Monday Morning Musings

Right after I had Miles, Matt Wright from Elemental (um, where did they go?) told me he was excited for me because it seems that after dudes had a kid good things always came.  After some super QT with Boogie and The Bea I have realized why we often see this phenomenon. Here are few theories

 

1. People who are normally full of sh*t get the metaphysical kick in the pants. No time for Playstation and blunts with a crying baby in your arms
2. The inspiration those little rug rats give you is the best motivator in the world
3. Having a kid means you are a real grown-up. No take-backs
4. Necessity becomes the mother of invention.  Baby can eat excuses (this is sort of 1a)
5. People who you never thought would help you out, financially or otherwise, come out of the woodwork and give you the means to move forward
6. Babies are a blessing that make the world a better place. Plain and simple

 

 

In other news, Swifty likes:

• Flight of the Conchords. Those dudes are mad funny. “Time to get down to Business”
• Entourage – I hope E gets a chance to serve Walsh properly
• NCAA ’08 tomorrow. I am such a nerd I put down a deposit
• Making The Band 4. Outside of the reality show mental junk food I thought it was good that they are making the big dude work out.  Obesity in our community is a full blown epidemic. Physical fitness is one good by product of this programming
• Knicks Summer League games
• HBO on Demand. When Boogie had a tummy ache on Sat, Episode V on demand help cure his woes
• Big Love – got all caught up this weekend
• Habana Outpost on Fulton. Frozen Mojitos in a kid friendly spot
• Dune

 

Swifty doesn’t like:

·         Fort Greene hipsters in costume

·         People who were in your wedding and now front like they don’t see you

·         People still beating you in the head about how busy they are after 10 years of double talk

·         Humidity

·         The Orient Temple and their loud parties

·         Jaded wannabe hipsters who make fun of the crowd they so desperately want to be a part of

 

Enjoy your week
