Blue's clues
Friends,
I'd like you all to know that Blue received his first piece of fan mail a few days ago. He always goes crazy when someone knocks on the door but this time it was for him! He ripped open the box and found a blue frisbee inside. He wanted me to throw it to him right there. Of course it was from my sister but a dog can dream right?!
A friend of mine also shared with me that very evening that his young daughter was drawing pictures of Blue at the dinner table. She even drew him catching a frisbee unbeknownst to her that he had just received one that day! Some crazy coincidences are going on with this project. Was this perhaps a sign or a clue that this is suppose to happen? Who knows but let's just say no cat could spread this much joy!
Last night the project turned a corner. We are now 67% funded & over 2/3 of the way there. Wow. I am feeling a bit happier everyday knowing that new music might happen. Now kickstarter says that the middle of projects are the most sluggish and difficult time. We are fighting the turkey coma before the dessert comes out. But I am ok with that as my friends on twitter are probably tired of me posting junk about it.
Thank you for those of you that have also been annoying friends with posts about the project. I've seen some great posts. The call me maybe lyrical mashup tweets to get Carley Ray Jasper (I don't want to look up her name don't judge me) to back the project & the play on the name begging sea tweets. You funny people. Thanks again for helping spread the word. I am still working on that video update so bare with me as it will be done this week.
Thanks again! We are getting closer to making this album a reality.
Nate
