Of Hash browns, big companies and kissing.

Actually, the title says it all.

I’ve been going early out these days since the sembreak began due to morning shifts at the radio station. But on the other hand, I also suspect you’ll be seeing more of me fat if this keeps up. Morning shifts equals morning proximity at McDonald’s. Oh no! The station is too near one and those damn Hash Browns are clogging my arteries and fattening me! Being a DJ should have its perks and unperks, though. I mean, even if I get fat (theoretically) I suppose, being able to have control of the music you want to play and the requests that come your way is one of the best feelings in the world. It’s almost like a position of power. Drama, much. And while I have this freedom I suggest y’all send me samplers if you have any. Would really appreciate that.

And hey, this band thing is really getting out of hand. In a good way. I love that I’m playing in gigs again and that we’re starting a new band called Parchment. I love that I get to organize gigs. And that last gig I mentioned was so fucking successful that San Miguel wants to invest on us again. Oops, name dropping. Hahaha, yeah yeah. I mean, they sort of have this repertoire of being, how should we put it, kind of uptight in the past. But when I got to talk with one of the representatives of the company, he made too much sense that those pre-conceived notions about corporate uptight-ness were dispelled. He was telling me about how the concept of Octoberfest has been reformatted in such a way that the event outlets ought to be the one to drive the initiative to have a San Miguel sponsored gig. I mean, not only does this maximize their profit amidst the big investment on their part, but it’s as if the outlets see San Miguel as a sort of “milking cow”. Aptly put. That’s your business commentary for today.

What about kissing? Hmm…kissing. Let’s just say a kiss can mean a lot of things but sometimes you tend to feel that the world is dilluting its meaning. And sometimes, if you have enough sense in you not to let the few things in this life that are still beautiful and meaningful be a victim of this, you are a person who is not afraid to kiss.

Or you can also be a person who would rather not kiss. For its meaning’s sake.

I so love Regina Spektor’s Fidelity. (Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-heart!) She sounds a lot like Feist, and if you were listening carefully then, you’d have heard of Mushaboom. Speaking of Mushaboom, The Postal Service has a beautiful version of it. KNOW YOUR MUSIC!
