On top of that, my mother is back in the hospital. Actually, she's been in and out over the past few months. I don't really write bout it too much. Guess I'm struggling tryna handle the shit. Mom is 68 years young. Until a few months ago, she was completely independent. Drive, shop, work out. All of that shit. Well, she recently had her second nervous breakdown. The first one happened when I was about 12. And now she's dealing with this shit again, mixed with the potential of developing early symptoms of dementia. So it's kinda hard watching her go through this phase of her life. My mom and I are extremely close, and this is the first Thanksgiving that I have not shared with her. I try not to harp on
this shit too much. The reality is that my mom is still here. Many
a nigga spent Thanksgiving grieving the loss of a loved one. So,
I won't complain. Just sharing.

And I don't know why the hell I even got shocked and offended that Gargamel tried to give a nigga da blues for goin to see her over the past few months and spending so much time with her. I was mad at first, but I have come to accept the fact that the bitch is crazy and prolly dealing with some fukked up mental issues her damn self. Nothing she does can shock me anymore. The shit pisses me the fukk off. But shocked?? Nah. Fukk a Gargamel. Psycho, bitch. She needs some damn weed in her life.
Anyway, Turkey day was cool. Went to see mom and spend some time with her. Had dinner with the kids. Then cried myself to sleep. I think I just got overwhelmed with everything going on. Don't get it twisted.....A nigga is still thankful to be in the space I'm in. In fact, I can acknowledge the fact that being married to Gargabitch is making me fukkin stronger. Hasn't been a great year, but a nigga is still pushin. I'm determined to beat da shyt outta 2012. Things are gonna get better. I won't accept anything less.
Anyway, Black Friday.....Woke up, pissed, and looked to see if I was still black. Yep. Back to bed.
