little do they know …
August 22, 2008
being a permanent townie in a college town allows for one to …
sleep with one eye open
plan the year’s bar crawl
debrief on all the drama before it even lands …
to set the trends
and the tragedies.
welcome back students!
unsure

rolled my eyes
to keep from being crushed under thought
maybe i was just infatuated with the idea of.
but weren’t they all, too?
and every once. every while.
we turned into something real. something to speak of.
refocused my eyes.
babies
July 10, 2008
while vacaying with my family (including my one-year-old nephew) i decided that i want kids. litte jermainias. sure there would be hard times. but there would also be a certain pep in my step from the joy of raising a child.
the next day i decided that i wanted a pair of gucci loafers, because they too add a certain pep in one’s step.
gucci: 1. babies: 0.
summer backlash
June 9, 2008
and then there’s this brief flash of frustration with summer
that happens … oh, about … now.
because the faaaaabulous summer you had planned
isn’t going to be as easy as planned.
because that sizzlin’ summer
is gonna take a little more heat than you thought.
because the boys of summer have yet to shape up to be the joys of summer.
because the relationships with some of your bestests
go through the worst mood swings.
because you love who you want to be in the summer.
but you don’t love who you might become.
something learned in key west
June 3, 2008
don’t tell a drag queen on the street that you are looking for a “man dog.”
because later that night during her show, she will politely ask for “the young african american gentleman” then proceed to call you out.
on next weekend
May 17, 2008
i will be reunited with some of my faves for a glorious memorial day weekend in ft. lauderdale and key west.
the question is: how many kimonos does one need for such a trip?
just so you know

i’m looking at my birth certificate (i needed it for passport purposes).
and i was born a male.
there are doubts sometimes.
all macs go to heaven?
April 23, 2008
i hope so.
because in one of the most outrageous vacays i’ve been on, my roommate hilariously mananged to flood our room (and damage some others prolly) in a historic hotel.
not so hi-lar was the fact that my old mac was on the floor. apparently water came dripping from the keyboard when they lifted it from the wreckage. the geniuses at the applye store did a bit of gasping when they saw it.
so i was a widow for a few days.
then i upgraded to the wondrous macbook pro. he’s my new boyfriend. he stays on my mind. i think about him all the time. i see him in my dreams.
on friends
