my wife wants to go see dancing with the stars. she kinda weird tho. I want to go to a concert with some old head rappers. I don't really want to be pay for either option, although the concert can be done for less money.

we both like to shake a leg or two, so I'm checking out other options that are smaller and not as pricey.

we'll prolly stay home :)

then heading to the town to see Syd the Kid

he's the type that when he drinks he makes promises and then changes his mind when he sobers up. A party was planned at his house. he calls my mother a few hours ago, talking about "have it at your house because he don't want them niggas tearing up his house"

my mother is pissed. she fought about canceling it just to make a point. I guess we'll be here. eating and drinking and making fun of my brother...

ryan seacrest too.

I'm still debating on going out. not only because of the cost, but just not sure if I want the going out hassle.

getting dressed up, getting there, making sure the kids are good, blah, blah.

I might head back to Charlotte...

those.

how you gonna invite me over and i gotta bring 2 bottles of champagne, a fif of JW Black, and 50 wings? if i'm bringing all that, i might as well keep in and host the shit myself.

broke people shouldn't host.

i've also been invited to an annual house party that i've enjoyed in the past but there's some drama within the hosts house that caused them to call the party off and then call it back on again.

drama + emotions + likka & smoke = too many question marks and potential for nonsense.

i been deflecting those "what'chu doin for NYE" questions from people that are waiting for me to invite them over to my house cuz i don't wanna host this year. not in the mood...


***
I ain't lyin. This shit i'm making up is true...

like nah playa.

That good NYE DJ bonus lol. NYE is like the bonus check for DJ's lol.

I don't get mine until March.

Which was to include my DJing services and to supply sound. Then...they asked "so what type of sound system do you need us to rent?" I'm like ohhhh, i'm getting paid that much and don't even have to supply or rent sound??? Hell yea!

I always DJ at this restaurant bar where I DJ every Saturday anyway.
Literally walking distance from my house so I love it lol.

I just plug in to their sound system and go!

of DJing or are there certain events/times of year that you'd rather not?

Speakers and all that. That's really the worst part.

I also feel i'm past the point of DJing for certain type crowds or events. One of the wildest things about DJing for some of us is that we can do a high profile event one day, where everyone treats us like a celebrity (hell, including celebrities), then the next day, we are getting cussed out by somebody's auntie for not playing The Wobble early enough. I'm just at the point where I turn down 30-40% of the gigs i'm offered if I just don't feel like dealing with certain type crowds.

then the next day, we are getting cussed out by

>crowds.

I never thought about working with diff types of crowds. in my mind DJs are either always playing for aunties only or clubs only. I know that's not real, but that's just kinda what I see, but I guess that's how you move up.

events where there's no annoying Aunties. Hell, when Questlove said he had never even heard the Wobble or seen the dance before until two years ago, I knew he was far removed from doing that type shit.

But this is actually how a lotta folks feel, and it's why I try not to do as many BBQ's, 50th B-Days, and family type events anymore...just not the same prestige, even though they may actually pay as much or more than poppin clubs. It's hard though, because as a club DJ, unless you really have a huge, huge following, and you're in the highest of high demand, you're dependent on club promoters or owners to keep hiring you. I've seen so many top club DJs fall off within the last 6-8 years.

I'm trying to get to this level. I'm a niche DJ anyway kinda in a
similar lane as Quest, but I can't play the celebrity card yet where
that's what people around the world expect from me. I personally know
lesser known DJ's from Philly even that travel around the world
playing vinyl, funk, and breaks. I'm on trajectory to be on that
level within a couple years.

And bang at least four chicks that night. two I come with and two more we pick up.

Wish me luck :-)

have fun!

One chick has never been but she is a freak and we have had many 3somes.

The other chick that has been there with me before has never been with another girl.

Either its' gonna be an amazing night or a total disaster. LOL

Staying inside and away from people.

Same as any other day.

Im going to a 3 year old's birthday party Saturday afternoon in Anaheim, calling my parents at 9 PM West coast time (their anniversary is New Years Day) and crashing not too long after

anybody tryna come to Moreno Valley and crash on the couch, hit me up.

it's our anniversary.

I'm tryna be festive, but I dont really give a $hit. LOL

you can bring party favors, but no crack or 'hair-on'

lmao

"To Each His Reach"

It's a good way to enter the New Year and provides some perspective on what I and other people are doing/not doing with their lives when you drink and act like an idiot. Thinking of kicking off an official 2 month beer/carb/sugar free run with it.

good luck on the 2 month deal. I don't know if I have the kind of discipline. hence, I can't get rid of this belly.

Two things that always kill my kicking the beer runs.

I was planning on opting out but it's w/ Stretch Armstrong and it's a hotel so they're putting me up for the night. :)

the real party is Sunday night. i'm just going to a friend's house on Saturday night. Sunday night i'm going out to my favorite dance spot b/c i'm off on Monday. probably taking handfuls of

this last part....somehow I read handcuffs instead of handfuls.

I'm still debating. dancing with the stars sold out. so either the old head concert, club/hotel, or chill at the house.

Hopefully the wife makes it to midnight but prolly not.

Might smoke a fatty.

years. feel like doing something this time tho.

I turned up the system. even got a new set up over the last year or so so downsize them old ass speakers I had.

And I'm mad that it fell on the weekend this year. No days off from work, and it completely jacks up the weekend because all kinds of people are out acting stupid, and cops are pulling over everyone in sight just fishing for a DUI. Staying home.

hotel party thing.


My girl got a deal on the tix (they would otherwise be like 150 a piece).


Been a couple years since I've gone all out for NYE so I'm stoked for this one

but I'm being cheap.

Beef filet, shrip scampi, dill potatoes, and roasted brocolini. Wine and champagne as well. We **may** have some friends over, but I imagine we'll be dolo.

After eating, I figure we'll watch some shit on the DVR, watch the local feed at midnight, and go to sleep.

I need to get a camera to see what he does when he gets nervous is no one is home.

Plus gamble at a casino. I hope I win!

Make some good play money. I might be able to clean up on NYE and NYD. Sheeeeit!

Just got the good text too to notify me of the "2x surge" rate. I just need to get the energy gathered to go hard overnight and to get right back up to drive more on Sunday.

If I don't go out, I'll be in the house making a gumbo for Sunday and chillin with my fair lady.

on NYE. everybody everywhere, drinking/driving. sounds like a possible come up tho.

be safe

>on NYE. everybody everywhere, drinking/driving. sounds like a

i mean, that's generally the case on any friday/saturday night...i'd say less of a chance on NYE tho. so many cops and road checks out there

I wanna stop one year and start another by getting that bread.

BE SAFE and enjoy it as much as you possibly can.

dogs


folks were licking shots on Christmas so I assume theyll be doing it on NYE, the pups were nervous

I hate it.

and this was the first year I noticed it especially on Christmas, must be some new neighbors somewhere.


I was mad too cause I was out walking the dogs when I heard the shots and they sounded like they were just far enough way to make me really worried about falling bullets

I was taking my dog out back and shots fired. my dog was trying to poop and more shots rang out. he pulled the poop back in lol.

I had never heard shots on xmas before this year either.

Ditto to folks concerned about shots being fired and like y'all, this year was my 1st time hearing them on Christmas. wtf?

Whatever you do OK fam, be safe.
We have work ahead of us in 2017.

If not, I'm perfectly content w/ spending it w/ my dog

at the house.

dancing with the stars sold out. the old head concert is too expensive. might sit this one out.
