"guys out hunting and girls doing likewise ...it's like the summer's a natural aphrodisiac"
not my words but nonetheless true ...Will Smith's biggest hit "Summertime" is an anthem of sorts. partly because of the beat laid over a sample from Kool & the Gang's 1974 hit "Summer Madness", but more because the sentiment rings true; true like Ray Allen's jumpshot,
so the temperature's rising like the 1st words on R. Kelly's 12 Play album: track 4 ...old
the young lady i've been "seeing", in quotation marks because at this point i don't know that anybody would qualify as a girlfriend (whatever that is), has made her intentions quite known. she's looking to secure a title, whatever title i see fit to bestow i'm thinking, but definitely an upgrade from occasional bed buddy. i get it. in a way, i'm looking for the same thing... butt... not a typo, just a play on the fact that even at this advanced state of maturity (my words), giving up some more of my freedom feels like a loss.
i'm fully aware that this is the beast in me speaking. trust me, i have done quite a bit of taming said beast over the past couple of years. but when it comes to booing up, building relationships with kids, daily check-ins and the like...whew! why am i sweating???
...more to come!!!
