How Unsure Becomes Amazing

| November 21, 2010

There was something about my post about Matt this year that just did not sit well with me. I just could not put what I was feeling into words. Because of that, I kept thinking about Matt probably more than usual, and I already think about him a lot. My thoughts brought me back to [...]

Between Friends

| October 13, 2010

I think that it is safe to call a person a friend when you spend practically all week literally side by side at work with a person and you still want to hang out with them on the weekend. I remember that Matt and I spent many, many a weekend together playing video games. It [...]

Detroit Jazz Festival 2010

| September 6, 2010

I had not been to any festivals downtown Detroit at all this year. I wanted to go, but I just never got around to making any of them. I did not want to miss the Detroit Jazz Fest, though, especially since Branford Marsalis was going to be there. I try to catch him whenever he [...]

Farewell, Ms. Spencer

| May 22, 2010

I previously mentioned that my niece is graduating from high school this year. With the coming of the end of the school year, there are a host of ceremonies and banquets that students like my niece get to attend in honor of their achievements. In the past week and a half, my niece has attended [...]

Two Years and Counting…

| October 13, 2009

…and the sting is no less. Today would have been Matthew Edward Scheer‘s 31st birthday, but he decided that he did not want to be around for it. Earlier this month, I watched Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby, again. The first time that I saw the movie was with Matt when it came [...]

Happy 30th, Shayna

| August 1, 2009

Today is my friend’s actual birthday. According to her aunt, life is just now starting for her. So, I guess life just started for me three years ago. Why do I still not feel like I have not gotten anywhere. I guess that I am getting off track… Happy Birthday, Shayna!!!

Me, Shayna, Jazmine, and Robin at Chene Park

| July 31, 2009

To help celebrate my friend Shayna’s birthday, I bought tickets to go see Robin Thicke at Chene Park in Detroit. This was my second time seeing Robin Thicke. The first time I saw him was when he opened for John Legend at the State Theater a couple of years ago. That concert also featured Consequence, who [...]

A Candle for Matt…Happy Birthday, Friend

| October 14, 2008

I did not get a chance to do this yesterday, but better late than never, right… It has been almost a year since my dear friend Matthew Edward Scheer decided that he had had enough and left us. It was October 16th, 2007, but It still feels like it was yesterday. I still think about [...]

Happy Birthday, Shayna!

| August 1, 2008

  HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SHAYNA! Today is a phenomenal woman’s birthday. If you know her, then please give her a call or email to say hello and happy birthday. I know that she wanted to come home for her birthday, but I do not think that she was able to do so. Either way, I know [...]
