Early Christmas present....

Two years later...... I get to do my show again. I totally want to revamp it though. I have learned alot in the last two years to help me do this. I don't want to do the 'classic' night show.... I want to do something new for the time slot. I have a lot of planning to start on.

If anyone who reads this has any suggestions, leave a comment...

Stay-cation.

My vacations are pretty much heading home to Wichita, chillen, and seeing friends and family. Not this time. Money is tight right now. Gas was killin me, then moving, I just haven't bounced back.

So it's my first stay-cation. Staying home. I thought about heading to Tampa, or somewhere like that, but I dont think I would have enough to get a hotel and gas and food. I might head to West Palm Beach and hang out with some friends there. I dont know.

Weekend of productivity.

I was on a mission the weekend. To get ish done. I fixed my car, clean and did laundry, got back to the gym, and bathed my dog.

Now, to some, that doesn't sound like alot. To me, it is. I needed to get my locks on my car fix for some time. One had fell inside the door, and was screwing up my window when it rolled up and down. The other was my trunk. I am not one to enjoy working on cars. I hate it, but I have grown up around it all my life. My mom worked on cars, my family on my dad's side worked on cars, and when I lived with my aunt and uncle on the farm, we had to fix our own stuff. So I finally took on the task of taking apart my passenger side door. Something I have been dreading for weeks. Am I gonna break any clips that holds the panel on? Did someone try to break into my car and punched the lock through? Does the lock still work. Turns out, it worked fine. A bolt had came lose and fell out. Simple enough. and the trunk was just putting a bracket back on. Done in 30 min.

Cleaning and laundry and my dog where all just tedious tasks.

Oh, Finally had time to have Comcast hook up cable and internet! DVR is my new toy. Can't wait to get cought up on Chuck, How I Met Your Mother, and other show.

Alright. That's all for today.

Swagger like meeeeeeeee.

Life sometimes is good, and sometimes bad. I am used to it. I go up on the rollercoaster, and plummet down faster than the stock exchange. I hasn't killed me yet, so I guess it's going good.

Sometimes I wonder why things go bad. Why is it that every December is a 'bad' month for me? I don't know how this December will go, but the end of November was kinda crazy.

Then I look back at what I came from.....and all that crap that happens in December, really doesn't compare.

I have came from crap, and really life is GREAT. I really can't complain that much. Ehhh money gets tight, then I fix it.

Something to make you laugh.


So as the title of this blog states... No one in my apartment has a swagger like meeee.

PS, a parody video is coming soon.

New Apartment

So for the first time in 6 years, I have MY apartment. No roomates! It's nice. I like it. I have always had a roomate except for the year 2002. Uhhhh, yea, awesome. Plus, they place is rad. It's got a washer and dryer in the damn thing. No more getting my clothes jacked at the complex laundry mat.

My dog Izzy isn't to sure about it. She has to be on a leash when she goes outside now. Before she could go out, sniff around, not be bothered, explore the woods in the back. Poor girl.

Now the only worry, is cash. When it's a $300 deposit for my dog, a $200 dollar deposit for starting utilities, $570 security deposit, $570 first months rent, $200 in Application fee's, $300 car payment, cell phone, insurance, credit card bills, and all that ish, it's starts to add up for one month.

Just have to watch my spending this next two weeks.

More later.

Thanks.... and Turkey Day!

So here I am again, away from family, close friends, and loved ones, and it's Turkey day. I am what you would call a 'transient'. My name is Bradly. I am the guy who goes by many names though. BJ, Brad, Kracker, Spoon are just a few. Which do I prefer you ask? I really don't care. They are all names from different times of my life. For the Blog, I will call myself Spoon.I am a radio Dj. It's a career that makes you move to get ahead sometimes. I wouldn't change it for the world. I was maybe in 7th grade when I got the Radio 'bug'. I would record DJ's off the radio, and then listen to it over and over again. I loved the goodnight line with Greg 'The Hitman' Williams. Fast forward to me on the College radio station at Butler County Community College. Man was it addictive. Well, College was cool, but it cost me way to much money. I had to get a real job again and pay bills. So I got a job at Aarons Lease and Purchase(rent to own). That's how I got into REAL radio. I know, Aarons got me into Radio??? How could that be you ask?? The night guy(Sean Kelly), from 107.3 KKRD came into my store, we chatted, I sold him a TV, gave him a good deal, and told him to help me get back into radio. A couple of months go by, we throw a party at our house, Sean shows up. I tell him again that I want in, I'll do whatever. He finally lets me do stupid stuff on his show. That's how I got back into radio and how I am where I am today.

So after seven years of radio, nine radio station, well over 20,000 miles moved, I am here in Jacksonville, Florida. The past two years here have been great! Love it. I have met some great people, done some great things, and it's really been a blast-e-blast.

The only thing that sucks is holidays. Really, my family hasn't been all that festive, but my friends all invite me to thier parents houses, or I got to the Cotter family's dinners. I have great friends who I love dearly, and I miss them. Sometimes I think I should just get a 'real' job and move back home. Then I have those amazing radio days that makes me think I am nuts.

It's time to jump on the air. If you want, comment. If not, cool. Hopefully I will have some bomb ass stories to post up here, and just random ish.
