hello werld. how's it goin? been a minute, but it's been a hectic one as usual. i've had a chance to ketchup with some fabulous folks who have graced me with allowing my prescence to compliment their essences...starting with sista Viet Nam, who I saw speak about her adventures and family almost 2 years ago, and our paths and families have crossed a 1/2 dozen times since...she's back and we got to talk about love and life and family and Sai Gon. her best advice passed thru her uncle: "quit looking for a good person, BE a good person". word.
I had lotsa chicken feets with my daddy and we talked about signs, my mother being an ox, which is the most conflicted sign to my sheepness, and it doesn't match his, and his don't match mines, so I can see how as a family we never worked out. I got a letter delivered to his house though, from my former stepsister, Teena Marie, and we arranged to meet because she ended up in Vancouver right then with her man. I brought along Bash and Mozaik and laughs and conversations were had by all in that posh Yuppie Yaletown Cactus Club. it was so weird to see her as a beautiful grownass intelligent well-spoken woman, because i remember her at 8. Nutz. she's gonna be moving out this way sometime soon, so maybe i'll have a sister of my own, instead of being admiringly envious of the Reyes sisters.
Mozaik and I had a chance to be silly and get caught up and we giggled about Dr.Octagon's nutty lyrics, and burnt some cds...got hooked up with the queen of all hiphop, BahamaD, and have been bangin' it ever since. We stirfried, then went to the chiropractor so I could show off some of my newly minted fitness theory knowledge in two pairs of glasses, one from a nun. We caught Bigz' play and I'm glad to see her doing her thing.
I'm trying to maintain my posture, and i'm feeling a bit of lactic acid buildup, but i did pilates this morning, cooked, and went to the gym. Feelin' pretty proud of that...but like jlo said "and nothing in this world's gonna bring me down"....all4now.
