59445, I.was.scared.to.death
Posted by Shakeet Lokh Em, Thu Aug-17-06 08:48 AM
I was eatin some buffalo wings right. You know the TGIF ones you can buy in the market? They real good. So anyway, as I'm eatin and watchin Aqua Teen Hunger Force, I notice my left foot is almost completely numb. Then I realize my whole left side feel tingly. Then I remembered the whole weekend my left side would feel tingly on and off. I had been sick and didn't know why. Headaches, backaches, blurred vision. I thought I was just tired from work. But I remembered the stroke symptoms I read about. And I have hypertension, so I'm a prime candidate. I got one of those home blood pressure monitors. I took mines and it was 206 over 178! Then I got scared, which ironically I know raised my blood pressure more. I went to my doctor and she confirmed it. She said the good news was that I didn't have a stroke. But the bad news was I almost did. So now I'm on all these pills. And a strict diet. Basically rabbit food and water. I guess my niggerish eating habits has caught up with me. It's work enough tryin to master my flow. The LAST thing I need is to have a stroke and not be able to speak out one side of my mouth. I would drop the mic. Thanx for the concern and everything yall.
59449, God bless'd...

59388, I'm quitting my job to pursue my music full time
Posted by daniemuse, Tue Aug-15-06 03:26 PM
My last day is on Friday! I'll be free to promote my album full-time, gig more (cause it's a bitch trying to be at work at 9a when you just got home at 2a), and network more. To pay the bills a little, I got a job teaching hip-hop production and a hip hop ensemble part-time at Berklee College of Music.

That's my deal for now. What's good with everyone else?

Is there going to be another topic tourney soon?

That's real cool-- a big step! Congratulations. You know I wish that there was a grant for women of color-- something like the MacArthur awards that allowed you to have your 500K for five years to do whatever you wanted.

Often times I think our work holds us back from following the artist's dream-- os is it that the dream cannot exist withoout the struggle?

Yo just cause you got a degree don't mean people will give you a job. Or maybe it's because i'm trying to get into the goverment. Either everyone stay up. I'm trying to come around a little more on the board.
