The Year Of Creating Opportunity!

2010 is the year of opportunity. I hear people from various aspects of entertainment talking about trying to get "put on" with so & so from this record company, film studio or comedy club. I've seen people wait and wait and nothing ever happens.

I'm sorry, but I don't have time for that shit. My time is valuable and the last thing I need is to be wasting it waiting for something that might jumpoff one day. Yeah having an "in" is great, but how many other people are waiting for that same hookup?

I believe putting in work and laying the foundation in the beginning is great, but I refuse to be worked like a 9 to 5 and not see any results. At what point do you feel like you are being pimped for your skills? These companies are working the dog shit out of their employees and paying them peanuts.

There is no honor is getting played.

2010 is the year of creating your own opportunities. Whether it's starting that new business you always dreamed of, or writing that book you've been meaning to write, etc.

Once this life is over, that's it. You don't get to come back and revise your plans.

Now get out there and make it happen!

The End Of The Decade

Wow I can't believe that we are at the end of the decade. Seems like yesterday I was debating on whether I should buy tuna fish and water to survive Y2K. I gotta say though, this decade truly kicked my ass, physically, mentally and spiritually.

Let's see what went on that is worth mentioning;

W. stole an election and took the country to the edge of hell and almost pushed us in with his crazy ass!

9/11 (which also happens to be ya girls birthday BTW).

My ex of almost 13 years and I split and went our separate ways.

I went out on a limb and moved to Texas.

My Grandmother passed away (I miss you Ma!)

I had a heart attack. Got married, had a son and then had a mild stroke.

Finally came back to the stage after vowing to never perform any kind of material ever again for almost 20 years (that's kind of a long story).

I'm looking forward to the next 10 years to see what other weird twists fate will throw my way.
