All right, all right, all right! Okay, first and foremost, I'm gonna go ahead and plug my next Taint Comedy Great? Comedy Show!

@ Kabin Bar & Lounge -- 92 Second Ave (bt 5th & 6th Avs)

So, yeah... that's gonna be awesome.

All right, all right. Speed and cheap champagne. Good times.

Hope y'all (all three of you) have been enjoying my mini-blog photo posts. I like 'em, and would like 'em even more if the camera on my phone weren't a piece of shit. But dems da breaks!

I successfully moved out of my itty-bitty apartment in Bushwick (or "East Williamsburg" if you're an asshole) and into a big, beautiful, inexpensive apartment in Ridgewood, Queens. That's right, the same "Ridgewood, Queens" I lived in this past January and February when I completely ran out of money (stayed with the most excellent J. Covello). R-wood has gone from a place of relative last resort (after-all, I was about ready to move back to *shudder* Baton Rouge) to a lair of luxurious enchantment.

My apartment is inexpensive, large, and located on a safe and tree-lined street. It's a couple blocks from where the L & M subway trains meet, so that's pretty convenient. 25+minutes to Union Square ain't all that great, but I'll be reading a lot more (***accepting donations for a Nintendo DS Lite, any color will do, save the pink one***). My room is huge and I pay a little more than my two roommates, but after living in a womb-like hovel since March, I don't mind (it's still less than that place anyway).

My roommates are great, too. Know 'em from when I worked at Spice Market. Equadorian Long Islander Leon sings in a rock band and works for non-profit ogranization that promotes healing-through-music/art for children in refugee camps and other war-torn parts of the world (in addition to their regular curriculum). New Zealander Tim is a jazz musician (plays the skin flute, er, the saxophone) who has just returned from a year traveling the world as the tour manager to the up-and-coming/increasingly-successful band The Checks. He's a party-promoting beast, so watch out. I want to combine Kiwi & Tim and call him Tiwi, but I don't think he'll let me.

So yeah, working a bunch, still, of course. Cash flow is desperate, as usual. 'Nother glass of champagne, good sir! Thanks. Seeing a bunch of shows and performing, too, but not as much as I'd like. Workin' on that now, actually. Will return with more sooner than later. Peace, bitches.
