I have got to learn when to let a bama kick and roll. Stop doing this we are the world shi% that I thought was the right way to go. Naw, Naw, Now its time to just straight cut shit out! I don't mean being all angry and bitter toward everybody. Just recognizing when some folks just aint where you are. And let that be that. I will not be the "cat lady" of human beings. You know, collecting 73 homeless cats just cause they aint got no where to go. I ain't gone just be friends with folks out of some ridiculous need to help them. When "of course" obvious to everyone right now, they don't see nothing wrong. Now you could be sitting on the other side of this post looking smug and laughing at me cause I was tryin to be Ms. Goodie Two Shoes and got a shoe in my ass. But then again, I might know you already and laugh with you cause I know you know what I mean. Sometimes when that emergency broadcast sound comes on from the inside and says "this is not a test! This is an emergency! Flee the scene now! Impending disaster! There was a Ni**a sighting near you and we are not sure of the nature of the threat! Please leave to avoid mental, spiritual and bodily harm!" again I say: This is not a test!
( DAMN, DAMN, DAMN JAMES! personal moment of exasperation!)
In the end of it all, I put foot to that bama. But I did it to myself as well. I knew that the feeling I was getting was not in alignment but somehow I hit the f*(&ing override button and rode out anyway! HOW MANY times have I DONE that! Apparently enough to wake my ass up. But have you done it enough to learn to trust your self. Do you change the station when that beeping sound comes on with an emergency broadcast and just keep on watching the regularly scheduled programming on another channel? WE all do it. WE'RE here to learn how to not do it. I am coming to trust myself more and pay attention when I here that sound. Anytime A fool can get me to cussin, I knew it was coming when I seen um. Should have just given the tight smile and said good night. Should have let go of the "good" southern upbringing that said to be polite. I'm taking on some of one of my good friends "Trini-Brooklyn" style of calling an a((hole and A((HOLE! And letting the SH&8 fall where it may. (bow,bow, bow Aminata Gods favorite Daaahta!) So my friends, there is now at least one bama who knows that its really all right if he don't neva, NEVA, EEVAH call me NO MO! I'm taking my toys and going home. Happy! By the way did I say Happy? I ain't mad. Just free. Its really kind of funny. When God cracks one of them good ole now you know you know better jokes on ya! Hehehehe HeHahahaha! Cause I did. And I do. Know. I will acknowledge what I know and stop wastin time with polite lies and convienent half truths that spare someone's feelings.
PSA: This is not an endorsement for rude and tacky behavior! I repeat... This is not an endorsement for rude and/or tacky behavior! Thanks, Management.
But damn, personal honesty goes a long way. And saves gas too! Think of it as being more eco-friendly. We will stop spending time, gas, and money doing things we don't want to do with people we don't want to do it with. Anyway, I want to give a shout out to all yall that read what I write and will prolly give a more detail to the Bama a)) ish I got myself into last night. Later though. Later. Love you guys. Leave your comments.
This is a test of the emergency broadcast system. This is only a test. If this were an actual emergency you would have been instructed where to turn for additional information. This is only a test...beeeep, beeeeep, beeeeeeeep! You may now return to your regularly scheduled programming.
