It’s a brand new year. Start of something good and wholesome. Or not.
I don’t know.
I would say that I’m more optimistic this year. Not to say that I was completely pessimistic before. I think I was somewhere in the middle.
I mean, an average morning, you wouldn’t see me jumping out of bed chirping and waltzing around, but I also didn’t piss on the floor and cry in the bathroom. I was somewhere in between. In fact, I’m still somewhere in between. I definitely don’t believe from the start that everyday will be good. But I also don’t think everyday will be crap. I sort of take that shit for what it is, and I analyze that shit in the end. I don’t know if a day was crappy or good until the very end, possibly even until the next day.
Take yesterday. I was sleepy as hell. I haven’t been able to get any sleep for the past three to four weeks. I’ve been living off of three hours max of sleep a night. That has led to some fucked up mornings. I literally went to sleep on the floor yesterday at work. I was getting some files, and I sat on the floor to sort through them, and while I was sitting there, I went to sleep. I woke myself up with my snoring. It was crazy. And during lunch, I went outside to get some air. I figured the cold air would wake me up. So, I sat on this bench. And I went to sleep there for about forty-five minutes like some bum. I was pretty much out of it the entire day.
Now, I personally hate when I’m out of it like that. I just don’t feel all good and shit. It ain’t my style to walk around all loopy. You never know when the man’s gonna try and pull some shit on a brother. I gotta keep my eyes out for the weirdos, crack hos, and white devils. We all know they constantly trying to take a brother down. So, being all dazed and confused just don’t work for me.
Anyway, the point I’m getting at is that yesterday didn’t start out all that hot for a brother. I couldn’t wait to get off from work, if only so I could put myself through the torture of laying in bed, staring at the ceiling, trying unsuccessfully to get a little shut-eye. And by the end of work, I wasn’t all that optimistic.
But then the second half of my day started. I was standing at the bus stop waiting, desperately trying not to tip over. It was cold as hell, and I was tired. I really wasn’t looking forward to getting on the bus and standing my way all the way home. It defeats the purpose. Who the fuck thought of the idea of paying to stand on a bus? Sure, it beats walking. But if I pay, I’m sitting. I don’t give a fuck. I’ll force my ass between two old people in the front. I’ve even contemplated sitting next to a funky, pissy ass-smelling homeless person.
So, here I was standing at the bus stop. And, ahem, lo and behold, I hear a horn honking. I look in the direction of the noise. And I notice this chick I hadn’t seen in a couple of months. We used to work together at my old job. And here she was right before me in her nice shiny new car with the yellow license plates. She offered me a ride home. And we exchanged numbers before I got out.
Let’s just say, when I made it in, I was feeling pretty good for the first time that day. And the day hadn’t ended yet. I went online, checked my e-mail and found out that my income tax dough was on it’s way to daddy. I also got a little gift from some kid who sent me 10 bucks just because. He sent that shit through Paypal. Apparently, he came across my blog and liked what he read, or not, and still decided to send me some dough because I’m so pathetic and broke. I have to be pathetic to get all giddy about receiving 10 bucks. But y’all don’t know. 10 bucks can hook a brother up with gristle for an entire week. And if you add four more 10 bucks to that shit, that’s ass, albeit, cheap crackho ass. But ass nonetheless.
Of course, I’m skeptical of my benefactor. I’m waiting for the other shoe to drop. I think I can expect some weird request from this bastard in the next 7 - 10 days. Maybe he’ll ask me to send pictures of me wiping my bottom, or fuckin’ a whole Tyson chicken fryer. It’ll be some weird shit. And just for the record, I don’t get down like that. Unless, ahem, you’re a hot chick. Then, and only then, can you expect to receive several naughty pictures from me, rather you want them or not. Maybe me rubbing my naked body down with Vaseline, or me cleaning some panties in the bathroom sink with only a thong on. I bet you’ll like that, won’t you. Yeah you will. You freak you.
Anyway, getting back to the dough. I figure if I get 10 bucks from 10 people this month, I might be able to get that one thing I haven’t been able to get all 2006, some ass. That’s right, Doc ain’t been laid all year, that is, all year 2006, and he needs some ass for the coming year. The coming year, ha, I kill myself. So, if I can raise a hundred or more dollars, I could get laid by the end of February. Of course, if you want to send over a hundred, I’m cool with that. I see it as, the more the money, the better the whore’in. I mean, which would you want me bangin, some old ass Madonna-lookin’ crackho, or some nice slutty, over the top, Mariah Carey-lookin’ crackho. Or better yet, how about a non-crackho. Although, that may be hard to find since most hoes are on somebody’s pipe. Get it.
PS. I finally got some sleep. Thanks George Bush and the State of the Union. I needed that.
