Swirlo's my Manager

I wanna thank Jen for getting me back in the ring like Rocky to post.
To tell you the truth, I have been kinda busy here lately.
Ya see, I have been talking with a local company about a possible full-time job with them.
They expressed full interest but the position is one they would have to create for me specifically and we are awaiting some of their upcoming contracts to determine if my possibly-newly-created-position is one that is viable for them at this point.
In the meantime, they gave me some freelance work for their website, which was great.
It had me down a little because I was hoping for a fulltime job.
But now here's the freaky part...and I swear it feels like an Oprah moment.
As soon as I met with their company on a Friday about the freelancing gig and returned home, I received some emails and Myspace notices for some freelance work.
After being bombarded that afternoon with some wonderful business prospects, that night I was contacted by another client to do some more work.
At this point, I won't go into specifics (will keep you all teetering on the edge like a cliffhanger), but I will say these are some very interesting jobs and will definitely have my work seen at a higher level.
It all happened at once and Travy-T is feeling like a real freelancer now!
I am gearing myself towards freelancing more seriously now and also spending more time getting my name and art out there for promo purposes.
Really has openend up a whole new world for the Big T.
So THAT'S why I have been MIA for a little while.
I also have some side projects that I am working on in my spare time such as another music video for YouTube (think: Larger than life. It's just the right size.) and another painting series which I call "Atta Girl: The 9 to 5 Series". I am posting an in-progress pic below.

Hope all of you are well and are staying filthy and lowering yo London Bridges like Fergie.
One mo' thing:
Please bombard Rachel to post on Dirty Bird Special Post Haste! Tell her we need a NEW POST NOW! (Either that, or we will all send her John Tucker Must Die! ecards in her inbox). Yikes!
