My name is Cruz. It is not my last name. Instead, it’s part of
my first name. No hyphens, no spaces, no in-between capital letters. I am Black
& Hispanic. I’m often only referred to as one or the other, rarely both. Black
people think I am the most “Spanish” thing since maracas, while Hispanics
wonder WTF am I doing smoking their hookah (I don’t smoke hookah). Fuck them
both. I am an Athenian goddess, and nevertheless, a cuntworth queen.
I am new to the blogging world. I’ve spent most of my life
speaking my sermons that it has never occurred to me to record any of it in
writing. And then I thought of one of my favorite philosophers, Socrates, and
how he never recorded any of his works. Instead, Plato wrote them because he
admired Socrates. But the btch that killed Selena admired her once too, so I
find it best to record my own work. That, and I’m scared to die. I enjoy
writing in lowercase letters, so this is the only time you will probably read my
words case-appropriate.
The initiation of this blog is a product of my inspiration of my
fellow “The Chatroom” bookclubees Tassika (virginfingertips.blogspot.com) &
Sioban (randomepiphanys.blogspot.com), two lovely ladies that I’ve known from a
distance for quite sometime and am getting to know more & more by each post. I’ve always had
it on my TDL list to blog, but I didn’t always have the motivation that I
received from Tass & Sio, so this is a new chapter of my life, just as I
know they are continuously writing theirs. I want to thank them for welcoming
me (well idk if I’m welcomed, cus I aint even tell these btchs – SURPRISE!
*cheeses*) into the world of keyboards & hope they enjoy my work as much as
I enjoy theirs.
Until next time.
Oh yeah. And welcome to my house. Feet off the couch.
Ocho <3
