Its been a while since I have been on this site. So hi. A lot has happened since I last wrote on here. But I’m not going to go over that. Now is this. A a new life in Greensboro, NC. Its like starting over. I like my new place, neighborhood and city. Still have to find a job, but not too worried about that now. I have faith. I think I will start writing more on here. Till then, enjoy life.

This man, James Verone, robbed a bank for one dollar.
Why only one dollar?
Because he knew that in prison he could get the medical care he could not afford with his part time salary as a convenience store clerk. He was approved for food stamps, but they did little to help his finances. Between his back problems, carpel tunnel, and arthritis, he simply couldn’t handle the pain any longer.
On June 9th, he sent a letter to his local paper, the Gaston Gazette, that stated: “When you receive this a bank robbery will have been committed by me. this robbery is being committed by me for one dollar. I am of sound mind but not so much sound body.”
He then took a cab to the RBC Bank, and handed the teller a note asking for one dollar and medical attention. He quietly took a seat in the lobby and waited for police to arrive.
Since Verone only stole one dollar, he was only charged with larceny. His bail, which he doesn’t plan to pay is set at $2,000, reduced from the normal $100,000. He’s scheduled to see a doctor this Friday, and hopes to get foot surgery, back surgery and to have a protrusion on his check treated.
To me, this is the perfect example of how disturbingly corrupt and unjust our health care system has become under HMO’s. For this man, or any person for that matter, feels that he needs to be imprisoned just to see a doctor, is ridiculous.
I honestly can’t even think of words. The story says it all.

I really can’t wait to get my life straight. I am currently taking the steps I need to get to that level of comfortability that I want. Its just a matter of waiting for the pieces to become available so it will fit my puzzle properly. I know where they need to go, its just a slight delay. My life is a PC, Imma need for it to Mac the fuck up.
why do girls come complain to me about all the guys that they date are assholes when they are talking to one who is not an asshole? It frustrates me to no end.

To H.E.R. It May Concern,
I heard your voice again for the first time almost 5 years ago, bring some warmth to this [J] Cole World of music.
It made me [9th] Wonder why that man Mr. N. Jones pronounced you dead so soon. And when you came back, I felt you speaking to me, as Lup E as…
25 songs, 25 days - Day 13: A Song that reminds you of a former friend
50 Cent - I Get Money
I really don’t have “former” friends as far as cutting them off… I just have friends I don’t talk to as much as I used to.
That said, I miss my Black Men For Change brethren from WSSU. This was our Party Hop song.
BMC! We All We Got!
3 I want to tumbl something, but I don’t know what to tumbl. Is the word “tumbl” even a word? Is that how you say you want to write something on tumblr? Hmmm, can someone please enlighten me. My roommate slash apple of my eye is picking on me right now. She doesn’t understand my thought process, she doesn’t know me. Wait, if she reads this she’s gonna be like, “really?” I don’t need that right now. I’m watching her study. And by “watching” I mean, not paying attention, and by “study” I mean procrastinating. You know what they say, “Procrastination is like masturbation, in the end you’re only screwing yourself.” Speaking of which I haven’t masturbated in a while. Thats very odd, for me. Not tryna call myself out, but I’m impressed. I was also impressed by my dates muscial taste last night at the social. See, I went to a sorority social and was asked out by a friend. Shes cool, but I didn’t think she would know the lyrics to The Yin Yang Twins or Marvin Gaye. Thats pretty cool. Like Iceman. Not Chuck Liddel, but Bobby Drake. I’ve always been a fan of Nightcrawler though. Kurt Wagner is my shit. So is Deadpool. Wow, I guess I did have something to tumbl. Impressive!
