Quality

So today I went out with some friends.  This was a mixed group consisting of friends I've had for over a decade and friends I've had for a few months. When I talked about my life as it is now one thing I noticed between both groups.... no judgement. At least not to my face. I'd like to think that the friends that I have would at least say to my face when they were judging me. Even so, looking at my friends after sharing my story, I was even more confident that I have chosen the best folks to be in my life. In the end tonight solidified that quality over quantity is what matters. And boy am I thankful for that. Until next post . Laters

Unite & Conquer

So a couple of years ago, Atlanta got a football(soccer) team. I was pretty excited. Growing up in the Washington DC area, DC United was pretty much our only consistenly good winning team. Couple that with my Caribbean heritage and I've always sort of enjoyed the sport. I never really overly invested though. That changed when the announcement was made about Atlanta United. I'm not sure why it happened, probably something to do with the Atlanta Thrashers (NHL Hockey) leaving and having a sense of lost when that happened. Nonetheless when tickets went on sale for the first AU game I was there. Several games and 2 stadiums later I had become a full fledged member of the "Footie Mob"(still learning the chants tbh but hey got to start somewhere). Flash forward 2 years and me having a stint in the UK (Go LCFC!) I got back to Atlanta just in time to see my Atlanta United win the MLS Cup. Oh boy what a run it has been. I'm so proud of the expansion team that could! On Mon...

Here we go again!

Another holiday season is upon us! Another time were I am torn about how much I spend versus how much I save. Bah humbug. Alas hopefully I will have several epiphanies before December 14th.
