One thing.....

One thing I like about myself is my sincerity. I am not the type who will pee on your leg and tell you that it's raining.

I have tact, but I don't sugar coat unnecessarily.

As my workfriend says, I am a-okay until one crosses that line. Once it's crossed, there's no turning back. Which sorta goes to my shorter temper the older I get.....but I digress.

I think most of you who still read this blog read it because I am sincere. I share a lot of my personal feelings in it....sometimes it pulls at the heartstrings (awwwww) and sometimes it is funny. Sometimes it is angry, and even when it's angry, it's funny, because I am like that in real life.

That said...... ironically, I hate being "judged" for my honesty and sincerity. Sure, people will make judgments about me all the time....I am an artists, that's what artists get. :-)

But let me say this....the hottest issue in this blog is probably Adam4Adam. I get more negative comments directed toward me about Adam4Adam that it's crazy. I mean sheesh, all of a sudden, I can't have a dissenting opinion about a damn dating site.

I am not Keith Boykin. You will not find deep thoughts about the state of black gay america on this site.

I am not Rod. You will not find the best news on my site.

I am Rashid. I write books, ______. (You know the rest. lol) I write books and sometimes, if I'm lucky, I sell books.

THAT SAID.....(whoa, that was a long preface.)

Why did this bama ass motherfucker try to leave a comment in MY diary telling me to "get over myself?" FIRST of all, did you really think I would approve it? Second of all, did you really could leave a FAKE email address on my REAL diary with my REAL opinions on it?

It seems as though the bama in question took it kind of hard that I don't date older men. In fact, here is another part of his comments:

Plenty of young guys like old guys, and vice versa. It is not freaky, and "ewww" as you put it.

And if this person still reads my blog, please remember that in the same post you're criticizing, I also said:

I just want folks to remember that they are a PERSON behind their screen names. They are thinking, rational, compassionate people, attempting to interact with others who are thinking, rational, and compassionate. Let's put some more thought into our first impressions, folks!

Now....specifically, NO, I am not interested in a 60 year old. Or 50 year old. I might kick it with someone who was in their early 40s, but I COULD NOT, under any circumstances, kick it with someone who looked like they could be my father. I CAN'T DO IT. IT IS EWWWWW TO ME.

Why should I have to get over myself? LOL

I just don't get it....and maybe I wasted too much time even thinking about this, since there's definitely no way in hell I would change my mind about this.

So, whatever..... since home skillet didn't leave a REAL email address, I will assume he is one of the 60 year olds on A4A who wants my hot bod. (LOLOL yeah right)

Shit, I need some levity here....a brother got back from a funeral and memorial service in the same damn day.....
