"I'm just a little bit caught in the middle. Life is a maze, and love is a riddle"

I've been gone for a minute but now I'm back. Do me a favor and pretend you missed me, yea? I had a ball on my little vacation. I missed my city. It was nice to go back. I've never had more fun being hit on by homeless people and choking every forty seven seconds because the air was so dirty. However, I'm never taking the train again. I was delayed two hours getting into the city, and four coming back. Not good at all.

Its weird though, cus when I got back, nobody missed me. I mean, not the people that I thought would. There was nobody at the train station when I got home. They didn't know where it was. They didn't mapquest it or anything until I got there. It was kinda depressing. Goddaddy seemed kind of irritated that he had to stop doing whatever he was doing to come pick me up, Aunty Isha was too busy being on the phone to be excited I was back, they told me they think the baby forgot who I was. Great. Elmo was in the bathroom when I got there and after that she went straight to sleep. She didn't even say anything to me. Wow. And mom, well, I mean. Whatever, we won't even go there. Ree & Jon where happy to see me. That made me happy.

I guess it only threw me off because it was so much the opposite of what happened in LA. Like I got there and everybody was at the train station to greet me, like not outside waiting, they were at the gate. The whole time, I don't know, I mean, they took care of me. I felt loved. I guess its cause they don't deal with me everyday? Like, maybe if I lived there again they wouldn't be so attentive? Probably. Absence makes the heart grow fonder & such. But that still doesn't explain whats up with my freaking family. I mean, I've been gone for a week and these niggas are acting like they wish I would've stayed gone. Its.....I don't know. Disconcerting.

On the other hand, people at school were glad I was back. They hugged me and screamed like white people have a tendency to do. It was cool. It made me feel hella better after the reception I got at home.

Anyway, I'm gonna stop talking really now. I hope you guys had a great week, and you were enjoying yourselves while I was gone.

Ashley

just another little black girl with dreams. I play my music too loud, and I don't listen. I'm only at peace when I'm in pain: when my wrist is sore from writing my emotions out like blood on the band-aid of a page, or when my throat is raw from singing my thoughts like tears into the air. I'm conflicted, and unrepentant, and I like the way this blogging shit makes me feel. This is the one and only place I'll never lie, honestly.
