The Rundown

hehe! once again i'm late. Perhaps i should move to Mars. I could use that extra 37 minutes.. So how are you? as for me i had a long wkend. There was this naija party i had to DJ on friday, which btw was still fairly packed at 5am. Atlanta people like to do Faaji (Party). Saturday was for errands, and then on sunday i went to my friend Bukky's house to lounge and watch naija movies with her, plus she gave me plenty naija food (moi moi, fried rice, Jollof, delicious Spaghetti,Stew with Shaki, etc..) to take home with me. haha! you jealous huh? well i don't have it like that, she's just a really thoughtful girl. We both attended Government college ikorodu back in Naija. I graduated in '97, she finished in '98. We crossed path again in yankee around '05. This time thru a good friend of mines owolabi that also happened to attend the same secondary school. You're probably thinking - "..small world..". Well heck yeh it is!. You better be good to people as you pass thru this world cos you just never know. Karma is not the only reason to be good my friend. It's good to be good to others. i know your momma told you this while growing up so we're not gonna waste key strokes on that today.

Speaking of women, i'm still trying to figure out what about a woman attracts me the most. Every guy likes a nice looking babe (whatever your definition of nice looking). I've met women so fine, just getting her phone # alone makes me wanna do backflips talkless of hanging with her. BTW I don't know how to do backflips. Under my correct senses, I would be scared for fear of breaking my neck, but one time i actually did a full backflip in a parking lot after obtaining this girl's number. The very same # for which many guys tried and failed that night lol..

Ok so i get the number, the babe starts to scatter my head, we get to hang out, i'm on the phone with her and my mumsy beeps on the other line and i dont switch over to even just say "hey mom how are you? can i call you back later?", i dey fashee my homeboys to hang with her and sturve..then what? well as it turns out after a while, perhaps 3-6 months down the line after hanging fulltime with the babe and getting to know her really well, i realize - perhaps it wasnt love at first sight after all. More like Lust at first sight.

As i meet women along the way and get to interact, i get a better understanding of the things that matter most to me in order to be able to sustain a healthy relationship with that woman. would i choose a sexy babe with a knockout body but with unattractive characters over an average looking babe with good morals, knows to cook delicious food that makes me come running home like i need to catch a game on TV? The type we refer to as "Wifey Material".

I once met this really good looking naija girl and we got to know each other. I aint goin lie - i pictured a possibility of her being my wifey someday. However she was the sturborn bonehead type, it was her way or the highway. She could run her mouth, arguing her point till tomorrow. For example if i said "oh this person can sing" or "person X always dresses nice" she'll be like "uuhm i dont think so" even if everyone and including you will clearly agree with me. she was just too much, i had to downgrade her from VIP status to coach mehn!. Imagine marrying someone like that. She could be a major pain in the ass, maybe even end up in divorce. who needs that extra stress with everything that's going on today. Now when we talk over the phone and she asks if i wanna hangout and i reply "no", she'll be like "You know you want me.." lmao! I just laff, Omo, levels don change. This is probabally beginning to sound personal, but it's not. Really!.

Can love possibly come before lust or lust must come before love. if this was a JAMB exam question, i'd probly answer the latter. Watch out for my wifey list lol..it's really not much. but at least now you know i don't dig bonehead chics. Being Assertive and being boneheaded and mouthy are two completely different things.

Remember that my good friend owolabi i mentioned earlier? he's actually a great friend. He helped me a lot back when i was struggling to find work after graduating from college. Another friend even gave me his car to drive when i found this penny paying job as a cablevision tech support specialist in long island, NY. You need one or two friends like this to get thru life. I miss my boys tho. They're among the few things i miss from relocating from NYC to ATL. Def Blog worthy.
