Tonight, I went out with my little valentine, Emily. We went to the Outback with her mom, Stephanie and then went back to their apartment and played on her Wii. I was a Wii virgin until today and I must say I did rather good. We played “Carnival Games”, and I popped two balloons in the dart game and got 4 rings on the bottles. If I could only actually do that at a real life carnival? Those things are impossible!! Mitzie is getting adjusted to her new home and actually has made friends with Stephanie’s cat Diesel. Emily is doing great too, she got Valentines from all the kids in her new class and has been getting along with her little sister. Me, I’m not doing so good.
It’s Valentines Day and “Dead and Gone” by T.I. and Justin Timberlake is on. Perfect. Valentine’s Day sucks when you are single, but it REALLY sucks when your soul mate has just passed away. I went through almost the whole day without crying, but caved in the last 2 hours. I miss my best friend. I talked about Harry today a lot. Everything reminds me of him. We ordered Kookabura wings at the Outback cause they were Harry’s favorite. Yesterday I watched that new Rob Dyrdek show, “Fantasy Factory”, thinking Harry would have loved this! He watched every Rob & Big episode much more than once. I always told him the theme song in the beginning reminded me of him. I would sing along whenever it was on TV and I always changed the lyrics in the second verse to mang instead of man, since Harry and I called each other mang all the time. I believe it started the day we watched that Terrence Howard movie, “Hustle and Flow”. “What’s up, mang?”
The theme song from Rob & Big pretty much sums up Harry to me:
People let me tell you ’bout my best friend,
He’s a warm-hearted person who’ll love me till the end.
People let me tell you ‘bout my best friend,
He’s a one boy cuddly toy, my up, my down, my pride and joy.
People let me tell you ’bout him he’s so much fun
Whether we’re talkin’ mang to mang or whether we’re talking son to son.
Cause he’s my best friend.
Yes he’s my best friend.
Harry was my up, my down, my pride and joy. Harry was a fun warm-hearted person who loved me to the end. He was my entire life and is terribly missed by everyone. Rest in Peace Mang. You will forever be my boobalabebele.
