I hate making Kool Aid...

Listening to Georgia by Ray Charles. ... I miss not having to work. ... I miss the days when I didn't have a cell phone and people just got in touch with me however they got in touch with me. I don't even remember anymore. ... I miss my grandma. She used to make me a tortilla and rub a stick of butter on it and wrap it up like a burrito. I miss her laugh cuz she used to snort when we'd crack her up. ... I miss playing home run derby in our front yard, me and my brother throwing tennis balls against the house. Our dad would let us do that all night, but my mom would get pissed cuz it would be loud inside the house, I guess. ... I miss being able to wear a hat every day. ... I miss putting on cleats every day. ... I miss making my brother make Kool Aid cuz was too lazy to do it. ... I miss having friends at my house even though I wasn't threre. ... I miss getting my uniform ready on game days. ... I miss being able to fight and not having to worry about going to jail. ... I miss sleeping on Alex's couch for weeks at a time because I had nothing else better to do. ... I miss talking to Leeann like 3 times a day. ... I miss Janelle coming and sitting on my bed to talk about dumb shit. ... I don't miss Tiffany and that's nice. ... I don't miss high school. ... I don't miss the people either, so I don't ask me to go to a reunion. All the people I want to talk to, I haven't lost contact with. ... I miss the days when I didn't like or worry about girls. A lot less headaches and a lot more free time. ... I miss the days without text messages. ... I miss hearing her call me "babe." ... I miss my mom's cooking. ... I miss when the WWF was fun to watch and all the guys either drank all the time or were on juice. ... I miss when you couldn't wait for the next Wu-Tang person to release an album. ... I miss dancng at weddings, and despite what the preconceived notion might be, I do dance. ... I miss my hot tub. ... I miss going to different cities every summer and teaching journalism classes. ... I already miss the "switch." Yes, that was for you. ... I miss when Larenz Tate was making movies. ... I miss when Ice Cube was a good rapper. ... I miss Los Angeles and the Bay. ... I miss pool parties bartended by my dad. He used to get the girls drunk for us. And Art used to not be able to close the deal with the girl and Alex and Gabe would laugh at him. ... You know what your problem is? You have no game. ... I miss girls with short shorts and pony tails. ... I miss when the Oakland A's were good, even if they're not my favorite team. ... I miss when cartoons used to be good besides the ones on AS. ... I always miss having my hair cut when it's like 2 weeks long. ... I also miss not having to worry about getting haircuts. ... I miss picking you up from the airport. ... I miss my Nissan. ... I miss my friends working at pizza places and getting free shit. ... I don't miss 100-plus degrees. ... I don't miss my parents screaming at each other. ... I miss not writing this blog. ... Listening to Other Side of the Game by Badu. ... Be cool and miss the kid.
