). I needed to vent my angst on the dance floor. The place was great: cool people and I got 2 free drink passes from a guy that worked there. The lovely lady who ran the event has put me on the guest list too!
Sunday is reserved for Xian's event:
Malediction Society.
Alas, no more late sundays for me as my Monday classes are from 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM.
(Can we say "OH SHIT!?! Somebody's gonna fail by default/lack of class attendance??!!")
I will need a 7am PST wake up call on Mondays (that's 10am EST for you New Yorkers)
Please! Anyone! Call me on Mondays to get my ass to class! You all know I can't do mornings!
I'll give you a drink if I make it to class off your wake-up call.
(when I see you all again, that is.)
I miss home.
