Whole big ass dude

July 28, 2007

I was on the phone yesterday and my friend was telling me about a guy that we grew up with…had a son that was like 16 or 17 years old
Said he was like 6′ 4″ 200+ lbs ..Big dude.

Usually this would mean nothing…esp. since it’s concerning people that are not me (I’m vain)

BUT had me thinking…I’m nowhere NEAR grown enough to be taking care of a whole big ass dude! LOL

Damn, if I had a child…whooooo! It would be tough on em LOL ::I’m kidding”” (not really)

I started to think about all those girls in high school that were pregnant

(That was back when if you were in school and pregnant people looked at you like ‘whore’…now it’s like ‘so…gotta name picked out yet?’)
Bygones.
I mean, if I had a child back then I spose my life would’ve been TOTALLY different…prolly no college (def. not the one I went to) I wouldn’t be living where I am…much less the state.
so maybe with all those changes I would be able to care of a whole big ass dude.
That ish kinda forces you to grow up…

NOW If I had a child they’d be pretty straight…I got a couple of dollars…some pampers and a bib I can handle that lol

But even so I’m still nowhere NEAR as grown as I should be
(Disclaimer…I’m having fun, I know that the things I’m about to type doesn’t make a person grown…I like to ‘typea da funny’ k? k.)

Like I don’t enjoy Wine…actually I think it is nasty as hell.
If I met someone with a child that was like over the age of 7-8 I’d be all like: “Hey what’s up, how are you? Nice to meet you…wait. Is that the NEW Madden!?!? C’mon, I got the Bengals!”
Puahahahaha!

Hell, they might be like “Oh you’re eclectik…you killed me on that Hate the Truth post son…I’ma add you on my myspace page” LOL

On some “Hey ask your son if I can get in his Fantasy Football League” …”Ask your daughter to Tivo The OC for me if we’re going to go out” Puahahahaha

PLUS

If I had a child I’m not sure if the mother would let me raise them the way I’d like…me? I’d flood them with old school stuff; I’d get the DVDs of:
School House Rock
The Letter People
Reading Rainbow
3-2-1 Contact
Mr. Wizard
The Electric Company
Sesame Street
Bugs Bunny
Tom and Jerry
The smurfs
He man
GI Joe
Thundercats

Let them watch THAT shit! …grow up like I did…buy ’em flash cards and shit…board games…Chess..teach ’em to think, to count and spell before they can learn the latest T.I. Lyric or Beyonce gyration.

…and teach em how to play madden and appreciate football Sunday 😉

So, I dunno…I look at these Old ass rappers making young people music…I think I’m too old to be listenin to these lyrics; not because I can’t follow or don’t know what they’re talking about but because they are so ‘dumbed down’ the simplicity insults my intelligence.

I could (prolly am) too old to be typing a damn blog…what am I doing?

I AM thinking about shutting down my myspace page….maybe this page is next…and just keep the message board…what do you think?
K, maybe this post didn’t make any sense…I was just typing; but then again what posts of mine EVER makes sense?

Hope you’re not in a funk…. I mean what really makes one grown?? Everybody has that EXPERIENCE that changes everything, maybe you just haven’t gotten there yet. Doesn’t mean anything, doesn’t change who you are. Everybody can be a big kid from time to time ( it’s how we stay young-lol)… And don’t nothing crazy like shut down webpages or your blog…..you crazy you got some avid readers here. And yes- sometimes your thoughts are like, “WTF?” But nobody’s complainin. It gets thoughts flowing….whats wrong with a little discussion every now and again. I’m sure that when the time comes, you’ll have your own ‘whole big @$$ dude’ to raise and he’ll be just as eclectik as you…..keep your head

Ok, so I finally make myself known, stopped lurking and thang and now you wanna talk about shutting down your blog! WHAT.. I haven’t even seen your myspace page yet.
Seriously, your blog and message boards are totally unique and different from all the others out there. Your blog gives me food for thought, I’ve been reading the archives saying “man, I remember that”. You would be doing an injustice to your online family. Yeah, I just bust my way into the fam. 🙂

I guess I cannot relate. I had to grow up a lil fast because I had to look after myself. I was an only child and my mom did her thing. I was raised by my grandma in part. On the other hand, I had to look after myself because my mom half the time did not pay attention to me. So cleaning up, cooking for myself, even before I graduated high school I went grocery shopping.

I can act like a big kid. But I have to keep into perspective I have a child who is 16 and I have to teach about responsibility. I think most folks who want to not grow up don’t want to think about always being responsible. Yeah, it is nice to be a kid for a while but everything has its place.

I’m NEVER growing up.

I couldn’t imagine having a kid either…’cause dey like wear clothes everyday like I do. I am currently at about a 6 hour wash, dry, fold, iron, hang-laundry cycle about once a week. I can’t be doubling that…I don’t even have a washer and dryer within my four walls. Plus, sometimes I like to eat Cold Stone for lunch or dinner. Can’t do that in front of a kid or breastfeed a baby %1,000 sugar with 892,993 grams of salt..da kid would be stupid.

Now, here is one of the really, really VAIN woman reason. I love my breast round, big and firm….not deflated, flappy, and droopely. Ewwww! I love babies….love my breast more than them snotty nose rug rats!

Proudly A Non-Breeder!

Ok, I agree with shutting down my space, I have one too but am rarely on there and it seems like a waste of time. But MAN! If you shut down your blog, we’re gonna have some serious words!

Being a parent definitely does mature some quite a bit. The fact that there is this other person that relies totally on you. The fact that the type of person they grow up to be is based largely on the morals and values you instill. It’s a huge responsibility, but one I wouldn’t trade for anything in the world.

I used to love me some Electric Company back in the day. I think I still remember the song. Tee hee!

OMG I fucking LOVED the letter people! Reading Rainbow turned me into the book addict I am today so I loved that also.

I’d have to add Fraggle Rock to this list though! That was the shit.

So really how old are you??….beside we are only as old as we let ourselves be..and since you are a man, that means you’ll never be over the age of 8 as all me regardless of age still have that 8 year old in them. Me I’m pretty childish like buying toys like a bag full or plastic army men and playing with them but I think that is what keeps life exciting that when you don’t forget to be a child again and just have fun, you enjoy every thing else more..and it helps with stress.

Sadly I am a lurker but the notion of effacing this blog is such sheer madness that I had to come out of hiding… Reading your blog during my corporate slave hours breaks up the monotony…. it is appreciated!!!! If you take this away… I may have to face a harsh reality… The reality of doing work… the thought alone sends chills up my spine… crackspace on the other hand is different… I don’t have the url for that so it effects me none…but do reconsider deleting this…Gracias…

Who is ready for a kid? I know Im not…I like the role of Auntie/God-Mommy…I love ’em love ’em love ’em…then when they get to acting up, they go home…
But one day I would like to have A child (ONE)…

….but I can’t see it now, right now….My brother (WC) is one of those big azz dudes…has been since he was a teen…that bama would go through like 4 gallons of milk in a week, and his 2 1/2 old son is going to be HUGE just like ’em…I don’t know how my parents did it…I really don’t…I know that bama cost them like $300 every two weeks in food alone….

now, on this blog thing…you have got to be kidding me about shutting this down…myspace yea…but the blog totally different world…so please let’s not go off the deep end….thank ya kindly….

“Damn, if I had a child…whooooo!”: Yup, I dunno how ppl do it, especially in highschool. While I was worrying about breakin curfew, what to wear, and stressin about my hair, some chicks were popping out babies and trippin over baby daddies. Man…even now, In my mid-twenties, I cant see a baby happenin. My life is pretty sweet, I wanna keep it that way! I have to agree with T.C. and Divine Lav. the saggin boobs r a no-no 4 me! Shit, when did I get so shallow! Maybe in my forties I’ll adopt and Asean babygirl!

E, if u shut down your blog, you’ll have to email me dimelines and random thoughts!

I love being a parent, pre-baby, i had absolutely NO motivation. Zero now i have 2 degrees and hope to have a third one day. U get to still act goofy and have an excuse to go see movies like Shrek n Transformers. LOL

Yes havin a kid forces u to grow up but it doesnt mean roll over and die. Im a MILF and i take pride in that. There are plenty of chicks who dont have kids and have saggy titties. lol

To eachs own i guess!
India

LMAO!!! I am totally agreeign with Creem! I had no motivation before my daughter. And you do have to mature faster but hell it’s bound to happen, but now it’s by force.

But I have one question: What’s up with people thinking your breasts turn into flapjacks when you have a baby???? Mine got bigger and rounder. I was actually in love with my after baby body! Not to toot my own horn but I am SOOOO hot right now! LMAO!!!
