CRAZY DAY YESTERDAY


My day yesterday was so crazy that some people won't believe it was real. I woke up at 8 a.m. From 8-12 I worked on the promotions for my reality series coming out this Monday. Myspace took a chunk of the time, but I also had to respond to press and online bloq inquiries (which I don't mind). At 12, I took a break to eat, only being interrupted by a call from a radio station to do an interview (again I don't mind but damn, can a brotha eat? lol). Around 1 o'clock, my sister and I had a conference call regarding the case we are working on together. After that I had to set up a deposition for one of the defendants (we don't have a secretary yet!) and read, re-read, and edit notices and motions that we are sending out. At this point I was so close to going to take a quick nap (since I do work from home) but had to get back on the promotional grind for the reality show. From 4-6 I worked on promoting again, but at 5:30, Viswant (my manager) came in the room panicking and said I needed to record this song "TONIGHT!" for a mixtape promotion we're doing. "Fu*@"! Who can I call? I had to hit up my boy Rahim Beyah and he blessed me with studio time from 6-8. I was supposed to have a meeting with a different client at 7:30 to work on some Intellectual Property matters for him, so I had to call and reschedule for 8:30. After finishing the track, I was walking back to the train and realized I still hadn't finished eating from lunch and hadn't eaten anything all day! So I stopped at Blimpie real quick and got home about 8:17...meeting in 13 minutes! I gotta eat! Of course, my producer, V. Anthony Boreland sends me a new version of the trailer RIGHT when I get home. Me being how I am, I HAD to watch it right then. Long story short, I go into the client meeting (luckily a conference call) still without eating. The call was brief and ended at about 9:05. At 9:07 (as I was opening up my Blimpie) I got a call from another business associate in Ohio to discuss a real estate deal that we're trying to raise money for. Can I get a break???? Finally I'm off the phone at about 9:36. I open my Blimpie and I'm not even able to eat half (I'm sure this has happened to you before)!!. Well, back to the reality show and mixtape promotions...I finally fell asleep with my shoes still on! But hey, this is the life I chose.
Here we go again today...

Like Michael Jordan (and many doctors) said, Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Eat a big Breakfast!

Good luck, I'm sure you'll figure out a way to enjoy some Blimpie for lunch in the future.

I can't wait for the premiere of Legal Hustler! Post it right now please!
