my little rice bowl

The little person in the images below mean a lot to me and to the ones who provide for her.  So for her 1st bday I thought this would be the best way to explain my love for her.  Shes really smart / fun-loving and if you play with her emotions and make her look how she presents herself in the second image. You should come see her father and I, because you don’t want us coming to see you. Classic! 

Allow me to wipe off the dust. [ha] I know y’all been missing me. However you can’t miss something, when you never had it. Happy New year. Thought this was perfect. Like “perfect”, as in no bottle poppin, girl twerkin, rented car music video. I thought the videography was on point,  stationary subjects were effective, and the colors were NICE.ha It’s just been a long time since I’ve seen a video which was affective.  Bravo.

SKFO…thank you

Back at it again..Cincinnati Im so thankful this is here, and you should be also…Sick and tired of the same ol spots that want nothing but your money, but then we all show up in our Sundays best [and of course myself not willing to wear loafers], and finally realizing we all just paid to hang out with each other. ha FINALLY Im here to support the R!P of that exact form of “going out” or should I say “paying in” to that generic nightclub.

What is  R!P Cincinnati…? Its a very diverse cast of unique characters coming together with pure creativity to bring you a straight Raw.. Dance.. Party. This isnt going to be your ordinary dance party…Close your eyes and picture this with me. [keep your eyes open so you can read this]A two story old dirty @ss warehouse with an art exhibition of graffiti artist and photographers  with an after party of hipsters sharing 40’s with thugs, and that one girl who you know can’t dance, wants to dance with everyone. Picture  all my beautiful ladies sweating out their new outfits [or the top they borrowed] and not even having a single worry. Plus someone possibly stepping on Uncle Danny’s sneaker and he turns around and gives them a High-5. Finally throwing Ronriz in the air like we just won the Superbowl. Im ready!

Im not going to batter your eyes with tons of info, times, dress codes. Like they say in church… Come as you are. 

We all know your broke, but you better bring something! ha

Welp I did! I would like to Thank all of you ladies[pandas] and gents who have been supporting the blog for the past year and for all of those who constructively and Deconstructively criticize my work. ha What was a year seemed like months, but until I went through all my photos and see that I actually did too much. Everything you see on here is what I want to share with you through my eyes…The world is an ugly place with beautiful things moving on it. I do nothing for status or reputation, in my opinion I dont think I want either.[ponder] What do individuals do for their anniversary, some would purchase a loved one a gift, or expect an outing of some sort, maybe a nice stroll somewhere with a smooch on your lady’s face. As for me, for my one year celebration for [mylittlericebowl.com] I’m going to pass some experience. Dont let them lie to you, Life is long and its because of excuses why experience can be short lived. I told a wise man just the other day…never settle, because settling is just like sleeping, You will never get anything done. he approved.

So while sitting here in my thoughts and listening to Kanye- Touch the sky…I would like to Thank YOU! for sharing this past year with me.  Just like Andy Warhol said…well I dont know what he said, but I’m pretty sure it was cool…so do that…be you be cool.

Oh wow, for all of those who have been here checking my blog I guess I may owe you an apology, and well since Im not good at giving those Im not going to give you one. ha! For all those who know me, know that Ive been doing a lot of moving around. A LOT. Im going to miss Cincinnati, and those who know my new journey know that I will be back. Too many faces to not have you guys not laughing. Most know Im a man of many words but to keep it short  just remember, “to inspire those who are near you, you First have to inspire yourself.” Ive lived, loved and learned and if you find yourself goofy, a lil crazy or people just think your weird [such as myself] a wise man once told me…

” Weird is the cousin of Genius”

Please play Andre 3000- Love in War. while reading this post lol

Remember the good ol days when you could put on your tanktop, elastic wasted jean shorts, grab your high top BK Knights and roll down your striped crew socks.  Then go outside and try to find that girl you had a crush on and didn’t know what to say to her to let her know you really liked her, but you played with her like ur best friend just so she would feel like shes just one of the boys. You would let her ride double on your pegs, or if she really liked you she would ride doubles on the handle bars. Well I remember those days, and then finally when you muster all the pride and courage you could gather  after watching a list of Disney movies, you were ready to tell her how much you liked her. So you decided to play hide and go seek, just waiting for her to find you and then you hear her jelly sandals brushing all over the leaves and you could hear her creeping near. So she taps you on the shoulder and then you jump up with  your SuperSoaker 50 with 25 oz. of 35 foot watery pain and SuperSoak her in the face!

Well apparently these days started 2 decades ago and Supersoaker is celebrating their 20th Anniversary bringing out the orginal Supersoaker 50. Go to you locol if opened Toys R us and get you one. I am so I can go back and tell my crush Im sorry, and keep your eyes open because we have something planned for my Cincinnati/nyc peoples. ha
