Back to life…back to reality


So I have neglected my blog for the past couple weeks. I was in Cincinnati and I can't lie I wasn't doing much of anything! I could go into the details of the trip but I don't really feel there's much need, there's not much to report. I looked pretty much like that furry thing up there most of the time.

Things have still been somewhat rocky between me and The Boo although we are still together. He lost his brother while I was home. The guy was the same age as me and he had been paralyzed from a gunshot he received about a year ago. I think the fact that he was my age and had to die as a result of the crazy crime in Cincinnati has really tripped me out. We're constantly hearing about out black men getting shot and killed out there but it's never been this close to home.

My neglect of the blog also led to a neglect of all my other favorite blogs! I've been trying to play catch up on so many of them but one thing I've been reading about has really got me fuming. Why are people in an uproar because Michelle Obama wore shorts?

I can't figure it out. I understand the whole fascination with the Obama's because they are black or whatever the reason is, but we're going to make a big deal about her shorts??? Don't we have other things to worry about like finding that reality TV guy that killed his wife, Miley Cyrus' new boyfriend, or the Obama healthcare plan? Let's focus on something slightly more important please America.

I'm going to cut this short…the Fam is here this weekend so I'm sure there will be more to come in the weekend update!
