Maybe…
He was everything. Not literally, but he was pretty dope. Good looking. Sense of style. Tattoos. All of his teeth perfectly aligned. I noticed him when he first walked in the venue. The conversation I was having with my girls was laced with furtive glances at him. Eventually, I approached him and a dialogue ensued as I inquired … Continue reading
Radar: Big Soon “Honor Roll”
I had to do a quick post about Soon’s latest video for the track “Honor Roll” from The Reformation. The Reformation is Soon’s first solo effort and well worth the listen. Tracks like “Last Hope” and “The Warning” have generated buzz as fan favorites, however “Honor Roll” is my personal favorite. As the closing track, it hits … Continue reading

I’d probably even have on of … Continue reading

Yes, I know that my Daddy (as … Continue reading

So if the world attacks, and you slide off track. Remember one fact, I got your back. I love my nephew. Words can’t even express how much this little dude means to me. I love him so much, I can’t even fathom what it will be like to have my own children. The thought of … Continue reading
If I Could…
If I could , I’d protect you from the sadness in your eyes… I remember reading my friend Malorie’s blog a few months ago and pointing at the computer screen because I could relate to every sentiment she expressed. Malorie wrote about how she has always been in tune with her emotions, and recognized this even as … Continue reading
