My daughter was born last week on December 14th at 7:30 a.m. at St. David’s hospital. She weighed in at 7 pounds and 5 oz.
Here are some pictures of her:
This week when I checked the mail I received back a package that I had sent to Germany two months earlier! I had sent a CD to Bernhard who is an artist in Germany who I did a remix for and I put it on my latest CD “Keeping It Salty” I had checked with him several times and he said he had not received it. So eventually I sent him another CD to a different address and he received that one. So it’s fun that I sent a package all the way across the globe to Germany and now I have it back here.
This CD never made it to Bernhard
This weekend was a busy one. Saturday morning a group of my friends and I did a 2 mile walk for Alzheimer’s disease which took about 45 minutes. After that we went home and had lunch and then I went to go DJ a special needs ministry dance at Bethany United Methodist Church from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. It was a dress-up Halloween kind of dance and it was fun to see the costumes of the attendees. I played a lot of fun Halloween music, including Thriller, Ghostbusters, People Purple Eater, and Monster Mash along with a lot of classic fun songs like Girls Just Want to Have Fun, Boot Scooting Boogie, and The Chicken Dance. It was a fun 2 hours of dance music and was the highlight of my weekend.
In addition, I had to work that night starting at 10:30 p.m. You might be wondering what do you go into work at 10:30 p.m. for. Well I went in to work to tear down a sound system that we had setup for a band for the National Black Forum for Public Administrators that night. Apparently somebody had conflicting information because we were told the band was done at 10:30 p.m. but when we got there the band was not done. They played till 10:45 p.m. and took a 45 minute break and then proceeded to play again at 11:30 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. People were leaving and were wishing us a good night and my boss commented well it’s really too late to have a good night it’s kind of like a good morning. So needless to say we ended up packing up the sound system and drove it back to City Hall and didn’t get done until 2:45 a.m. in the morning. What a night!
Sunday morning I went to church at Bethany United Methodist Church and came home for lunch. After lunch Christy (my wife) and I had some re-organizing to do. We reorganized and reallocated some closet space to make room for the new baby due in December. That involved throwing some old stuff away and going through some old things. We got ride of some junk, I am going to make a run to Salvation army tomorrow and we moved some other things around.
I then took a nap and then we went over to Christy’s Dad to have spagetti and meatballs for dinner. Now I am home and I am posting a blog about it. Hope you all had a great weekend too.
So as some of you know I had my CD release party this weekend on Saturday. It was a good turn out and I definitely had fun and felt the love from all the people that showed up.
You know I sent out the evite and I was hoping to see some people that said they would come and but then they didn’t and then some other people who said they wouldn’t or might not come came so it was fun to see who came out for the party.
I didn’t know Alex North was so good at ping pong!! I am not bad but I was out of practice and he beat me three straight games. I used to have a ping pong table when I was in high school and I got quite good but Alex must have been practicing in his spare time or something.
In addition I wanted to announce that my CD is available for purchase online now through CD Baby!

I also had fun on Saturday morning playing with power tools and helping fix the parking lot stoppers at Bethany UMC.
Hope you had a good weekend too!
I stopped by Wendy’s the other morning to see if they had a sausage biscuit to eat. They did so I ordered my sausage biscuit paid the man at the window, picked up my order and drove off.
When I opened up the heavy bag (thinking to myself this is a one BIG breakfast sausage biscuit) I found one breakfast taco and another type of biscuit with bacon and cheese on it. I continue on in my car sampling my new food items. I didn’t like them as much as I would have the sausage biscuit as I obviously had the wrong order but it was really tasty.
Yeah I was one of the three winners of the Missle Command Remix contest….

The artwork of all things is taking the most time to get down and right. I am was generally happy with it but then this last go around they changed some things and/or duplicated some text that didn’t need to be duplicated. The face of the CD didn’t look right either. Needless to say the artwork is holding up the process but I hope I really hope that today I can sign off on it and have it done by the end of this week but as you can see I have been saying that for a while now.
In other news I am meeting with Chuck from http://www.one21music.com to talk about Christian Electronica music. We are meeting this morning over some Rudy’s breakfast tacos for like 30 minutes before I have to go to work. It should be interesting.
This morning I got up, let the dog out, then met 4 friends at Rudy’s for breakfast tacos. After enjoying breakfast tacos I went rollerblading with Brian for about an hour. It’s been a good morning so far.
