Pandora Radio has changed me

I now listen to Kanye West. Officially.

But in other news...

We now have a new closing date on our house. And as of right now, August 1st, Lauren and I will never have another roommate again! I've had my share. Some weirdos, and some really cool ones. But nothing compares to not having to worry if someone is using your stuff, not locking the door, being loud, smelling, being drunk, stealing, eating your food, not paying bills on time, leaving electric running, having someone living with them and not kicking in on bills, having shady people over, asking weird favors, and many other things I don't plan on listing here currently.

Goodbye to all that!

Admiral Duke is coming. This should be good! New projects will spawn from this meeting for sure!

I may not be "just a server" for long. I have an opportunity to take something I have been doing as a hobby, and expand it to something I may be able to do for a living. Stay tuned. Can't talk much about this matter, but it sure is exciting!

Videos will be coming soon!

You guys are awesome for taking the time to read this!

Be safe and, and give your momma a kiss...

Restraint

I don't know how much longer i can hold out. Every day, I have an urge to blog about the "do's" and "don'ts" of dining out.

How to talk to and treat the staff of a restaurant.

How to read a menu.

How to properly "take care of" your server.

These are just to name a few of the possible subjects. I really don't want to rant and rave about this issue, but people are just pushing me to do so.

I will say this, just to educate...

Treat others how you want to be treated, and keep this in mind...Most servers make less than minimum wage per hour from their employer. This means, after taxes and such are taken out, the server does NOT get any kind of paycheck week to week. They depend on your tips! In most establishments, servers have to kick out a percentage of their sales to other people in the restaurant(Bussers, Bartenders, Hosts), which means, if you don't tip them, they have to pay to take care of you.

Ok, that is all. Not ranting anymore. Can't wait until we move. Can't wait to create and all that. Yadda yadda yadda...

If you think anyone you know would enjoy reading this, feel free to pass it along.

Be safe.

Going crazy

I miss creating. But the summer crowds are keeping us busy. There will be plenty of time to create in September.
September is THE slowest month of the year for the central Florida economy. It is the best time to cash in all those un-used vacation days.
Last year, we took our first trip to California and Disneyland. This year we will be dedicated to renovating and settling in to our new digs.
An even exchange in my opinion.

BUT...

I haven't been able to get to the parks to shoot video.
&
All my paints and blank Vinylmation are packed up. Also, are all of my sketchbooks.

I have started doing a "random Vinylmation photo of the day", on Twitter. This is helping me get my creative juices flowing, on a small scale. So to speak.

Any way, thanks to all 6 of you guys who read this. Especially with how infrequently I post. But now is the time, now is the best time. Now is the best time to work!!! Thank goodness for this blog and Vinylmation, otherwise, I'd be going INSANE!!!!

Keep it positive and put a little bit of L-O-V-E in everything you do!


Later friends!

Getting antsy

Can't wait to make more Vinylmation.

Can't wait to get back to the parks.

Can't wait to make new videos.

Can't wait for Halloween time.

Can't wait to move in to our new house.

Can't wait for everyone to know the difference between to, two, and too.

Can't wait for our first house guest to come. It feels like I've known him longer than just 15 months!

Can't wait to start broadcasting our radio show!

Can't wait for the new Fantasyland!

Can't wait for the new Star Tours!

Can't wait for Star Wars Vinylmation!!!!

Can't wait for Weird Al at Hard Rock on July 21st!

This is why I can't sleep.

Because I can't wait.

Be safe. Be productive. Be Magic.

Mikey Mayhem.

Magic City Mayhem is closed for refurb

It took longer than anticipated, but it is finally done. I had to wait until I got all my Captain EO footage up, but MCM.com is closed, and nothing new will be posted to YouTube for awhile. We are changing offices and we need time to break down the old and set up the new digs so your patience is appreciated.

We arent going completely dark. You cant still interact via Facebook, and Twitter. But for the most part, the main site is closed. There is no exact date yet of when it will be re-opened. Until further notice, if any videos need to be posted, they will be either on MCM's Facebook page, or Justmikeyhrc's YouTube channel.

Hope everyone is having a great summer! Will have updates regarding our move soon!
