Four and a half years later. Wow.

Today I read some of Eldridge Cleaver's "Soul on Ice", specifically his letter to his attorney who he falls in love with. It inspired me to write.

I like writing. I want to write and I want people to read what I write because sometimes I feel I have a way with words. I just don't know what to write about.

Timed writing? Word limits? Just go for it?

I feel like I'm stuck in a crossroads of my life. I'm ready to go one way but something is holding me back. My location? My mind? Maybe the crossroads are the internal versus the external...More importantly, I feel stuck...Why do I feel this way? I'm ready to change my lifestyle but economics and family matters keep me locked into the old to a certain degree...

This is coming out like a diary. I want to say something more relevant to the rest of the world but right now all I can seem to dive into is my own mind. I hope you don't mind. It's therapeutic (for me).

Maybe everyday I'll write until I don't feel like writing anymore.

When i'm not hanging out at the cafe, i'm hanging out at the other cafe. Pathetic? Possibly. You see the pho-mosiac, though? Painted like a mosaic. I'm feeling it.

My new room. the blog is back baby. i got so many hate mails and fan club-type mails since my blog was on a hiatus (sabbatical) that i've brought it back.

So this is my place since december and those are my new turnatables and my new midi keyboard. it took me three hours to curl that usb cable and get that "catalog" look i wanted. no pain, no gain--know what i'm sayin?

i'm really gonna be on the radio this time. Thursday the 21st from 12 to 1 pm on youthradio.org. The debut show of "internal strength international" hosted by me, DJ Rufus. You can get it live on youthradio.org or even download it as a podcast and bump it forever.

Yeah, so my computer kinda broke and I kinda stopped the whole daily blogging thing. By the amount of angry emails I've recieved (none) badgering me to get it going again, I know no one's noticed. It'll be back, though. Mark my words: IT'LL BE BACK GODDAMIT.

ANYWAY, I'm gonna do an internet radio show this thursday (September 12th) from 12 to 1 pm which you can link to from youth radio's website (youthradio.org). Click on "radio" and then tune in or download it as a podcast and listen to it whenever you want (and then forever). It's gonna be hot!

I took this one at work at Ashkenaz. Not many people showed up but the people who did had a good time and the band sounded good.
