i had a very trying conversation with the mother of my oldest daughter on the way in to work this morning. we've never seen eye to eye on pretty much anything and although i love my daughter to death, her mother has never been one of my favorite...

Hey, I wanted to ask you....
Do you think hip hop has lost a bit of it's funk? I think a lot of commercial stuff is more R&B laden than it used to be. I'm not mad at R&B, but I prefer the older true rhythm and blues stuff as opposed to pop R&B now.
I dig underground acts that can bring the boom bap and others that try to push the boundaries, but I miss the funk.
What are your thoughts?

europe's largest waffle factory is situated in nuth, the netherlands, where a variety of waffles made up of two thin waffles with a spread of sugar cane syrup or sometimes maple syrup in between is popular.
pass it on.

i cant even begin to explain how my revised outlook on things has improved my situation even within a relatively short time period. ed mcmahon hasnt pulled the publishers clearing house van up to my doorstep just yet, but other than that, everything is absolutely groovy.

I know how you feel, I have been trying to find faith, and just be happy in general. I think we are at the age in our lives where we realize what truly matters. I will watch that vidoe when i get a bit more time. 
sinjun:
yeah, your post was rather long and the video is an hour and half. I really liked what I saw in the first 15 minutes, but I will have to watch the rest later. I have been in a negative mindset lately. I know that doesn't help me, so thanx to you I get a kick in the ass to redirect my thoughts so that things will get better.
look at the time (late).

Wow, definitely time to get out of there. Unless you're CEO, you got to C you're way home.
Excellent blog RE: Action. That's good stuff.......

she waits for me naked, partially concealed by the covers. as i finish brushing my teeth, i exit the bathroom to the darkened bedroom now bathed in the softglow of low lighting as Zero 7's sultry melodies float in the air.

I have no clue what that is 
i will probably miss my weekly therapy session tomorrow, so this post is designed to compensate. its pretty fucking long and somber. so if you want, check out some light hearted humor instead.
sometimes i wonder if i am doing the right thing because i have never EVER been as close to being evicted as i am right now.

It's always hard when it comes to money and family. We have always had a hard time financially...funny thing is, my hubby makes a decent amount, but we have always managed to be behind, shuffling bills, ect...but then we get caught up for a bit, and all is well again. We work in jobs we don't like, but we have to pay the bills, and dont have the means to start a usiness that we would like...if this is something you are able to do somewhat comfortably, then do it...just make sure you have a roof over your head...maybe you can cut back in other area's to help you have more money, but dont give up your dream!!
its been a crazy day. nothing better than a little comedy to make things better.
bepps:
Haha that's fantastic!
its AMAZING what a good night's sleep can do. zombie boy is gone and i am feeling pretty damn refreshed. a bit groggy...as if i just woke from one of those cryogenic stasis chambers they used in Aliens...but that will pass after a shower and some eats. of course, the effect is only for a while because i have massive amounts of shit to do...

That's because Avalon is an absolute sweetie that i love to pieces!!!...ok, about the school...you gotta be careful with that, most "people" get all bent about porn, parents when it comes to their kids are fiercly protective whethere they truly need to be or not...so just be extra careful, not everyone is open-minded.
topaz:
No problem. I hate it when people get their panties in a twist over something silly and it turns into a snowball effect. I actually checked out your profile and website yesterday after I posted the comment. I really really liked what I saw in the tour of your site and I loved how you directly state that you are a sensual person and if people are looking for something stereotypical, they should go elsewhere. You appear to actually love women and that respect is rare in the industry.
That's a really tough decision about continuing volunteering at the school. You seem like you have an excellent head on your shoulders, though, so I'm sure you'll make the right decision.
