The Emperors New hustle

Actually, I have no hustle, to tell the truth I’m not even an Emperor*, I just thought the title sounded cool.

I’ve been off the alcohol for a total of 5 nights now, the weekend was particularly hard. I had to assure some of the local neighborhood bars and liquor stores, that it’s only a temporary thing, while I take some Detox tablets, to get rid of all the toxins in my body. I had to assure them that this is being done to make room for all the toxins and unhealthy stuff I am going to fill myself up with this summer.

This non-alcohol thing is really hard. I mean mornings are that much easier to deal with, but the nights are just awful.

I really feel like having a drink ryt now, but I can’t. Had a frustrating day at work, The Knicks lost (again), I lost my headset, and some person who shall remain nameless (Pinky) makes fun of me on my instant messenger when I am not at home!

I don't know how many more nights of this soberness I can take, my whole world is falling apart. I saw Star Wars Episode 1 sober for the first time, and I have come to the sad conclusion that not only is it not a classic, but one of the most pathetic movies I have ever seen. Now I will never be able to take Jar-Jar Binks or George Lucas seriously, ever again!

sleep..............

I can’t sleep.

I have been thinking about titles, forget being a hall monitor, I am thinking about making my own cards that say “Tung…..Controller of Planet Earth”.

I was a part of a study group earlier. I was repping my company, In a Microsoft sponsored windows item. I mean I know how to talk, I know how to say things…. I know how to look good, and say the right words when talking in public.

The whole thing was intimidating at the start, big glass mirror (with people looking from the other side) a million cameras, and microphones everywhere. Then they made us sign sumn that says everything we said or did will be owned by Microsoft and can be used however, they see fit.

Which was kinda scary for me. I went to the National High schools quiz In Zimbabwe once. So during taping sitting next to a friend, we would try answer the questions asked. Friendly competition between my boy and me. So every time I got a question right, that my boy got wrong, I would do a lil dance while sitting down. The People at zbc caught me on camera. So when airing that episode of the National High schools Quiz, everytime my school got a question correct they would show me doing my lil dance.

I was in boarding school so I didn’t see the airing, but every1 was laughing at me at breaktime, the day after it aired. I distinctly remember my brother disowning me when I got home, the weekend after it aired.

Moving on, after the focus group, The people who where behind the glass mirrors came out to meet us. One of the girls, who I thought was really nice/pretty, pulled out her card and gave it to me (and not any1 else!!) hers said Microsoft Product Manager, I gave her mine (which just says Retail Sales), I jus felt kinda low after the card exchange.

Now I am not sure if I should take over the world first so that I can have a card that says ruler of the earth, or just make one now that says “Future Ruler of Earth”

Talk the talk

I sure as hell hope it snows tmrw.

Weather report says it won’t; I have been up to my usual antics, talking crap.

My newly found growing Legendicity, myt be lost.
Either that or I am cultivating the wrong kind of rep*.....

In my hey day, I was that dude that would be dribbling at the top of the key and ask the guy marking me, which way u want me to drive? Left, right or through the center? Then in a dubbed Chinese accent id say.... "Well now! U have dared to mark me???", “You think I come to a basketball court, in the middle of the hood, and not knw what is going on, I f#$^&ng represent**!” Then drive in whatever direction dude dared me to go.

I enjoy that, it makes the game that much more intense, more fun. The only problem is that nowadays I can barely bounce the ball!

A date has been set for tmrw, money has been put on the game. People from work are coming to watch.

Part of me thinks I can take this guy. He is taller than I am, bigger than I am, and recently started working out.

In preparation........ Actually, I don’t knw what I am going to do.

I hope the underwear is gna smell really bad tmrw. I'm kinda happy it glows green in the dark***.




* Much like hw I am doing with this blog
** Think skit from Fugees album the score
*** Why am I still single?

The legendicity.....

I’ve been meaning to blog for a minute but I've been distracted working on my legendicity*.

Some work on their sexy, me I’m all about the legendecity!

I work in the hood, which is a semi-big shopping/party district. Naturally, I go to a lot of the bars in the neighborhood**.

So as a group, we went to a local bar after work. Between Peoples usual screaming of Tuuuunga Tuunga Tuunga, every time I said sumn, and the appearance of an ex /xfile and all her cute girl friends. The Urban Legend Stamp got that much closer to being official.
Both at work and at the local watering holes.

A couple of things I learnt:

Attempting to break dance and doing the running man at a work get together is not a good idea! It will get u free drinks but it gives them that much more ammunition the next day.

When U hang with Ur boss at night, and he leaves before u. You can’t just give the age-old excuse of “problems at home” for ur lateness.

Avoid friends that drive without shovels in their cars when it is snowing, because they will ask u to help push their cars out of the snow, at 4 am in the morning.






* Don't look for the word in the dictionary, the Tung's urban Legend is growing at such an amazing exponential rate, that new words are being created to cater for the growing legend.
