Will You …
bear with me as I get myself re-situated? Life has been very hectic the past few months. So much going on, so little time to blog.
Since April 15th, I’ve moved, traveled to Jamaica for a co-worker’s wedding, come to grips with the fact that my uncle has pancreatic cancer, helped my cousins calm down as my aunt was also placed in the hospital for anxiety attacks due to my uncle’s illness, dealt with various immediate family issues (read: sister and mom), dealt with a stalker, gotten married (sike! just wanted to make sure you were paying attention … LOL), written various articles and columns, and oh yeah … along with two of my colleagues, put together a conference which hosted over 500 participants, including more than 90 of the brightest and best students from this nation’s HBCUs (huge shout out to my “kids” from HAMPTON UNIVERSITY!!!! You guys make me sooo damn proud!).
So yes, it’s been extremely hectic. Shout out to the Hilton in Walt Disney World. They took good care of me (although I don’t need to see Orlando again any.time.soon. Oy.)
However, allllll is good. I’m still standing. I’m still strong. (Which is more than I can say for Antonio Tarver … What the hell was that?!?!?!? Punk ass.) LOL
As I regroup, how about we do this? If you choose to, ask me some things you’ve always wanted to know about me. (Trust me, if there’s none, I WON’T be upset … lol) I promise to answer as truthfully and honestly as possible (and reserve the right to refuse if it’s TOO personal). I look forward to the interaction. It’s been a while.
Seriously, reading your blogs will prove to be some therapy for me as I wind down this week. Your adventures will definitely help me get back “in my write mind.”
Respect …
Wait…dealt with a stalker? That is a post in itself! Sorry to hear about your family troubles. Troubles don’t seem to be in short supply these days.

You sound like the old folks when they say, “I’ve made it through!” A lot has happened in such a short period of time, but you’re still here and that’s all that matters.

I’m just glad you’re back on the scene. You’ve been missed.

How did you deal with the stalker? Glad to see you are back and doing ok.

Where did you move to and what’s this about a stalker?

Yay for the return of Will!!!! Glad you survived. You come from good stock and surviving is mostly what we do. Take care and wind down…
So here’s a question for you. How about you FINALLY give us the answers for the 2 truths and a one lies you’ve thrown out? Just a thought…

yeah uh, tarver was embarrassed the other night - straight comedy!
i got a question - when will you be coming back to visit the heat?

Totally understandable that you need time to regroup. I think you know that we’ll always be here! Glad that you “dealt” with your stalker, congrats on the conference, and - most importantly - you and your family are in my prayers!

Will I thank you for your support. From one writer to another, it truly means a lot.

Do you think that it is you alone who helps you to get in your right mind?
Who do you depend on or turn to first when things fall apart?
