Mostly comprised of shit that passed through my head and shit I just needed to get off my chest. So peek into my mind, you may be surprised at what you may find.
I wish I could end my 30 N 30 on a high note but you can quote me when i say that it's been one of those days that life jumps up and reminds you of how big and bad it REALLY is
Responsibility taps you on the shoulder as to remind you that you're grown now and it ain't going nowhere it'll always be right behind you
Your bills are present but your income aint come in at least not on time and well.....
Now I'm sipping on this here drank 'cause at the very least it offers me a little bit of getaway from adulthood hell
Then I throw on this soul music 'cause at the very least it can empathize with me and tell me that it's been here before and it knows what I'm going through
So one time for the writers 'cause we bleed this shit onto the page and the screen sometimes for your enjoyment other times we just do it for your well-being and once more for all those reading 'cause even if you don't write you still dig where we come from and appreciate what it is that we put down so that makes it alright
Last week I caught up with a friend that I hadnt spoken to in quite some time. The convo went something like this.....
Me : Hey stranger! Where you been?
Her : I been laying low. Got a new boyfriend and all.....
Me : Yeah that'll do it!
Her : I got your msg a while back. Sorry I didnt get back. He goes through my phone sometimes. I had to tell him that you were my cousin.
*insert sound of record coming to a screeching halt*
Anyone see the problem here? Anyone?.....Anyone?........Bueller?
Now homegirl and I have been cool for a few years but never ever have we been on it like that! I could see if we had had some sorta torrid past but...no dice.
I just don't understand the insecurity. We are in our 30's yo! If you have any common sense at all, then you'd take it as a given at this point that your new significant other probably has friends of the opposite sex.
I literally asked homegirl "He goes through your phone? What is he.....12?"
1. "What good do your words do if they cant understand you?" - Erykah Badu " .....& On"
2. Did I mention that this 30 writes in 30 days thing ain't no punk?
3. Glad I participated. Even 'glader' that it's almost over lol
4. Yall know Gary Coleman's wife pretty much killed him, right?
5. Shall we examine the facts?
6. He "fell" down some steps and was "discovered" by his wife, right?
7. She made the decision to take him off life support
8. She sold pics of him near death and after death to the tabloids
9. It don't take Matlock, Columbo or the "Murder She Wrote" chick to put 2 and 2 together....
10. "Ya moms'll set that ass up/ properly gassed up/ Hoodie and masked up/ shit, for that fast buck/ she'll be layin in the bushes to light that ass up" - Notorious B.I.G "10 Crack Commandments"
11. Didn't technically "see" the BET Awards yet but thanks to information highway that is Twitter, I was able to follow along
12. Everyone loves a great comeback/redemption moment and it seems that Chris Brown's Michael Jackson tribute was just that for him
13. I do agree with the sentiment that the tribute should have been a star studded thing orchestrated by Quincy Jones or something though and not made to be about CB like it seemed
14. But it is BET....you can only expect so much
15. .............like DJ Khaled and Luda following up the Prince tribute!?!!??!!?!?
16. Oh and no love for Guru, huh? I digress......
17. They are our peoples and we gotta love them anyways
18. "Sometimes what we say and who we are ain't never been friends." - Angie Writes
19. They found potential signs of life on one of Saturn's moon, eh?
20. Now do you believe me and Stevie when we say we're going back to Saturn?
21. Actually we prolly won't because they prolly gon gentrify that shit next
22. Only a rich asshole politician that has a couple hundred thousand in the bank would suggest actually LOWERING the minimum wage.......Bill Brady
23. Between this prick and the influx of Wal-Marts we're finna see in the city....I just cant
24. Sure all the Wal-Marts will create much needed jobs but Wal-Mart is the devil and treats it's employees like shit
25. It's the equivalent of feeding a starving person a piece of rotten meat. They'll eat it becuz they're starving but that shit is prolly gonna kill 'em in the long run
26. ....or give 'em severe diahrea at the very least. Either way it wont be a good look.
27. "Dear God, I'm trying hard to reach you/ Dear God, I see your face in all I do/ Sometimes, it's so hard to believe it.../ But God, I know you have your reasons" - The Roots "Dear God 2.0"
28. Youtube the song if you haven't heard it. It's amazing.
29. And one time for The Roots becuz they've done it again with their latest album "How I Got Over"
30. Is it bad that I'm kinda indifferent about Robert Byrd?
31. Like I just read on Twitter : much like being linked to child porn, being linked to the KKK just leaves a taint that you cant get off
32. Of course you gotta be PC and repent on that. It ain't like you can go around present day saying "I'd join the KKK again if I could" and expect to keep office
33. Someone wrote yesterday that all the people constantly updating their status on fb during the BET Awards.....yea THAT is what Twitter is for lol
34. Wow @ John Legend going IN on twitter about people making fun of him during the BET Awards
35. "And to the haters, I'm still smarter, more talented, more successful and better looking than you. So fall back. By the way...my hairline has been the same since I was a kid. Can't believe some people are obsessing about it now. I've been famous for 6 years now!!" - John Legend
36. Let that one go John. 'You Can't Win' (c) The Wiz
37. I feel like every list during baseball season I have to mention how much better the White Sox are than the Cubs just because
38. #southside
39. Does it still throw people off when you hashtag outside of Twitter?
40. BA.....Teren is almost 3. Why dont she like me yet? lol
41. My little cousin Jamela didnt like me til she was 5 so I aint worried
42. I hate that your keyboard is broken
43. "Oh Lord/ what did I do to deserve her?/ Heaven knows....Lord knows I'm only human/ Can this be someone truly for me/ or is it a cruel fantasy?" - Rachelle Ferrell & Will Downing "Nothing Has Ever Felt Like This"
44. That song will take you there. Hopefully you know about it already. If not.....you're welcome!
45. *crosses fingers* concerning the Oscar Grant trial
46. Lord knows all hell may very well break loose if that verdict doesnt come back right #riotsaintnothingbutdietsforthesystem
47. I thought my unemployment finally kicking in after 2 months was gon be the proverbial weight lifted off my shoulders
48. *Charlie Murphy voice* wrong! WRONG!
49. Seems I had better hurry up, read my books, write my scripts , and take my ass back to work!
50. "The very existence of flame-throwers proves that some time, somewhere, someone said to themselves, 'You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I'm just not close enough to get the job done.'" - George Carlin
1. I guess foremost and of course most sad is actually having been in LA when he first passed. The homie Dave and I had just landed in LA when we heard that Farrah Fawcett had passed and by time we got to the hotel we started to see tweets about MJ. Then we got to the hotel and watched CNN from there....
2. Since I was in LA, me and a couple friends went to the family compound in Encino to leave flowers. Needless to say that that was surreal.
3. Waiting for "Beat It" and "Say Say Say" to come on Friday Night Videos.
4. Fighting my brother for the "official" Thriller jacket. My mama bought an "official" one that looked like the one he had on in the video, and for some strange reason she bought one that had the colors reversed so it was mostly black with a little red. I wasn't having that one. Talk about knock down and drag out! 5. Being mad when I had to use said "official" Thriller jacket as a compress over my bleeding eye that I got in a rock fight when one of them young punks cheated and threw a brick!!!! Here I was, blood squirting from my head and I distinctly remember hesitating and then being mad when I realized I was gon hafta use my Thriller jacket to keep from bleeding to death lol
6. My mama coming in my room to "check on me" as an 11 yr old b/c I was sitting in the dark with sunglasses on listening to "Man In The Mirror" on repeat
7. Absolutely LOVING the J5 cartoon. Man dont talk to me about no Lucky Charms, no pancakes, no nothing when this was on! Do they have it on dvd yet?
8. Everyone gathering around to watch the world premiere of the "Black Or White" video. Remember it was a huge event (being shown in primetime and all) and all the networks showed it? I also remember being a bit confused at the ending sequence with the destroying the car and all but I figured he's Mike and he made "Thriller" so he can do what he wants lol
9. Loving the defiancy (Is that a word? If not I just made it so) of the "Leave Me Alone" video and realllllllllly wishing that he had said "Stop fucking with me!" in "Scream"
10. Almost busting my face open every day for about 3 months straight while trying to do the "lean forward" move from the "Smooth Criminal" video until discovering that it was special effects. I know I wasnt the only one, right?
I really aint got much for yall today. I'm headed out the door. Today is my Great Granny's 95th birthday.....or 96th. That's bad that I cant remember huh? Anyways we're finna go party with her til she gets tired of our asses and our noise and sends us home. But just so no one feels cheated...here's a haiku for you lol
You cant pick them out
They're chosen for you by God
Celebrate your fam
(and yes I realize I may have cheated with 'they're' as one syllable but dammit it's day 24 and I'm pressed for time so cut me some slack dammit!)
These Chi-Town shootings is disturbing me yall Somebody get me Barack's number I need to make a call At first I kinda wanted to believe it was propaganda I wasn't gon believe the hype I was thinking that these tallys were fear tactics but it seems every Friday night into Saturday morning someone gets in a fight that eventually leads to bullets taking flight and fuck when it gets dark they are shooting muthafuckas in broad daylight And I would say they need to do these gun buybacks weekly but lately I'm thinking that those are just for show I wouldn't be surprised if they were returning the guns to 'em through the back door See that's called CONSPIRACY As in the FBI and CIA Read up on some of the shit they pulled back in the day I wouldn't even be out my mind to say that Daley and Weis could be in on it too The government working to take out the people? Naw that aint nothing new Shit...Chairman Fred is dead becuz of the Feds Alls I know is this shit is out of hand and it seems to have come from nowhere Ain't no gun factories on 63rd or K-Town so these guns is coming from somewhere The National Guard talk dun calmed down but hell they still just might cuz right now it feels like someone called the gun truck to come dump boxes off the back in the middle of the night
You are gonna die crazy early of some stress related illness cause you cant let shit go!
I'm not wishing it on you I'm just stating the obvious You need to learn to re-fucking-lax
That stress shit eats up black folk like we do collard greens And when you add in the elements we're among.....
What you think them stress knots in yo' neck is trying to tell you?
Take another vacation Smoke a joint Have a drink Go watch waterfalls JUST DO SOMETHING instead of passing that shit along to me!
I'm not telling you to not care at all I'm just saying do a better job of picking and choosing what and what not to give a fuck about
This knock down and drag out shit about damn near every little thing (which usually turns out to not be about shit) is for the birds
So my loving advice to you for the sake of you and all that love you is to find some cool, calm, soothing and relaxing shit that you like to do and do it
And please please please by all means take a deep breath while you're at it!
We are all here trying to make a way and pursue our heart's desires. Most of us mean no ill will or harm towards others. In fact, most of us love to see others prosper and even try to help them along the way if possible.
I know I for one am really confident in myself and my abilities. I also know that sometimes I tend to be a bit too hard on myself. I expect so much of me, and put so much pressure on myself that sometimes when I come up short or things don't pan out I get down on myself.
There is a balance to be struck there. It's okay to expect a lot of yourself. And it's also a good thing that you hold yourself accountable, but don't beat yourself up. Be nicer to you.
In the end, all that you have is you. You are responsible for you. So cut yourself some slack.
I just want you to know that I will never let you live down the fact that I saved your life that day right after the basketball game we went to at Hyde Park high school when we were about 8 and 9.
Don't you remember? They started shooting and I instinctively ran for cover and for some reason you froze like a dear in headlights and started crying in the middle of gunfire? Remember how I risked life and limb and ran back into harms way to come get you and we went to that McDonald's on 66th and Stony to recollect ourselves?
Now I know you'll probably pull that whole 'you saved me from getting hit by that speeding car' bit out your ass. And while that is (somewhat) true, let it be noted that my heroic act came first. So in actuality, your good timing wouldn't even be possible if it weren't for my bravery in the first place.
Anyways, I say all that to say have a Happy Birthday (that was made possible by me....for saving your life.)
Sincerely,
Teej
p.s. I'll save the story of how I usta get whoopings for writing on the walls in crayon b/c I'd come home from pre-school and teach you all the alphabet and numbers that I'd just learned for your next birthday.
I looked up to make sure she was enjoying what I was doing Her head was cocked back with an arch in her back She held on to my ears like the safety rails of a rollercoaster I could taste the adrenaline
I circled the clit with the tip of my tongue then licked the slit just to have some fun She tried to run cuz it got too intense but I wasn't having it I wrapped my arms around her hips and caught her rhythm as she swayed from side to side then up and down and up and down like a bucking bronco Her climax was near but I wasn't finished with her yet
I stiffened my tongue and pointed it forward pushing past her lips as far as possible She dug her nails into my neck in testimonial Ecstasy was nearing and her swollen clit was begging for my attention again I went to lick it but she had other plans as she grabbed the back of my head and initiated a feverish grind til euphoria arrived.
When she was done she gave me a passionately sloppy kiss while enjoying her taste on my face then we went back and forth about which of us would get up and turn the camera off
Remember the episode of "Martin" where he was running out of show topics and he said that his last two show topics had been about toe jam and sea monkeys?
Well this 30 writes in 30 days ain't no hoe! And I'm thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis close to writing about toe jam and sea monkeys my damn self!
Its not like there ain't shit to write about but the thing is I've learned that us writers are a neurotic bunch. We have our own little quirks and idiosyncrasies in how we actually put these words together. I admit when Sia first suggested we do this I thought "Oh that's a piece of cake! I can write for 30 straight days. No problem". But alas, here I am at day 17 and Ive got nothing. And that's okay.
Yall just gon have to take this big ol ball of nothing and run with it. Hell I'm at 4 paragraphs already! lol
In the interest of getting to the point.....I say all that to say : I've got nothing for today.
See yall tomorrow.
p.s. Deana don't go! Haiku your way through it but don't go!
Ever have a weird/awkward moment with someone and it totally throws the vibe off? Maybe an intended joke doesnt come across well or an action is misinterpreted and/or misconstrued? Well thats where the disconnect comes in.
Now if you are seasoned and mature you understand that these things happen every so often. As humans none of us are perfect and even the most compatible tandem will eventually have a disconnect moment. That's just human nature.
"Let's stick to understanding/and we wont fall" - Common "The Light"
The trick is to recognize it for what it is, verbalize it and move on. Get you budnippers out and nip that shit in the bud. It'll only be awkward for a moment I swear, but a moment of awkwardness is a great trade off for restoring the harmony.
So consider this a PSA. Dont fall victim to the disconnect. It happens from time to time. Just remember these simple steps
1. Acknowledge it. 2. Move on. 3. Live happily ever after.
Alright "Teej"....you've maintained for years that all you needed was time. Time to write. Time to concentrate. Time to put it all together. All you needed was time.
Well.....you got time homie. Being fired was probably the best thing that could happen to you. No more long and weird and flip flopping hours at the hotel. You have all the time in the world.
As it currently stands you have a half-finished book to complete and 2 short film scripts and a stage play to write. What exactly are you waiting for? Inspiration? That shit's fleeting. Write anyway!
You know how you love that saying about how you 'used to be the little engine that could, but now you're the big engine that better'? Well what you had better do is get your act together and write. There are no perfect writing conditions. You just do it.
Pretty soon your worst nightmare will come true and you WILL be that guy that was super talented and never did anything with it. I know you feel like you're 22 but you are 32. You'll be 33 in a few months. 33 son!!!!! Again....what the fuck are you waiting on?
"See the fucking cop with the flat top/ standing over niggas face down on the black top?/ That shit's GOTTA stop...." Da Lench Mob "Buck The Devil" 1992
I feel like once a damn year I write a blog like this but I suppose it bears repeating : No matter how sweet we think it is (black president and all) they still find a way to remind us that our lives mean absolutely jack shit to them and that they still run this shit!
The fact that the Johannes Mehserle trial has a makeup of 7 whites, 4 latinos and 1 asian is fucking ridiculous!
If you don't know, Mehserle is the white cop who shot and killed unarmed Oscar Grant as he lay on his stomach on an Oakland train platform while being detained on New Year's Day of '09. The trial just got under way and well.....you just read the makeup of the jury.
Apparently there wasn't a black person to be found that could be impartial despite the fact that the trial was moved from Oakland to L.A.. Even the damn alternate jury is devoid of any black people. We obviously don't have the genetic make up to do such tasks.....but white people sure do. When's the last time you've heard of a jury that didn't include at least 1 of them? They are everyone's damn peer it seems.
I dunno yall. I got a bad feeling about this one. Granted that there were dozens of people on the train who took cell phone footage that clearly shows the cop shooting Oscar Grant while he was face down on the ground...the Rodney King shit showed that even video wont guarantee the proper verdict. Sean Bell and Amadou Diallo proved that they can kill us even when we're unarmed so what the fuck?
So anyways....yeah this one oughta be interesting to say the least. Crazy shit is.....if dude is found not guilty and the peoples activate the riot do you think they'll understand finally? Probably not.
I guess we'll have to wait and see. Maybe this time it'll be different. Maybe this time they'll prove that our lives aren't worthless to them.
I wont hold my breath though.
(Peace to She Cat because I basically piggy backed off her posting from last week with this one but this shit really pisses me off and makes me fearful as a black man.)

Yesterday, vibe.com posted a piece by Houston rapper Slim Thug about black women and how they need to "stand by their man more". If you were able to make it through the grammatical hurdles you were treated to the following quips among others :
"It’s hard to trust a Black woman [sometimes] because a lot of Black women’s mind frame is that the man gotta do everything for her."
"They have to understand that successful Black men are kind of extinct. We’re important. It’s hard to find us so Black women have to bow down and let it be known that they gotta start working hard; they gotta start cooking..."
"My girl is Black and White. I guess the half White in her is where she still cooks and do all the shit that I say, so we make it."
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA!
If that aint the most laughable shit I've read in forever......
First of all....WHO THE FUCK THOUGHT IT A GOOD IDEA TO GET SLIM MU'FUCKING THUG'S OPINION ON BLACK WOMEN AND RELATIONSHIPS?!?!?!!?
Really? Slim Thug?!?!? Really? I'd readily listen to Steve Harvey before Slim Thug and I'm thoroughly convinced that Steve Harvey doesn't know what the fuck he's talking about.
So okay...once you get past the fact that it's Slim Thug let's examine what he said a bit.
One of my biggest problems with the article (because I have like 50-leven problems with this fuckshit of an article) is all the generalizations being made. Personally I dont deal with that type of chick so I cant say she doesn't exist. But what I do know is like my girl Cyn said, you are who you surround yourself with. So maybe Mr. Thugga needs to reexamine his standards. Also I've never made it rain in a club (maybe at the record or book store but thats neither here nor there), so I cant relate to that.
Another big problem I had is with the black woman bashing. I swear this shit must be in season and no one told me. So lemme get this straight : the "white side" of his mixed chick is the part that cooks and handles business!??!!? If that aint a WTF moment I dunno what is. Since when does your racial background determine if you are a good partner within a relationship or not?
If I date/marry a black woman all I got to look forward to is her nagging and begging me to buy her expensive shit and she not gon cook at all?
Ehhhh I'll take my chances. Thanks for the heads up though Stayve.
Fin.
p.s. Slim Thug has since repented on his twitter account and said that he was high when he did the piece. (Yea I thought so!)
p.p.s. It has been said (repeatedly) that the reason him and LeToya broke up is because he had a baby with his first cousin while they were together. Yeah you read that right? HE HAD A BABY BY HIS FIRST COUSIN. Shows how damn small his dating pool is!
He died this morning? She shot who? My unemployment hearing got pushed back? Nooooo dont back out on me I need you now!
*sigh*
Now Im sitting on the back porch pulling on a Newport and sipping a deuce deuce of Steel Reserve despite the fact that I dont smoke squares and I hate beer
Sometimes the only tool you can use to hang on to your sanity is a VICE grip
It is my solemn belief that people need to learn the fine art of Shutting The Fuck Up (STFU)!
You ever come across someone who is uncomfortable with silence? Not the akward silence when something needs to be said and no one wants to say it. Im talking about the peaceful and tranquil silence like on a bus ride or something. Then some diarhea mouthed fucktard comes and kills the vibe and aint saying shit?
Every waking moment can not be (and shouldnt be) filled with noise.
If you dont have anything of quality to add to a conversation, it's okay to STFU. Dont just say some shit because you feel the need to say some shit. It's cool if you say "Nah I dont really have anything to add to that right now". No one is gonna look at you crazy.....unless of course they happen to be used to you always always butting in to say something and nothing at the same time. But try it anyways!
Everyone is all Bobby Digital now. No one seems to respect the analog anymore. I love technology as much as the next person but I still dig the personal interaction. Can you believe that sometimes my crazy ass still calls people just to hear their voice?!?!? Outlandish, right?
Or this other crazy thing....I keep track of people's birthdays (on my own sans the help of facebook) and on their birthday....if I have their number..... I call and wish them a happy birthday! No please...don't commit me to anyone's insane asylum for I have not gone mad. It's just that sometimes I like to communicate directly....person to person like they used to do back in 1988 and shit.
We've gotten to the point where texting and tweeting are now deemed acceptable means of communication and folks dun forgot how to use the damn phone. Lemme tell ya folks.....contrary to popular belief, my phone is still the very best way to reach me. No, not twitter or facebook or email. The phone! Now mind you, I may screen your call and decide that I dont feel like talking to you at the very moment you call but trust I will get back. And if you happen to leave me a voicemail and tell me what the business is, your chances of getting a speedy return call are vastly improved. Granted that this is all predicated on whether or not I check my voicemail immediately but even if not....the call log will tell me you called (most times).
I know sometimes texting is quicker and when used properly, it can be a timesaver. But really if we go back and forth with more than 3 text exchanges....our lazy asses should just probably pick up the phone and talk directly. Not to mention how sometimes things can get lost in text translation. You fuck around and tell a joke that doesnt go over well and now you gotta call anyways to play Clarissa and explain it all. (Remember that show?)
So remember....dont get caught up too deep in the matrix. Dont let your blackberry or iphone be the sole means in which you reach out to your folks. Dont underestimate the power of calling someone directly. Dont be dude in the picture above.
FUCK the Detroit Police Department for killing Aiyana Jones and trying to suppress the tape FUCK the juvenile and petty trending topics on Twitter FUCK Kobe and the Lakers FUCK BP for this oil spill and their lack of urgency in fixing it FUCK BP again for consulting (movie director) James Cameron b/c he's supposedly an "aquatic cinema expert". Yall aint got no other experts to call on other than the dude who directed "Avatar"!?!??
FUCK June 8th for not being here already FUCK a cover letter FUCK Arizona and their criminally racist illegal alien laws FUCK Texas for trying to brush over slavery by renaming it "Atlantic Triangular Trade" in their textbooks FUCK a dude sending another dude to smack up Kat Stacks on his behalf. I mean I know she's wack but...really? You send another man to beat up a woman for you? Aint you got no girl cousins to handle that for you since you need it handled so bad?
FUCK the fact that Waka Flocka is winning right now FUCK that someone is finna call me a hater for that last line "FUCK this rap shit. I listen to classical!" - Baatin FUCK it supposedly getting 'greater later'. I want it now dammit! FUCK dude at the Beezy for firing me on some bs then trying to deny my unemployment and also trying to deny me the little monies rightfully owed to me on my last check
FUCK surviving 2 tours of duty in Iraq only to come back home and be killed on King Dr. FUCK Israel attacking the Freedom Flotilla that was carrying food and medical supplies FUCK the club. Let's mobilize and fundraise FUCK VH1's Sunday night lineup of fuckery FUCK Glenn Beck for being an asshole and a hypocrite and even mentioning Malia's name in his criticism of President Obama. What the hell does an 11 yr old have to do with your disagreement with the President anyways?
FUCK having illusions of grandeur and not having anyone there to bring you back to reality FUCK Jon Burge. I hope they throw his stank ass under the jail FUCK gettting party invites on facebook from people Im not even "friends" with! How does THAT work?!?!? FUCK people who just finished smoking then wanna come and talk to you in close proximity with that God awful "just smoked" stench on them FUCK these propoganda ass/scare tactic news reports like "20 people shot over a 9 hour period" in Chicago
She said "‘consciousness’ doesn’t excuse you from dopeness" I paused and pondered "Come again?" She repeated "‘consciousness’ doesn’t excuse you from dopeness" then added "the two arent exclusive, ya know?" I chuckled She continued "and if you think about it.... the dopest people are usually the ones that are conscious becuz to be aware IS dope" I sat back and gazed at her She knowingly returned my gaze and included a smirk for good measure Sista was dope and she knew it After a while I leaned back in and asked "so where do we go from here?" With all the confidence in the world she leaned in and offered "wherever we want, baby"
Simply complicated. Moody. Loves people. True Scorpio. Extreme. Fiercely Loyal. Interested in alot. Slightly dyslexic. A smart ass who uses sarcasm as a crutch Possible ADD but I dont care.
I'm just trying to find my way in this big ol world, and at the same time trying to keep my sanity. Shouldnt be too hard, huh?
