anti-mundane, monday

 4:54 AM

    As I sit here writing this blog entry, I can't help but feel excited about today. The money came through finally on my grandmother's estate, I'm dropping off the closing documents for the house sale in St. Paris, and the process with the estate is finishing up after a couple of snares. I woke up this morning, pre 4am. I smoked a cigarette, made breakfast, having coffee as I type this. I've got a nice playlist I've found that is actually a playlist that has honestly been pure vibes. NP: "Show Me How" by Men I Trust. I highly recommend this artist's sound for any morning, seriously.

    So, what's next for tracktailor? That's a good fucking question. I wish I had the answer, but I know I will find it in the processes and systems I'm setting in place now. I need to find an early morning to early afternoon gig, with weekends off. I want this job schedule because I would be able to bang out jobs for my business venture in the evenings and on the weekends. I will definitely fill you all in on this once it's set in stone. I guess a good goal for this week is to acquire an LLC. 

    When I'm able to today/this week I'm paying off the remainder of the debts I have hanging on my accounts. I'm debating on paying off the rest of my car, but I think I'm going to consult our family's wealth management team on the best action for that. Part of me thinks I've already paid off all the interest on the loan, why not say fuck the bank, and leave money in an account solely for the car payment and let it auto-pay. The wealth management company will definitely know way more about this than me, that's for sure. 

    I'm still working on my health, and fitness. When I'm able to get a full day of disc in, I'm usually able to bang out around 20k+ steps. I need to find a place around here to walk in the morning to get the steps in when I'm not playing disc. 

    After I drop off the check at the bank this morning and open a savings account, I have to take a document that's being notarized this AM to Zanesville at some point. The drive is about an hour and half. I always enjoy decently long car rides alone- I'm able to curate some really good music depending on what sounds I'm listening to. 

    I plan on upgrading my FL Studio subscription to the "All plugins" edition sometime this week and really start pouring into the DAW. I've started a drum and bass track that I think has a ton of potential especially with it being my first track. I'm proud. 

    Met our next door neighbor yesterday. Young cat, like 23. Owns the home next to us, and he seems like a pretty cool dude. Homie plays COD, and said he would possibly get out on the disc golf course with me, so the guys a fucking straight shooter if you ask me haha


here's a cool quote I composed some year back, I think I'm the first to quote it hopefully


solemnly, do soothsayers seek solace, in servitude

"rarely, do people who can see the future look for comfort in serving other people's will"



issa me,

monday, again.

 10:29AM     Since I've lasted posted, things have been moving. As I type this, I'm sipping coffee at a diner in Marietta, waiting on a steak breakfast that I just ordered. The last time I posted it was before the Holiday that just passed. The holiday treated me well, I saw friends and played a ton of disc golf. Yesterday I played 49 holes.      Still searching for a job. I am at a loss for words on what to do in terms of the job agency and the job they offered me. It's been about a month and they still haven't made a decision, or found a job for me. It's hard to stay in my "mode" of feeling good and working towards my goals, when no one else believes in you, your work  ethic, and what you can do for them.      My mother's birthday is tomorrow. I will admit, there were times in my mental health spat, this day would pass and I would remember weeks later that her birthday was already on a past date. I'm happy I'm finally, FINALLY, feeling like I&

boredom

 6:00PM     Today was a successful day in a couple aspects, and the day is still yet to finish.  I had the second interview for a sales position and a premium tent and tiny home company in Marietta. The interview was solid. I killed it. I am confident that I will receive an offer Friday, or Monday at the latest. The interviewer was the head of sales with the company, and he seemed to receive everything I put out there very well. I'm glad I finally have some confidence with the job outlook out here. Shit is seriously depressing, well has been, for quite some time.       The DJ world is definitely not all glitz and glamour as it's sometimes portrayed as. It's empty rooms, bombing sets, forgetting equipment, the list could go on in all the "bad" parts of disc jockeying. I read today that you aren't a real DJ unless you've thought about giving up a couple times. That statement is mostly true, as it isn't an easy career path. The career path part is what ma

humble beginnings

10:02 PM     I've decided to finally start a blog,  specifically involving my life as an artist. On the surface, this is a daunting task to me. I'm hoping that this will be a great outlet, a way to measure and record progress, and an accountability constraint. It is my aim to become more  efficient and effective with my time within the realm of my music and content revolving around the sound.      For those who haven't been around, or I haven't caught up on my life- I moved back to Ohio on the 22nd of May, and it has so revitalizing to my soul.  In the PNW, I felt like I was constantly "wearing a mask" or changing myself like a chameleon to better suit the environment. When I came back to the Ohio valley, I immediately knew this place is what had been missing from my life. This is the  place where I didn't have to change who I was to fit in. This is the place where I standout for eximplary reasons. This is the place I call home.      The PNW was a dark pla
