None of your business sucka!!! Nah I’m kidding. As you can tell, I’ve been quite busy lately.
I got me a little gig where I’m teaching Math again, this time for the Post Bac class. And well….that is what it is. Some days I feel like I’m really helping, other days I feel like I have no purpose. All in all I like it though. Don’t know when, if, how much I’ll be getting paid, and honestly I don’t really mind, I’d do it for free. That’s the God’s honest truth. People helped me to get where I am, and I look at this as part of my way of giving back. Of course I won’t turn down some loot either, just saying, it’s not a big deal right now.
I am proud of myself and the way I handled my money this semester. I think not having a check card has A LOT to do with that, because I have to go through great pains to have cash on hand now. If life wasn’t so blasted difficult without a check card I probably wouldn’t get another one, but as soon as this refund goes through I probably will.
Let’s see, what are some OTHER highlights since last you heard from me. We celebrated the homie Eman’s birthday 2 weeks ago. That was great! We got our “grown folks” on. Complete with cards and dominos going on at two tables, and kids running around dancing and such. I made a disastrous drink which was saved by some quick thinking on the part of Janelle. It was the best time I’d had in a LONG time.
Last weekend I went to this pool party or whatever and drank a bunch. Then we watched the Mayweather-Gatti fight and I drank a bunch more.
I have been enjoying my summer so far, the weather is nice, not too hot and not too humid. We’ve had a few of those good old summer thunderstorms, which is the OFFICIAL “it’s summertime” sign for me. I wish it could stay like this all year.
What else is there in the world of Cal? I think I’m becoming more of a jerk in my advancing age. I realize that there are people I just don’t like and I have NO good reason for not liking them, but that doesn’t change the fact that I don’t like them. I never thought I’d become one of those people who just “hated on” people, but I have…..without really noticing.
*sigh*
Oh, I knew there was something else. Nina and Che have moved to Chapel Hill, North Carolina (well Nina still has some loose ends in Atlanta for a few weeks). So my mom is living alone for the FIRST TIME IN HER LIFE. I’m a little worried about her, but I think she’ll be okay. She probably worries about me as well, and I’m hanging in there.
Anyway, I’ve got to prepare for this class, I’ll holla whenever!

Who’s in Chapel Hill? IF they’re good folks, tell ‘em to get up with me.

Why would you dislike someone for no good reason? That’s not nice.
I was in that same mindframe ONCE. After some careful thought about why I didn’t like this one chick, I realized the answer: I was insanely jealous of her.
Check yr heart.
