Thank you, everyone, who approached me and said hello tonight. Thank you for making my very first social gathering in a very long time, memorable and amazing ♥️

~~~~~

I am so socially awkward when it comes to meeting new people that I often feel like I'm waiting for my turn to jump into the jump ropes during double-dutch. 

 

I was going to tell you in person that I saw your Facebook friend request, but some kind of way, the site crashed when I clicked it.  I have no idea if it confirmed or not.  Then I didn't know how to get back to where I saw it. 

 

I know it's probably very simple, but I think I kind of panic when it comes to using Facebook due to past experiences that were not so good.

Was nice to see such a great turnout!  Very cool to see so many old friends NOT involving Zoom(!) and meeting a few new peeps that got by me somehow.  Thanks, too, for bearing with the music.  The very carefully assembled tracks that Scary Guy so graciously provided somehow decided not to play... so we were stuck with a little sumpin' I keep tucked in my car for my own amusement.  On the upside, Troy and I shared a love of '80s New Wave, so... maybe not so bad?  Mad luv to you all!

Thinking about making an epic aftermath post. Does anyone do that anymore? 


IDK We could keep using this one I guess.  I wonder if Tron can split all the OT posts into a new thread?

Honestly that was probably better than the stuff I had picked out, and more fun for sure.

I'm sorry I didn't get to speak with everyone as much as I'd have liked to.  Though I did see a lot of old friends which was great, and played a lot of great music.  Unfortunately everyone has jobs (on a Saturday?) and kids so they left early.  Ended up shutting down at 1 AM.  Hopefully they liked us enough to have us back, but I'm also fine with it being a one-off.  I'd be happier if there were less construction.

No it was not :) I was there briefly at the dinner to drop cookies :) 

 

My birthday was the 1st and my husband had made surprise plans for us that I didn’t know about lol. So I wasn’t able to make it. ❤️ 

 

I had planned on coming to the after pop up, but the show and its many encores went on till almost midnight. And I’m old. And at that point just wanted Del-taco, my dog and my bed :)

I'm sorry. Hugs. I think about that alot too, that's definitely why I cannot hold things against her. I wiped my childhood shit away because we only get one mother. I don't care what kind of lifestyle we had or what happened when she's gone I know it's final. We can repair trauma but we can't repair relationships once they leave this world. I cherish everything and focus on the things that are important and positive with my mom. 

I am getting emotional. I apologize. 

I'm glad you were able to move past things and have a relationship with your mother.

 

I tried to with my mother. I recognize she is a product of her trauma, which led to her plethora of problems, but she never should have been a parent. She never took responsibility for things she did, things she allowed to happen to me. I can't look past those things. I haven't spoken to her or my stepfather for over 6 years. She's 69, and he's 78. I know they aren't going to be around much longer. It's an odd feeling.

Oh, my mistake.  Guess there is another Meg I didn't know about.

Well I hope she finds her way here then.  She apparently knows a few of the old City DJs from 20 years ago.  @Chris Rohn got namedropped, and he's still a favorite.  They fired him for playing "too much techno" and now that's all they've been playing for years now.  In fact, they were playing it for years when I made this comment seven years ago! :(

    • ~~~~~ Yeah, thank you for the check-in.   Happy to say it was all a misunderstanding.  But she pulled out her "ghetto" and that's when things went South.  I get very professional minded when I enter into situations like that because when someone starts bring the court into conversations, I'm in court 2 times a year, every year, so don't go there with me because I will get legal all over you.   She did try to change what she thought she might have said, but I had to call her on it because it's all in written text.  Then she apologized and we were able to have a decent conversation.   I know I joke about me talking so much that people don't hear what I say except for keywords that they are looking for, but that is exactly what happened here.  She heard "payment", "money" and "help out".  It was crazy.  I literally had to have the entire conversation all over again, but I definitely condensed it to only address those 3 words.   Things are back on track, but I emphasized that if she every needed clarification for anything, please say something first instead of jumping to conclusions, then questioning that conclusion, then answering that conclusion, then getting upset at the answer and taking it out on someone who doesn't have a clue what the San Juan Hill just happened.   But this is exactly the reason I do everything with a paper trail.

    • I'm glad  that yesterday's day at work is long gone now. There was a very strong unusual energy that I felt, and couldn't get done with the day fast enough. It wasn't  the job at all. I just felt like I really needed to keep my mouth shut, to keep me from getting in situation(s) that probably wouldn't have ended well for me.  
    • You can trust anyone you want.  The only question is whether or not they're deserving of that trust. No risk = no reward.  As such you have to let yourself be vulnerable sometimes and realize that all people will let you down eventually whether it's intentional or not.  The frequency that it happens is what's important.
    • Sorry, I don't check this as often as I should. Anyway document everything (although it sounds like @Trene4000already has been from her post.) It's okay to cry and break down, but not in front of them.  Never give them the satisfaction of seeing you crack.  If anything I'd go out of my way to piss them off, but I don't like being that guy either (and as such I'm not very good at it, except sometimes when I'm not intending to be.) I try to only help those whom deserve it, but that's often hard to judge.  Seeing how someone treats other people is a pretty good indicator of whether or not they're worthy.  Sociopathic narcissistic asshats are very much not worthy. I hope things are going well for you guys.
