So I'm accepting the DJ gig. And I'm not going to my friend's gig. Shortly after I posted the poll I made the decision. I'm not sure why I even had a moment of freakout that was big enough to warrant a poll.

In reality, my only viable options (as in options I would truly choose) were choice #1 or choice #2. The reasons being: Djing for 4 hours is a tiring task -- I need to be fully rested and prepared beforehand, not running around trying to do too many things at once. And although option number 4 looks great on paper, it's way more annoying and timeconsuming -- I'd have to find the time to create a dance mixtape, then I would have to find a way to get the tape to the organizer before the event(s). And this is in a neighborhood across town -- a 30 minute drive, which is hard if you don't have a car.

And [livejournal.com profile] justaboi was remarkably the only person who chose #2, aside from myself. Though to be fair, [livejournal.com profile] limenal recommended the same option in an independent e-mail.
I think my fears came more from my tendency toward inertia (aka lazyness) and not wanting to change plans at the last minute. Also, like I mentioned before, 4 hours is a LONG time and it will make for an intense weekend, rather than a completely relaxing one. BUT, as MelRo astutely pointed out, I will be exposing myself to the Hyde Park market, which is a good thing. This is my new career here -- it's time to take it seriously.

Oh, and have I yet mentioned the 300 hundred dollars? I'll just send my friend some flowers wishing her good luck doing the stand up gig.

I'm off to see Paradise Regained's play

Oh baby, let me tell you how I love your djing.

I am so glad we will see you there.

I will be there with my inner fag. We will come say hello to you. We will be wearing the finest PVC pants Hot Topic had to offer.

It is then that we will wiggle our butts.
