Best wishes

Congratulations Erin, on your new direction.  I hope you find peace, happiness, and security.  Farewell.

I don't think I'm anyone special, folks.  I don't think that I am a good man.  Perhaps if I had money, I would be a better person.  I think I would at least be married.  Or maybe I would be the same no matter what.  God knows me better than I know myself.  I seem to have a little knowledge of the Qur'an, alhamdulillah.  So let me tell you this, Ladies: whatever path you choose to take, don't think that magic can overcome God.  The Qur'an is more powerful than any book of magic.

Natty, please don't hanker after other people's gigs, especially the ones made for rookie models.  You won't enjoy it.  You're above that, so please try to step up. 

Whip me, Houston!

Erin, is that you?  Wow, you look fucking awesome!  I must say that you have such beautiful armpits, my darling.  And I absolutely love your new face.  So much intensity.  I do hope that face is all aura, and no surgery.  You look wonderful, my love.  I love you.

I don't normally share my dreams in this public place, but this was so much fun, I have to talk about it!  I was standing with the crowd in a basement, watching TV.  We were watching Whitney Houston's debut on the Merv Griffin show, where she sang "Home".   Someone behind me started to sing along, I turned around to see who it was, and it was Whitney herself!  Whitney from 1985, she looked beautiful and radiant, and she was wearing a silver sparkly gown.  She sang and totally blew away the singer on TV (herself).  I stopped watching the TV and stared at her and said, "That was fucking awesome!  Your debut was great, but what you just did was incredible!"  She grinned at me, and then started to chat with me.  She talked and talked to me, saying you should do this you should do that bla bla bla, she talked so much I had to walk away.  Forget it, lady!  I have too much to do as it is!

Changing the light

Hi there, my gorgeous Ladies!  How's it going?  How are you feeling?  Oh, those emotions are still strong, huh?  Oh dear.  Please be patient, and try to keep calm.  You will get by this phase just fine inshaAllah.  I just changed the light in the cage where I keep my motorcycle.  It's one of those old flourescent tubes.  Nowadays they sell only LED tubes around here, so I had to rewire.  But even that isn't necessary.  All you have to do is bypass the starter.

Anyway, I haven't had dinner yet.  I finally got around to cutting the grass.  Not that I want to cut the grass, but nobody will do it for me for free.  Then I had to change that light.  As that guess, it's already dark.  So I have to go cook dinner now.  Nothing fancy, just pita bread and curry.  Lots of bread.  I just made a fresh batch of dough yesterday.  Bye!  I love you!

Hello

there, my lovely Ladies!  How's it going today?  Are you having lots of fun?  Are you keeping your cool?  Well, you might as well express yourself.  It's another average day over here for me.  I tried to cut the grass, I was all ready and dressed and the weed whacker was all set to go, when it started to pour.  So I said, "Forget it!" and started cooking my dinner instead.  Chicken wings!  Every other chicken is chicken wings.  I love hot wings!  Do you?  You must love hot wings if you like football.  It's a rule.  Pizza would have made it perfect, but I'm not budgeted for pizza.  Anyway, I'm off to the mosque now.  Take care!  Try to relax!

Hi Erin

How are those raging emotions today?  Still on a rampage?  It's just a phase, Honey.  I think it's on its last legs, and soon you will be back to your easy going self again.  Sometimes I wish I didn't have any emotions, but we need our emotions, especially us.  We need them so we can work.  Don't worry Honey, everything will be just fine InshaAllah.

Want some dinner?  I cooked up a couple of pita breads, then I pan fried a chicken breast with salt, pepper and butter.  Simplicity!  I also heated up my extra thick curry and added chunks of tofu in it.  Here, let me spoon feed you a chunk of tofu swimming in hot curry.  Do you like it?

Wow, Natty

Just wow.

What, no kiss?

Ah, Nashville

I've never been there.  But I'm glad you get to explore there, Natty my darling.  But what you need is a flashy pair of cowboy boots!  Something with a lot of rhinestones on it.  I did hear about Nashville wanting to be a sort of fashion center, but it's hard to imagine anything fashionable from there outside of the Country and Western scene.  It's not a geographical bias, either.  It's a case of where the music is the dominating or domineering influence.  I'm sure there are many types of music out of Nashville, but I wouldn't go there to seek eclectic fashion.  I would however, go there for a pair of cowboy boots.  I do recall a fashion event in Nashville... oh, it was the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue meet and greet event!  That seemed like a marathon effort for anyone who had to work in it.  I'm not surprised I haven't heard of it since.

But oh Natty!  You must be attracting a lot of musicians!  Among other guys.  You're beautiful.  Mwah!  I'm independent of the trappings of a traditional music career.  I am however, trapped in my own routine.  At least Allah has set it up that I get to focus on home and family.  Alhamdulillah.  I don't have to tour!  I'm too lazy to tour.
