3,2...Happy Hump Day!

Allo Hello peoples! It's New Years Eve AND Hump Day?! Thought Christmas was already over but the Holiday gifts just keep on giving huh?

Oh yeah...Whoop! Whoop!!

Man this year known as 2014 is over in just a matter of hours. That's just crazy! Well so am I but I'm getting off topic...anywho, I'm excited to get 2015 started when the ball drops on midnight and fireworks go off, beverages and lagers are raised in the air in celebration and of course all the Whoo! girls and Hell Yeah! boys kicking and screaming in unison.

Earplugs sold separately.

Working on the 'Year That Was 2014' post so that should be uploaded for your eyeballs either New Years Day or Friday. Looking back at it and comparing it to the year, it had it's highs and lows but overall I would give this year a B+ on the grade scale. At least it wasn't F...not that kind of bad teacher.

Alright people, get back to playing with your Christmas gifts and getting ready to ring in the New Year. Literally.

Have A Great Day and if I just so happen to "forget" to log in tomorrow...wishing y'all a Happy 2015!

Make 2015 Your Year.

Believe That!

And for the final time of 2014...welcome the quotable trio to the stage!

Only dreams give birth to change."

Viva La Hump Day!

Humpmas Eve!

Happy Humpmas Eve!

Allo Hello you crazy meddling kids! Have you been naughty or nice this year? Tell the truth...either way, it's okay because today is Hump Day!

Whoop! Whoop!! 

Extra Bonus for Hump Day because it's Christmas Eve! And there's no snow on the ground...unless you log into GTA: Online where there is quite a lot of white stuff on the ground for digital vehicular madness! It's actually suppose to be around 70 degrees upon Christmas morning?!? It truly is a Christmas weather miracle!

I like the Christmas warmth.

So as most of you are racing around to get those last minute gifts before the doors are locked at the local mall, don't forget the wrapping paper haha. I waited a tad bit later to grab gifts but it only took 2 hours to get my shopping done so cheers to that lol.

If I don't log in for a holiday post, I blame being distracted by shiny gift wrapping.

Wishing all of you awesome guys and gals a Happy Humpmas Eve and Merry Christmas!

My gift to you...the quotable trio! Now with 50% more BOOM!

#ALLLivesMatter (On Tap 148)

Allo Hello awesome men and women everywhere! How was your weekend? Awesome, Great, Good, Meh...I would have to select B) Great! as my answer. Nothing too exciting like a road trip down to Miami (man that was fun!) just a chill weekend with daily events that had my attention. Good times and even got some sleep as an extra bonus! #Winning.

Unfortunately, it was a crazy weekend up in NYC with the tragic event of two NYC Police Officers shot "execution style" in their own cruiser by a cowardly vigilante. No call for help, not even a yell from the shooter before he fired. Just went up to the police cruiser and fired; and as a shady extra bonus, the shooter took his own life moments later.

Both officers were pronounced dead upon arrival at the local hospital.

The guy said in an Instagram post that he wanted to live forever as a gangster and yet at least in my view he will be remembered as a cowardly piece of shit. (Pretty sure I'm not the only one with that thought) Now I understand the main reason this guy did this was because of the events recently involving police using excessive force which led to two unfortunate deaths...but this is definitely not the way to proclaim "justice being served".

From my perspective, I understand the protests that have happened around America recently. Police should be held to a higher standard because well they whether you like 'em or hate 'em are here to serve us. It's not just #BlackLivesMatter or #WhiteLivesMatter...EVERYONE'S LIFE MATTER.

I personally know a lot of police officers and happy to call some of them my friends. I'm very proud of those police officers that lace up their boots, press their uniform and put on that badge and do work every single day representing their department the right way. Yes, their are some dirty cops out there but there are dirty people in every aspect of work if you really take a closer look.

This is the United States of America; the best damn country on the planet. Period. It's not just the police that need to do better, we need to do better as a Nation. We all have flaws and the power to mold them into a positive. Can we get past these dark times? Yes we can! But we can't do it alone...we have to get along and work together to finding a solution. No matter if your white, black, brown, purple, green or magenta; we ALL MATTER.

My prayers and condolences are with the family and friends of the two fallen NYPD officers; the ordeal is much harder on the heart especially with Christmas just around the corner.

Nation do work today and spread some love wherever you may find yourself at. Plus it's GAMEDAY at my location so that alone has giving me all of the Monday Motivation to make today an awesome day. 

Have A Great Monday and Keep Doing The Damn Thing. 

And the Damn Thing is being Awesome!

Believe That!

Put Some Hump On It!

Rise. Hump Day Is Here!

Allo Hello people! ITTTTTTTTT'SSS HUMP DAY!!!

Whoop! Whoop!!

Man, it's a good day to be alive! Well I mean it's a good day to be alive any day of the week but as an extra bonus for Humps involved! Hey now...

Feeling pretty good after watching VCU get another good win inside the Animal known as the Stu in very convincing fashion. Even though I got only a limited amount of sleep due to all the excitement and HAVOC in my veins, twas' still a fun day and an even better day in progress.

And also watching this hundreds of times into the AM may have something to do with the lack of sleep...Pure Dunking Awesomeness from Justin Tillman thanks to an amazing pass from Bri! 

Anywho, Hump Day is here and if that doesn't put on your smile on your face...well go pout in the corner over there. It's a great day in the making, now make it so!

The Daily: Just Play Your Game

GOOOAAALLLLL!

Allo Hello ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages!

I'm feeling pretty ecstatic upon hearing the alarm this morning. Not just because it's GAMEDAY! (Go Rams!) but also because last night my indoor soccer team won this season's championship in convincing fashion!

Think 10-2 on the scoreboard is convincing enough? 

So in short...yeah kind of pumped today haha. Even rocking the championship shirt under my uniform today...cause why not? One of my other clubs is in their championship game tonight so I'm pulling for them for a great game! Good luck Lads!

What's the gameplan for Tuesday? Today folks just play the game and play it well. Don't let your frustrations or slip-ups or shot comings turn the game around negatively because it will affect your overall performance along with infecting everything else around you not in positive way. Then imagine your anger level when it gets promoted to "Fuck This Shit!" RageFest.

And we don't want that...

Just stick to your gameplan for today and execute it as best you can. If adjustments need to be made on the fly, make 'em so.

Who knows? Today you might get your own championship shirt haha.

Have A Great Tuesday People!

Time to play the game.

Believe That!

Stay Warm Monday. (On Tap 147)

Monday and I are making music together. Victor is handling the art!

Allo Hello! How was your weekend?? 

Hopefully your answer is one of those words these kids are using these days like awesome, cool, stellar or totally radical!

Mine was a mixture of all those adjectives and a few more. It was a rather chilly one but that just required turning up the heat fun wise. Plus standing in line at Hardywood to grab a bottle of Christmas Morning also made my thermostat go up a couple degrees.

Totally worth the wait btw.

Anywho, my weekend was a pretty stellar with Monday giving me the stink eye upon waking up. Yet I'm still of the mindset that today is gonna be a good day as Ice Cube would say. Guess I need to go warm the Hamsterball up and get ready for a new day. Even though sleeping in would be ideal at this time of the morning, I got a day to conquer and enjoy.

Looking beyond the horizon, it's gonna be a busy week in and out my office space. And yet I'm alright with that because I will make sure that throughout the events, deadlines and conversations had that I fully enjoy myself. Which is part of the game that some players fail on the daily basis...learn to enjoy yourself in the chaos. 

Hakuna Matata. It means no worries haha.

Make sure to enjoy yours no matter how many Monday faces you run into today.

Today is gonna be crazy but at the end of it, all will be worth it.

Believe That!

Lyrical Spiritual 45.

Check out Alexiuss stuff. It's Epic. Truly Epic.

You handle your own when you become a man

And become a man when you handle your own

Ain't much I can do, but I do what I can

But what can I do if I do till it's gone?

The chorus from the slums of Gadsden is rotting my brain.

With it's grim Southern Halloween melody yet truthful lyrics.

Don't worry. The link will be near the end so that you can hear it.

As always on a Friday, let's get this Spiritual started.

Bystanders and scalawags strolling down the streets with "swag".

Fool's gold with the thought of that in life this is all I need to have.

Let me grab this rusty shovel and dig that thought from out your stem.

In order to reign, you need to have more than "swag" at the realm.

 I'm not some monk preaching the good stuff to get you turnt up.

I'm not a professor with all the answers to all of your complex problems.

I'm not the boy of your dreams, I'm not the needle that patches your seams.

I'm just someone searching for the key to unlock my puzzling dreams.

The tool is somewhere out there in society.

Somewhere in the ocean of nuts, hoes, bolts and screws.

In all that heap of junk lies hidden gems under the muck.

Yet people don't want to get their hands dirty. Others hoping to find them via beginner's luck.

You crave that answer to your problem solving equation?

Well I'm not a mad scientist creating a potion to blow your problems up in proportion.

In order to get things done, the source or power is within you.

Nothing beyond the norm will get you picked on. Maybe even shunned.

But who cares...as long as your having fun.

This is real.

I'm not mad. Actually I'm happier than I've ever been.

Because I figured how to take the scissors and cut from within.

All the doubt and negativity has been sliced and diced.

The garden isn't complete but the new trimming has made everything bright.

What that mean Kazie?

It means that I've shipped unwanted baggage via Southwest.

Now I can fly in coach with a smile out West.

While sitting near the window figuring out this last question to pass my next test.

In order to be successful, what obstacles must I conquer next?

Cheers!

Let The Hump Take Over.

Allo Hello and welcome to the weekly holiday that has the Internet buzzing since 1999! It's Hump Day!

Whoop! Whoop!!

This one is gonna be another quickie...giggity...due to a jam-packed Wednesday morning for myself and I had just enough to type tap typa a quick post up. Currently feeling energized thanks to the sun rising up over the tall buildings. Ahh ultraviolet wake-up rays!

Can't complain. Well I could but I'm deciding not too...Not being able to workout in the gym is annoying (stupid futbol injuries..gosh! lol) but it's better than upgrading them to major injuries if I push myself just a tad too hard. Instead I'm just gonna be thankful for another day on this 3rd rock and enjoy it. What's wrong with having a little bit of fun on the daily? Not a damn thing.

But man it would be swell to lift a few kettlebells today but gonna keep patching up today; hopefully I can return to the weight room before the weekend. Probably another evening session of Assassin's Creed is in order after clocking-out today. Nothing wrong with a little gaming goodness.

Anywho, Hump Day is awesome. You're awesome. Your haters think you're awesome. I think you're awesome. And yeah...awesome haha.

If this phone don't stop buzzing...

Guess I should pick this one up.

Enjoy Your Hump Day Peoples!

And remember the awesomeness that's within you and let it shine like the sun or that golden custom grill from the Lone Star State.

From Ground Zero To Rooftops (On Tap 146)

Allo Hello peoples! I'm G. double O. D. GOOD! as Monday arises upon the horizon. 

Another entertaining weekend in the books for myself with a new week preparing itself to start and awaiting me to reach the starting gate. The weekend was very LOUD! with UVA vs VCU definitely turning up the bass at the Stu, to college football championship games going beyond 11 in the stands and lots of kicking and screaming on the soccer field at StubHub where Landon Donovan had a dream exit from MLS winning the MLS Cup to me scoring a hat-trick!

Probably need to invest in some Dre Beats.

Ahh...silence lol.

But yeah! Twas' a fun weekend indeed. Monday I know you have a hard act to follow but you're starting off well with an awesome parking space! It's the little things in life you know? Haha.

Gotta show some love for the little things; especially when those small gems have BIG value.

So today..and yes I'm aware it's Monday; no excuses!..show some love. 

It's Gonna Be A Great Day.

Believe That!

Lyrical Spiritual 44.

People call it a crime to say what's on a person's mind.

A super-computer constantly on mute with a terabyte hard-drive.

But when you pump up the volume, you get detained.

The world's patrolling on the next potential frame.

Speaking of the world, it's awesome minus the sarcasm.

We all want to get along but no one wants to take that first step.

You piss on me, I piss on you x2.

With people wondering why I have another funeral to attend to.

The potential is great for me and you.

To turn a world of chaos into a more peaceful wonderland.

Where no one gives a fuck, people are their own people.

Producing a kick-ass started from the bottom sequel.

Do I have all the answers? Well I have a smartphone...

Scrolling for a signal while devouring a chocolate cone.

Speaking of cones...lets swerve around 'em.

In order to finish on top, gotta do a better job.

People can be jealous. But really I could care less.

Talk is cheap and actions is my payment.

And I make it rain all over the pavement.

Forget all the rules, just listen and live in this moment.

Chaos is friendly-version of the world's description.

When you listen to the music, parental discretion is advised.

Do you have the power to create a remix?

Well get out there and start making the fix.

Cheers!

Humping Over 9000!

Allo Hello, Allo Hello! It's Hump Day Baby. So here's your chance to do the Hump!

Sexy Baby!

I mean...Whoop! Whoop!!

Oh boy I'm feeling the effects coming from yesterday's episode. It wasn't a bad day by no stretch of the imagination but I sure felt like Tuesday and I were getting physically with each other throughout the day. And it just went bent over backwards when I hit the soccer field. Literally.

Nothing too serious though...just a tweak here and a some turf burn there. Went 1-1 on the night on the field with my clubs but I got 5 dots on my FitBit so mission accomplished right? Haha. As an extra bonus, was able to watch VCU escape Illnois State with a close W on the road! GO RAMS!

Saturday is gonna be crazy in RVA. VCU v UVA at the Stu, the Christmas Parade, the gratuitous amount of pre-gaming, gaming and (hopefully) post-game celebrating...might as well call Saturday a holiday for the city.

But that's Saturday. Today is Wednesday aka Hump DaY! Whoop! Whoop!! And as much fun the weekend can hold, today surely you can have some fun right? Right??

Of course you can! Now get out there and start humping! 

I need to clean up this beard and hair before the humping shall commence.

Gotta look good while humping right? lol

Today shall reek of awesomeness!

The Daily: Do What You Want

Allo Hello lads, gents and ladies. It is Tuesday which means that mystical beast known as Monday has come and gone.

Hopefully you didn't get bit.

Today you have stuff you need to do such as get to work on time, do your daily duties around the office, etc. Now while all that's good, take some time to do what you want.

Wait...didn't you just say do what you need to do? I did but I'm referring to doing what you want when all your primary objectives are completed.

Take time today and do what you want. And whatever that want is...give it your 100%; Don't half-ass it. Whether it's a trip to the gym, playing that video game you've been "dying" to play, phone a friend for hanging out purposes, write a book, go exploring. There are literally thousands of things you can do in a positive outlook.

Do what you want and have a great Tuesday.

Today I'm gonna do what I want.

Believe That!

So Much Glitter...(On Tap 145)

Allo Hello Party People! Sound the alarm for Monday has arrived!

Whoop! Whoop!

Humping Came Early. Sorry Not Sorry.

Whew. When I say that my weekend was fun, that might be the understatement of the year. Started with a road trip up to the 757 to watch some VCU basketball. Unfortunately, VCU Basketball was not on display at the Ted which was very disappointing losing to our in-state little brother known as the Monarchs.

Still...Cherry Bombs, Sweet Baby Jesus and causing a ruckus with VCU students, alumnus and fans was a hell of a time that afternoon. The fun continued for myself that evening in the form of a b-day celebration for a friend of mine with a LOT of glitter, good people and laughs, hilarious Pole Dancing Basics 101 class taught by the Glamazon and "turned up" so much that the 5-0 showed up...three times.

Oh and Cards Against Humanity! Gotta have that in the mix of the entertainment and hilarity that night. Bonus Points for me playing the Raping Chair card at one of the most hilarious moments of the party. Lawd...I'm a terrible person lol.

And that was just SATURDAY...

Let's just say when Sunday arrived it was a Lazy Sunday for me to say the least. I was a complete bed potato watching YouTube for hours lol. Motivation was in the form of food and futbol later that evening which resulted in a 6-2 Win for the good guys! 

So yeah...my weekend was fabulous. Hoping yours was as well. Now let's get Monday started in all its fabulousness.

And if you need pick me up...just throw up some glitter. 

Glitter fixes everything haha.

It's Gonna Be A Fabulous Day.

Allo Hello on this new and improved Hump Day! Now with 25% more hump and 75% less creepiness!

Whoop! Whoop!!

This one is gonna be a short one...giggity...due to the aftermath of chanting, screaming and stomping with a splash of yelling at last night's VCU game. Needless to say...I'm a tad bit tired upon my alarm summoning me this morning.

Not yet in full game shape just yet lol.

And I get to do it all over again Thursday! Yeah I definitely need to recover all day, every day lol

Have A Good...scratch that...Great Hump Day people!

The biggest show in RVA is finally back! (Officially!) And yes...I'm too hype. Wait is that even possible? Nah... As an extra bonus, feeling pretty good after a cardio-packed night out on the soccer field and even got a decent amount of z's?

All I Do Is Win, Win, Win!

Haha. Anywho, have a great day peoples! And I'll see some of you at the Stu tonight!

Back Again Monday?? (On Tap 143)

Allo Hello Monday, Monday, Monday. Are you ready to do this?

Judging by the moaning, groaning and slowly arising out of bed this morning...not so much haha. A little too much fun over the weekend?

Wait...that's blasphemy. Forget I asked that.

Speaking of the weekend, it was an entertaining three days for myself. VCU won against Tennessee (Go RAMS!), headed down to the Richmond Marathon and cheered on some of the runners as they ran closer to the finish line and basically chilled while having some good fun.

Now for Monday. I'm blessed to see another one and for good health and use of my body. I could go on about all the blessings I've received this morning but that would take up my entire blog. Literally.

Let's Do It People. Where's your starting point? Right here? Now push yourself to be further down the course before the day is over.

And always remember...fuck the excuses and the drama. Live your life and have some fun while doing it.
