Today is World AID's Day. Take the day to educate yourself on HIV and AIDS, also today remember those millions who have died from this horrible disease...
Hey Guys, It's been a while. I'm hoping everyone had a safe and Happy Thanksgiving. I spent the Holiday with the fam of course. Wednesday after work, my brother came up to get me. I spent the night in Stafford with my folks. On Thanksgiving Day we traveled to my sister Cheryl's new house in Chesterfield, Virginia. Damn it was far, or maybe I was just hungry as shit. It took about two hours. We arrived at around 3:30 and immediately started to unpack food so that we could get our grub on. My sister Gwen cooked the turkeys. We had two of course--my family is so excessive. We also had every other damn meat that I could think of. I thought my ass was at Fogo de Chao.
This is my sister's entry way. She has only been in less than a month, so much decorating is needed. Good thing she has a queen for a brother.
After all of the festivities, I returned home on Thursday night to prepare for "Black Friday". Of course I had to work. It wasn't as crazy as I thought it would be, but my store isn't really known for it's deals. Did anyone hear about that poor man that was trampled to death at Wal-Mart? I mean...? Was it that serious. I hope those 200 plus people that trampled him to death enjoyed their toaster ovens on sale. That's too much for me!
Saturday was "Black Friday" part 2, yesterday was Part 3. I had made plans to go out last night, but I just couldn't do it. 30 feels so much different man. It felt like I had cement legs when I woke up from my nap to contemplate going out. I said "fuck it", and rolled over. I woke back up at around 12:15 am. My sister Joey called shortly after that for a conjure ke-ke before he left out for Eye Bar. I talked to him for a while and went back to counting sheep. Even though I feel "old" at times lately, it's so liberating to not feel like you're missing out on something if you don't go out. Same old music plus, same old fake as trade plus, same old venues plus, same weak cocktails plus, same old tired queens in bad graphic tees equals the perfect Sunday night at home in bed. I live...

O.K., did I miss a collection from designer 6267 or something? Are we doing children's back packs now? Can they take us from day to night? What in the Dora...? Not only was this gentleman wearing a Dora the Explorer back pack, he was violently dancing to go-go on the train no doubt. He scared all of the nice white people who were sitting near him away. They came to sit near me, because I was a "safer" looking black. I don't blame them. He was acting like the epitome of the N-word. I was so embarrassed that I had to move to another car on the train. Was that necessary? Awww Lawd...

My fine Mayor of Washington, D.C. has a new addition to his family. Him and Michelle welcome their first baby girl last week into the family.
You would think with all of those Blackberry's going off at all times of night, he wouldn't have time to smash. My hats off to a good-looking Mayor who takes care of the city, and can give his wifey "the business" as well. Call me Fenty!
