A Role In The Music Industry – Mad Chaos: May 19, 1998

Views: 325

Here I am again, two days after my last entry and I have a fair bit of news to add to this entry as I watch ‘Sally Jessie Raphael’ and get ready to eat my food.

Strenuous Activity Before Sleep

Sunday night Lyssa came over after having a roast with her mum.  I asked her to bring me some leftovers (jokingly) but she didn’t.  I wasn’t too disappointed.  Lyssa and I watched some television.  After a while we started having sexual thoughts in our heads.  

It wasn’t too long after that I had a shower and then came back into a darkened room with Lyssa lying on the ground, only a blanket covering her body.  I shan’t say too much about what happened seeming it is close to the start of this entry, but I will say it was great and twofold.

Ending all that strenuous activity, Lyssa and I viewed some television again before she drifted off to sleep.  I lay awake watching television until late in the night.  Seeing Lyssa sleeping so comfortably on her pillow, looking at her face made me happy that I was lucky enough to have someone by my side.  With this feeling, I turned the television off and then lay next to Lyssa.  

For most of the night we were sleeping Lyssa would come lie on my shoulder with her arms around my body before we fell asleep.  Sunday night I kept thinking to myself how lucky I was to have Lyssa and what would happen when she was gone in a couple of months?  How would I feel then?

Send Lyssa To The Bus Stop

Monday morning came and Lyssa got ready for college while I had a little sleep.  When she came back from her shower I jumped up and made her some breakfast and helped her get ready.  When it was time to leave I walked her to the bus stop.  I was there until the bus arrived, giving her a kiss before she left.  We made plans for me to meet her in Campbelltown when she was finished.

Book A New Recording Studio

Coming back home I didn’t go back to sleep.  I thought I would stay awake for the day and started to play the computer.  

A couple of hours passed and I started calling different Recording Studios to find the place where I will record the voices.  Calling around I also found in the same business, a place where I can burn and edit my songs on a CD.  The business that I will be dealing with now after I have finished my instrumental is in Minto and the Recording Studio is called “The Fusion Factory”.

Using The Library Internet

As the day passed by it was time for me to leave for Campbelltown.  Walking there in some strong winds and a couple of droplets of rain I made my way to the Library.  Booking the computer in half an hour I then made my way to Sanity.  I listened to a CD before heading back.  

I only had a couple of minutes on the library computer before I headed to meet Lyssa.  With ‘Roger Troutman’ in my mind (a keyboardist for Keith Sweat who does plenty of Vocording songs), I looked for things on ‘Music Central’ about him, but didn’t find a thing.

Sketch Lyssa At My House

Heading for Campbelltown Station I walked up to Lyssa sitting down on the seats.  Before giving her a kiss she spotted our bus drive past us.  I ran before it left.  When I caught up to the bus taking its last passenger I told him to wait for a couple of seconds as I had seen Lyssa hurriedly walking.  As she came on the bus she paid for the both of us, and then we sat down.  It was funny how the bus driver was still there a couple of minutes later waiting for some more passengers.  We didn’t have to run.

Catching a bus to my house we walked into my room hungry.  Making Lyssa and I some food, we enjoyed it while watching some television.  When Lyssa and I are at my house we are pretty much isolated from friends.  Because Lyssa is at my house she doesn’t receive calls from her friends (she used to every now and again), and I rarely get a friendly call at my house.  People are just busy.

For the rest of the night Lyssa and I were watching television, all the soapies and sitcoms.  Lyssa then picked up a pencil and started drawing a picture.  At first it was only an eye, then another and then an outline of a face.  Before you knew it, she had drawn what had looked like a picture of herself.  It was scratchy but it was a good drawing.  

With that in my head I thought I would pick up the same pencil after Lyssa and draw her as she sat there inking her drawing.  There I sat on the waterbed drawing Lyssa as great as I could.  In a couple of minutes I was ready.  Showing it to Lyssa she was surprised as how it did resemble her.  I was slightly surprised myself at the drawing I had also made.

Problems In Our Sex Life

After that Lyssa and I tried to set the mood, but in the middle of the mood we found that from last night, Lyssa was too sore to try again.  We were right into the groove and then had to stop because it was uncomfortable for the both of us.  Because of the discussion and fight we had a couple of days ago regarding sexual favors, I thought Lyssa would at least offer to do something for me so I wouldn’t have an urge for a couple of day,s but she didn’t.  

Now I definitely know she doesn’t like oral.  It’s probably nothing against me since we have been orally active for a while now but she is probably scared of something regarding that and that’s why she doesn’t like doing it.  It’s like I was watching “Sex Life” last night, she might have a phobia about it.

Since the beginning of time, it has been very rare for Lyssa to be spontaneous in sexuality.  Myself, I like to be spontaneous.  My next step she would have no clue what I’m about to do.  With Lyssa, it’s me that makes the moves, and if I want something done then I ask.  As time has gone by though, Lyssa has opened up more in sexuality and has done things that she normally wouldn’t do, but until the end of our relationship, she will probably always be scared of oral.

Lyssa went to sleep after our little encounter last night.  Because once again it was too early for me to sleep I lay awake watching television.  I even turned the computer on and played a game for half an hour before I even thought about going to sleep.  

Draw Lyssa As She Sleeps

Turning off the computer, I looked at Lyssa sleeping again, comfortable.  Looking at her beautiful face I decided to pick up the pencil again, lay next to her and started to draw her while sleeping.  I was hoping she wouldn’t turn as she slept and I was lucky.  Just before finishing off her facial features she turned around and I was lucky to just finish.  

The picture wasn’t perfect.  A long face I had drawn in the darkness.  I lay it down.  Then turning everything off and setting the alarm I lay next to Lyssa.  Lyssa once again put her head in the cradle of my arm and shoulder, placing her hand on my chest and on the ground.  That’s how we went to sleep.

Take Lyssa To The Bus Stop

My alarm is dumb these days.  It doesn’t work anymore and rarely wakes you up.  Lyssa was lucky to wake up first today.  It was twenty minutes after the timer was supposed to turn on.  Lyssa had her shower as I lay in bed tired.  When Lyssa came back in she asked me to fill her bottle up with water, which I did.  Coming back downstairs I tried to keep warm in the blanket and closed my eyes once again.

When Lyssa was ready to leave I chucked some clothes on and then walked Lyssa on a windy morning to her bus stop.  Lyssa left her things at my house so she could pick them up this afternoon.  I put my two cents into the conversation and told Lyssa that she would probably not pick her things up until the weekend.  Lyssa got angry with that.  Walking Lyssa to the bus stop I gave her a kiss and then headed home.

Universal Studios CD Delivery

Back at home I went back to sleep to wake up at 11:00am when I heard the postman.  Checking the mail, I found what I had been waiting for from Friday.  It was a CD from Universal Records of “Ol Skool” like they said they would bring to me.  Opening up the package I wasn’t disappointed to find a CD single in there.  Putting the CD on I listened to the instrumental, which was perfect to my needs.  

Listening to the different kinds of mixes on the CD I found them to be pretty good and slightly different.  Turning my computer on I recorded the piece.  To my surprise, it fit perfectly.

Now I’ve been thinking to take all the songs that need to be radio edited to the ‘Fusion Factory’ in Minto and just burn them properly onto a CD before all the other songs are burnt.  That way I can see what they sound like and erase plenty of songs from my computer to make memory.  The problem with that is it might take some money.

The Drum Media Advertisement

Also today, as it is Tuesday, the ‘Drum Media’ will be coming out in some areas.  Since my advertisement is in the ‘Drum Media’ this week I will have to be screening calls from today and probably until the end of the week.  Although I’m anticipating calls I hope I handle them right and don’t sound too nervous on the phone, which I probably won’t be. 

I can figure by now that “Boyz in Black” are not calling me back and their act of being dumb was in fact trying to get rid of me.  That’s alright.  I can handle that.  But probably what I couldn’t handle was their pay after they sung.

I called Nu Town Studios yesterday and booked another session on Monday so I can fix the problems she has made and add a couple of instruments.  When all that is done she will give the Guitar piece to the guy in the studio to practice and in a couple of weeks we will record it.  

Dedicated To A Role In The Music Industry

Things are starting to heat up in this field but that’s not all that is heating up.  Even though my parents have not been on my back at all to get a job or even my friends for that matter, Lyssa occasionally worries that I don’t want a job anymore, but that’s only cause she cares for me.

This year I am dedicating myself to my music.  After my CD is done I can guarantee I will be looking for work in the music industry, maybe working on a computer.  After that, I will get promoted into a job that I want, in the music industry, but without this dedication I already have been giving I probably wouldn’t even have considered it while I was working on my lame accounting jobs.

Before this day is over I should have received a couple of calls for the interest in the singing role.  Although, I receive the ‘Drum Media’ on Wednesday so, until that day I will probably receive nothing.  

Now, I will be using the computer, probably play some games for a little while.  When Lyssa gets back home I will give her a call tonight, I am already starting to get bored.
