Raver Kiki Forever

KikiLeave a comment

Life is busy. *sigh*  I owe you a proper lengthy post soon.

In the meantime, I hope you get as much enjoyment from putting this tune back in rotation as I did. 

Having listened to dnb for over 25 years, it’s very second nature to me to just have the music on in the background.  I don’t always get the urge to brock out and shake my caboose to each track.  There are a couple of tunes though, where I’ll totally let loose like I did in my speaker hugging days, and this remix is def one of them.  I’m sure the person who was driving alongside me on the 101 when iTunes picked this one in the shuffle, thought I was absolutely bonkers, but I did get a good car dance out of it. 

p.s. I love the original too.

Versatility

DnB you are so versatile.  I zone out to you when I’m planning a bunch of lessons and,  I zone out to you when I know I have no intention of planning said lessons.  This morning it’s the latter.

Thanks Juju for the reminder, I am now in full-blown Atlantic Connection mode.

It’s gorgeous outside this a.m. and I’m only planning on listening to tunes from 2006 – 2007 today. 🙂

Kiki’s Travels

KikiLeave a comment

My brother is letting me take his car to Madison.  They don’t want to leave it sitting at their house all week as they too have gone away.  Not only did he give me gas money but he also has an I-Pass.  Talk about win. 🙂

Usually it’s just me and my mum for Thanksgiving but this time we have 9 other people joining us.  I come from a big family so I’m always down for big family style dos.

I plan on kickin it hard this week.  Not because I’ve been doing anything overly strenuous but merely because I feel like it.  Staycations are kinda where it’s at for me these days. 😉

Old Lady Kiki

I keep trying to come up with more ways to say that I’m geriatric.  There’s not really that many ways!  My weekend was filled with good food, good friends and lot of napping/lazing around the apartment.

Friday I went to lunch with Jesus and Shannon at this really cute place in Lincoln Square.  Really good food.  Friday night… I really did have good intentions.   I was going to gallivant across town and once my eyes started closing I admitted defeat and told my friends I would be staying home.  I think my disappointment is not actually with becoming geriatric, it’s the lack of disappointment with the transformation.  LOL.  I don’t mind staying home!  If you told me all I could do for the rest of my life starting today was to be surrounded by the company of my friends and eat amazing meals I wouldn’t even care.  I guess I didn’t think I would be hanging up my hat at 33.  And yes I’m aware that my bday is still 4 weeks away but I’m already 33 as far as I’m concerned.

I could continue with the rest of the weekend but it’s kind of the same deal so I’ll just do a quick summary.  Saturday, brunch with Ron and Rocko, loads of yummy breakfast items, good company, Small Bar with my dnb peeps, good beer, kicking it with Melissa.  Sunday, I stuffed my face at Daniela’s parents’ house to the point of feeling sick.  I couldn’t help it.  It was just too yummy.

Anyways, here we are, it’s Monday and surprisingly it seemed like everyone did most of their bbqing over the weekend.  The highlight of my Monday is Pipeline coming to fix my laptop keyboard so I don’t have to use the external one anymore.  Woot.  Hopefully all you people that actually work will enjoy your day off. 😉

Tunes:
Ed Oberon – Change Everything

Today’s Oldie:
Total Science – Taxman (Spirit Remix) – Advanced Recordings 2002
This is one of my fave records.  Really good remix.  Total party tune.  ❤

Doddi always finds the good ones.  I’m a new Quantrek fan.  Looking forward to the mix.
