Bright and Early Kiki

I’m living a very disciplined life these days. I’m a procrastinator so this is soooo not my wheelhouse. LOL. I’m diggin’ it though. It makes me feel organized. I just have a lot to get done, so I actually can’t afford to procrastinate.

Don’t know how I missed this Alix Perez mix. It says it’s 2 months old. Stellar as usual. 😍

A Year Older Kiki

KikiLeave a comment

It’s my birthday today. I’m 45.

I’ve never been a person that cared about getting older, and I still don’t. But, 45 does sound old as hell. 😂

I’m missing my dad today. His birthday calls were always so sweet. 💜

I love those days when Spotify just gets you. I’ve been learning how to use Storyline to create learning objects, and you know how learning any program goes; I spent like 5 hours zoning out to dnb and trying my damndest to get all my triggers, layers, hotspots etc to work. The radio station based of my playlist was straight 🔥🔥🔥. Heard a bunch of “new to me” tunes.

I know nothing about Italian dnb. This is my first timing hearing these guys and I loved the whole EP.

I know who In:Most is, but didn’t really start listening to their stuff until last year. Found this old tune from 2017 and I’m loving it.

I also know of Athena. Hadn’t heard this track before though. It came out earlier this year. Such a pretty tune.

Sitting Up in My Room Kiki

Man I used luuuuuuuuvv this Brandy song when I was in high school.

I’ve said it before, Brandy and dnb are a match made in Heaven. So many great dnb tunes with her vocals. 🥰

I also really love this Intelligent Manners tune that has the vocal from “Almost Doesn’t Count”.

This wasn’t supposed to be a Brandy tribute post. LOL. I was just thinking about how it’s a good thing I like my bedroom, cuz all I do is sit up in it doing work — and that song popped in my head. I wasn’t even listening to any Brandy tunes. 😂

Currently vibing to Dan Guidance and Echo Motion.

Onward & Upward Kiki

I know it’s annoying when people always talk about how busy there are, so I won’t whinge about it.

I’m just trying to get myself sorted to head to London for 6 weeks. I need to go sort out our house and tie up some loose ends with my father’s estate.

The homie Submorphics will be playing in London while I’m there, so I’m definitely excited to have a mini Chicago Reunion with him and Kathy. ❤

Currently listening to his end of summer mix.

Desert Wedding Kiki

KikiLeave a comment

I went to not one, but two desert weddings! One in Taos and one in Joshua Tree. Did some sightseeing, drank some tiki drinks and lost money at the casino. Not a lot though because I’m aware of what rubbish luck I have and only allotted myself a very small amount of money. 😂

Both weddings were lovely and I’m so happy for my friends. I had to do a shit ton of work just to be able to go, but it was worth it. I’m back and spending the day winding down in preparation to go back to work.

Listening to a little Lenzman.

That emoji is my current mental state. I’m not sad, I’m just trying to make it through the day. I think since I booked my ticket and know that I’ll be headed to London soon, anxiety wants to kick it with me all damn day and I’m like “Okay, I guess you can come.”

Anyway, I’m listening to a Bank mix and lesson planning and he played this amazing oldie.

I haven’t listened to this track in ages. Such a lovely tune. Hope you enjoy hearing it as much as I did.

I‘ve always loved that moment in Anchorman when Ron Burgundy is like “I’m in a glass case of emotion!” That’s how my week has been. I’m all over the bloody place. My whole routine has been turned upside down and I’ve been thrown a bunch of curve balls, and I probably could be handling it a bit better… but what to do. LOL.

This Makoto and Ruth Royall tune is everything I need today. So joy inducing and bouncy. 🥰🥰🥰
