Wow. Like it couldn't get any worse. I almost passed out from work because I didn't eat yesterday and I made like 40 baked, roasted, grilled, and fried chickens. I was working in front of ovens and open fires for eight hours carrying pikes with four chickens on each.
A) I found out this chick I was flirting with but hooked my friend up with instead. This chick's best friend/roommate is cute as fukk. I told him I was trying to holler at her friend so he wouldn't feel bad about going in on home girl.
I told him to keep it between us. He told her! Then she told me. Girl A and I are friends now. She's cool. I'm just not trying to go there with her. She told me she didn't tell her friend. Lmao, I don't believe her. But girl B has been going out of her way to talk to me. So maybe I should explore it. I just don't want it to be awkward because we all work together. And I could see all of us being friends.
B) I get off of work at 11pm if I'm lucky. And I gotta cross through some real dangerous areas to get home. I'm biking home and my chain slipped and got stuck. I was in the heart of the hood too. The 30s ain't no joke. I couldn't call an Uber because I lost my wallet. I have nobody to call to save my ass. I walked a mile through the 20s and 30s solo with a bright ass top of the line bike.
I'm walking past the projects and hella nikkas are out in groups ON BOTH SIDES OF THE STREET. I wasn't going to bytch up in front of these nikkas so I couldn't turn around because then I look like an easy meal. I heard them talking about me as I walked by. They were doing fast math on me. There were 6 or 7 clocking me hard.
I saw a few start walking behind me while a couple on bikes rode in front of me. I didn't flinch or look back. I accepted I gotta take this ass whooping. I pulled my blade out and kept it concealed in my pocket. I figured if I give one a buck fifty and put my bike on my shoulders and spin in a circle it'd be a good weapon and I'd look crazy. Maybe they'd get scared. Or they'd shoot me.
Either way fukk it. I decided how I died. And that's a honorable death. I'll be carried to Valhalla for dying an honorable death.
One asked me for a cig. He was in front of me. I knew he was sent to slow me down so the ones behind could jump me. I said, "naw breh, I ain't got nothing for you breh. I got my wallet stolen and my cell phone earlier today. What up with a cigarette homie?"
They knew I was from the Lower Bottoms from the way I said it. I gave that nikka a non aggressive but stern look. I never broke eye contact with him. All of sudden a lexus pulls up in front of me. I was surrounded. Lol either my bike or my dead body was going in that trunk I figured. I looked at the driver and gestured for him to GTF out my way. And he actually moved.
These nikkas figured I wasn't an easy lick and let me live. I got very lucky. Luckily I did grow up in this city and in another hood. My bike is fresh as fukk, so they thought I am one of the rich hipsters who lives in our neighborhood.
I have a car. But my gate clicker broke so I can't get out of the driveway until I replace it. I don't have my wallet so a taxi isn't an option.
I just laughed out loud while walking at how fukked up this is. Really bro? Lmao this is my life right now. The icing on the cake was I got a text from one of my old clients telling me they're worried about me and they want me back. 30 dollars an hour, plus free food, plus I can hustle, and free room and board in the Berkeley Hills.
I know they are worried. I helped raise hella kids as a nanny. My former clients love me. I can't go back to that life though. 30 an hour with no cap on how much I make a week is tempting. But I want to be a chef and I'm too close to go backwards. I don't respond to the texts.
I'm sorry to worry so many people but I can't tell them I'm depressed and severely anxious to quote my doctors. So I don't respond. There's a lot I want to tell them because they really do care about me. I know they're scared. I think I'm going to email all my clients letting them know.
I'm ashamed to be diagnosed with this shyt. How pathetic can I be? Orphan, heart broken, failed athlete, walked away from a successful business to a low paying job, nobody likes me, and I've been diagnosed with depression and high anxiety.
That's hard to say. I told my ex everything after I drank way too much wine and she started crying. She was raped multiple times. And abused viciously. She cried for me.
I know she still loves me. I'm never going back. But I know she loves me. I still love her. We're not in love though. We both made our decisions and we're moving forward. We were great parents and we loved the fukk out of each other. I would never raise my hand to the mother of my children or anyone woman I love. And I would bury someone alive for doing that. We were trying to have a kid. It just never kept.
I know this will sound crazy but I know I'll be okay. I believe in myself and love. I have faith in love. And I love myself. I ask my ancestors for protection and balance everyday. So fukk it, I'm dancing in the rain no matter what.

I gotta make it for every orphan everywhere. I'm doing this for all of us. Nobody wanted us but we still here. So fukk it. I'm going to win and do it gracefully. We need a hero. Every group has one except for us. I'm going to be that guy.
When I was a kid I wanted to know orphans and adopted kids can make it. Pac will always be my hero man. I know he wrote some songs for me. "Tupac cares if don't nobody else cares."
