Man Of Many Hats


Well my Birthday was this past Wednesday March 26th and another year went by, I thought that it would be a relatively quiet day since it was on hump day this week but I actually had a lunch date and then later that night I went to dinner with my girl April Watts. Well let me back track, on Tuesday night my homey and co-host of The T-Time Show (every Tuesday night at 7pm-9pm on www.im4radiodc.com)took me out after we got off air and we had dinner and drinks and on Wednesday April just finished off what was started on Tuesday...we were both tore up.

On Saturday the friends got together and we all went to Phillips on the DC Waterfront for a Seafood Brunch in celebration of my Birthday to all my family that came including April Watts, Annette Williams, Tyi Flood, Model Donna Swinson, Blogger Leon Scott of www.listentoleon.net, Velocity Magazine Photographers Sibohan Philemon and Robert Arnold, Actor Walter Jones, Director Malik Pollard and His Wife Trisha and their kids and Models Leo Cort and Fraz.

It was then that I realized how blessed I was to have such great and crazy people in my life. I also realized that I am the cause of a lot of people Alcohol addictions...lmao..I mean hell, if we at the bar; why not drink right? After being at the Buffet for over 5 hours and getting nasty looks from the patrons that were waiting to be seated we finally rolled out. My day didnt end though, I had to go be a supportive co-host to my co-hosts of The T-Time Show Tyi Flood who was hosting a Fashion Show that evening and Ms. Jahsie who was in the Fashion Show. After that was over, I had to segue into the supportive Editor of Velocity Magazine and friend as our Marketing and Sales Representaive Latonya Adams was having her Birthday Party across town at that time..my head was pounding and I was starting to feel those drinks. I showed up and Latonya was three shades in the wind..I love her, truth be told thats also my drinking partner..so I did my thing at her party for a while and I was asked "hey I know you, what dont you do?" and I had to think about it for a while and I thought to myself, damn I wear a lot of hats and here they are:

- Publisher, Editor, Owner and Contributing Writer of Velocity Magazine
- Actor
- Film Producer / Writer
- Radio Co-Host
- TV Show Correspondent Whats Hot Watts (Coming Soon to D.C.)
- TV Show Host for my upcoming entertainment program (T.B.A.) in the fall (Coming to Maryland and D.C.)

I need a damn vacation, but I wouldn't have it any other way, cause trust me when I say...my day is coming and its going to be worth all of the hard work!
