Music Tech Co. Investments 2011
digital music news posted a list they titled “Nearly $400 Million Has Been Invested In Music Startups This Year…” It’s a great list and I was pretty floored at some of the amounts. The thing that was missing for me from this list was info on the companies, what they were doing with the money,...
I’m Not a Flake, I’m a Scanner
I’ve actually never been called a flake. I’m a responsible person and I come through for people. But, I feel like I’m a flake. Over the past year or so I’ve noticed that the things I’m actively working on is increasing. I bounce from one thing to the next depending on my current state of...
I Want My Family Home Back
I have hit a brick wall, and the only way that I know to get past the hurt and hateful feelings towards my Dad is to write about them. I don’t care who reads this, I just want people to read what I have to say and walk away promising themselves and their family members...
The Invisible Monster in Japan
For the last couple of nights I haven’t been sleeping very well. I keep waking up from nightmares about my son, Ripley getting really sick. You might think that is just a normal parental worry and I’ll get over it. Imagine for a second then it’s not just a bad dream, that it’s a reality....
Ripley is One Year Old!
My little dude, Ripley Ossm Bonner, turned one today. ONE! For the past 365 days I have spent every single one of them with this little human bean. I’d like to say I know him better than anyone else, but every day is new and he is changing so much that sometimes I don’t feel...
Project: “We Are The Doorways” Fan Submission
I have a few projects on the go, and one of them is releasing today. I came on the tail end of this one, but I hope that over time it makes a great impact. Back when I was working at Topspin, I worked with the very talented RJ Krohn, better know to you as...
Some things are better left unsaid
After my Dad died, I learned things that I would rather not have. People coming out of the woodwork with their stories and what not. I know that I’m an adult and I’m his eldest child, but even so, it would be nice if people would bite their tongues. Why do people find it necessary...
Out of My Freaking Head
For the past couple of months, but especially this past month, I felt like I was not myself. I literally felt out of my skin. I was able to wake up and eat and look after my son, but I was very confused and disoriented most of the time. I am a very capable person...
Map of My 2011 Resolutions
I was thinking more about my 2011 Resolutions or INTENTIONS and I realized that they are all connected in some way. Someone on my Facebook said he thought I had too many things on my list and seemed to be skeptical about whether I can actually accomplish them. To be honest, I thought a lot...
Looking back at 2010
I figured I should take a little peek back at 2010 because it went really fast and I was curious if I actually accomplished any of my resolutions and what not. I graded myself on each resolution. Overall I am giving myself an A because you know what? I freaking had a kid and traveled...
2011 Resolutions
I usually like to write down my goals because I read somewhere that if you write them down or say them out loud you have a greater chance of actually achieving them. I also read that you need to write down realistic goals – I ‘m not sure what that means because I also read...
Anne Frank’s Words of Comfort
From Anne Frank’s Diary of a Young Girl. The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely, or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quiet, alone with the heavens, nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be and that God wishes to see...
I’m here:
