Good Stress?

I have alot going on today but decided it was time to start blogging since I remembered how helpful it was to journal when I was a kid. I'm pretty stressed out over alot of different things in my life involving friends, career choices, money and family issues but for the most part I do my best to keep my head above water and a smile on my face as well as others. I made a very real decision when I was around the age of 12 to laugh and make others laugh for the sole purpose of masking the depression and loneliness I felt. 20 years later, I'm doing the exact same thing.

I'm one of those guys. 32, living at home, career-minded but not goal-oriented, unless something really gets in my brain creatively and then I'll do everything in my power to make it happen. What do I do, you ask? Its complicated. lol... I am a singer, songwriter, actor, playwright, producer, director, designer, choreographer and for the last 4 years...freelance photographer. Told ya it was complicated. Among other things, I've been a receptionist, kitchenware salesman and my favorite, Singing Telegram Deliverer.

I love being a creative person. I love being a dramatic person. You know, I actually had someone I dated get upset and tell me that when they were having a discussion with me, it felt like they were in a movie. I was like, "that's awesome!" lol. They weren't so thrilled.

Anyway, What do I have going on right now? Well, I'm in the process of working with several photography clients and I'm working on their shots. I'm also working with up-and-coming music sensation, Wendy Taylor, on her new EP and some concerts coming up this year. Officially, I'm one of her Vocal Producers. Unofficially, I'm her best friend. lol... Check out her music at www.myspace.com/newmusicstandard

Tonight, my producer, Alan Lett and I, will be working on tweaks for her new ballad. Should be good. Looking forward to it. For now, I need a Venti Chai Tea Latte on ice with an energy shot and a lemon tart or one of Leslee's awesome bacon, egg n' cheese sandwiches.
