lol!
true story, though.
i had this coupon for some phone-a-psychic thing so i said what the hey and used it. i like that kinda stuff. i actually thought this woman was cool. very matter-of-fact and actually pretty spot on regarding 3 or 4 very specific things. anyhow, i had a pretty unremarkable reading, so i asked what my musical future holds and she goes, 'uh. nothing special, really. you have talent but it's hard work and you don't have the time to dedicate yourself to that.' and i'm like, 'damn, sistah--ya hadda be that straight-up about it?!'
it did kinda hit home, though. not in a terrible way, but recognizing the reality of things is always smart. the good news is i like not having that pressure of trying to 'do' something with my drumming. it makes me more excited to actually play and practice. i definitely still want to get with other players and i would love to record, but i'm not thinking along the lines of sustaining myself as a drummer or sacrificing myself for a band/music sitch right now. [though getting my chops up to teaching level would be sweet, in case i go postal on corporate america and leave the working world as i know it]. this might all change as i get to the next level, but right now i'm enjoying just learning more.
but yah--pretty dullso reading. she also told me i was dehydrated, needed to get my thyroid checked and had no man in my future.
for this, i give up my credit card number? oy!
