    I’m a racist

    February 8th, 2004 by elenamary

    So here is the deal, I am a racist. Katie told me today that I use the word Oreo and Coconut too much…she is totally right. So, I am not going to use it again for the next year. Mark my word. I’ve also decided that I am not going to bring up race identity issues with anyone I am more than just friends with. It must be frustrating, to have some off white girl, questioning you about race…so it shall end.
    I’ve also realized that not everyone is going to see my friends as awesome as they are…which I should’ve realized from reading Urban Tribes. Anyway, I do have wonderful friends, whom have been calling me all day to check and see how I am doing. I am very lucky.

    BOMBO

    Can I say I do miss Bombo a lot. Last time I saw him, which was september, he told me about the first time he realized he liked me. We were at Sabotage where a Beatles cover band was preforming. He said that I was singing along, and dancing and looked so happy. He wondered if I was drunk and then realized I didn’t drink alcohol. He wondered if I was high on coke, and then found out I didn’t use drugs. “You were so full of life, so excited, it was beautiful…” he said to me. I melted. He wasn’t saying these things to hit on me, he was just remembering the wonderful times we had together. I miss that, I want the next person I date to be that into me, to think that I am just so amazing, and so full of life. I miss Bombo not just becaue he thought those things of me, but because he too was full of life.
    eh.

      yeah..i know all about it. i was watching the democratic primaries come in w/ a “friend” and she referred to carol mosley braun as a “race-baiting bitch.” i can only assume that this powerful black women had the audacity to talk about race in america.
