Pauly From the Block

So I have now lived in New York City for 6 months.  It still feels weird to say that sometimes, like I forget that I finally did it.  There have definitely been periods of trial-by-fire, but I am learning that this is common for the first year experience.  Even with all the struggles and hardships I've faced, I have been blessed with plenty of help along the way.  I've been learning and growing so much that it's hard to describe at this point.  One major thing I've learned is how to adapt, and my definition of "home" has changed.  I've been at my new place two days and I already feel right at home, happy to have a bed, furnished room, privacy, big windows, and plenty of sunshine.  I've got the incense going and am about to do some sun salutations.

By the way, I'm living in the Bronx for at least the next four months. That's right, Pauly From the Block, Uptown Doodie Brown comin' to ya live from the BX!  Here's my address in case you need to mail anything (contact me for packages, using my work address for those):
Paul Petrosky
2635 Sedgwick Ave #4A
Bronx, NY 10468

It's been a crazy ride these past 6 months, and feels like it's been a lot longer.  I'm excited to see what comes next, and I'm finally ready for visitors--come stay with me!

Black Dove




Hello everyone.  This year I am experiencing winter in a whole new way. I'm actually getting to feel the season creep in and take hold.  I'll see real snow for the first time and face a long winter.  Therefore, you're being treated to two winter mixes this year, the second to arrive sometime in January.

But for now, draw up a blanket, light a candle, and listen closely.  It is always darkest before the dawn, and as the year draws to a close, it is a dark night, indeed.  We come together for comfort and joy, but the cold finds its way in...something wicked this way comes!




*A note for iPod/iPhone users:  once downloaded, be sure to put this mix into a playlist before syncing.  Otherwise the files tend to get separated...
