Did you know that the 2005 Black Blog Awards site is up and accepting votes?? Guess not. Well now you know. I’m not sure which of the categories I have the best chance of winning. Which do you think?? Let’s all vote for ME in one category. No need in splinting my votes!!
Now that we’ve gotten that out of the way…
I spent a lot of time on my couch this weekend. Matter-fact, as I begin this entry, I’m sitting where?? On my couch!! And a lovely couch it is. Did you know if you take the back cushions off, it’s the size of a twin bed?? Quite comfy for an afternoon nap. On Saturday, I caught up on lots of TV. Watched the Real World. And there was this one situation. Wrote an entry bout it. Like to read it, well here goes…And yes, I know that’s not how the saying goes exactly, but whatever.
The one guy who got his faced smashed, don’t ask me his name, was having an issue. For the sake of this blog, I’m gonna call him Jason. He is really digging one of the roomate chicks. He and her have been seeing each other. But like on night two, he got hit in the face and has been layed up unable to party. So he hasn’t been able to meet other women. The time comes where he gets his stitches out and can hit the clubs. The other two guys, let’s call them Steve and Dave (the Black one) are hyped. Jason is a little unsure of how he should proceed. Should he ‘wild out’ like Steve and Dave or focus on the roomate chick he really-really likes. The way it’s shown, Dave keeps his mouth shut. But Steve suggests he dump the roomate chick he really likes in exchange for the groupie chicks they meet when they go out. One thing I forgot to mention, Steve has the hots for the roomate chick too!!!
My problem is that Jason, for a brief moment, was actually listening to Steve. Steve was just being a hater. And my question is: Why can’t men see when their friends are just being hateful?? Are men just that trusting?? That blinded by the man code of loyalty–which doesn’t really exist?? In the end, after a night of drinking, Jason realized that he really wanted roomate chick and not the floozies he’d meet at bars.
Hold up!!! Did y’all know Adam Levine of dammit-I-love-you-even-though-you’re-too-thin-for-my-tastes fame is on a song with Kanye West. On Kanye’s new album?? Did anyone know?? And if you did, why the hell didn’t you tell me??
Back to the subject at hand…The way it works in my world…Oh I didn’t tell you I have a world…If one my so-called friends tells me anything, gives me any advice, solicited or unsolicited, I closely consider who it’s coming from. How does she benefit from me listening to her advice? Is she someone who speaks from experience or any place of knowing? Is she just a hater who says things like, “You don’t always have to be the center of attention.” Because I didn’t want to go out socializing in sweat-pants. Sheesh…Ugly b*tch! Dammit, I almost got heated all over again. I’m suspicious like that!! Most broads are untrustable when it comes to men. There, I said it! So then why don’t men think the same way?? Or maybe it’s because the kids on the Real World are so young. I wish. I’ve seen it happen with men who are way older than those kids.
Speaking of men and friends…I had this dude. To make a long story (which people who read the old-old blog will know) short, he cheated, we broke up. For years later, he still sniffed around. What was worse is that his friends would often campaign on his behalf. But I’d like to know where they were when his ass was cheating?? Shouldn’t they have stepped up then?? Cus isn’t that what friends do?? Step up when another friend is about to mess up and do something he will regret for years?? Not to say that he would have listened. But they came tryna help a day late. Cus that’s what I try to do for my friends. Even if they don’t listen, I say something then shut the heck up. I don’t encourage craziness. But that’s just me. By the way, tonight I saw the episode of FRIENDS. Y’all remember. THE EPISODE that started that whole thing last year?
But what exactly is it that stops men from seeing through their friends’ bullshyt?? Huh? Anyone?? Anyone?? Beuler? I’m open to reasonable suggestions and wild speculation.
