The Problem of BLOG
Get it? See, there was a class at Georgetown called "The Problem of God"..... oh, never mind.
So, I had to admit....I used to be addicted to online diaries and blogs, but now it's really hard for me to keep up. I used to be knee-deep in DiaryLand, son. For real.
But see, now I am having a slight issue. I have three friends (real friends) who keep blogs now. One of them tells me all her business anyway (and I tell her mine) so we typically get the scoop before it hits the blog anyway. Another, I subscribe to his Xanga blog, so I read it when it's updated. Okay, sometimes I skim it, but I always come away knowing what's up with him. It's tough to retain the info sometimes, but if he's ever hurt or in trouble, I'd know. He and I talk a lot, and when he asks if I read his blog, it's usually like "You knew about so-and-so, right?" and if I hadn't read it, he'll tell me anyway. I also know with certainty that these two friends read my blog. (I SEE YO STATS, I SEE YO STATS!)
Third friend....see, I try to be a good friend, right? I think I am a pretty empathetic, gracious, kind-hearted kind of nigga.
It made me feel some kind of way when I ask my BOY how he's doing, and I'm referred to the BLOG.
And I read the blog, and he's going through all types of shit, and I sympathize or whatever.....but I still feel some kind of way that I was referred to the BLOG. Like dude, I KNOW you. wtf?
You just kinda see how it is, I guess. Disappointed, but not trippin. Sympathetic, but not going out of my way. Open to talking about it, but not going to mention it unless he does. It's his life, I care....but I got referred to the BLOG, dawg.
Some kinda way....
