And before I forget...

I finally got another dog. Although its not the want I wanted it was free and its a dog all the same. She's a mutt. She's part Pomeranian and part Yorkie and I named her Zuri Neale Hurston, Zuri for short. I wanted to name her Bijou but that doesn't seem to be a popular dog name, so kinda naming her after a literary giant is a close second.

Now the dog is cute and we get along fine, but this little bitch (I can say that because she's a girl dog) refuses to piss outside. I take her outside once almost every hour and she will not pee but as soon as no one is watching she'll cop a damn squat. I promise you she's only got 2 weeks before potty training is over and I give her ass away.






I also have to give a shot out to my old pets,

My Goldfish- Uncle Jessie
My Turtle- Race Car

My first real pet and my best friend, my dog Gabriel "Gabe"...I miss you!!! (and if you laugh at that fuck you! I loved my dog!




pissy ass dog,

Quote of the Year....

Did I ever tell you that I love Whitney Port. I really do. I do understand that its Black History Month and all but if you made me choose between Whitney and Halle...well, Whitney wins hands down.





I was watching The City and on the phone with my kinda not really but maybe boo, when Whitney dropped what I would call the single greatest line in Reality Television History...

This entire conversation is making me nauseous!!!

That's some ill, straight up G shit to say. What???

Note that I will be dropping that in my next argument right before I A. Walk out of the room or B. Hang up the phone.

Long live Queen Port,

KD

Jazmine did it for me

Damn it!!!! THAT GIRL CAN SANG! The video at the bottom is my own. Yes!!! Just a testament to the great seating that we had.

I really needed Saturday night, it was the first time in a while that I was just able to relax and cut loose. I saw a real live fist fight that I didn't get to record :( . I got to hang with 3 of my true friends, you know the ones you may not see or talk to everyday but you see them things just fall into place. I was really excited because this was the first time any of my friends from NC mixed with my back home crowd and it wasn't awkward. And I found out the biggest nerd I knew is a huge cock slut. I don't know why that's important but it just blows my mind, to think 5 years ago I thought they would never get laid. My my how the world turns.

I know this part is lame too, but I just have to add it in...going out with my friends made me miss school so much. I don't know if it was the dinner conversation or just being on a college campus but damn!...I miss school. I really really do. I just know that after this I'm going to be a huge advocate for Education. I just don't want to see anyone else dreams placed on hold based on factors that are completely out of their control.

I also want to give a big shot out to my momma for being named Lay Person of the Year. I had to go to this huge banquet in this horrible blue polynyloncottonsilkrayonrednyenumber 7 suit, but it was a good time, and I love my momma very much...even if she does have horrible taste in suits.



Dream Big like Jazmine says,

We've Got To Do Better...

What is the reason for this??

We have so much further to go...every time we take one step forward...two step backs.

Concert Withdrawl.

I haven't been to a concert or poetry reading in a good long time. The last concert I went to was Chrisette Michele and Raheem Devaughn in June. I had plans to see Jill and Erykah for FREE in August, but I got super busy and I was broke. I still haven't recovered from that one. But my luck is about to change thanks to my two my favorite people in the entire world. I'm going to see Jazmine Sullivan on Saturday night!






I was worried for a second because my mom is getting some church award on Saturday as well, but it's earlier in the afternoon. I'm glad no one made me choose. Hahaha! But seriously, I'm glad.

Amen! I cannot wait. I really need this in my life.

I hope there are drink involved.

Shout out to Soph and Jas, my friends since forever.


All will be mended with music and booze,

KD

Imma tell you how it ti...is

There is nothing that I love more than a dirty joke. I never knew that Aunt Esther did stand up. I wonder if she got royalties from Monique and them for their show...










It had to be you...you old cock sucker,

KD

I had a dream...

...no, not that dream, but a crazy ass dream. Normally, I dream about my mom getting married to a serial killer, me developing super powers, and other craziness as I try to escape the crazy serial killer and try to save my mom. Except last night I dreamed that Michelle Obama was in my house and kept taking pictures of herself on my blackberry and with my digital camera and she killed the batteries on both. Then she showed me the dog that she brought for her girls and told me that she was going to name it Regal Eagle. I promise...I am not making this up, I dreamed it. I hate to say it but in my dream Michelle my bell was working my nerves. She just wouldn’t she was all over my living room then bust out singing negro spirituals and then Rockin that Thang by the Dream, but in her defense she was really down to earth and gave me some great advice about my future. To bad I can’t remember it.

Then I got snatched out of my sleep by mom because the puppy, who I like to refer to as Zuri Neale Hurston (or Puppy Neale Hurston), has the fuckin runs. Since when do dogs get the runs? Now I'm stuck here feeding her pedialyte and making sure she doesn't shart all over the damn carpet.

This is not what a Sunday was designed for.

But I'm glad the tragedy of Valentines day is over. lol. Even though I kinda almost wanted one for the first time ever, but it wasn't all horrible. My mom brought me a present and I had booze so all was good.

I did finish "The Color of Water: A Black Man's Tribute to His White Mother" while trying to stop the dog from shitting on the floor. It was a good read, with some interesting commentary on race, religion, and self discovery. Now, I'm trying to dive right into another book before I lose my desire to do so.


Ughhh damn dogs,

In 6 months...

It will be mandatory for every college student in America to know the words of this song by heart!!!I don't give a shit where you go to school you can relate to this song in some kind of way, even if your a lame who lived vicariously through your roommate.

SCREAM SENIORS SENIORS SENIORS!!!!!!



P.S. This kid has talent, hope he doesn't become a one hit wonder!


Wishing I was graduating in May!!!,

KD

I'm just sayin....

I love Michelle Obama Lord knows I do BUT...



out of all the pictures ever snapped of Mrs.Obama they picked that one to put on the cover of the worlds most famous fashion magazine! I just don't know what to say! I've seen better candid shots of her. Hell! I could've picked a better shots just by goolgling Michelle Obama!!!! Anna could have done better. Where is that fool Andre' Leon Talley (or however you spell it)? Come on! Did Barack approve this. I'm sure he would not approve!

I know I don't!

screaming we want a re-shoot!!!!,

In a mood.

I'm in a mood. One of those why me moods? I'm having one of those days! A day were telling the world to kiss you ass and threatening to move to mars sounds like a great idea. Yeah...just one of those days. I'm having one of those I need to learn to let go kinda days. A, I need to smile anyway kinda days. A, maybe it won't be so bad 3 months from now kinda days. A, maybe if I dream bigger kinda days. An, it would be different if I were nicer kinda days. A, maybe I'm just the person I need to be kinda days. I'm just having an all around horrible day and its got me in a mood. A horrible don't talk to me, Lauryn Hill Unplugged kinda day.

Maybe tomorrow will be better,

Push...Push it real good.

A couple of the blogs I frequent have been buzzing about this movie from Sundance Film Festival called Push, starting Mo'nique.I found a short youtube clip (bleow) that made six kinds of interested in this movie. Come to find out its based off of a book by the same name written by Sapphire. I'm a big fan on book to movie adaptations but only if I can read the book first. I'm desperate to get my hands on this book ASAP.

Any one wanna loan me $5???

About nothing and everything, but mostly about nothing.

Maybe this has nothing to do with nothing.

Last week I was browsing facebook comments as I do frequently, and I ran across this photo of one of my friends and someone that I don’t particularly care for. I wasn’t tagged in the picture, I was somewhere far off in the background. I didn’t even know I was in the picture. Now underneath this picture was a comment from someone who I consider a pretty good friend.
And the comment read…

LOL...look at KD in the background...is that the same sweater he ALWAYS wear to
formal engagements? LOL!

Now wait just a cotton pickin minute! I play a lot of games. I DO, but I never play with my wardrobe. I just don’t, I have some issues with clothes that make me extra careful about what I wear and how many times (I’ve mentioned that several times before).

I commented the picture and I was actually nice about it. I didn’t go full force forward like I would normally do, and only because on some level I did value the bond I shared with this person. I was pissed about the comment, I won’t lie, but I was willing to let it go even though the entire situation reeks SHADY BUSINESS.

So, yesterday I sent shady picture commenter a text message, nothing extra, I was just trying to keep the lines of communication open. You know, be friendly. I got no response. None!

Ok….

How is it that you did me light weight dirty and you feel you’re in the position to ignore me?

When does that happen?

Now, I’m really annoyed and I remember why I hate taking the higher road, but I will continue on it for now, because when I finish this post I will have no more energy to invest in this situation.


About nothing and everything,

KD

Don't act like you've never done it...

Who really gives a shit if he smoked weed? I doubt he was blowing tree during the Olympics and no one cared that Former President Bush had it hard for the nose candy. It's not like the caught him ass naked in the middle of the crystal meth lab coming down off a 45 day binge. Fuck, my next door neighbor gets high everyday and he's some sort of bank exec or something really high up, and no one cares. Leave the funny looking swimmer alone, I doubt he really wanted to be a role model for your kids, I bet he just wanted to swim and win a bunch of medals and come back home to America and blow trees with his friends, you know, like a normal 23 year old. People have some nerve, treating this like some huge scandal, Its just weed, probably not even more than a dime sack, I'm just saying. People relax.

Better him than me, because I wouldn't have apologized for shit. I would've went to that news conference and acted a plum fool.

It would have went something like this,

Interviewer: Do you feel like you owe your fans an apology?

Me: Nope.

Interviewer: Millions of little kids look up to you, do you feel as if you owe them some sort of explanation?

Me: Make sure you get quality shit. No seeds. No stems. Only do bongs with really close friends and always carry febreeze and eye drops.

Then I would stand up and walk the fuck out.

....I don't smoke weed, but I don't mind people who do. Some of my best friends are pot heads...not you Michael Phelps.

Mary Jane's a sneaky one,

Fuck you Sallie Mae with a rusty nail

Ok this might come off a little racist but right now I really don’t care. Today I called Sallie Mae today to discuss some of my school loan troubles. I already knew there was going to be some bullshit and that I would probably end my phone call cursing out some poor phone counselor about things that neither one of us can control. I did my mandatory 5 to 10 min hold with number prompts and all only to be placed on the telephone with some woman who could have been from some remote Middle eastern country (more than likely India…slum dog millionaire much.) I swear on everything that I love that half the phone call was spent trying to figure out what the hell this lady was talking about. The second half I was just frustrated because this bitch was not trying to hear me just type meaningless shit in to her Bangladeshi computer. Seriously, Sallie Mae, if your dealing with the financial needs of American College students don’t you feel even slightly compelled to have AMERICANS providing service. No offense people of India, but you don’t even understand the American dollar don’t you use Rupee or some shit and you want me to fork over my credit card number, HO SIT DOWN! Right on down. I wanted to hang up so many times just out of pure frustration. I could have asked for a manager but I doubt his/her English was any better. Cheap Labor Sallie Mae bastards you’re the reason the economy and your retarded brother Freddie Mac. Fuck you both. And you whore mother Fannie, can’t forget about that skank.

Down at 5

I’m giving myself a bed time…aka I’m going to start popping Tylenol pm at about 10:30 every night. I hate not being able to sleep before 5 and then the getting up at 9. When will this madness stop? Seriously, how many times can I watch the same Sex and the City reruns on OnDemand? So starting tonight, well maybe not tonight because the Super Bowl is on but, Monday I will take the first step in making my life slightly more normal. Once I get the sleep under control I’m pretty positive that other things will begin to fall into place.

Yeah.

That’s it.
