Yo tip I tell you man the devil's tryin it
But I'm goin to stay strong cause I ain't buyin it
-ATCQ, "8 Million Stories"
Sometimes, words merely scrtach the surface of what you really want to convey. Whether it's with hand gestures or exaggerated vocal intonations or fuqed up punctuation, there's always a little room for some extra flavor to spice up the party.
Let's just say that the past few days were a serious mind fuq. One one hand, you can go through all kinds of ups and downs and turmoil, yet realize that things could be a lot worse given your situation. So I hope to chalk it up as a lesson learned to take the good with the bad and let's life's bumps push me around and adjust accordingly. It's the only way any meaningful growth will come my way.
The real crazy thing is that I've had random assorted mental notes that I've been logging in my brain since last Wednesday in the hope that I'll be able to recollectt them and type the words for preservation's sake. But alas, I'm a retard and I barely remember what I ate today. But I'll give it a shot. Plus, some of the topics may require their a separate blog entry in their own right. Things that made me go hmmm...
-> Why did I fly out on Thursday morning with one checked bag and returned home on Monday still not having seen my bag since I checked it?
-> Why does a new, cheap toothbrush purchased on the fly never quite feel the same those first few brushes?
-> Why couldn't I use my man Boone's 30% Foot Locker employee discount on those 5 for $20 tees?
-> Why didn't my family have a theme party until now?
-> Why did two funerals have to preceed the party/reunion?
-> Why does my old high school still seem the same?
-> Why did lil sis get jacked on her way from ATL?
-> Why does the old neighborhood look so bad?
-> Why does the old plantation in the country look so dilapidated?
-> Why did my gift-giving ideas get jacked up with the luggage fiasco?
-> Why do I like my aunt's macaroni and cheese so much more than anyone else's?
-> Why do families still beef no matter the effort put forth to reach out?

Well I hope you had a good time, at least. Sorry to hear about the luggage thing. I've had that happen before. Sucks.
-> Why did I fly out on Thursday morning with one checked bag and returned home on Monday still not having seen my bag since I checked it?

-> Why does a new, cheap toothbrush purchased on the fly never quite feel the same those first few brushes? i feel the same way...teeth be feeling all violated and stuff.
-> Why couldn't I use my man Boone's 30% Foot Locker employee discount on those 5 for $20 tees? now you know fl aint trying to hear 30% off 20 dollars...
-> Why didn't my family have a theme party until now?
i don't know but i bet it was fun.
-> Why did two funerals have to preceed the party/reunion?
because that is how negroes do. and you know we have to "party to celebrate that person's life." you know we like to get it cracking.
-> Why does my old high school still seem the same?
because it is. lol...
-> Why did lil sis get jacked on her way from ATL?
that's fucked up. i hope she is ok and no kids were with her.
-> Why does the old neighborhood look so bad? um...because...it does?? plus when you get older, you have a different reference point.
-> Why does the old plantation in the country look so dilapidated? i thought the majority of plantations look dilapidated?
-> Why did my gift-giving ideas get jacked up with the luggage fiasco?
sorry.
-> Why do I like my aunt's macaroni and cheese so much more than anyone else's? probably the same reason why my grandmother got the crown on the peach cobbler and she is dead.
-> Why do families still beef no matter the effort put forth to reach out? because families thrive on dysfunction.
