tea.

i have this ill obsession w/it. i drink it all day,
everyday. all kinds, white, green, black, herbal,
fruity, etc etc etc.


people always think i'm crazy when i tell them
that tea is my medicine. i don't believe in taking
medication for shit. i don't like the doctors, i don't
think they're out to help heal me but that's a whole
other topic.

as of late, my body has been breaking down on me.
and while i know i could stand to eat better & exercise
more, i hardly ever do either. so i've been feeling super
achey, sluggish, weird pains in my tummy, horrible
migraines & instead of medicating myself, i've been
drinkin' extra cups of white & green tea.


listen to what i'm telling you: it has helped. it IS helping.
admittingly, my pains aren't completely gone but the
tea is helping to relieve any inflamation i got goin' on &
relaxing my muscles. not to mention the awesome benefits
of white & green tea. i'm sippin' on some regular ol' lipton
green tea right now & feelin' pretty calm. no sugar though,
the sugar has been my tummy do flips. shit, good thing i
am not fuckin' bc it sure does sound like i got a bun in
the oven and we all know, it'd be the cruelest joke in the
universe if God made me Mary numero II.



14 days, two weeks exactly, til i'm drinkin', eattin', laughin',
talkin' shit, being all boo'd up & all the other great shit
that is definitely going to come out of me being in chicago.



peace.

northern lights.

i am in the middle of starting something
pretty amazing, at least i think so. it's
an up north affair. a midwest situation.
a northern light in the south of florida.


18 more days 'til chicago.

18 more days
'till i get to chill w/one of my best friends.
18 more days
'til i'm shinin' just as bright
right next to this northern light i got aimed
at me.
18 more days
'til me & bea do nothing
but sit in bars, drink, eat, laugh & talk shit about
everything & nothing.
18 more days
'til i'm able to understand what it is to open myself
up fully to him.

chicago is good to me. you must understand this.


**************************************************************

moving onto the daily grind of it all:

i'm currently sitting at my desk blasting Maze live in
L.A. mannnnnnn, this shit has got me all sorts of happy.
i'm not even upset that i'm at work right now.

this morning there was a hint of coolness. a sign of
cooler weather coming our way in the M.I.A? or perhaps
i sign that i need to be up north? who knows. what i do
know though, is that miami could stand for a "cold" front.

this weekend i found myself in a shoppin' mood. i know,
weird. i hate shoppin' but i needed some shit for my
chicago trip. i hit the mall & while i was seriously upset
the whole way there, once i hit a few of my favorite stores,
shit was smoooth. my adventure was not in vain bc i
sure did find everything i was lookin' for & more.


have a great day, world. the sun is shining & the weather
is sweet.


peace.
