It's Like Spinning Until You're Dizzy And Falling Down


So, naturally, I re-hurt myself yesterday, landing me back on the bed, trying to find a way not to rub my right elbow down to the bone. Can this get anymore fun? 

Yes! It! Can! 

I'll spare you, except to say iMovie - part of the iLife suite of programs that come with the Mac? Shittiest product from Apple I've ever encountered. How bad is it? You have to quit the program to save your work. And, since it's an unreliable and shaky contraption, that demands you save a LOT. 

I'm not ungrateful, but work's reduced to the time-consuming pace of stop-motion photography, where even small movements can take forever to accomplish. Or, as in the case above, I ended up abandoning my whole idea (after getting so dumbfounded with the previous project I was forced to stop) then - finally getting DIY creative - I switched gears and lowered my goal to "Fuck It" level.

Just Get 'Er Done! 

With the way things are going, I'm patting myself for even that much,...

An Update On The Issues (That Should Be Over By Now)


I've been trying to get out of bed lately, only to discover how easily I can hurt myself again (It's a lot like going online in that way,...). The inflammation is gone, but the bulging discs are still getting pinched, depending on how I move. I'm teaching myself to coordinate around them, within reason, but I still can't work, though my boss has assured me he's willing to wait and see if I improve. If so, because I've been such a good employee and knows what he expects, he'll make me a supervisor. 

But right now, I can't even sit for any extended period of time, so whatever.


And I now have NO money. Not a little money - NO money. I know some of you can't imagine or relate, so let me explain: 

NO change in my pockets, NO money in the bank. Stretching my meals into two, and drinking only water. There is an up-side, though:


When this is over - by NewAge standards - I'll look "healthy" and "sexy" like women today expect.


And finally, I've got my third video for you done. This one has multiple photos, and scrolling lyrics and shit, but the software that I used to make it - which came with this still-new computer - is already outdated. Somehow, because of how I got the computer, Apple says it'll take them up to two days to straighten everything out and send me an upgrade. Two days in the age of technology? Bullshit:


I think it's all because I'm black (Kidding,...)
