I haven't really been too fond of the whole blog thing for a while now. Don't get me wrong, I love

my blog. I'm just not all there anymore. It became a task. I kind of lost who I was (blogging wise),

in transition of getting more recognition. It turned into me posting anything to fill in space to give

visitors something to look at. I felt like there was a need to update with anything, as long as it w-

as with something. That was never my true purpose when I created this blog. My true purpose

was to attempt to blend everything I was into (including semi-personal shit) into one. I've been l-

acking in a few departments, and overdoing in others. There isn't much to blend anymore. A l-

ot of people come to me and ask, "When are you going to blog something again?" - Things like

that bring pressure. There's not enough balance if everything is done based on pressure right?

So, a balance is what I need, and currently aiming for. So please don't think I fell off the face of

the Blogsphere when I don't update for 1/2 a week or more. Take is as I'm taking things one da-

y at a time, so I can continue to keep this spot as balanced as I possibly can.

I fell asleep watching Clockers the other night. I figured I'd throw some screenshots I took on the

blog. I recommend you check out this movie if you haven't gotten around to it. It's one of Spike

Lee's many great films. I threw a few short Youtube clips from the movie in the comment section.

I ended up picking up a new pair of Metallic V's. Here's a picture of the old vs. the new:

This past weekend was extra long. I felt like I was running around like a chicken with its head cut

off. I went out to Seaside Heights a few times, and did the beach bum thing, & then I went over

to NYC for 3 hectic meet ups that I was late for (due to NJ Transit). Good thing I was meeting up

with pretty cool people. I also didn't end up having to wait a full hour to catch the train back to NJ

after everything was said and done. Back to being a beach bum though. I faced my fears when it

comes to the ocean. I haven't been in the ocean since I was about 8 or 9 years old, but I manag-

ed to put everything to the side, and jump head first into crashing waves. I feel ashamed to say I

was pretty skeptical of getting in the water. That's all history now. I'm also happy I finally stopped

sleeping, and picked up a wireless Xbox Live adapter. I was just about to sell my Xbox off too..

I decided to run my updates today, and one of the updates was Safari 4.0 (I believe). The new

Macs already have the newer Safari. So, if you're on dinosaur mode like myself, I highly sugg-

est you run your updates. The new "Top Sites" feature makes the net 10x easier. The only thing

I really don't get is, why is the dirty Russian's blog on my top sites? I rarely ever visit that blog...

Other than the new Safari.. I caught myself blasting Luther Vandross's fifth album, "Give Me the

Reason." Not only was the album released the same year I was born (1986), I also grew up on

his music. My mom's probably the biggest Luther Vandross fan I'll most likely encounter. I gue-

ss the things our parents bring us up on pass over. The album might find its way onto the blog.
