Two Gents and a lady.

You can find creativity anywhere. You can wash, lather and repeat creativity in the land of Brooklyn. I was at my creative best in Brooklyn. And now I'm living in Virginia, still creative but harder to bring forth to a canvas. So I look back at my brief time in BK. Nostalgia hits me when I'm stressed out. It's one of my defense mechanisms when I'm stressed. I want to be somewhere else but in the present time. I am stressed out. I am attempting to accomplish a pseudo art something or other, be awesome at my real job, hang out with my friends and family AND find time for myself. I've been feeling a little over extended lately. OY!

Any butt....I was part of a trio that one day just decided to make a podcast. Why not?! You're young, you're single and you are living in Brooklyn so open those doors of fun. If fun was a bus I'd be the driver - certified and everything!
I went into this project with two friends of mine - Noah and Warren. They are 2 of 4 red headed men I know and they make me laugh.  I am not a comedian, so I don't have that comedic timing Noah and Warren have. I unintentionally say things and sometimes they are funny and sometimes not so much. Awkward face! So here are 3 cats just wanting to go off, with not much of script and say whatever on the mic. We were called the UNCLE BILLY podcast. Some of our friends have already heard this podcast but I wanted to bring back for a hot sec.  It is record keeping for when I'm an old woman. I'm using a walker and I'm pissing off other drivers for driving too slow.  And one day I'll want to relive my youth for shits and giggles. It's the pictures, the sounds, the art, the writings and the videos that remind us of a time back in the day. I can look back at any of my paintings and remember that moment and why I painted that image. I cherish every crazy moment I've lived in my short life - wouldn't change a damn thing (except maybe an ex or two haha)

I rediscovered Uncle Billy on my iPod while looking for music to listen to at work. I laughed at the insanity and randomness of it all. It put a smile on my face without me knowing it. I sat at my cubicle looking like an insane person trying to work but laughing intermittently. This is why I can't say no to new things and new adventures. I'd miss out on some random and unexpected awesomeness.

Unfortunately, you have to sit thru a commercial and then you can listen to it. I am not a techie so I couldn't make it look nicer.

So listen to it if you have 45 mins to kill. It was Warren, Noah and myself rocking the podcast in Brooklyn in one of our apartments. It was dope time and I would never take it back.
