Weekend...?

So today is Friday and I am not sure how in the world that happened. I am actually reflecting on a couple things...

I am feeling a little silly today and I am not really sure why, I think that we all could afford to feel a little silly. I really want to know why sometimes things happen the way they do.

I just thought that I would share that I am feeling really silly

LOL

Love yall..

Until Next time

KIDZ!!!!!

Ah the joys of working with teens...
Nothing like it. I have been working with this group of teens since October 2006 and I felt that we were inseparable. I mean I put in so much work and time and effort into these teens, finding them jobs, letting them ride in my damn car, eating and dropping shit everywhere...but i didnt mind because they were my kids. Started a step team traveled the east coast stepping and performing for places, fighting my boss to keep the step team and just wanting the best for them.
Shaped them to be one of the best step teams in Philly and not by any other standards of getting a trophy or anything. I mean there were no other teams in the city doing what we did. Everything was lovely until one day...

One of them decided that since we were entered in competitions that kept getting cancelled she would quit..one of our powerhouse steppers, We called her Dr. Evil, because of her plans to be a veterinarian and her some times mean spirited nature...She also felt like we were losers...Then We lost another powerhouse, Da Rapture named for her thunderous feet when she stepped. Then they started to peel off...Fan favorites like Panic Room, Revenge, Blackheart, Miss Sassy, Storm, the Joker, all gone because of 1 reason, they hated stepping. No matter what I did for them steppers they still didnt see it. But nothing compared to today...when I lost FIERCE.

FIERCE a 14 year old princess, diva, way more mature than most 14 year olds, a dymanic energy and wonderful stepper, was very little and wasnt afraid to try anything. She is turning 15 on Tuesday April 22 and everything that I worked for in her is gone, because she decides that she wants to be very very very rude to me...saying things like I cant step because I have to shop, and I have always been disrespectful, you just had to learn it this way...WHO ARE YOU TALKING TO CHILD? I am not going to allow that from you. I am not! Well she thought that I was going to let her back on because here we sat with 5 steppers of what was once a 15 member army.

Booking shows like Temple Greek Spring Fling and West Chester U. I can rebuild a team I still have 4 strong.

Until next time...

Me and Donnie.


(Listening to Day 26 still)
So it has been a while since I have been able to get at you all about things. Something I think that you should know about me. I LOVE my freinds so so very much and every Monday we all get together and just BUG out!...I know you are asking "Well why do yall bug out on Monday's and not on the weekends?" Well the answer is very simple, EVERYONE looks forward to the weekend, and Monday has 15 cent wings on South St. It kinda helps helps us get through the Monday. One my really really good freinds DONNIE...makes me feel good about alot of things. We laugh at everything and she is very beautiful and famous and a whole lot of other things. I found that she may be a gay white man in another body. But I digress. I confided in her about something that I have been struggling with for a very long time...my weight. I mean as long as I could remember I have always been a big guy and thought that I was supposed to be because everyone I mean everyone in my family is heavy. I thought that it came with the territory of being a Jones. Ah but on the contrary. There was this thing called TV that told me, no matter what weight I was there was a supplement that could help me. I mean when I was in undergrad school at Jackson State University (Go Tigers) in Jackson Mississippi, I tried Xenadrine and we all know what that meant. LOL needless to say I stopped taking those pills. Its been about 5 years and now there was thing called ALLI...I bought it because I was convinced that something had to work, since it was all over the media as this wonder tonic...ha ha. Any way I did some research (after I bought the product) and decided to take it back because I was afraid. Last night after wing night, Donnie, My good friend, had something else in her bag. I didnt think of it until today when I decided that I might need to go and get something because I didnt spend 60 dollars for me to still be big like this. And then it hit me, Donnie is trying to lose weight quickly because this summer is coming and we got to be ready!!!

Well today is the first day of my Hydroxycut-Caffeine free plan and we will see how it goes. I love my girls to death and we gotta see how this summer will turn...here is what last summer brought...it was so much fun..until next time.
