Today is Friday...

"FRIDAY I'M IN LOVE" ~ The Cure

I don't care if Monday's blue
Tuesday's gray and Wednesday too
Thursday I don't care about you
It's Friday, I'm in love

Monday you can fall apart
Tuesday, Wednesday break my heart
Oh, Thursday doesn't even start
It's Friday I'm in love

Saturday, wait
And Sunday always comes too late
But Friday, never hesitate...

I don't care if Mondays black
Tuesday, Wednesday - heart attack
Thursday, never looking back
It's Friday, I'm in love

Monday, you can hold your head
Tuesday, Wednesday stay in bed
Or Thursday - watch the walls instead
It's Friday, I'm in love

Saturday, wait
And Sunday always comes too late
But Friday, never hesitate...

Dressed up to the eyes
It's a wonderful surprise
To see your shoes and your spirits rise
Throwing out your frown
And just smiling at the sound
And as sleek as a sheik
Spinning round and round
Always take a big bite
It's such a gorgeous sight
To see you eat in the middle of the night
You can never get enough
Enough of this stuff
It's Friday, I'm in love

I don't care if Monday's blue
Tuesday's gray and Wednesday too
Thursday I don't care about you
It's Friday, I'm in love

Monday you can fall apart
Tuesday, Wednesday break my heart
Thursday doesn't even start
It's Friday I'm in love

New Car Today

Today is the day I get a new car. This week dragged along until today. In just one hour I will be the proud owner of a white Nissan Pathfinder. I shall name her the SS Stella del Soul. She and I will go on many, many new adventures. Her name will be signed at the bottom of my new lease on life.

The Beatles...

The Beatles are one of those rare bands that is completely timeless. I feel as if they were sent from God to teach us all how to live our lives in a world of craziness. This is best evidenced by songs like "Let it Be", "We Can Work it Out", "With a Little Help From My Friends", and...

Hey Jude

Hey Jude, don't make it bad,
Take a sad song and make it better.
Remember to let her into your heart,
And then you can start to make it better.

Hey Jude, don't be afraid,
You were made to go out and get her.
The minute you let her under your skin,
Then you begin to make it better.

And anytime you feel the pain,
Hey Jude refrain,
Don't carry the world upon your shoulders.
Because you know that its a fool
Who plays it cool
By making his world a little colder.

Na na na na, na na na na...

Hey Jude, don't let me down,
You have found her now go and get her
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better

So let it out and let it in, hey Jude begin
You're waiting for someone to perform with
And don't you know that its just you?
Hey Jude you'll do the movement you
Need is on you shoulders.

Na na na, na na, na na na na yeah

Hey Jude, don't make it bad,
Take a sad song and make it better.
Remember to let her into your heart,
Then you can start to make it better.

Na na na, na-na na na
Na-na na na Hey Jude,
Na na na, na-na na na
Na-na na na Hey Jude.

Na na na, na-na na na
Na-na na na Hey Jude,
Na na na, na-na na na
Na-na na na Hey Jude.

Na na na, na-na na na
Na-na na na Hey Jude,
Na na na, na-na na na
Na-na na na Hey Jude.

One of my favorite songs of all time... Have a great day.

Me the athlete

Its been so long, I almost forgot that I was once an athlete. Ten years of gymnastics, fifteen years of B-Boying, and twenty years of skateboarding seemingly got lost somewhere in what I became. Biking 15 miles every morning before dawn has re-awakened that part of me. What I had forgotten, my muscles seemed to remember. They are now thanking me for it. Who I really am is not the couch riding lazy guy that I had grown so accustomed to being. I now know that a huge part of me is directly connected with fitness. This fitness is not only physical, but it somehow is connected to my mental health. There is a big part of myself that is at the core, never satisfied with the status quo of life. Everything can be better, I can always be better, I can always do better, make smarter moves. I am a bar raiser. I was not happy in so many ways, in fact, I was miserable. I can see this pretty clearly. The only evidence of this lies in my deejaying. I was never satisfied with my current skill level. I always wanted to learn a new skratch, new technique, new trick. I can always be a better deejay. Its so clear to me now.

My mission now is to tap all of my talents and continue to raise the bar in all aspects. I will be a better artist and painter. I will be a better deejay and producer. I will be stronger, thinner, and more muscular. All of these things are directly tied to my true happiness. I may never be satisfied, but I will be happy.

As I begin seeing land on the horizon...

There will be less yacht and more bounce. I can't be out to sea forever.

Post-Love Yacht Bounce

Even the nights are better (Yacht Bounce Remix) by TonySkratchere



These were some of the hardest to get through emotionally for obvious reasons.

Reminiscing ~ Little River Band (Yacht Bounce Remix)

Reminiscing (Yacht Bounce Remix) by TonySkratchere

Its amazing how one life changing event can turn a happy song into a sad song. The power of great songwriting knows no bounds.

Darkest Day

Bad by U2

If you twist and turn away
If you tear yourself in two again
If I could, yes I would
If I could, I would
Let it go
Surrender
Dislocate
If I could throw this
Lifeless lifeline to the wind
Leave this heart of clay
See you break, break away
Into the night
Through the rain
Into the half-light
Through the flame

If I could through myself
Set your spirit free
I'd lead your heart away
See you break, break away
Into the light
And to the day

Oooh oooh, oooh oooh, oooh oooh oooh...

To let it go! And so fade away
To let it go!
And so fade away
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
Wide awake
I'm not sleeping, oh no, no, no

If you should ask then maybe they'd
Tell you what I would say
True colors fly in blue and black
Blue silken sky and burning flag
Colors crash, collide in blood shot eyes

Oooh oooh, oooh oooh, oooh oooh oooh...

If I could, you know I would
If I could, I would
Let it go

This desparation
Dislocation
Separation
Condemnation
Revelation
In temptation
Isolation
Desolation
Isolation

Let it go
And so fade away
To let it go, oh yeah
And so fade away
To let it go, oh No
And so fade away
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
Wide awake
I'm not sleeping oh no no
