Most of my friends know about my obsession with Tupac Shakur. When I am tipsy, oh hell, let's just say drunk...I listen to his Greatest Hits CD continuously. Needless to say I have to rap to the pieces that I know.
Today, I decided to listen to his CD on my way to work. I usually don't because I get angry and then I will be a pissed off sista all day at work. But today was different. I was listening to "Keep Your Head Up" and I started sobbing in my car. It was like he was talking directly to me. I have heard this song I know a million times but it was like today was the first time I really "heard" the words. I feel like I have been struggling for so long. Now things are soooo much better for me, financially and emotionally, and here I am "sick" again. But today Tupac was telling me to stay strong and don't give up.
I was depressed most of the weekend. Feeling sorry for myself and my situation. I felt like why should I keep fighting, when it may or may not work. I think the anxiety of not knowing "what" they are going to do when I go to Houston and then what will happen when I come back home is starting to get to me. I am usually not this pessimistic but this time I am having a hard time dealing with it all.
But I am going to try to do as Tupac says...Keep my head up and keep going even when I am knocked down.

Sorry you had a sucky weekend, chica. Remember that I'm always here, I'll even make you some spaghetti! ;-) Or something like killer punch! Just kidding! Houston is going to be ok. There's a better solution than the one you've been given. I think that everyday for you. From our mouths to God's ears. I ditto Shelley's quote!
Plus, we've got too much to do the next few years! Lots of partying! And scaring off boys. Oooohhh, and the barbecue! I'm coming! I love that Tupac song, btw. One of my favorites. Girl, look at you with your thug loving first thing in the morning! ;-) Sending you my smileys! :-)
Kim,
