My Surprised Kitty Video (Parody)

maybe you have seen the surprised kitty video on youtube that's been blowing up?
well... this is what happens after a couple drinks before going out.. and a camera lol



here is the original below

so you think you can dance.. with me?

after watching the show for the first time:

wow they are really great dancers! and some of that choreography
was really clever.. like the viennese waltz & the couple fight with table.

i had this 2 week boyfriend at the end of october. he was a prof dancer
and i asked if he would go on that show & give it a shot. cause he is so darn cute. then he asked me
if i would go on american idol... i got his point.

so all and all.. i liked it. i'm so bad at tv though, now what is everyone gonna be watching?
..i do love me some liz lemon!

aj

so you think you can dance?

i can't believe i'm watching it. the season finale. i think it's partly because of my being on an antihistamine. i'm not in the right mind. ha.

last night i got home with my wonton soup & some tylenol severe cold. put on the tv and... zoom. i got sucked in. oh well.. some of the guys are cute.

thats all for now. lol... aj

burritos...(san francisco)

i just finished a burrito at la tortilla & now at peet's coffee stealing some wifi. thought i'd send a lil msg about thurs & fri..

i have two gigs in town (san francisco):

Thurday OCT 1st @ HOTEL UTAH 7:30
&
Friday OCT 2nd @ DOLORES PARK CAFE 8PM

..might i see you while in town?

it's 8:10am from rittenhouse sq park

it's 8:10am in Rittenhouse Square Park, Philadelphia.




I just returned my rental car from touring this past weekend and brought my coffee to the park on my way to the apartment. taking a moment for myself in the bustle of the early city morning, I sit on a bench, (in loving memory of Ralph Caliri) the small plaque says.



7:30am came rather early but was worth it really. got hooked up at rental place cause i ended up with a clunker, (they know me by name there), got a coffee at starbucks while hottie totally smiled at me as I start to pour the milk into my tall to go cup. he smiled again, and asked for my number after a few kind words, and flirtatious banter.

Which brings me to my seat here. SHIT! I just got attacked by 2 squirrels!! Crazy fuckers, they were chasing each other and slaked into the back of my bench. Scared the he'll out of me, almost dropped my phone!

Anyway, as I sit here. watching all these people go by. Heading to their "real jobs", I wonder. Near by a dad races to meet his little son, pedaling a big wheel, by the iron goat statue a mere 40ft away. now he spins him around by both has and laughter comes from the grassy area they now play by. I wish I had a dad like that.



my mind wonders and I think about my friends. Fred, Daniel, Nick, Jenny, and as they battle the early morning clammier heading into work, as they usually do. Especially Fred. He usually gets on my case about the late breakfast hours I keep. Ha.

so I must go start being productive. Leaving for SF on Saturday And I have so much to do. I'll meet today with Dimitri also, for some music playin.

ok well, this is good morning from Rittenhouse Square Park, and my wondering mind.
have a great day :) -aj

hello september.. august recap.. kinda

hellloooo!! happy september 1st. only one more week to wear your white shoes and belts LOL (the labor day rule)

may, macbook, LOST & me

well, well.. it's been so long since my last blog. I mean come on.. it's MAY now! but i have good reason! My dell laptop has been on it's death bed for about 3 months.. last night after it took 20min for a pdf to load.. i just couldn't take it anymore and today.. I BOUGHT A MACBOOK! oh yes. i'm typing on it right now.. i'm not even tied to an outlet.. actually i'm in bed watching LOST (to dramatic for my taste).. but i'm loving the new mac life style. so easy.

I've been really busy the past month. Last weekend we shot my first ever official video right here in philly for my song, on the run. The crew was amazing and all the actors did very well. thanks everyone for a no-drama set lol. the video release will be this summer in conjunction with my birthday @ the Tin Angel. I'm waiting on a confirm from the club.. but august 8th is looking swell.

I also went on a little tour to a couple of my favorite places in PA, NY & DE.
traveled up to wilkes barre, pa for a show @ twist. (stayed in the most disgusting hotel in Scranton, thx priceline) then to olean, ny @ mixers and up to ithaca of course for a killer night at Felicia's. Thanks to everyone who came out and all the new friends i made this trip. I had some down time up there and went to this kick ass farmers market on the weekend, it kinda reminds me of a cruisey outdoor bar, but with fresh local produce, reusable shopping totes and breakfast burritos! oh the ithaca crunch LOL On May 8th i played on the 93.7 WSTW Outdoor concert stage in Wilmington as part of the 89th annual flower market (big deal down in those parts) Had a nice time and even had some funnel cake!


Sooooo... i guess your wondering what i'm up to with music besides the video and touring. Well kids, i'm writing a new record. So many great changes have been happening lately. Some fucked up, some a blessing in disguise.. but all the same this change has been AMAZING for the process and i can't wait for you to hear some of it.
take it easy tho.. ON THE RUN hasn't been out a year yet.. so give me a second or two :)


i'm off for now... have an early morning session at the gym.. WORK IT OUT!
night `aj

earth hour 2009

was inside my apartment for the first half hour of earth hour tonight.

it takes place from 8:30-9:30pm today 3/28/09. I realized that being

great event.

So, at about 9pm I walked out my door and made my way to the walnut
street bridge facing east at the skyline.
Liberty one and two are out along with a few others, I tried to get it
all in this shot on my phone. it was great.
