Rain Rain Go Away...



I'M TRYING TO GO OUT AND PLAY...

It seems like every year rain or work messes up my Beale Street Music Festival plans...Last night I wanted to a hear Jack Johnson do his thing on the river front...

But it looked like Woodstock down their...And you know how black people are when it come to social gatherings, rain, and mud...Just don't mix...But the white folks were down their crunkaseva (new word)...
I mean look at Becca...

Ain't know way in hell...

So I decided to go to a house party...One of my bruhs was throwing it...I wasn't gonna go...Just have a blockbuster night...I cooked (baked catfish, garlic mashed potatos, and green peas)...Once I ate all of that I popped in the movie...And then I heard the rain tapping my window...A few minutes later...Knocked the hell out! But then my phone started ring off the charts...It was a one of the bruhs telling me about a party that they just planed 5 minutes ago...I told them I might stop through (just lying to get him off my phone)...Then folks start calling me every other minute about this party...And then some of my undergrad running mates called me up...All I have to say is the power of a text message...So I decided to get up and put on clothes and head out...It was a "moving party"...No furniture in the place...The only thing left was dj equipment and a full stocked bar...The place was crowded from top to bottom...It was cool...Until...

The dj started throwing in some of that grind music...And it turned into to a scene off a R. Kelly video...WTF? In heat is all I have to say about that...While we are talking about Kells, if you haven't picked up his new movie...

Go copp that!
Anyway back to the story...It was time for me to go...I'm too grown to be at some ish like this...So I took my e-s-s to the house...That proves to me that some niggas just don't grow up...Now I see why sometimes I'm left outside of the loop of some of my old running mates...Cause they ain't about letting it go...I mean don't get me wrong it's cool to do some throwback type of sh!t every once in a while...But there is a line you must not cross...And they were some line-steppers last night...I just wish I had more friends in a 30 mile vicinity that I can have chill time with...All my close friends are spread out all over the country...It sucks...Well enough on that...

I just hope it clears up by Sunday so I can see...

I'm not sure what it is about my people and mud either. I'll have to bring up the question at our next secret meeting of The Man. ;)

Damn that catfish and potatoes sound good....
