Hi guys,

I'm going out of town and hanging out with family for a day.

In the mean time, to ALL of you, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

Hi everyone:

For starters, I want to say thanks to all of you who continue to visit my end of the online world.

Its been a rough 2009 and I am extremely indebted to each of you who have commented a million times, encouraged me more times than once and tolerated my whining!!

And then....it hit me.....I'm supposed to be an example....as a minister....as a writer...as a "fellow creative" just like the rest of you....I should be a better example than what I have been for the past two years.

So......things are changing..........from here on out.......you will hear me be A LOT more encouraging and on point with my journals, and you will see MORE of my work coming out.

Do continue to support me as I support you guys.....and should I miss anyone, forgive me, and let a brotha know....and I will rectify that by rolling over to your scene just as you have for me countless times!!

Thanks again and ALL of your support this awesome year.

AND MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL OF YOU GUYS (and yes, the ladies too...LOL) !!!

Should be......interesting.........I'll report back late tonight.

.........uh.......ok......NO.......I will not finish that sentence......I'm sure you have all heard that rap song and by now are sick and tired of it......frankly, as am I.

Speaking of rap songs.......that party I went to last week was a bit "ghetto" for my taste. I'm all about a little sophistication and intellect in my women, so the good news is, I know what I DON"T want in the next lady of interest in my life.

Besides that........incredibly busy.......thinking about where I will go to try and study and earn my Master's.....that is if I go anytime soon......still thinking and praying over that.....surely, the thought of what to do will come.

In the mean time, what are all of you planning for Christmas?

I'm going to my uncle (whose my Pastor's) house and hang out there with my family. Should be interesting. Our Thanksgiving was better than I thought so I may be enjoying the Christmas deal.

I know its been a while.....I got to answer a ton of messages too....SO MANY......MUST....ANSWER....SOON!!!
