Flo rida

I heard an interview with the rapper Flo rida the other day on the radio and it was actually very interesting.  He grew up in the projects in one of the toughest neighborhoods in Miami, Florida (imagine that!)  Well since he has made it big he does a lot for the community he grew up in.  He gives a LOT of money back – he has a Thanksgiving program where he gives away hundreds of turkeys to the poor.  He really makes a lot of effort to help the people that are in the very poor community he grew up in.

Now I bet you are wondering why I am telling you this.  This really gives me a very different view of him as a person.  This new information allows people like me (and you – don’t lie) to feel less guilty for enjoying songs like Low, Sugar and the new one that I don’t know the name of but when I hear it on the radio I never change the channel but feel like a freak for enjoying it.  You know the “you spin me right round baby” song…. Now I will not have to feel guilty anymore knowing that even though his music is cheesy he is trying to make a difference.  I am just happy that there are rappers that are out there trying to do some good – no matter how awesome or unawesome their music.

So I am in full support of Flo rida and singing – BOOTS WITH THE FUR.  Go out and buy some Flo rida music.

Don’t let me regret this blog Flo rida.

Yeah that’s right – I just wrote a blog about Flo rida, and?!

I did a bad, bad thing

I invited some of my girlfriends out to Salado to spend a weekend relaxing in the country and riding some 4 wheelers. I made sure to inform both Chris and Josh prior to this engagement so that they would be aware of what was going on. Well I let the girls wear bandanas, which I knew that Josh and Chris would be pissed about it but was just hoping they might not notice. This was totally the boy’s idea that was stolen by me – 100%. I got the very saddest IM from Josh today telling me that he and Chris were sad I did that. So sorry boys!

According to Josh these are the rules I must follow:
“we just need to know that these friends of yours are super special… and they understand that wearing the bandana is not some super cool thing that a couple of hot guys on 4wheelers invented… but it is a symbol of friendship and awesomenss”

They are worthy – they all appreciate the importance of the 4 wheeler and are great wonderful friends of mine. We have started a tradition by taking this trip and it felt like the bandanas were right.

The bandanas will always belong to you guys! I will never let another group wear them without first seeking your approval. Thank you for caring so much…..
