Athan's Bakery

So, I've decided the only obvious way for me to keep up with the outside world, is to come to the local bakery/coffee shop up the street from me.... ah free wireless and overpriced lattes that I guzzle before I can even get my mac book turned on. I always had a problem with making things last- money, drinks, and boyfriends- all inclusive in that statement.  

So two days ago I painfully rolled out of bed at 12; luckily I had showered the night before.  I threw clothes and makeup on, and was on the 57 into kenmore square by 12:30.  I met up with an old friend of mine on Newbury St for lunch. It was so crazy- I had known him when I was 17, I believe? We met at a show of his eons ago, and kept in touch, then, intentionally fell out of contact.  He had basically turned a blind, possibly bitter back on his partying band days- and consequentially all that came with it.  Regardless, it was great to grab lunch with him- later he sent me the 'fictional' memoir manuscript he was working on.   I read it last night- it was really really amazing, so when it becomes a full book, I'd challenge all of you to read it. It makes me excited to work on my story more. I'm laughing all the way through it, so hopefully you all will too!

So, here I am. Going out of my way to blog! How good am I, karms?? I still don't understand how to add a friends list, or add websites I look at... although the only thing I'd have to contribute there would be perezhilton.com, grouphug.us, and digg.com .  

I finally started training at this coffee shop across the street from me- as in, my location at this exact moment. I went in for two hours yesterday; it seems super easy. I can make a latte like no ones business.  I need money so badly I can taste it- my sugar daddy paid for my phone bill. He's so happy to finally be supporting me, and it makes me happy that he's happy.  It's the first time he's had the hungry-for-paycheck eyes.  I really love him so much. 

The album is coming together more and more every day, although I'm listening to Aesop Rock now, and I think I want to make more songs and nix out some of the old ones. Most of what we wrote has come to be eastern european dance/jazz, but 2 of the songs that we both LOVE are nothing of that style... which leads me to say that after this blog, I'll be opening Garage Band to make some new beats, in effort to make new songs that will help mesh everything together more efficiently.

God, I want another latte. I believe I have $4.00 left. I can't wait for my first paycheck. I need to buy a pair of boots. Fall has officially arrived. I need a jacket too... I have silly tour outfits that are far too skimpy and silly for real life.

Ah, tour is such an alternate reality- it really is.  But if you're on it for long enough, home is kind of your alternative reality... if you have a home... I wonder if I'll ever live in the same place for more than six months. If I had a magic 8 ball, I think the little octagon would pop up with an "Ask Again Later".

I LOVE MY LIFE.
