Austin’s "The Guest" & Adam!!!

Isn’t technology grand?  (when it works…) I was looking up random stuff and found some of my friends’ info online, so I HAVE to brag!! I have to admit that in high school I LOVED alt rock!! Well, of course, I dated the COOLEST and most talented guitarist in the universe!!  His name? Jonathan Dubois. Well, at the CAC gig last week Cliff & Jeff from Reaction (…gotta find their website) asked about bands I knew in Austin. Well of course The Guest came up and he freaked and said, “Yeah! We’ve filmed them a couple of times!” So I googled and found their website!! I am SO proud of them!! Jonathan and Matt and I graduated high school together…man do we ever have stories! (But I’ll never tell!)  Honestly, Jonathan IS really talented…he was then and he STILL is!! Kisses to you babe!! (Matt you are too!!)

 

ANOTHER one? Well, I actually missed his call tonight! Sorry, Adam! (The Adam I usually talk about…and to for that matter)  I have to brag and give a link to his IMDB site!  – I’ll talk to ya later, though! 😉

 

Without friends, life would not be!

Man was I ever HACKED OFF yesterday!!!!

Something happened yesterday that really hacked me off!! Okay, so I’ve had some issue with my cover tunes on the Podsafe Network. All of that over and done I started putting original material on. Well, I got an email from C.C. (from the PMN) saying that a guy had emailed him saying that he was “catching up” on his missed podcasts and saw that I (he even spelled my name wrong…) sang a Christmas song that Diana Ross did in the 60’s and gave the names of the writers. HELLO?? Well, luckily mom, who usually filters my website email, intercepted and cleared up the matter. The song that she (Diana Ross) sang was not even named the same nor were the lyrics or melody anything like that one I wrote! So, C.C. was just making sure that he didn’t need to take it off the PMN. Man that ripped me! This guy, who hadn’t even listened to the podcast accused me of something I think is foul, stealing a song! When I found out about it, I emailed C.C. and expressed my anger toward the dude…not C.C., I understand where he’s coming from…and I was quite miffed! C.C. responded by saying that he was going to “straighten his…butt…out!” Okay, he didn’t say butt, BUT you get the idea!! ARG!! I’m over it now, but I felt my integrity was at stake! And honestly…all the money in the world can not buy you good integrity and that is something I hold dear! I’m not perfect, but I hate it when people…because of…whatever…deliberately try to hurt someone like that. Maybe the guy was just reacting, but even so, check your facts first, man!!!!! Oye!!!

mySpace……es……..

 This is SO random!! Okay so I accidentally have 2 mySpaces. ARG!! A friend of mine (hey Wayne Devlin!!) said that it would be a great idea for me to have a mySpace.  So I signed up accidentally for the personal space…not the music one…and then realized that it WAS the music one only AFTER I created one for Chris and I together! ARG!!!

 

Here they are:

 

Karmyn:



Check me out!

Karmyn & Chris:



Check me out!

Trying to figure out how this blog and mySpace works has been a chore. Wayne D. has had to help me A LOT!! 🙂

Going to bed now!!


One more thing: 
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family Wayne G. (different from Wayne mentioned above!) I love you guys!!

delayed reaction, but….A-N-D-Y!!! Plus some music info…

Well, if you've been keeping up with the Open, you know that Andy has…lost. 😦 So the match I want to see next? Roger and David! If, of course, Roger wins…hee, hee! Way to go Tommy Haas!!! I love to see Fed sweat! My mom even got into that match!! (It's a little…unexciting to read about it online and then watch. Live is SO much better!!) (BTW – Tommy SO beat Fed a couple of years ago…quite easily in fact! Has Federer REALLY sold his soul to the devil?? I wonder!!)

Temple this weekend and I'm excited! Bill has me pulling out some of my old stuff. I liked the old stuff when I was in Junior High which was weird. 🙂 It should be interesting! Maybe pictures…I don’t know. Same outfits, so…why? No need!

VERY excited also about a feature thingy! I'm going to be featured on 4 different radio stations in the month of February! YEAH!! It was an invite too! VERY honored!! Made a banner up top the blog!

Also, spent awhile on the site to clean it up a bit! And shuffle things around. And about that time I got this email from a dude named Mike. So he emails and lets me know how irritated he was about my music blaring on the album page…the crazy thing is I SO agree! It IS irritating!! So I changed it. (I was going to anyway. And no, Mike, you’re right, it was NOT what I had intended! ) There's a cool site that has all of the song clips (MP3Tunes) with out having to download anything. So I put a link there. The DEMO.mp3 isn't broken. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it. I just may have it available to place elsewhere.

Blah, blah, blah…Today was supposed to be the most depressing day of the year! I wasn’t depressed, just blah! BLAH!

Ah, well, must pack…but first…iPod time! It's SUCH a brain release! 🙂 And God knows I need it today!!!!!!

quick Australian Open thoughts…

I was a little bummed when Agassi and Nadal had to pull out because of injuries. Now it’s even more interesting…both Williams’s sisters are out, Blake is out; and WHOA, Hewitt is out. Hmmmm…no comment.
