I went out last week...so you know I gots something to say..hahahha

Hey its Monday again...shat, time is flying.  This weeks chatter will be mainly about social scene (at least in this city I call home).  Due to the playoff hault b/c of preparations for the finals there wasn't much else hatneing (translation-happening). 

Ok, so last week was at best dull until Friday and Saturday, where shall I start?  Ok ok so some of my NFL bros came home (I sure hope it was for memorial weekend and not because they wanted to) and of course when you have been exposed to the "LIFE" coming back to Columbia better yet anywhere but Charleston (biased opinion but there is more to do) for a weekend is a bit of a let down - I digress- So my homie calls me Friday and is wondering whats going on and I told him of the only thing I knew of so I said I'm game and yes I drove cross town to check out the scene and lets just say I've seen more cars in a Dollar Store parking lot at 23:00 (think about what I just said)...so we decide to scavenge the town to see if there is any life remotely moving and needless to say we ended up back Uptown (Northeast side) at the place from a previous post I said was trippin...so I gets there and the crowd is respectable compared to where I just left and I get there and these fools charging and I was looking like BWAHAHAHAHAHA (I'm not above paying but geesh If I can see to the back that's not good) but my homie came and got me so needless to say It was a bit chilly inside *DENOTE - If you can feel the A/C in a club that is not a good thing* so anyway we sat down and tried to make it as ballerific as possible a bottle and a place to sit...I saw full sequin jumpers and quite a bit of + sizes in little outfits with little shoes (I think +'s are just at beautiful as any other size no discrimination).  Now, I'm not talking bad about +'s I'm just saying make it work for you PLEASE the same +'s that despise petites are the same ones that attempt to look like petites I'm just saying.   I know plenty of +'s that I think are absolutely beautiful and they embrace themselves and make it work.  Ok enough enough before somebody takes it the wrong way (even tho I have clearly stated my opinion).  Now moving on to day two....I had an opportunity to celebrate one of my good friends and former teammates post wedding celebration in which I can say I had a blast (No7 was on tilt hahahahah y'all who know me know what that means), then later on that night (late late and I don't get out much) my homies buzzed me up yet again, mind now I'm a married guy with two kids (translation - I don get out much; not that there is anything to do anyway) but I don't kick it often with my bros unless its the summer so I'm cool with that.  So we go by the same establishments as the previous night and needless to say it was worst than the night before...so some of my other homies called as well and I end up kicking it with them til the wee hours and they are young single fellas with not a care in the world which I appreciated the atmosphere but we all were looking around like man this place SUCKS lol.  I felt bad because I know me and my team have plans to make some things happen it is just taking some time.  I feel like this Capital City could do soooooo much better in the social scene category but that's for another discussion. 

In other news which I have talked about before but I find humorous  AMAZON is coming hahahaha the tax breaks and stuff got worked out but some provisions are in place which I think make sense and I understand the issues of why we didn't want them to come but the economy here is terrible and therefore we need jobs and we need more people spending more money.  See the catch 22 about this recession is people have to spend money to get "things" turned back around however people don't have money to discretionarily (made up word) spend so now what?  I feel like if there was a social scene here with all the military and other implants they would be out on the town spending and at least providing something to this place...*exiting soapbox*.

In conclusion this past weekend was a waist to a certain degree other than catching up with friends...I have unfortunately fortunately been around the social scene since the age of 13 (clubs, parties, behind operations etc) and I know a few things that would work but I know my bros don't have much faith in the people.  I have had trouble understanding this paradox that the people here want to be big city but have yet to be exposed and feel willing to pay for big city atmosphere hence they go to ATL or QC to enjoy themselves paying double/triple to enjoy themselves rather than indulge this city.  I completely understand the rationale on both sides but hey I'm just one person that has a vision.  Whelp I guess it will happen one day.....See its possible tho (closing statement) Those who recall the Memorial weekend party my team and I thru 4 years ago was a smash hit...  So I kinda know what I'm talking about so we will see what the future holds,  I had more to say but I will finish up next week....


Until...
