Big day tomorrow. Show day. Seattle day. Movie day. All rolled into one! I haven't done my own set since...February I think. Needless to say I'm more than a little rusty. Thankfully the place will be full of friends like Chandra, Bethany, Ryan, YT, Karl, and Dan to name a few, who have all seen me suck ass at rapping before. So I'm not that nervous.
Wow work has sucked! Turns out one of the Indian offices went down so we we've been having to take tech and general calls. I'm use to having a handful of minutes in between calls, but not today. I'm very spoiled and I had grown accustom to it.
Shitty day at work. Can't wait to go home. It took 10 hours to write this between calls and insane British/Brazilian people who spend over an hour with me wanting to know everything about a product on our website. Guess that's why I get paid the big bucks. Oi. At least my blogs aren't as depressing as Damon's. Sheesh! See ya in Seattle kids!
I'm not all that busy right now. But soon.
June 12th I'll be in Seattle for STIFF (Seattle True Independent Film Fest) for screenings of Nerdcore For Life and to do a show afterwards. I'm hoping that I'll be able to get out of work without using any personal or vacation time as I am trying to save it all for PAX, but I will find a way to be at both one way or another. In more exciting news, Chandra's coming with me. Maybe Ryan too, but who cares about that kid :P
The plan is to drive up Wednesday night or Thursday morning, hit up some Seattle spots, go to the screening, rock the mic, and come back that night so I can go to work Friday. Not as fun as I'd like for it to be, but Chandra is a really laid back co-pilot which I strongly like and she's offered to drive us back home. I don't know if I'll actually allow such things as I really dig driving, but I know I'll be pretty tuckered out. So maybe.
I'm really hoping the flick goes over well. I'm going back to Seattle on Sunday for the second screening, unless they hate it Thursday night, in which case I'm staying far far away. But I've seen the flick twice now and it's goofy and fun and I really don't come off as a dick which is an amazing plus. Maybe I can con Bethany into doing a write up about STIFF since a couple of local boys will be featured. Also kind of cool that Dan will be flying in from Chicago to be here. He's a character and a good dude who should have spent less time fucking with kids on message boards like he told me to do lol. I just wish I could make more out of the Thursday night events and I hope that Chandra is able to come up with me again on that Sunday when we'd have more time to check out all the cool shit Seattle has to offer.
In other news, a dude in LA wants to make a music vid for I'm No Superman and I think he wants to fly me down. I hate LA, but this dude has some really dope ideas for what he wants to do for the vid so I might be able to suffer through SoCal for a short time. I just wish it was San Fransisco or the Bay in general so I could hang out with Doc Pop for a bit. I miss that guy. More info on this as I get it, but for now it's in the possible column of events.
