Rewind - The week has been crazy filled with sleepless nights and sleepfull days. One thing I miss already is my boy, Erick. I am the B & P champ of 2 K 4 and we'll always have Triple H in Blade 3. Another thing I am not looking forward to as well is Jo leaving in less than a week now!

So with the year ending as I'll be partyin at Steve & Cat's place, I'm gonna look back on 2K4. I'm gonna do this without looking back at any old posts so the beginning months will be a complete blank.

Jan. - Student teachin @ Edmonson, still miss the kids and was the best experience for me.
April - G-Pa's 80th B-Day bash, man saw lots of peeps that night, even cooler went to NYC after the party.
May - Back to NYC with my parents, gotta love a road trip!
June, July, August - Lots of memories of the summer, I-Robot was a night to remember. Then there was the family vacation to Seattle/Vancouver which I still love and miss. Going to Toronto 4 times in that 3 month span as well. Runnin ACA in the D, while ACA in the C was fallin apart. I'm thankful for my crew Reylan and Stef D for helping me making our camp tight. At the same time, I'm glad I have constructed a bridge with some of the C-Ton peeps. Playin grass v-ball, and letting things ride out how they are today.
Sept. - CCUC Tournament in Chicago baby! Wierdest moment, comin back home and sleepin in the same rest area as Alan and Naomi but not knowing it. Best was leavin at midnight in my own terms of peace out. Also seeing Joyce's Kraft pad as well, and greatful she was there as usual helping me with the logistics.
Oct. - Harvest Night was fun, playing in the moonwalk with BooBoo.
Nov. - Hmmm, uh b-day? Well Thanksgiving, but that wasn't even the same.
Dec. - Spending time with Jo before she goes. My sis's graduation and makin fun of Sparty peeps. Time with Emoy, was again great as well!

Well, my mind has drawn a blank now, phew too much thinking involved! Oh well, see y'all in 2K5.

Don't Tell Me

Thursday, December 23, 2004

Ahchoooey - Wow, I think yesterday was the worst I ever felt in a long time. Tuesday night, I started noticing that I was about to get sick. I just had that feeling when I was playing v-ball at West Bloom. but never did I imagine it would down like this. I think it started off with just how the temperature kept flucuating in the gym. The heat was turned on to 70, but every now and then it would do an auto shut down. It was hard to maintain a consistent body temp. when you have 9 teams waiting for 3 courts. I don't know what is it with my hair or is it because I am just shorter than everyone else? But everyone loves to rub my hair/head because I'm like the little kid on the court. Anyways, I got what I wanted that night respect to play against the best and mentioned as one of the elite. Going at S.S. 3 matching some of those guys and afterwards talking to me about W.L. "the best of the best" league was much coolios. However, again the gym effect at times it felt like it was 100 with the body temp and the heat, then auto shut down it felt like it was 20.

So Tuesday night, coming home from the airport I started noticing my health was getting worst. I blasted the heat in the car, and my sis was literally sweating bullets. While I still felt cold, and my body was becomin numb. I evaluated myself at home, to see that I got the flu, fever, chills, migraine, dizzy spells, and body numbness. So what did I do on Wednesday? Well out of a possible 24 hours, I slept for an actual 23 hours! The most I ever slept in a day, I mean that was like wasting a whole day to me. The only time I got up was either to pee, or I actually tried watching the Pistons game but then I fell back asleep. I have yet to had time to put away all the cool Denver Nuggets gear my sis bought me yet. Man my stomach, hurts too because I only ate a couple slices of small beef yesterday and taking all those meds, blah. Although today is a new day, and for the most part I am almost healed thanks to the Lord. Now I just want to go out, but do I even dare too, but it does look fun to drive out right now with all that snow!

Walleye Slayer - I wasn't gonna post but since it's like past 3 a.m., I was catching up on other peep's site. Now as most peeps know I am an aggressive driver, but what you don't know it is usually out of reaction. Today, was no different as I was driving on M-59 leaving Lakeside. I'm cruising down the middle lane, as both the left and right lanes were backed up. Then this red truck, swerves from the left lane and cuts me off in the middle lane. I slammed my brakes to gather myself, oh and you can sure bet that it was on now. I zipped through traffic just to catch him, neck and neck at a red light. I demanded him to roll his window down, so we can have a little chat. He kept apologizing to me and since it's Christmas I forgave him. I just told him not to do it again, because next time he could kill someone, and that I'll be watching him. I don't like punks who think they own the road by cutting off the innocent ones.

I played some v-ball at KUMC, and I had a funny convo with DenDen. It went something like this:

D: Man I keep forgetting I am not 20 years old anymore.
K: But you're 27, so you're still in your 20's.
D: It sure doesn't feel like it.

As I was reading others, I see that CGC will be entering the CCUC tournament in 2K5. And they are gonna be ballin over break together to gear up for it. With break approaching, it will be a balancing act for me to heal physically (ankle, knee, and shoulder) while preparing myself to get ready for the 2nd half of the season.

I kept thinking of the ladies of the G-House today too. I wish I had a video tape to record everything because it's just such a good reminder for myself.

Pink & Black Attack

Monday, December 20, 2004

Rewind - Deja vu, it seemed like today as I got an unexpected call at CBC today. I looked at my phone, and it read "Mommy" and all I could think about was something happening to my G-Ma. I hesistated to answer at first, fearing what I did not want to hear but thank goodness it wasn't as bad as last time. However, this time it was both my grandparents being sick in bed and just way too ill to eat. I bought the meds, and then my aunt came over as well to cook while I explained the meds to both of my G-Parents. One thing that has been positive about this, is the fact that I am starting to regain some of my toy-san abilities back. Man looking at my G-Pa, his nose was like Niagara Falls. My G-Ma ate a lil rice, while my G-Pa had a cookie and they both went to bed while my aunt left. I decided to stay, to wrap gifts for the kids, and had my own QT. 3 straight hours I stayed there for, the longest in a while. Felt so wierd being alone, knowing this was once where I could of called home minus my sis, Alan, and Wendy. I even went for a quick run, outside in my b-ball gear when it was 4 degress out to bring back some old memories. I do pray that they will get better, and that salvation is in His plan.

G-House - Then I left for the Genesis House, meeting up with everyone else from CBC. This I will be flat out honest about all my emotions throughout this time. I was discouraged as we were about to leave from CBC seeing nobody from either of the adult fellowships, mainly Ambassadors and 5:14. Although I was encouraged by the fact that we had more peeps from the Youth Ministry than both of the other fellowships combined. As soon as I walked into the G-House, I embraced everyone as they did the same with me and things started clicking for me. As D-2 said tonight, "God is good, and Randy was the man tonight." We sang carols, and we opened it up for sharing time. When the ladies shared their testimonies, it just put me to shame. I mean, every single lady was just fighting (in a good way) with each other just to share their testimony. Their testimonies were so genuine, and real compared to like mine, that talks about work or school every time. I mean tears were shed, and my heart could feel it and I felt so ashamed of my own faith. I can't think of the last time, I heard from any CBC fellowship that was just so open to share all at once. These ladies did as much sharing about how God has blessed them as much as we all do staring at each other hoping someone could share so the other does not.

I'm glad my Chou Boyz came, and again I love Chris and the relationship we have. We were talking outside of the G-House, and I was talking bout my childhood raised in these areas, while he said he had it rough in Novi. Man he cracks me up, and he goes on to explain bout how Novi weather is colder. Randy also changed the structure up, as we had prayer time together. I was thankful that all the kids circled around me and we had "K Dawg's Story Time." Gracie D, Nene, Booboo, Peewee, I-Ching, Claire and Miles all made a new friend, Joshua. Man this kid reminds me so much of Christopher, but African-American. Booboo did a great job without the Tan sisters playin the violin. Gracie D, Claire, and I also had funny conversations about a lot of things as well. I also got a chance to talk to Cory, and I was happy to see him come out as well. I love Booboo and her new glasses too, she's so cute and helpful too. Dave was tickling the ivory as usual, boy got some serious skillz on that. We stayed longer than expected, but nobody cared because tonight's experience was unexplainable that this was a glimpse of heaven, His Spirit was felt tonight and was what warmed the hearts of everyone.

Finally, I'll be rocking a new pink and black bracelet thanks to Jo. I love this Christmas present and it means a lot to me. Can't wait for the unveiling as well ;) I also praise God too, for blessing me with a great friend in Linz and the offering.

Primetime

Rockin The Boat - Today was an eventful one, well first no more Survivor for the rest of this year! Man, it sucks because none of my final 4 picks made it as the winner. I believe it is still one of my goals in life is to play in Survivor. I took my sis to the airport today, so she can fly out to Denver. I hope she gets me my Kenyon Martin jersey that I asked for :) K-Mart!!!!! Afterwards, I went back to the past, to settle some unfinished business. It was in the air, and I could smell it too S.Fox had returned. Oh well, I'm sorry to Annie I'm not an offski, nor a dutchmen. I'm CBC and I ain't ever comin back. I thought that would set the tone for the night but He continues to put peeps in my life. I went to FCS, and I ran into Dave from KUMC and we chatted about how things have been going. I'm bummed though that they haven't been playing v-ball because I was really hoping they would be a lot stronger too. As I continued my shopping at FCS, then I ran into Tari from the Ambassadors Crew so we chatted for a little. Come home to see the Pistons win, and nothing beats a night when all my original YTF girls are online. Hope Jubilee ;) has a safe and fun trip throughout break. Man, still can't get over my big twitch with what I learned today though. I'll give a woot woot too because Electra is coming to the Eastside this Saturday ;0

ATM Tricks

Wednesday, December 15, 2004

Nerves of Steel - Today was all about pressure to perform, and execute. For the most part, I am not the type of person to stress out about anything. Peeps say that I am cool, and calm about a lot of things which I believe is how I've trained myself to be mentally strong. This morning I took my last final of '04 and I needed at least a 51 or better out of 60 to get my 3.0 in the class. Now I don't have my final grade yet, but I am confident that I scored 52 or better because I was pretty confident about my answers. I stayed up all night trying to prepare myself to get that 3.0

I rewarded myself coming home with a 4 hour power nap then off to v-ball. Everyone's been wanting me to come out to Tuesday night v-ball out in the Hills. I finally checked it out with SpongeBob, and wow peeps were right there is some great competition out here. The pressure was on to play because there were a lot of players who I have not played against. So I wanted to prove to them that I am among the elite in that gym. Jessie wanted me to run with her and that brought instant credibility because a lot of peeps associate her with playing with some of the best peeps in the area. It's also fun for me because I get to play for free a lot of times since I know the peeps :) However, I felt bad for SpongeBob because she did not get to play at all because the competition was a lil out of her league.

Flipside to this is wow I am getting the 1 hand set down pretty good. Although I prefer not to use it. With all this playing, I am starting to notice how much slower my ankle is healing. Oh well I guess that's what Christmas break is for. What pressure, just brush it off ;) and lift it all up with some love from above.

Turn It On Baby!

Judgement Day - Don't you love how peeps just look at you and they already make that opinion about ya. A lot of things got to me about this topic as of late. This Sunday, I feel as if it is Judgement Day for a lot of reasons. First there is the Q & A session, which I look forward to and hopefully I can stay for the most part of it. I hope we have moved out of the whole talk about music and such. Can we get to more pressing needs in the church? I love how peeps complain but don't offer any solution, and just love getting waiting on.

2nd thing is, I am excited for my kids because they get to sing carols and stuff in front of both congregations. Some of them are just so adorable doing it. At the same time, Auntie B made the comment saying that, oh you have to wear this and that. Then she actually grabs a couple of kids, and says this is what you should wear on the 19th! It made me sick to my stomach, because not all of those kids can afford that type of clothes. Another thing, is ok what if they did not come in ready to style and profile, are they "not good" Christians compared to those who did dress up? That's just a big slap in the face to some of those kids, who possibly could not measure up to those who were selected. I'm glad we teach these kids about how God measures us by clothing now. In a retalitory way, I almost just want to alternate what I have to wear, and let them know it's alright if you dress like this. Grrrr, I am just sick and tired of how some peeps in general look at others just because of there wear at CBC. If someone comes in butt naked then let's talk or has satan's child then let's discuss. If I dressed to impressed, and cut all my hair out are dem older peeps gonna trust me more? I'm still the same person, man I hope this type of stuff changes eventually.

Anyways time to sleep since I stayed up all nite to study for BIO. Yes, I too think it is creepy that Jo and I are a lot alike, but it funny too as she would do :twitch:

Back In The Hotel

Sparty Cash - So Saturday I went to MSU for my sister's graduation and compared to high school, this was boring. I think it was because I don't know anyone to listen for names, and all I cared about was hearing my sis's. The crowd kept shouting "Go Green!" and all you see is me standing up, shouting "Go Blue!"Then again I didn't know what color to represent for OU. Then I started singing the U of M fight song while they were singing the MSU fight song. I wish I would of sported my Braylon Edwards jersey.

There were a lot of great things that I took from that day. I spent the whole car ride up with my baby cuz. We talked about a lot of things, and I learned more about my family history. I am still bummed that she now wants to go to MSU though. Nonetheless, I love my baby cuz and I think it meant most to me this past Saturday. I'm thankful that throughout the day she now realizes how much I care about her. She kept making sure that I will be at her high school graduation in June and sitting in the front. I let a friend take her home, and I was surprised that she actually called me as I asked her to, to make sure she was home ok. For the most part, she knows how much I want to try and protect her from other family members that are not the best influence on her and lil bro. So many times, I like to leave here and take off on my own. However, it's because I care too much about my relationships/responsibilities with others that I stay.

These Dreams

Legends - So I just wanted to recap my last day at Iroquois yesterday. For the most part, a lot of my kids kept telling me to come back the following week. Alyssa said her goodbyes to me and now that I look at her, she really reminds me of 2 of my YTF girls. Her height, and hair remind me of Electra while her favorite colors she likes to sport are pink and black like Jo. I was actually gonna buy the school lunch for the first time ever yesterday too. I went to Janie's class first to thank her for all that she has done for me. But she had a sub in the room, and some of my kids were walking all over her. So I did not go to lunch and my prep hour break just to set order in that room. Sarah and Nicole, my girls I tell ya, they were being so mean to the "nerdy" kids, at times I could not help but laugh in my head. But I'm glad that they listened to me when they had to. As the day went on, Ms. Wojie presented me an Iroquois t-shirt as a gift and I am just so thankful for that. The last class, I spoke with Bruno because I don't want to see him end up as one of those bullies as he grows up. Miss them much!

Ahhh, if there is one game that I really want to buy to continue to waste my life away is X-Men Legends! I've been watching to much X-Men as of late but man this game looks so sweet! Oh well, must use my money wisely, put too much temptation.

Panther Pride - Today was my last day at Iroquois :( I miss my kids already though it still does not compare to the ones I had at Edmonson. Lots to share about but maybe I'll save it for tomorrow. Why? Because when I was exhausted and down tonight, what kept me going was to remember that I was playing for my kids tonight. 7 V-ball leagues and 3 of them have come to an end now. After tonight, I now have 3 championships and tonight it was nice to win the pot. Our team took the 2 out of 3 series to win it all and be crowned champs. Crowds of peeps were watching our game and for the most part I did not say anything during the game. To me, it was time to play, the talk is done and over with.

Of course, Sam kept trying to talk smack to me throughout the game. I just kept smiling because I trained myself to be mentally strong and that I can't be shaken. 2nd game I finally had it though, as I killed one straight down the line and it tattooed him right in his stomach area. He still kept talking to me entering the 3rd game. So I finally said "hey watch your nutz next time buddy." Everyone was laughing, but yet Sam still kept talking and I'm like hellooo? Nothing left to talk about, let's finish the series and see who is better.

After the series, a bunch of the 420's came up to me to personally talk to me about being the MVP in the league. They all showed their respects to me, and the most important one was Sam. I somewhat respect him as he approached and congratulated me. However, a couple of my own teammates were bickering at each because they kept saying that our team was not the "1 man show." While the rest of the league agreed and a couple of our teammates thought so too. I just ended up leaving to go to Hogan's and have our celebration meal there.

However, I could not even enjoy myself at dinner. I mean, let's see MVP, Championship, $, respect, and love you'd think I'd be happy. But nope, I did not like how my teammates treated the service at Hogan's. I mean yes the food took a lil long to get out there and they goofed on the fries. But to me, no need to call out the manager and asks for discounts and all that crap. After my teammates left, I went back in to speak to the manager and the waitress to apologize for my team's actions. Just because we won doesn't mean we own Hogan's now. I even gave the ladies an extra tip because I told them that they didn't deserve and I was ashamed to be apart of it.

Electra, feel better and congrats to Stephanie for finishing the NT!

Love Song

Bloodlines - Finally felt good to sleep in and not wake up for Bio! I remember what else I was thinking about yesterday now. This is something I've been reflecting on the past week too. You start to realize who your true souljahs are. I guess it's all good hence the name and be thankful for those who will strap it up with you. Anyways, tomorrow is my last day at Iroquois and of course I'll be bummed.

Tomorrow night, is the Championship game 420's vs. Z Team. Everyone's already looking at Sam vs me matchup since the ref had to separate us last time. I wonder if there will be a crowd for this game? This game, I play for is to my Iroquois Panther students.

Welcome Back
Stupid Blogger - Ya know I just had a post ready to be published then bam fricking blogger deletes it all. I've about had it with blogger, but yet does xanga do the same thing? Anyways, what I was saying was how excited I am this past Sunday. Finally The Kid has returned to service through teaching Jr. Church. It was the first time I got a chance to teach my new kids, yet I had to say good bye to my old ones :( Having # 1 in my class is kind of fun because I think, he believes he can get away with anything. Yet, I have dubbed my other Jonathon as J-Z to separate the two. Belicia and BooBoo already shared with me how much fun they had in class already. I just give credit to God for building that atmosphere where the students want to learn and be there. Abby, and Anna also decided to stay in my class after getting permission from their 5th grade teacher. However, I gotta talk to them to make sure that they have to move up despite how much they want to remain in my class. Grrr I can't remember what else I said from that deleted entry. I know one thing is that I need Him to continue to give me strength, energy, and wisdom to teach this class.

Dang it, I can't remember what else I said! Hmmm oh what's funny was that on Thursday night I displayed Stephanie's xanga on the big projector screen. I just wanted to get the Serena Paris song going and to see how good the speakers are in the classroom. Boy was the class shaking! However, it kind of backfired on me too because everyone saw the Sailor Venus, Moon, Neptune, Earth or whatever it is and thought that was my website. Oh well, just another day of entertaining the class.

PR's - Please pray for Mama Moy and Brother's Steve's dad as he will be going through a biopsy on his liver to see if he has cancer. Please pray as hard as y'all did for my G-Ma, plus for the both of their salvation as well.

Here I Am

Friday, December 03, 2004

Normalcy - Yesterday was the first time I did not go see my G-Ma. With all the classes I've been missing and procrastinating everything pretty much was due yesterday. So I never slept Wednesday night, and stayed on campus from 8:00 a.m. all the way to 9:00 p.m. Every class I went to, I just nodded off until something important was said. I was so bummed because I know the nurse came to my G-Ma's house to do a checkup on her to see how she is doing. So I guess I'll have to head there later tonight to see how she is doing.

My evening class last night I had to do yet another presentation. As class ended, D and I exchanged hugs because that was the last time we'll have class together. I hope her mom continues to stay strong while trying to battle cancer. During class was what pissed me off because of the retardness that happens in the ED program. 2 girls left at the beginning of class because they were totally wasted. One of them kept getting all emotional and she actually puked in the bathroom. A couple of our classmates went outside to calm them down, and thankfully they never came back. I mean if y'all gonna get drunk and wasted could it not wait till class was over? The scary part is these people are the future educators of tomorrow.

After class, I rewarded myself by accepting the invitation to go to Friday's with Anne, Kelly, and Silvana. They all went out for a drink while I stayed chilled with my cool glass of Coke :) They were all impressed that to this day I still have yet to touch an alcoholic beverage. We stayed at Friday's from 9:00 p.m. to 12:00 a.m. just talking away. It was really cool because a couple of us started sharing about our testimonies. I never realized that they were sis's in Christ, so that was really cool. I was excited to hear that Kelly was gonna get baptized at her church in March. While Anne is going on sabbatical from her service as the Christian Educator at her church so she could spend more time with her hubby at worship. I really hope Silvana finds that home she wants to buy because then she'll be right down the street from me. I hope things will return back to normal for me. However, that leaves me with a term paper, and an exam all on this Monday. Let's see, yup things are normal again as now I go do that ABC thing :(

War Wounds - After so many visits to Beaumont, my G-Ma has been finally discharged. However, I still wanted the docs to let her stay at least another extra day because she still seems weak. I went to my grandparents in the evening to see how she was doing. My G-Pa was preparing dinner for the both of them while my G-Ma was in bed. I had another conversation with my G-Ma while she was waiting for dinner. She kept talking to me about my past and how she loved raising me because I was the first. I remember those memories too, life in Memph, F-Hills, the Heights and Troy. So many things she talked about, brought tears in my eyes.

Next thing we talked about was my sis's graduation in a couple of weeks. She is so proud that she is graduating wants her to be successful. My G-Ma is bummed though because she cannot go due to her condition and the amount of energy it requires. Finally, my G-Ma showed me the scar of the area of her surgery. On TV, I would think it would be so cool to see it but seeing it in person is a different story. I couldn't stand to see the sight of the stitches and how big they cut her open. We have a lot of scars together, some that I wish I could of changed to prevent it.

I asked her one last thing before I left. The question was did so and so come and visit you in the hospital? She said no, and my G-Ma could sense my frustration about that. She even decided to defend the son of a gun by saying it's ok, I know he is shy about this. I am thinking you gotta be crazy to even say that, now I can understand Victor, Sonny, and Andrew not being able to see you because of their age. But come on, my sis made 1 visit, and my baby cuz even made 1. As Electra would say, such grrrness because of my grandparents love for him that holds me back from knocking out his selfish carcass. That's why those in Canton, keep defending him because he is family to me. I keep telling them that they're crazy just cuz we blood don't make us family. I tell you one thing though, next time I see him which I hope is soon, he better have a good reason for not being there. Otherwise all bets are off on this trader.........

4-Getta Bout It - My sleep schedule is all reversed now as I only attend the mandatory classes. I also took some time off at Iroquois to spend some more time at Beaumont. Come to think of it, you cannot even call it sleep as I just take short naps in the afternoon. Come night time, I do my work and I make my periodic stops to Beaumont. This morning, I went in and I was kind of upset at the nurse. Although in the Critical Care room, visiting hours are 12-8 p.m. I came in at 10:30. The nurse asked me to go to the patient's waiting room. I was upset because it is like ok, if your relative almost died would you be waiting in the "waiting room?" I mean she has no roommate, not too much of an English vocab, and just lies in bed everyday.

I went back to Beaumont after my championship game at OU, which was about 10:30 p.m. I was happy to find out at first that my G-Ma got moved into the Telemetry Unit, whatever that means. But it sounds better than Critical Care, however I walk in and yet I was still bummed because she still has more wires running through the course of her body. Of course, the nurse asked me to leave and as usual I have probs with authority. So I stayed to chat with my G-Ma until 11. It brought back so many memories of when they used to own Evergreen, and my G-Ma would go take a nap. I would be in the room playing or laying on the bed next to her taking a nap. Man that was like so long ago..............

The tough part again was playing v-ball knowing that a loved one is ill. The bleachers were packed with people holding signs, thunderstix, stomping, screaming and clapping away to see 4-Getta Bout It vs. BSF. The first game set the tone, as it was close the whole way and the final score 9-8 BSF. So many sideouts, caused the time to expire. 2nd game again was intense, but I kept telling the team to relax because even on my sore ankle, it was time to take over. 2nd game score 13-12 4-Getta Bout It. Which leads to the 3rd and deciding game, and Kristyn asked if we have to win by 2 in the huddle. I said "who cares, we're gonna get 15 this game, don't worry about anything else." Final score, 15-5, 4-Getta Bout It are now again back to back champs, 9 straight Finals, and 5th Championship.

After the game, peeps came up to me and asked about our performance. Some asked about my pancakes, while some asked about my faith. Joe thought we would lose after losing the first, but I never doubted us losing the series. I was thrilled to just smoke them in that last game to show that they are not equal to us. I felt as if justice was served for those who betrayed the original team Erin, Joel, Alisa, and Mike. Tonight's win was a team effort all the way around, as Mike's team made it clear they wanted Ashley and Kristyn to beat them by taking me out of passing. However, Ashley came through with some timely kills on the weakside, Kristyn's great passing allowed Stan to kill or set me, while Stan and I just dominated the service points. Already we are looking forward to next season because we made major upgrades already. As Sara and Katie will be joining us since they are no longer elgible for the OU Women's team.

Ron Artest? - I stayed to watch Kristyn play in the women's Finals too. Although winning her 2nd championship in tonight, an incident broke out after the final game. The 6 Booty Mama's who lost kept cussing out on the line judges. Especially this 1 big mama, who got up in his face to keep cussing him out. Finally Darnell, line judge started cussing back and was bout to charge at them. I jumped out of the bleachers, to help V, Kerri, and Mandy hold him back while Gary kept trying to send back into the office. Gosh it frustrates me that as a staff member, Darnell had to take it for the most part. However, again going back to Beaumont helps put things in perspective for me and I can only continue to pray that those wires be pulled out of my G-Ma soon.

On Fire
