DJ<p>Hiya, folks...DJ here. I&#39;m back once again to check-in. For the past few weeks, my thoughts and feelings have been all over the place. Now, I wanted to share those on my show DJ in Real Life but I had to put it on hiatus once again due to technical problems. I had footage from PorchRokr last month that I filmed but somehow it got messed up in the days afterwards with some of it unrecoverable so I had to scrap it. Until I get a new camera and likely a few other things, the hiatus is back on again. Just when I had a bunch of things to talk about, I have to put all of that on hold until I can upgrade and replace the equipment I&#39;ve been using. Quite frankly, it sucks donkey balls. Because I don&#39;t have the funds I was hoping to have (which I will talk about why on one of those future episodes), it may be a while, maybe next year at the earliest. I&#39;m pretty ticked off about it but there isn&#39;t much I can do about it right now.</p><p>In the meantime, I&#39;ve been slowly but surely engaging with my social media, mostly the new Threads platform (if you want to find me there, my handle is &quot;DJHamrickIG&quot;). I feel like I&#39;ve been a little...saucy, for lack of a better word...overall online in the past couple weeks or so. I&#39;ve also been a bit more open with my mental health stuff and some of my political views...or at least moreso regularly than I have been. I&#39;m not sure how long that&#39;ll last but we&#39;ll have to see.</p><p>One other thing I have to note is that it&#39;s been five years since my dad died. It just feels surreal thinking about that and how he&#39;s not here anymore. His brother, my uncle Larry, passed away a year later, two days short of the passing of my dad, in 2019. This is a rough time for so many on my dad&#39;s side of the family. Frankly, I don&#39;t know what to think sometimes about it because of so many mixed feelings on my end...nothing I&#39;m ready to talk about any time soon but those feelings do pop up from time to time, which I never admitted to before. I&#39;m not sure if I ever will talk about those but they are there and they are a part of me.</p><p>Now, because the show is going on hiatus (once again, dammit) and with summer ending, I&#39;ve decided that I&#39;m shutting down my social activity for the rest of the calendar year and pick back up next year. I&#39;m not hiding so much as I need to get some financial stability. As embarrassing as saying this might be for me, I don&#39;t expect any invitations to anything or any events any time soon. Whether I turned people off or away from me or they&#39;ve moved on with their lives, apparently I haven&#39;t been on top of too many people&#39;s good sides, so I really don&#39;t have the kind of social life I was hoping I would have. It&#39;s partly my doing in some cases, sometimes it was circumstances out of my control, sometimes I just couldn&#39;t afford to do some things...but if I&#39;m being honest with myself, I&#39;m not a favorite of too many folks right now. If I have a mission over the next year and a half, especially in regards to my show, this is something I&#39;m really going to work on greatly improving. Due to recent changes in some long term circumstances &amp; the ending of one specific thing, there is a great potential for major personal changes in my life overall which for one reason or another I could not make any room or even have the possibility to make room for until now. I&#39;ll cover those changes on my show when the hiatus is over. In the meantime, except for anything that might have to do with my finances, people are gonna notice things with me or around me start changing or looking different, maybe including my overall life circumstances. Like I said, I&#39;m gonna work on my social stuff and some of my social graces as I am apparently not as good at them as I was or thought I was. Well, I&#39;m gonna work on that because...frankly...I need a life. The only thing I have for certain is going to USFL games again next year in Canton. Other than that, things are gonna be pretty open...for now.</p><p>On that note, I&#39;m gonna take off. Thanks for reading. While the show&#39;s on hiatus, you can catch me here occasionally or on my social media. Until next time, take care, God bless, and I&#39;ll see you on the flip side.</p><p>DJ Hamrick</p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/checkin" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>checkin</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/DJinRealLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>DJinRealLife</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/hiatus" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>hiatus</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/upcomingplans" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>upcomingplans</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/father" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>father</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/sociallife" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>sociallife</span></a></p>
DJ<p>It&#39;s been a few days since I decided how often I post here on Mastodon but I do have something to talk about. WWE star Bray Wyatt has died, apparently from a heart attack. Instead of just a regular post, I decided to do an episode of my show DJ in Real Life dedicated to his passing. It just got posted on YouTube (it took 3 hours just to upload it today...don&#39;t know why since the episode is only 10 minutes long) and you can watch it here: <a href="https://youtu.be/HCJz2TIMVOQ?si=jDNBv6BTsGUH8mvm" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">youtu.be/HCJz2TIMVOQ?si=jDNBv6</span><span class="invisible">BTsGUH8mvm</span></a></p><p>Take care, God Bless, and I&#39;ll see you on the flip side.</p><p>DJ</p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/BrayWyatt" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>BrayWyatt</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/passing" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>passing</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/wwe" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>wwe</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/DJinRealLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>DJinRealLife</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/latestepisode" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>latestepisode</span></a></p>

DJ<p>I&#39;m hopping on here today and making this a weekend check-in post covering both yesterday and today. After I post this and do a couple other things, I&#39;m heading out for a rare mid-day walk and hopefully do some filming if I can find a decent spot to do so. Outside of that, there isn&#39;t much going on. This week I&#39;m hoping to film one of my biggest episodes of DJ in Real Life about something that just happened and a day I never thought I&#39;d see. Also, I am hoping to hit up PorchRokr next weekend and maybe do some filming for that too.</p><p>On that note, I bid you all adieu. Thank you for reading. I hope to see you again real soon.

DJ<p>Instead of posting the way I usually do, I thought I&#39;d just share the latest episode of my show DJ in Real Life. It pretty much sums up what I would have written here anyway. Here&#39;s the latest episode straight from YouTube:</p><p><a href="https://youtu.be/1XSLZsVi7wI" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">youtu.be/1XSLZsVi7wI</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p>On that note, I bid you all adieu.

DJ<p>Hiya, folks. Earlier I went up to Festa Italiana in downtown Cuyahoga Falls earlier. I was intended to just walk around and maybe grab something to eat. I ended up meeting with a couple of friends who were up there for one of the concert acts, which I hung around for, and stuck around for the festival&#39;s fireworks show which I did not know about until I went up there. While I was there, I also filmed the second episode of DJ in Real Life while I was downtown there talking about Festa Italiana. I&#39;ve completed the episode and uploaded it a few minutes ago. You can find the new episode here:</p><p><a href="https://youtu.be/LVbAUqP1DFY" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">youtu.be/LVbAUqP1DFY</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p>On that note, I bid you all adieu.

DJ<p>This has been one of THOSE days. It seems I can&#39;t do much in life when every small step I make going forward means taking two steps backwards. Today is no exception as I bring my show, DJ in Real Life, to life on YouTube but now my TV is now half dark. I&#39;ve turned it off for a while to see if that might fix it. It had been on all day so I&#39;m wondering if a cool down might help. If it doesn&#39;t...well, I guess a new TV will be added to the long wishlist I already have.</p><p>Anyway, not to get lost in the shuffle, I did bring back my show. I just decided in the last day or so to just go forward with it with what stuff I have now to work with. Anyway, you can find the first episode here on YouTube: </p><p><a href="https://youtu.be/uIKIcPgrEXM" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">youtu.be/uIKIcPgrEXM</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p>This is more of a test episode than anything so I am seeking feedback on this first show. When I release the next episode may depend on the feedback I get from this first show. Or it may not, I haven&#39;t decided yet. In any case, check out the show and tell me what you think in the comments.</p><p>On that note, I bid you all adieu. Thank you for reading. I hope to see you again real soon.

DJ<p>Another day, another check-in post. I&#39;m still dealing with some issues related to the haze &amp; smoke from the past day or so. I was able to get some stuff done today with a few adjustments so at least I got the things I needed to finish done. This has been a glitchy day as I&#39;ve had start and stop issues with my computer today and that&#39;s been frustrating as I haven&#39;t been able to finish up my computer stuff for today as a result. I am hoping all the glitchy stuff both online and off clears up before long as it&#39;s driving me nuts. I&#39;m praying to God that it does clear up soon. With all this stuff going on, I&#39;m again wondering if God is trying to tell me something. I don&#39;t have any idea what that might be yet but it could be but I hope I understand it when I do get one.</p><p>On that note, I bid you all adieu. Thank you for reading.

DJ<p>Early again for a check-in post but it&#39;s been an off day for yours truly. The Canadian wildfires have come to haunt Ohio once again this summer as a shit ton of smoke and haze permeated around the area today. I couldn&#39;t do as much as I wanted to today due to that. I was able to get a couple things done and was hoping to do more but the smoke got to me unexpectedly and I had to take it easy. I can actually still smell the smoke which, frankly, I hope clears out by tomorrow. It&#39;s supposed to rain over the weekend so I shouldn&#39;t have too many issues in Saturday regarding the haze...I hope. I did take a shower to help me wash off some other haze and it helped a little bit but it would really help if this hazy stuff goes away. I didn&#39;t expect to be affected so much by the haze especially physically but I am getting older so it looks like I&#39;m gonna have to start being mindful in the future if such a hazy condition pops up again. If I move wherever I move to, this kind of haze won&#39;t affect me as much as it apparently now does up here in Ohio. Maybe this is a sign. Who knows?</p><p>On that note, I bid you all adieu.

DJ<p>I&#39;m doing this check-in post really early because I&#39;m gonna be doing some stuff and I won&#39;t have a chance to do this before I go to sleep later on. Anyway, I did do a little running around today but not much due to the rainy weather. I&#39;ve got a few other things I have to do this week before going to the USFL championship game this weekend. I hope I have the strength to do them, specifically in my right arm as I&#39;ve had nerve issues with it since the beginning of the year. It&#39;s led to me being unable to lift anything heavy, even a gallon of milk, without some grimacing pain. On top of that, my skin has started peeling where I got sunburned on my arms and my left knee. I&#39;ve been putting on some lotion with aloe vera on the affected areas but it&#39;s still itchy where it&#39;s been peeling off a bit. It&#39;s been a physically trying time to say the least. I&#39;m hoping rest might help, especially with my right arm, as I need to start getting some strength back in it. I&#39;m thinking a wrap might help but I&#39;ll have to see about that.</p><p>On that note, I bid you all adieu. Thank you for reading. I hope to see you again real soon.

DJ<p>I&#39;m doing this a bit early but it&#39;s only a check-in post. I went to my podcasting meetup and the topic was pushed back to next month due to technical difficulties and issues stemming from changing over from a Meetup-based group to a Facebook group. It might take a while to sort that out but if more notices can get out noting the changes then maybe folks will finally move over to the FB group. Like I said yesterday, outside of some general stuff I have to do this week if the weather allows, my next big event will be the USFL championship game on Saturday night and, after that, July 4th fireworks, wherever I go for that. I&#39;m also thinking about hitting up Portage Lakes fireworks but I don&#39;t know if those are the following weekend or the one after that. That&#39;s all I have for an update for now.</p><p>On that note, I bid you all adieu. Thank you for reading. I hope to see you again real soon.

DJ<p>Another day, another check-in post for yours truly. The only thing on the agenda for today is my monthly meetup with my podcasting group. The weather is lousy at the moment, with threats of rain, thunderstorms, and overall bad weather over the next few days. I&#39;m hoping it doesn&#39;t go into the weekend as I&#39;ve got the USFL championship coming up on Saturday night. I&#39;ve got a covered seat but I don&#39;t want to deal with horrible weather getting to and from the game. Outside of that, I&#39;m just gonna relax as I&#39;ve had a busy couple of months and still need to lower the anxiety and missed sleep caused by being woken up before I got enough rest at any particular time.</p><p>On that note, I bid you all adieu.

DJ<p>Last night I headed out to watch some fireworks. Unfortunately my initial plan went out the window when I drove out to the Lakemore side of Springfield Lake and discovered I couldn&#39;t park on that side due to a private event taking place there. It was the best place to watch the Rock the Docks fireworks show and I didn&#39;t relish trying to find a decent spot elsewhere to watch them so I was shit out of luck. Fortunately, I had a backup plan and headed south to the city of Green&#39;s FreedomFest. That turned out to be a bigger event than I expected as it took place at a huge park behind Akron-Canton Airport and there were a ton of people there. I found a spot to park waiting on the fireworks and listening to the USFL North Division playoff game. It seems it didn&#39;t matter where I would&#39;ve parked as it was a huge fireworks show. It was definitely bigger than Rock the Docks and bigger than a lot of shows in Akron I&#39;ve been to. I left before the show ended as I didn&#39;t want to get stuck in the potential huge amount of traffic that was gonna snarl up the place if I had left any later than I did and because I had a headache due to not getting as much sleep the night before as I needed because I was woken up involuntarily and couldn&#39;t get back to sleep. Nevertheless, Green&#39;s FreedomFest will be a future option for fireworks shows, especially if I go with anybody else in the future.</p><p>As far as upcoming events go, I have some stuff to take care of this week but my next event will be the USFL championship game between the Pittsburgh Maulers who won their game last night and the winner of tonight&#39;s South Division playoff game on Saturday night. It looks like I may have to head out an hour or two earlier than I was hoping as there&#39;s a pregame concert taking place and if I want a decent parking spot I&#39;ll have to go early. At least I found out ahead of time to account for that. Anyway, the next big thing following that is Akron&#39;s July 4th fireworks. They&#39;re doing the 3 location thing again but I was hoping to take the bus this year downtown and do a mini-adventure this year. I don&#39;t know if that&#39;s gonna be the definite plan as there are some things I have to check out before I decide whether I can do it or not. If I can&#39;t, I&#39;ll fall back on going to the fireworks near Derby Downs and the airport over there. Last year the fireworks shows were cancelled due to violent protests in downtown Akron around that time but this year that&#39;s not expected to happen. Because of last year&#39;s cancellation, there&#39;s a high probability of a bigger than normal crowd showing up at all the shows so I&#39;ll have to plan accordingly. I hate complications and I hate having to accommodate for them, but apparently such is life.</p><p>On that note, I bid you all adieu. Thank you for reading. I hope to see you again real soon. Until next time, folks, this is ya boy DJ sayin&#39; take care, God bless, and I...am...outta here.

DJ<p>One more time, another check-in post. The only thing of note I did was attempt to look up the fate of some people who I went to high school with who were just trouble personified back in the day. I found three who had extremely bad outcomes that either currently or formerly included serious prison time. Not jail...prison. I tried to avoid most of those folks back in grade school but I was curious about finding out a couple of people I wasn&#39;t sure of. Sure enough, it isn&#39;t pretty for them whatsoever. It&#39;s times like these where I&#39;m grateful to the Lord Almighty that I never tried to associate with or be unnecessarily near those folks like them as, frankly, many of them scare the shit out of me to this day not just as bad folks but some of them as outright bullies who I know for certain terrorized people I knew. I don&#39;t know why I have such morbid curiosity about them. Maybe it&#39;s my anxiety about being picked on, singled out, terrorized by some folks...not the ones I&#39;m talking about here specifically, but past &quot;adversaries&quot; for lack of a better term in general and me searching out their info in order to keep myself safe from a random encounter with those people who were nothing but horrible and trouble to me. Checking up on trouble people as I call them is not a regular habit but probably one I shouldn&#39;t do, especially if I get anxiety that becomes too difficult for me to face at any particular time. I just pray that if I do that I keep my wits about me and don&#39;t go overboard if I do so.</p><p>On that note, I bid you all adieu. Thank you for reading. I hope to see you again real soon. Until next time, folks, this is ya boy DJ sayin&#39; take care, God bless, and I...am...outta here.

DJ<p>Check-in day once again. I did my usual stuff I normally do at home but that&#39;s it. The one thing I&#39;m noticing is how many right wingers seem to be on the warpath today. This is likely due to the ever rising prospect of Donald Trump getting convicted and going to prison for a significant amount of time. Frankly, it&#39;s a prospect I relish given how much damage he&#39;s done to the country over the past decade. I believe despite all the bluster and sabre rattling from the right wing that there is no saving Trump from what&#39;s likely going to happen to him. On top of that, he&#39;s doing himself no favors by whining and acting all petulant because the only thing he&#39;s accomplishing is he&#39;s digging himself deeper into the hole he&#39;s made for himself, possibly digging his own grave, figuratively speaking, in the process. Trump has run away from accountability for so long and it&#39;s starting to finally catch up to him with a vengeance. He&#39;s not getting away, he knows it, his supporters know it, and yet they try and try and try in ever increasingly futile efforts to get away with all the wrong he and they have done and it&#39;s not working. Justice is coming for them whether they like it or not.</p><p>On that note, I bid you all adieu. Thank you for reading. I hope to see you again real soon.

DJ<p>Another day, another check-in post. I did do some grocery shopping earlier but that&#39;s pretty much it for the excitement in my day. I am considering changing my plans for this weekend, though. There&#39;s a possibility that the place I usually watch Rock the Docks fireworks from won&#39;t be accessible and I&#39;m not really keen on watching them from the spots offered because they&#39;re rather inconvenient for me. There&#39;s also another fireworks show in Green township that night as well that might be worth checking out as well. It looks like whatever I&#39;m doing this weekend will be a last minute thing. Heck, depending on the weather, I might just stay home and wait on July 4th for the first official fireworks show I go to this year. I guess we&#39;ll see what happens this weekend.</p><p>On that note, I bid you all adieu. Thank you for reading. I hope to see you again real soon.

DJ<p>I&#39;m doing this real early today but it&#39;s just another check-in post. The only thing I have going on in the next day is that I&#39;ll be doing some grocery shopping and getting some of my usual monthly stuff, mainly toiletries this time out but I may try out a different soda brand and maybe lowering my caffeine intake somewhat. I needed the caffeine because of energy and sleep issues a while ago but maybe I might not need it so much now. It might be time to start weaning myself off of it. This is probably the right time to start doing that. I&#39;ve done the weaning off thing before but never took too much notice of what happened to me physically when I did. I&#39;m going to this time out as I want to see how it affects me.</p><p>On that note, I bid you all adieu. Thank you for reading. I hope to see you again real soon.

DJ<p>I really don&#39;t have anything to talk about so this will just be a check-in post for today. One thing I have to note is that because the B&amp;K Drive-in in Cuyahoga Falls was closed for today (either due to a regular Monday closing or because of Juneteenth) that I had Steak N Shake for dinner instead. That is a downgrade, obviously. I&#39;m hoping to hit up B&amp;K sometime in the next couple weeks because I haven&#39;t had it in a while. The only other thing I want to note is that summer officially starts in a couple of days. I&#39;m still not sure if it&#39;ll be an active one or a lazy one yet.</p><p>On that note, I bid you all adieu. Thank you for reading. I hope to see you again real soon.

DJ<p>This will be just a nice good ol&#39;check-in post today. There&#39;s only a couple things I want to note. One, I changed my Facebook profile pic to my actual face as opposed to the regular DJ logo. I don&#39;t know how long I&#39;ll keep that up until I return the logo, but I did it so a couple of people who either wanted to connect with me on there or already have would know it&#39;s my actual real account. Two, the USFL playoffs are set as both the New Orleans Breakers and the Michigan Panthers punched their tickets to the postseason. The South matchup is a rematch from last year while the North matchup is between the two teams that didn&#39;t make it last year in the Panthers and the Maulers. I won&#39;t be going to the North playoff game, as I&#39;ve said before, so I can go watch the fireworks show I missed last year for the USFL playoffs, but I will listen to some of it on the radio before the fireworks show begins. I might go walking afterwards but that&#39;s not set in stone. The only thing I do have set to do before the weekend is a bit of grocery shopping. Other than that and the following weekend with the USFL championship game, there isn&#39;t anything really going on for me. If I didn&#39;t do anything else for the rest of the year aside from those events, this would still be the busiest year I&#39;ve had since 2016 when I worked for the Hillary Clinton presidential campaign. I do want to do more. I just don&#39;t know what exactly I&#39;ll be up to. There are a couple of NEOPro Wrestling shows coming later this year and there are still some festivals and a couple fireworks shows I want to hit up as well as doing my usual walks. I just won&#39;t be so ahead of schedule, so to speak, when those things come up. I hope I don&#39;t get complacent or bored or disinterested, especially, when those events come up. It&#39;s happened before due to my ongoing anxiety and depression issues so it is a concern. I think I&#39;ve gotten better at keeping my head up, but that will be put to the test the rest of this year.</p><p>On that note, I bid you all adieu. Thank you for reading.

DJ<p>This is another two-day covering post. It&#39;s an eventful post for today but simply a check-in post for tomorrow. I&#39;ll probably have more check-in posts during the week and stuff to talk about on weekends for the rest of the month. That&#39;s what&#39;s expected but not absolute confirmation what may happen posting wise. If it&#39;s super slow, I may skip a few days until I have stuff to talk about.</p><p>Anyway, I went to two separate events earlier today. The first was the expected activity, the last USFL game of the regular season. The Pittsburgh Maulers won, meaning that even though they had a 4-6 regular season record they made the postseason. They did get screwed out of a win earlier this season by the refs but by the end of the season they started to put things together by the end of the season and, by winning out, snatched a playoff spot thought improbable in mid season. Congrats to the Maulers on the berth. With their win and a Stallions win that came later on, that means the New Jersey Generals and the Memphis Showboats are out of the postseason. Tomorrow will determine the last two spots for the playoff games next weekend.</p><p>After the game, I decided to go to NEOPro&#39;s second show. I wasn&#39;t sure I was going to go given the issues with my sunburned arms and only having 2or 3 hours of sleep, but I gutted it out. I&#39;m glad I did. I saw an old friend, Zach, and caught up with him for a bit. He used to wrestle but he retired from in ring competition and is now managing and producing shows including for NEOPro. I mentioned to him a match idea that I haven&#39;t seen before and might make for a good match. I don&#39;t know how serious it was going to be taken but I think I have a valid proposal regardless. Anyway, I had some interactions with various folks including the wrestlers and had a decent time tonight. NEOPro isn&#39;t having their next show until the end of September so I should have some time beforehand to save up some money for it.</p><p>On that note, I bid you all adieu. Thank you for reading. I hope to see you again real soon. Until next time, folks, this is ya boy DJ sayin&#39; take care, God bless, and I...am...outta here.
