Holidaze, circa 2009

Posted in Life with tags , , , on November 29, 2009 by a.don.is

I always approach the holidays with a small sense of dread.  I dont exactly know why.  It’s almost like I expect something bad to happen.  It never really does, but it dosent stop me from feeling that way.  It’s not like some tragic thing has even happened to me during the holidays.  I dunno…

Anyway, this turkey day went rather well.  Aliyah and I took a drive over to the D to spend it with Mom, Zo and Deon.  Got up there just before noon Thursday, which turned out to be perfect timing.  Helped Mom finish preparing and set the table.  Of course we were waiting on Zo to show up.  Finally about 1:20ish he pops in.  Surprise surprise he’s got yet another “new” girlfriend.  Some chick named Ebony.  With three little kids in tow. Sigh. I dont know what makes him do it LOL  This chick, Ebony, at least seemed cognizant of her surroundings. She could hold a conversation.  And she seems to have established discipline in her kids.  Mom kind of played her blase but thats Mom for you.  Zo seems happy so thats all I care about.

Food was awesome of course.  Very traditional fare.  Turkey, ham, candied yams, baked mac & cheese, cranberry sauce, dressing, greens, corn bread, rolls, the works!  Afterwards we all hung out just chit chatting, catching up on things, cracking jokes and what not.  Zo and his “crew” skated out early of course.  Still it was a good evening…

Don’t know whats up for Christmas yet.  Probably wont travel.  Depends on the weather mostly. We’ll see…

A distant memory…. LOL

Wow!  I had totally forgotten about this blog LOL  I was doing a search on myself ( i do that every so often.  Good to know whats out there with your name on it 😉 ) and it popped up.  I didnt even remember having a blog on WordPress, but hey it’s all good.

I think I’m going to actually give this thing another try.  Althought between Twitter and facebook, I dont know exactly what I’ll have left over to talk about here LOL

So anyway, this is the return of my blog.  Huzzzah! LOL

Michigan

Another post from the Ipod LOL I swear this thing has become attached to my body! LOL

I have a definate love/hate thing with Michigan. I love the state. It’s beautiful! Especially the west coast (sorry Detroit). Lake Michigan is as close to an “ocean” as a lot of folks will ever get. Awesome beaches! Lighthouses, panoramic vistas… I know I sound like a brochure but it’s true LOL

On the other hand, the economy sucks. The roadways are horrible. Drugs are everywhere. And DONT get me started about the weather! 30 degrees one day and 75 the next and snow 2 days later! Only in Michigan…

But everytime I leave it, I keep coming back to it LOL something keeps pulling me back. So I guess this is where I belong…maybe I’ll finally make it up to Mackinac this summer!
