Hey Mom!

Hey Mom! So I haven’t posted anything lately because this time of year feels like a post-apocalyptic war zone.  I know what you are thinking: How so? Please elaborate so we might appreciate your genius.... Very well, let me paint you a picture.... The year is 2013. 2012 made us question everything about human nature and most of us assumed we wouldn’t survive but now we are here.  They call it first semester but everyday we fight so it won’t be our last.  We haven’t slept since it began, morning classes, evening classes it doesn’t matter we all feel the insomnia gnawing at our bones.  All the while that voice calls softly  just stay in bed today,   class isn’t that important. Never reason with it. Never. Once you reason with it, you acknowledge that it’s real, once it is real it owns you.  We watch each other from shadowed eyes like hunted animals waiting for the next obstacle.  Once kept hair, gets ties up into knotted buns.  Sweatp...

Ya Mama 5. I’d feel obligated to explain any basketball jargon and it would bog down my posts.  The sports enthusiasts would feel like I was being condescending and everyone else would just be bored. 6. The majority of my posts are dedicated to pointing out the stupid things people say and I am pretty sure...
