She Got It From Her Mama

Hung out with and had lunch with my mom...I miss her already... Hopefully I can get out to Cali again in December. It would be nice to at least spend Christmas with her and my big head brothers.

So Proud Of You...

This post is just a short one to mention how proud I am of my friend Nick Young...

Someone asked me about him yesterday. They wanted to know what Nick was like in high school; and it made me smile to be able to honestly say that he was and still is a very fun and easygoing guy....I had to admit that like most teenage boys he was also extremely immature and that was annoying at times. LOL. But he was just one of those people that made going to school fun.

Most people now know him as a member of the Washington Wizards. I am sooooo super duper proud of him for making it to the NBA; that was his dream and he worked hard to get there. There were times when his goal seemed unattainable due to academic circumstances and other personal issues he was struggling with off the court/ outside of school, but he never gave up on himself or let it alter his spirits. That is commendable....I am proud that Nick stayed humble, never forgets where he came from and I am elated to see him growing and maturing as a player. He has alot to offer the league and his talents will impress fans; just give him time...he's dope! ( LOL, yes I am bringin' back that old school slang)

YES WE DID!

I am so overwhelmed at the outcome of the election that I keep crying tears of joy.
I never thought that I would see the day that a strong, intelligent, compassionate Black man would be the president of the United States. I don't even have the words to fully express my emotions. I am so proud and I believe in democracy again. Obama said "Yes we can." ...Together WE DID!

We don't need 40 acres and a mule when we have 50 states and the white house.
