Blunt Club

Blunt Club...
Thurs
02/07/08

Among all the regular homies... The B-Boys. The cuties... The MC's and Dj's, Banding on canvas... I had a special surprise--
Got to see Natasha, and catch up with Brenna.

Both old, but ooooh so good freinds from back in the day... ack in the crazy days.

Two new strong leads!!
Brenna wants a virgin Mary, and freind Ashley left me with a research mission to find out more about "Quan Yin" for a backpiece.

Dropped the thesis on the both of them, prompted by Brenna's bragging on my behalf (I love old freinds!!! They remember me from when I was smart... lol;) For reciprocity's sake, I cant pass the chance to brag on how sweet and innocent and cuuuute Brenna was back in the day!!
I remember when she first tried to come into Fascinations when I worked there, i almost had to turn her around. She represents all of the "sugar" in the "everything nice" that girls are ;)

Ashly expressed that she wanted a backpied, but she wanted it to be sexy.

Couldn't resist laying it on her three-prong thesis style...

To be expanded upon soon... that thesis...
But I'd much rather just show you :)

Much more on that later.

Tasha.
As soon as I came in the club, trying to make my way to the dance floor, I excused my way past a cute little petite in a wooly cap.
Nonchalant you know, "your cute, but get out of my way" kind of "ill talk to you later sorta vibe."

Tasha turned around and would have whupped my ass if she wasnt so happy to see me.
Tasha used to be our collective party mom. She is the shit.
Provider for the entire East Valley's hodgepodge clan of outcast 2nd gen AZ and AZN immigrants trying to make names, and lives for ourselves. Through positive means or otherwise...

She will ramble for hours on how I used to come to her house and go straight for fridge or the candy bowl. How I had to carry her from a party once... how, somehow, she in turn still had to drive, as she was still, miraculously, the best off of all of us...
And rattle off similarly affectionate stories and profiles for any of the umpteen other of us that used to crash out on her floor after prties, before parties, between parites, between apartments, or when kicked out of parent's house.
MAD love for Natasha!!

Put it the UFF down.
Jamming around like a joyous rasta earlie on, i didnt even know who he was.
I just Noticed and acknowledged the vibe.

When I heard that voice... I KNEW who he was.
and I NOTICED the vibe.

Throughout the night, In the back of my head:
Thoughts of Brasil.
This is the kind of thing to record and bring with.
Share with the homies.
I remember thinking like this when i was there... making memories, taking pics, to share when i got home. Its SO funny to be thinking like that around....

It gives me the feeling that I have truly planted roots...
Now I am going back to water them.
Growing into The World.

Eventually, I would like to spend a few months out of the year there.
January through March... New Years, Folio, Carnaval Season.... Tatu season.
The end of Rainy season... Beginning of Summer time...
New life.
Energy.
Rebirth/Regeneration.
Productivity.

Beauty.
Inspiration.
