School's Out!

Thursday, June 5, 2008




Yesterday was my kids last day of school, and it made me nostalgic thinking about the summertime, and the things i used to love about it, like sun made tea, snow cones, playing in the sprinklers, fireworks, and BBQ's, waking up late, and the fresh fruit, wasn't watermelon the sweetest thing back in the day...


Summer trips, and long car rides to the lakes, flip flop sandals, and my hair either in one ponytail, or a bunch of braids till school was back in, the way my brother smelled after he came in from playing basketball all damn day, lol still sticks in my noise, ughhhhh and my momma's yelling and telling him to get his goat smelling ass in the shower, those, were the days......yall reminisce with me what can yall remember, and miss about being a kid during the summertime.....

I wish those days - would - come back once mo'! Why did those days - eh - ver have to go? (Probably cuz his strung out ass got locked the fuck up!)

"and my momma's yelling and telling him to get his goat smelling ass in the shower"

LMMFAO...GOAT HAHA

i remember:

- waking up and staying in the streets playing until the streetlights came on

- my aunt letting me go play and ride her neighborhood when i would visit her for the weekends ans her not having to worry about someone snatching me up!

-the honey dripper lady

-the smell of sunblock n plastic floats for the pool (weird i know)

-climbing trees with my boy cousins

-when playing was actually playing and we wanted to stay outside n play, nowadays mofos wanna sit n the hiuse and play video games all day!

^^^^ no it ain't K, lol that was the whole point of this post, whatever you can remember bout the summer that makes you nostalgic, smells can bring back a lot of shit, like i still remember the way the books would smell on the last day of school when the teachers are cleaning out the clasrooms, and giving away stuff....

speaking of food, i miss homemade ice cream my friend mom and dem had a machine that actually made that stuff, it was the best tasting shit yall......

Hugo Newman said...

I miss having to lie to my grandpop about his tough ass beef ribs that claimed more teeth than sugar daddy's! Talking about he soacked them all night - in what? Battery acid?

I also miss my big titty auntie hugging me with my face gently cradle by them cocoa brown mammarie while she lightly help the back of my head exclaiming, "Baby you done got SO BIG!!!" And I'm like if Uncle Walker ain't have two pistols and a short temper, I'd let you SEE how big I got!

Lastly, I miss my neighbors who were poor as hell but had the most fun. Damn a icee, they'd pour some sugar and kool aid in a bag or ice and have a ball crushing it up. Slip and Slide my ass! They Daddy cleaned up the school across the street so he had trash bags and soap for days! We were on a 100 ft slip and slide sliding for ever with his pits chasing us all the way down! We'd go to the water park and be like this sucks!

Hugo Newman said...

And if they liked you they'd let you! That's how you knew. No corny love letters or anything. she ain't bust you in the face - you were halfway there.

I remember trying to get all my chores done by noon so I can go outside until the lights came on. Did we ever go in the house to eat?

I remember sneaking in the back of the playground trying to smoke weed for the first time.

The summertime was the best time for fights in my neighborhood. I'm talking toe to toe, not this punk ass stuff going on now.

I remember having to sit and get my hair straighten and curled by the old lady in the neighborhood and then being threaten to mess it up? It was the freaking summer!
