1. As an adult, whenever I am visiting friends in another city, I always make a hotel reservation. This allows for my personal independence and space, but it also prevents my friends from having to adjust their lives too much. That said, a couple of friends came into town the other weekend, I informed them that I already had a house guest, but they insisted on crashing at my place. They let me know that it was fine if they "slept on the floor." I was not ok with this, so I insisted they make some sort of reservation elsewhere. It created a tense tone for the weekend. Yet, isn't my personal level of comfort important. This isn't undergrad spring break in Cancun where eight of us crammed into one room. Was I too harsh?
2. I don't really feel that I had any barbeque on the 4th, as I spent the entire time on the grill.
3. I planned a breakfast date for Thursday morning with the homie lover friend.
4. So two weekends ago I engaged in the New York Pride festivities. Actually, I went to parties all weekend - no parade and all of that. On Saturday, at the Atlanta invades New York party, a young man from the adult film industry approached me (he's one of my favorites) to compliment me on my look and to ask for my number. I obliged and took his as well. I have no intention of using it, though I will say that it did do something for my ego to have him approach me. Could I date a porn star?
5. My friends flaked on Martha's Vineyard for the 4th of July holiday.
6. Didn't the whole R. Kelly thing blow over rather quickly and calmly?
7. Fantasia and Lena Horne share the same birthday. For some reason, there is something really odd about that to me.
8. I feel like Ebony missed some key men in there top 25 "cool edition." Who would you put on the list?
9. I am glad to see the William sister back at it. Between clothing lines and dating Common, I forgot that they even played tennis.
10. So to get my mind off of the homie lover friend, my friends introduced me to some nice and rather interesting guys this past weekend. Perhaps I will go on a date with one of them and see what happens.
11. I went to a house party on Saturday and this great brownstone in Harlem. It always makes me feel warm inside to meet black gay couples being progressive.

One Souful Negro - thanks for stopping by man... I do enjoy cooking... the thing is I usually don't because I'm either super busy or just not motivated to create meals for one... and I'm not a big leftover fan... So what was on the grill... chicken, salmon, this spicy catfish I like to make, burger (beef and turkey), sausages and hot dogs
The breakfast date was cool... the spot we went to is a block away from work... it was a really good way to start my day...
Well I'm going to go out with this guy this weekend... I'm a little nervous... I don't really want to go... not because the guy's not cool... but it just seems weird... So I'm sure I'll have a story to tell...
You skipped completely over #4... lol..

#4. could you date a porn star?
