♫ It's the weekend
♫ And I'm happy
♫ Happy to be alive
- So it's the first sunny morning all week,
which is super exciting and makes me smile.
However, I got like five hours sleep last night.
Oh I gotta make this light.
Oh I am gonna make it?
Oh it's gonna close.
Yes sprint.
I'm sprinting.
Not really but this is I'm gonna make it.
I'm gonna make it.
Keep telling yourself that and thinking
I'm gonna make it or die.
Don't die.
I'm gonna make it.
I'm not gonna die yet.
Ooh I'm out of shape.
Oh I need a breather.
I made it, I made it.
So I'm on my way to go and see
a very dear and inspiring friend.
Natalie.
Super-excited to her.
She's in town on business and she's--
(speech drowned out by police sirens)
She's a big reason I do what I do.
A constant inspiration.
So I was trying to record myself in the elevator,
just as I got off work
and I started saying "yay I'm off work."
And the door opened and there was a cleaning lady,
she just started laughing.
"It's true I'm off work and I'm happy."
But yeah I'm off work.
It's a good day, it's a long day,
I'm actually super starving.
Normally we get dinner at work
but today they were late serving dinner
and I just had to leave,
otherwise I get home too late.
I've got like an hour commute.
I feel good, it's beautiful out.
I had a great lunch with a good friend of mine.
I fell inspired.
I feel some clarity of vision.
I'm at train station.
So we just got off the train.
Normally I pass the f out on trains, I'm so exhausted.
Probably should've just done that now
considering I only got five hours sleep last night.
But instead I was just on YouTube.
I called it research but,
it wasn't so much re--
It was research, we're calling it research.
I'm a singer at heart.
♫ 'Cause that's my name.
Obviously not so much in reality.
Fun fact, when I was a teenager,
I had a little bit of OCD, no doubt about it.
So I'm a big sports guy and I grew up in the nineties,
ooh I just told my age, basically.
I grew up in the nineties, you know the San Francisco 49er's
were really really good.
Steve Young, Jerry Rice yeah.
And I would never be a cheerleader, I would suck at it.
So big football fan.
And when it was the play off times,
I was watching these games, so nervous.
I had to do everything in two's.
That was two, in case you didn't know what two was.
Everything was in two's.
If I scratched my nose, without realizing it
or if I scratched my nose, I would have to scratch it again.
Like immediately.
And if they lost, it was because of me.
I didn't do something in two's.
I'm sorry San Francisco 49er fans.
Those losses were on me.
These days, maybe I should get back into that.
Since the 49er's are terrible,
maybe that's the reason they're so terrible.
Because I don't do everything in two's,
should I do everything in two's?
No.
Never do it.
So here's another fun fact,
ooh filled with lots of fun facts today.
So there's this little,
I wish I could turn my camera,
there's this like planter that I always walk on
when walking home.
I like to be elevated, I like to take the unusual path.
And I could scare some people though,
because they're be some people
they're like not expecting a grown man to be walking
on this planter next to them.
Wait I just got a message.
Claire Johnson.
I don't know why I'm still recording.
Y'all can't see me.
Can you see me now?
You can see me now!
It's almost midnight, I have been working for 15 hours now.
I am just sitting down at my desktop computer
after doing some artist and quote research,
doing some hashtag research.
Now I am at my big beautiful desktop computer,
Apple Macbook, not Macbook, Apple,
I don't even know what they call it.
Apple something.
What is it called?
Apple iMac.
Apple 27 inch Mac desktop.
And I am currently about to render my latest video
in a Facebook native format.
So there's a light bar above the top and bottom
and the top has in big bold letters
what that videos about.
So you can quickly see without even having to watch anything
or read the subtitles, what it's about.
And if it strikes your attention, hopefully it does,
you can read it.
So I'm gonna do that
and I'm gonna get in the shower
and then I'm gonna get to bed.
Such is my night.
It's been a very productive day
and I'm almost out of energy after five hours of sleep
the past three days.
But I do, we're gonna do this.
Tomorrow mornings gonna suck,
but I'm doing it anyways because I love it.
Guys I'm done, this is an emergency.
Emergency.
I'm down to my last pair of underwear.
I need to do laundry tomorrow night,
remind me or self I'm screwed on Saturday.
This happens shhh.
I'll go wear a dirty pair of underwear.
But that's not gonna happen,
'cause you're gonna remind me to do laundry to my Friday.
Boom.
So,
remember when I told you I needed to do laundry on Friday?
Well it's Friday and I haven't done laundry.
Not the best start to my morning, just missed my train.
It's a little rainy
and I'm a little tired.
So that's the bad news.
The good news is it's Friday.
Something I definitely am gonna have to work on
and this is actually I think really good for me,
is not caring what others think
when I've got a camera in front of my face
recording my daily life.
It is gonna be a good thing,
because it helps me,
it reminds me that I shouldn't give a fuck.
So this is hard for me.
I like to be invisible when I'm out in public.
I like to be the viewer not the seen,
the see-er not the seen.
You like what I did there, yeah.
But I'm definitely noticeable
and people are looking at me weird.
And this is a lesson in not giving a fuck.
Friday.
Friday, Friday, Friday yeah.
It's Friday 6pm.
It's a little rainy but I'm super stoked
to get out of work and have a wonderful weekend.
I kind of like this mist,
it's mysterious.
I just realized that I've had the Sound of Music,
like the song, stuck in my head all day.
And what's funny, when I get something stuck in my head,
I don't know if this is true of you,
or if this is normal.
But whenever I have something stuck in my head,
it's like literally a line.
In this case its
♫ To the sound of music
That's literally on repeat.
♫ To the sound of mus
Of course when I hear it in my head,
it sounds way better.
It sounds super professional when I sing in my head,
not so much when I let it out of my mouth.
Such is life.
♫ To the sound of music
So last night, I emailed a really great gallery in Australia
who I really respect and asked them two questions.
One for them to take a look at this artist
who reached out to me,
who I thinks enormously, enormously talented.
This young artist from Florida, only 18 years old,
but the kid is ridiculously talented
and I wanted to get their advice
and to see if they would at least speak to him.
Just to give him advice about the industry.
And two, I basically asked if I could intern for them,
or doing any work them.
Basically anything I can do to learn the industry
as I try to become an art dealer myself.
Right now I'm just kind of looking at my Tumblr.
Tumblr is, I use Tumblr not necessarily for growth
but for, it's a great central location
to post all the artwork that I'm going to consider.
For my Instagram and Facebook, ForLoveInArt.
So give that a check if you want,
nathanryanproctor.tumblr.com,
if you want a preview of what may be to come.
I don't post everything,
but yeah it's like, I love it.
Tumblr is also were if I want one of the artwork,
not all of it, but it is a definite source.
Here let's check it out actually.
I've been digging a lot of stuff
with really amazing uses of color.
You can only really get digitally.
So that's beautiful.
This is really, really cool.
From the Dominican Republic.
Gaby D'Alessandro.
I'm looking at this fridge and I'm like
I could be hungry, I could have some ice cream
or I could go healthy and have some kind of vegetables.
I haven't really had much vegetables today.
Don't you love the word vegetable?
Veg-e-tab-le.
So,
remember when I told you I needed to do laundry on Friday?
Well it's Friday?
And I haven't done laundry, nor am I gonna get to it.
So yep.
Tomorrow I'm gonna be wearing dirty underwear,
and that's a little embarrassing,
but it's what I get for not doing my laundry.
I have to pay.
It's called karma.
Wow that sucks though, it happens.
It happens, I will survive.
It's kinda gross but I will survive.
And yeah, I just wanted to let you know
that you let me down.
You were supposed to remind me.
You did not remind me.
It's your fault.
No it's not, I love you.
