Run DMC Is Outside My Window…
…as far as I can tell. I am currently subletting on West 127th St, in you guessed it Harlem. Now, I’m not one who is all about stereotypes, but the last time I was here was a choir trip in 2003 when we looked outside the window we saw black people playing basketball. I have come a long way since then, and when I walk around, very few people at all are playing basketball at all.
Apartment hunting has gone alright. We looked at a place off of W 146th, which is a little farther up, but is close to 2 different subway stops and is really affordable. Finding a place in this city is crazy, once you actually might like something, you have to be able to go with it or risk loosing it. Only problem with the one we looked at on Tuesday is… its not completed yet. We weren’t able to take a look at an actual finished apartment. So the decision is tough, go on faith that it will be finished by the 15th so I can have a place to live, or let it go and try to find something else.
On another note, American Gladiators is AMAZING. I feel I was to young when it was really popular to actually enjoy the program. Why couldn’t I change my name to Blaze when I was a kid? That would make me memorable to give a job to, right?
“Alright, it is down between LameAss McGee and Blaze Brewer. I know McGee has been in the industry for the past 15 years and has several PhDs, but you know what? I like that Blaze guy, he has tight abs and threatened me with a gigantic Q-tip. So it’s settled, Blaze Brewer it is.”
Goodnight
