Getting "DC Mean"…

Gawd…. I am getting mean again. I was a mean street thug nikka from North East DC (Lincoln Heights/ 58th Street area), then, I grew up. I moved to NC and got educated and more so countrified. I learned and respected the joy of life. I learned that life is not a rush… and sometimes you have to stop and BREATHE. You see… at 5pm, I don’t run for the train. I don’t hurry along and rush down the elevator/escalator. I stroll (as one lady put it). I move along with the crowd, but I am chill with myne. I just got my countryness on and enjoying my life… But the more and more I ride the train and see stupid shhit, the more I get madd. I get frustrated with folks and their lack of motivation. There CONTENTMENT with mediocrity. Da hell…

Personality traits… are these things that you CHOOSE to accept or are they something that you develop? Who da hell chooses to be whack? Mediocre? Sub-par?

Imma have a drink tonight…. I am going to M&S downtown on 13th Street. Join me if you like…


Randomness:
1) I am not Kyle Barker, I am Overton.
2) I don’t get hyped over fine wine… give me a glass of water – its your COMPANY that I enjoy.
3) Extra… Extra…..Extra.
4) Ready for the weekend.
5) Don’t let them steal your joy…
6) When you first thought is always negative, what are others to think?

But im no good during the week anyways and with school, it would be nice to hit up a spot and get a good mojito every now and then

I understand that you were probably meaning something deeper/different when you said that you can't understand about folks and their lack of motivation and their CONTENTMENT with mediocrity.

Somebody has to be mediocre, we can't all be doctors, lawyers, administrators, etc. Someone has to be mediocre for society to exist.

I, too, want better for my people but it takes all kinds

I wish I could have a drink too. It seems like there's always so much to do there and the people are so much more friendlier and down to earth.
