Last Friday was March 9th, and we all know what that means...

it means that we undoubtedly all spent the day in quiet remembrance and celebration of the life of Christopher Wallace AKA Biggie Smalls, the rapper from the south Bronx who was tragically murdered on march 9th in 1997....yeah right. It means that our dad/husband/self (depending on who is reading this) finally turned 50, and as is the custom here in America, the last-born son put on a rap show for his father. Possibly the funnest (and most fun) show I've ever done. Wish I could've stayed longer......
Pops- happy birthday man. I hope you had as much fun as I did. I love you.
Mom- the groceries are incredible, you're a peach. I love you
Elly- you and I are conversing via text message as I write this about my bumbling of the domain-name purchase. You JUST texted me: "Yeah. Without it, you have no webpage, just a domain name." I'm about to tell you to go ahead and upgrade. I love you.
Cody- It was great to talk to you the other night. I hate it that cell phone convos can be awkward sometimes. I really want to come out and visit you soon. Johnny has a friend that works at Rhymesayers (Atmosphere's label in Minny), one of like 8 paid employees that the company has. If nothing else, that's an excuse to come out there, right? I love you.

Getting on here almost always brings tears into my eyes. I just wish that we could all be together all the time. Everyone is doing great things though....why the hell is speedskating outlawed on the durango rink? That's messed up mom, you should just ignore that rule. Vegas sounded like a good time code. I'm going there on the 25th, but only for a night or two to help skep move. Regardless, I'm excited! I hope the casinos didn't clean you out too bad, because my birthday is this month and you owe me a few years' worth of presents if I remember right (by the way, I'll get you those presents I owe you this year too, don't worry). I'm exhausted from bursting into tears around the beginning of this paragraph. I didn't even know it was MS week. I miss you all.
