I missed my anniversary again! Eleven years ago on May 3rd I quit my day job to be a full-time DJ. I had actually dropped to part-time at my day job more than a decade earlier because DJ life was so hectic, but I had held on to the day job (Shout out to Powell’s Books workers currently fighting for a living wage!) because it was the only semblance of financial stability in my life. I’ve been broke and desperate ever since, but I’ve never once looked for a job, so I guess I find being broke and desperate preferable to working for someone else. Shout out to everyone trying to live a life on their terms. https://www.instagram.com/p/Cr1V9D1PbNg/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I spent some time in the kitchen cooking up some palak masoor dal served with red matta rice from @ridhidcruz. Dal meditation practice. https://www.instagram.com/p/CrzEM8Lv-xM/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

If you’re ever in Tigard and you need a 24-hour taqueria . . . You can even order a “veggie meat” substitute in all dishes. (Tastes like ground sausage.) (at Tigard, Oregon) https://www.instagram.com/p/CrqyKmUJfYn/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

In five decades I managed to avoid ever taking on a paint-stripping project before. I’m partway through this one and fairly convinced it will be my last. https://www.instagram.com/p/CrkL55NLMya/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
