*deep breath*

Ok, here goes... *smile*

Itz been a while, huh? Yes, bitch... Damn, u already?! I don't know if I can handle coming out of retirement and dealin' with you this early... lolz! Fine... I'll calm down... Thank You... I know I haven't written in here in a while, and as much as I hate playing "catch up", I will humor you however, with a short Q&A session... Hopefully, it'll answer any questionz, curiousity, etc. that you may have about what'z been going on since my last entry...

Do you mind if I ask the questionz? Sure... Why not..? (Unenthused, to say the least...) Okay great! Let's get started, shall we?

Q: Where the fuck have you been?!?
A: This is gonna be a short interview if you don't calm the fukk down...

Sorry. Let's start over... I'm new at this "being nice" shyt... Ok, let's begin again...

Q: Where have you been?
A: Well, I haven't really been anywhere... I just got lazy, and after so many dayz without updating, it got to the point where I actually forgot about what I'd done, so I really had nothing to write about.

Q: Do you remember anything about the visit from Mz. Stokez?
A: Yes, and no. I can't recall anything specific, I know it had itz ups and downz... But overall, the visit was fine...

Q: Just fine, huh?
A: Yup. Just fine... Next question!

Q: No need for the attitude... A good reporter oftentimez has to dig deep in order to get the dirt...
A: You're not a "good reporter". You're not even a real person! You're just the omniscent voice of this page! Get a grip!

Q: You're the one talking and answering yourself, but I'm the one that needz to get a grip? Interesting...
A: Good Point. Next question please...

Q: So, what'z the status of Mz. Stokez at this point in time?
A: Uhm... Hard to say... At this point in time, I'm not fukkin' wit her anymore...

Q: If I had a nickel for everytime you said that, I'd have... Hold on, I need to get my calculator... *pause* at LEAST 10 cents!
A: lolz! I know I've said that before, and then I end up cuddled up next to her a few nightz later.. But honestly, I thynk this tyme iz different... I'm not gonna get into detail, because she readz this, and she already knowz what she did, and thatz really all that matterz... You live, and you learn...and maybe this was something we both lived and learned from.. Now, itz tyme for us to move on.. *smile*

Q: Sounds like you guys will be back together in a few days...
A: Hardly. We were never "together" to begin with, and I thynk I've run out of patience/hope/optimism for Madame Stokez... *smile*

Q: Ok, moving on... So who's next on the love path?
A: I really don't know... I've never been good at "playing the field", if you may... So, I don't have a 2nd string female waiting in the wings or anything... I have a couple of friends that I may take more seriously now, but other than that, I'm chillin' for the moment... *wink*

Q: Sure you are... Does your next song have anything to do with your current situation?
A: Good Question. ((Duh! You asked it, smart guy!)) lolz! Oh yeah, I forgot... Anyway, yeah it does... I'm not gonna say exactly what parts of the song relate to who and to what, but I'm sure when you hear it, if you listen closely to the words, you'll figure it out... Especially if the song is about you.. *hint, hint*

Q: OoOoooOooooh! So itz about someone you know?
A: Possibly... That's all I'm gonna say... I have to leave something for the imagination...

Q: Okay. Well, as I'm sure you know, Hurricane Katrina has impacted a number of American lives. How has it affected you?
A: Well, other than the rising gas prices and the impact it has had on my pocket, I've also experienced a temporary loss of touch with my friend Catherine. Catherine, or Sam, is a friend of mine who lived in New Orleans. I called her two nights before the storm hit, but there was no response, so I left a message... The day after the storm, I called and there was again no answer, but this tyme, the answering machine did not pick up. I'm assuming her home, in addition to thousands others, might have been washed away by the storm, hopefully well after evacuation. I have yet to hear anything from her, but I've been calling everyday since the storm hit, and I will continue to do my best to find my friend. Hopefully, she evacuated early in the week, before the storm hit, and is safely at home with neighboring family and friends in Baton Rouge, La. or somewhere else. Hopefully...

Q: Have you checked redcross.org?
A: Yeah I checked the site earlier today, but I don't remember her last name, and there are almost one hundred Catherine's on the list of people rescued and taken in by the Red Cross. I'm in the process of getting my home phone records sent to me, so I can get her full name from there. Again, hopefully she is at someone'z home, safe and sound, eating red beans n' rice and a shrimp po'boy... lolz! *smile*

Q: On a happier note, Happy Belated Birthday!
A: Thankyou, Thankyou... The Big 2-5! Whoop Whoop! lolz!

Q: Do you feel old now?
A: I thought I would, but I don't... I still look 12, so I guess that'z why... I went to this club a couple weekz ago, and thiz chyk tried to "carry me" (thatz my DC slang... Thanks Carolyn!), askin' me to show her my ID. I was 24 at the time, so i'm talkin to her, and come to find out, she'z a mere 21, tryna play me for a young buck... At the end of the conversation, shorti was lyke, "so when am I gonna see you again?" I told her, "I don't know... I'd give you my number, but ur a little too young for me..." lolz... I would lie to you and say I walked away lyke "Yeah bitch!", but I didn't... lolz! She gave me herz instead, but like I said before, I'm not good at handlin' more than one female at a time, so I haven't called her yet... But, since Mz. Stokez iz falling quickly from the rankz of #1, I might just give her a call... *smile*

Q: Definitely do that. You always have to keep your options open. How's the job hunt going?
A: I interviewed with Airtran last week, and I have another interview with them this coming Thursday.

Q: You're going to be a flight attendant? rofl!
A: No, dipshyt... I applied for their professional positions.

Q: Oh, lolz! Sorry. I still thynk you'd be a better flight attendant... lolz!
A: lolz... Anything else?

Q: Uhm.. I guess that'z it... If anyone reading this has anything that'd they'd want to ask, that I may have forgotten, please feel free to post them in the tagboard, or leave a comment at the bottom of this entry. Thanks for the update, and thanks for answering all of my questionz...
A: No problem.

*exhales*

Ok, that was weird... lolz!

Well, I won't promise to write in here everyday, but I will promise to make a better effort at it...

I wanted to post a new song, but the server iz actin' up ryte now, so I'll get that up as soon as electronically possible... *smile*

God Bless Everyone effected by Hurricane Katrina, and especially my friend Catherine and her family... Until next tyme...

Lataz...
