BB More than just a status symbol

I finaly get it!
After resisting the urge to have a BB to “floss” I now understand its true draw. BB is a social Network/club that the entry fee is a bberry.

Slowly but surely I am becoming addicted to this device, and i find myself on it more often than not.Truly i am seeing the intoxicating draw of the “Always On” phenom and I like it :-/

My co worker just borrowed my charger because she could not afford to miss out on a convo going on on facebook…. much less being unavailable on the bbchat. Sadly I now realize I was wrong to think BB was a device for snobs, Directors and CEO’s. The truth is, it is that and more. In fact It is primerily  a device for the Young Working class members of our society (mostly)… It is we who truly exploit its potential beyond constant access to ones email.

What does this mean for me? I am not addicted enough to buy one for myself, but now more than ever I know i will only be happy with a phone with a qwerty Keyboard and internet access.

A Good Day

My Friday was a good day.

It actually started from Thursday, when i decided to skip work early and go to the gym. It was painful, but i felt good at the end. After practice i decided to go to work, once i got there I was good to go. The work vibe stayed with me till five the next morning…
Of course i am on a High after that.

I get home and sleep till 9:30 when a friend (“Tek di wyne”) callls me to remind me i promised to take her to the beach  that day… so i was up again (approx 3 hours sleep) to pick her up and head to the beach. She recommended sugarmans beach, but my brain (tired as it was) was on autopilot and drove straight to frenchmans cove. No horrors there, except frenchmans is too ruff for her to get any decent swimming done, add to that the brown water and constant seaweed was not very appealing. I found myself thinking thinking (as i normally do) that the worst beach in Mobay is WAY better than this (and if i feel this way can you imagine how ppl from Negril feel <sigh>).
So of course, i being idle, decide to go see why she thinks this sugarmans beach is so much better

WOW!!!!

Better is an understatement….. Freanchmans is coastline with sand while sugarmans is a beach.

Now dont get me wrong, its no Negril beach, or doctors cave…. but having seeing not much worth hoping for on my nation’s southern coastline (disclaimer: i have not explored much beyond Kingston and St. Catherine) to see white sands and clear and calm water accessible from the mainland was a wonderful novelty.

So i spend a few hours at a real beach….. YAY!

After leaving i am dead tired, I drop my friend of and then head home to bath and change to get food and then move pans for a rehearsal that night.

Note: i get home at 2pm, moving is at 4pm. i have two hours. 

I get home, and as i am heading for the bath I sit in the bed. Who tell mi fi go do that!? Next thing i remember someone is calling me at four asking me where i am…. oops.  

In any case that nap was good.

Now, every thing from then on is constant work and driving up and down, I dont mind I like being productive, But i digress…

Practice runs later than i wanted so i do not reach mass camp till 11. To be honest, I was so tired by then that i felt like dropping. Already some ppl were calling a texting saying they werent gonna make it, kinda killing the vibe a bit. But BIG UP! to the Die hard Wyning Criminals crew… there will always be a posse at mas camp, so i was good. Still i expected to just sip some liquor and rock for the whole night……

Fortunately DJ Chrome and DJ Smoke and 2 ladies at the bar had other plans for me. ..
Suffice it to say i could not tell you if my high was from music or the liquor… I do know they amplified each other.
Friday was one of the BEST nights for the year It was HYPE!!! Loved it! 

So much so actually that now i am gonna try to source funding to go to beach jouvert… not looking good… but i am gonna try

In any case, at the end we lymed inside mass camp till well after everyone had left. While dropping home ppl I decided to put on some calypso oldies…. SWEEEEEEEEET. In fact Trini and Vincy wyne refused to leave my vehicle when they reached there destination until i stopped the CD. 

I got home at 3am on Saturday and fell asleep with a BIG smile on my face.

Friday was a good day.

Its My fault!?

It has been brought to my attention by an number people that it is widley believed that I am to blame for the sharp Decline in the Number of lymes. It has been said that had I not been selfish and gone and got myself a GF things would be Different…..

First Of i would like to categorically state that ANY & EVERY-ONE can call a lyme.
Secondly why is it my fault?.. why not Le… she clearly had a hand in my leaving Monk-dom.

Having said this.. I will also say that seeing that just about everybody is Getting ‘hitched’ every one is spending a good portion of the “lyme time” with their respective spoogies… I cannot be held responsible for that.

As we start the summer and are at the hight of Concert Practice.. I do expect more lymes to be called….. and as such I hope the number of lymes will be to your Satisfaction……
