Why does your mom keep giving me coupons?
I’m looking forward to noon, when I can munch on the leftover pizza that I brought in for lunch.
I’m looking forward to five, when I can head out to Lansing to see
I’m looking forward to Monday and Tuesday, when I will get a lot of writing done.
I’m looking forward to Friday, when I get paid.
Can you tell that today is my Friday? :)
Cybertron
Matt and I are well on our way to turning our pod into a mini-Cybertron. We will NOT, I repeat, NOT, be eaten by Unicron.
Despite
MU HA HA!

I was ejected from City Club after 4 songs into my second set, around 1:50am.
I was told by Sybil Carter, the manager of the club, that there was a single (1) complaint of “too much techno.” She decided at that point that I was a threat to the stability of the dance floor regardless to the fact that the dancefloor was full previous to and during the song ‘Lonely’ by Praga Kahn. She decided to use the head of security to inform my DJ partner I was to be removed because of this one complaint, regardless of the impact upon him or the patrons.
This as a practice, in my view, is unaccecptabe from a managerial position, and from the standpont of a person who is hired to entertain the patrons of an estabilishment. It was my position that as an employee at the City Club , the professonal thing to do was to provide two (2) weeks notice and give the management time to find an adequate replacement. I had given that notice and time, and apparently the management did not believe I should remain as an entertainer at the club any longer.
I encourage you, the patron of City Club, to express a displeasure in the management practice in discarding an entertainment provider at will based upon a single complant. This practice, in my opinion, is very unprofessional and deserves to be rallied against.
As a result, my farewell set as scheduled next Friday will not take place. I hope you will all be able to join me this upcoming Saturday, October 4, 2003, at Luna in Royal Oak, for my introductory night as the weekly resident DJ. I guarantee it will be a night to remember.
I hope you will also take the time to farewell DJ Bill Paskins tonight, September 27, 2003, who will be presenting his farewell set at Luna as a resident DJ. He plans to spend more time focusing on his record store, East Alley Records in downtown Rochester, Michigan.
Take care of each other, and I’ll see you at Luna next Saturday!
A smile
I can’t describe how wonderful it was to be greeted with such a beautiful and loving smile after game last night. Thank you,
Buckle down, this storm is called Skippy.
I got denied for the apartment.
Apparently, my credit report has two accounts on it that are in collections. Interesting. Also, this “Tenant/Landlord Activity” from SafeRent. Interesting.
SafeRent needs to be called, so that I can find out a)the landlord that put this entry on my record, and hopefully b)what exactly that activity means. If they’re a typical credit/behavior reporting company, they will tell me who the landlord is and say that I have to take it up with them.
Also, I need a copy of my credit report. I already have a coupon for a free one, and the apartment complex has been nice enough to send me a coupon for a free credit report as well. Before and after are taken care of.
What this means to me is this: I will most likely not move out to A2/Ypsi until my 90 days are in. This jives nicely with what my Dad suggested, so I will not be overextending my welcome in the T-W-P. It also means that I will have time to save up a nice buffer of cash.
It may even mean that I will be able to go to ICC. I’m thinking of taking a train both ways and getting one of the cheapass hotel rooms that are left.
My determination is set and my path is clear. My foundation is strong, therefore I will succeed.
Your Skippy needs Transformers badly!
Well, I was supposed to have a meeting with my team, but it would have taken too many people off of the phones. Whoops.
I’m all full and happy now… that leftover Chili’s burger hit the spot much better than the Pizza Hut buffet did yesterday. That one had repercussions that did not make me happy. Needless to say, I won’t be going back there again any time soon.
I think I’m just going to bring Blurr in to work. No need to spend money yet. At least not until I find out that I got my apartment. ;)
I took some photos of the shattered crystal yesterday. I’m hoping that they reflect the flash in some cool ways. I’m going to have to check out my version of iPhoto, to see if it can create an online photo album. I remember Photoshop doing it, but I’m not sure that I want to appropriate Photoshop all over again.
Life is pretty good. I get to see
Your Skippy needs food badly!
I’m at my new desk at work. My name is already up on the wall. I’m thinking about buying a new Optimus Prime (or Primal from that Universe series of toys that’s coming out) for my desk. It would be a more WISE decision to bring the Blurr that I left at Benny’s place. It would be a more FUN decision to pick up a new TF from Meijer’s. Choices, choices!
I’ll be calling Fossil soon about the watch, guys. You’re damn right I’m going to get the crystal replaced, that watch is the coolest and means a lot to me.
I’m very hungry. I have Chili’s leftovers in the fridge. Lunchtime is soon!
