""Put the gun down. C'mon, put up your dukes. Now..." it's Friday "
Mr. Jones: Aw, man... your mother and I never would've moved to this neighborhood if we'd known you need a gun to walk down the damn street. Craig: You know how it is 'round here. Mr. Jones: Oh, no, son. That's not the way it is. You kids have been nothin' but punks. Sissified. So quick to pick up a gun. Too scared to take an ass-whipping. This is what makes you a man. When I was growing up, this was all the protection we needed. You win some, you lose some. But you live, you live to fight another day! Now you think you're a man with a gun in your hands, don't you? Craig: I'm a man without it. Mr. Jones: Put the gun down.
Mr. Jones: C'mon, put up your dukes.
Mr. Jones: Now you're a man. Your uncle picked up a gun, too. He found out the hard way. Twenty-two years old. You've got a choice. This is all you need, alright?
It's Friday again...... What're your plans... I'm still working on relaxing this neck I threw out sleeping. Kids coming on Satyrday.. one week left until vacay... everything is a mess so everything will need to be tidied... first and foremost my weekend plans involve not going to work for 2 days and trying to ensure that time passes as slowly and blissfully as possible.

This weekend we are going to the bounce place so my daughter can jump around for a minute. May try to find a splash place for the kids.
I have to print out some work for my portfolio for this interview next Friday
Also gotta take a piss test at the crib

I'm sure the gravy train will run out eventually.... good luck with your interview and pee test etc...... I'd be miserable if I had to test like that.. pass or fail I just resent the personal invasion.. I mean if I was operating heavy machinery or xyz type of role where it was critical fine but for your average non mission critical grind dear employer stay the F out of my personal life thank you.... labor rights be getting slaughtered these days... I remember growing up everything was union... now it's the opposite.. everything is a beat down you have to say thank you for.

they love their guns so everyone has at least one... and with my brain farts...I can easily be knocked off lol
by way of example... Sometimes I have the kids stand in the check out line while I continue to shop. On this particular day, someone walked off and left their cart in the check out line. When I walked up, I say to the kids...”whose cart is this?” . The kids look at me crazy. A guy walks up, “it’s mine”. I was bothered by his reply. Yet, I know he was probably by mine too. I didn’t say anything but, I wanted too...

my mind stays eviscerating folks though.
on transit is the time I find this most challenging with people bumpinginto me with their back packs, and non deodorant wearing stinklinbs, and horrifically weaponized breath literally stealing the oxygen from my airways.... such a brutal daily exercise in repressing disgust frustration and aggression... I need to start burning my own fossil fuels before I end up in jail.
5. "Wanna set up one of those romantic movie nights like in the movies" In response to Reply # 0
You know, the ones where the happy couple is eating some chinese food/pizza out of the box...on the floor...watching a movie...candles or whatever...then the dog comes out of nowhere and jumps on one of our laps and we laugh and pretend like it's the cutest thing ever?
I'm tryna get that going tonight...we'll see.
Prolly drive some Uber this weekend...tryna stack loot for this St Augustine trip in a couple of weeks. The kid asked if I would take her to Little 5 Points to get a poster or two this weekend, so I'll be doing that prolly tomorrow as well. Wanted to go to a Braves game but my neighbor...you know the one.."I can get you Braves tickets whenever you want them" has yet to come through for me.
Sunday, since our regular pastor is gone for the month, we wont be doing church, lol. I'll prolly work some more on this website and jump on this SQL class im tryna take online.
Hopefully I resist the temptation to buy more records..
6. "I have about two crates worth from the last week sitting by my front doo..." In response to Reply # 5
Haven't felt like lugging them up to the third floor, where I keep my equipment. Every time I go digging it seems like I'm finding mad stuff now, to the dismay of my studio space. I need new shelves, ASAP.
13. "lol... i gave up on that idea long ago" In response to Reply # 7
I mean as a DJ the sets I come up with are hardly in the marketable realm in terms of gigging.. the music I produce and sample for is even less accessible... and I could never open a record store because I wouldn't want to sell any of them unless I had triplicates lol..
nope it boils down to love and compulsion... and the satisfaction I get from the ritual end to end.
as for storage I have 24 crates worth of shelf space.. I recently re-orged and put some away because I wanted to put some books back in shelves too... now I don't have all my records or all my books in shelves... but I also don't readily have room for more shelves..first world problems FML.
16. "What your sets like?" In response to Reply # 13
You never know...somebody somewhere likes what you like.
Hopefully I can get this website going (kinda like a "vinylpr0n" site) and make it marketable. I know I don't wanna open a store. It was hell getting rid of stuff on discogs, so I know a brick and mortar is out of the question...for me it is at least.
I found a cheap, cheap shelf in Goodwill on lunch for our books, but I know my wife is gonna hate it, lol. Besides the fact that its not big enough, it's kinda ugly. But it's 15 bucks... *shrug*
18. "keep meaning to upload some" In response to Reply # 16
maybe I'll do that this weekend finally... you got any suggestions on where? I'm thinking Youtube will shut most of them down over copyright.. i suppose I can always try.

That's hilarious & right on point. I hope you get it going though. Good luck.

will/can work there as well imo.... I mean I'm old I'm not trying to be on the floor mainly because I'm really not trying to get my self up off that floor later...
