so here I am at 9:40 AM on a saturday morning working on the overview questionnaire for Summit Venture Strategies so that they can put together my business plan for Tumblur. I’ve been writing the BP myself, but these guys will do a much better job and they even know people with investment capital. What I wouldn’t give to have this and NG be my full time jobs right now. I would work in a my slippers and pajamas and basically just have a great time. I mean, it’s hard work, but it’s work I care about as opposed to the usual junk like my day job (how much can I care about writing loan processing software? honestly?)
every once in a while I think of the songs on Lou Reed and John Cales album “Songs for Drella”, their tribute to Warhol and one of them sticks in my head.. it goes something like:
no matter what I did it never seemed enough
he said I was lazy I said I was young
he’d ask how many songs did you write
I’d written zero, I lied and said ten
you won’t be young forever
you should have written fifteen
it is work
the most important thing is work
it really is amazing how hard you have to work to be successful at being creative. people who think that it’s some sort of path of least resistance are completely wrong. there should just be places that hire people to be creative, make it simpler for all of us…
speaking of creative, I missed Off the Record yesterday, the Radio K local music show. I have no idea if they played Kloey or not. Reed made it sound like it was unlikely when he talked about it on Thursday night. Oh well, it will happen given enough time…
man… tiredness is just sort of washing over me right now. I should probably sleep or something…
