#NaptownSlim got the key(s)…
Man, life be happening, dawg. Just how I feel and what I’m thinking about…thangs be happening that remind me of bigger thangs. Sometimes, I gotta speak on it cuz I treasure what’s real. Thus, Slim gon tell it…
Somehow, my keys came up missing at work today. I know damn well where I put them and damn well where I expected them to be when my shift was over. They weren’t there.
I ran through all the scenarios, retraced my steps, went through all my stuff…nothing. It makes no logical sense because I was in the studio the whole time…there weren’t even that many steps to retrace. All I can figure out is someone picked them up without noticing they were mine.
I did everything I could, including call and text the person I think may have accidentally grabbed them, who was in the middle of doing something else, so they weren’t able to answer. I wasn’t about to leave my truck at work and ride the bus home. I needed an immediate solution and I needed help making it happen.
The only solution was to call Muhbabay and see if she could run the spare keys to me. She’s at work. I hate to have to do this, I like to be able to handle my thangs myself, but I was literally handcuffed AND stranded. I exhausted all my options and couldn’t even verify if there was gonna be a chance of me getting my keys back. For all I knew at this point, they just disappeared…
I called her…
She didn’t complain, she didn’t fuss…she made it happen as soon as she could. I would do the same for her. Any time, any place, whatever she needed…
You ain’t gotta say ‘I love you’ all the time to know it’s real.
When someone loves you, they’ll do whatever they can to help you when you need it. If they can’t, there better be a damn good reason. If they don’t want to, they don’t love you.
Slim gon tell it. Another funky Naptown Slim production, cold-blooded from a really warm heart. #ATFU
(Post-script…just got off the phone with the person I thought accidentally picked up my keys and it turns out, YUP…THEY GOTS EM. It wasn’t the gremlins or the #LOOMANOTTY, just an honest mistake…
*clips spare keys to belt*
Y’all be cool…)
