Everything’s Naygii New Direction- The Interview!

A quick short dialogue with my good “friend” Iola B. actually, he goes by, Iola B. Nigga Fag, but why be formal. When I told he I was going to relaunch Everything’s Naygii, Iola had a few questions. And it went a lil sumthing like this…

(Iola B.)Nigga, you ain’t wrote shit in like 7 or 8 months, why you dusting off this moldy ass blog?
Greatly personal reasons. This blog will function more as a daily dairy or journal. Why make it publish- am I just an attention whore! Hmmmm, Tila Tequila, I’m not. I believe I am making this a public journal/dairy simply to give the act of maintaining it more importance. There’s definitely more involved in the maintenance and upkeep of a blog. Rather than occasional journaling, I’m challenging myself to maintain and “operate” a public blog. Not only am I challenging (or inviting myself) to be accountable, but I’m also I’m faced with facing my thoughts/ I’m faced with a creation that I’ve (hopefully) kept for a year. A public endeavor is not something that I can simply walk away from so easily. Unlike a personal and private journal, I can file it away on the computer and never looking back on. Again, a blog is a creation that takes becomes a character of its own. I’m a bit fascinated with creating and observing Everything’s Naygii’s development. Which as extension, would give me a chance to observe my own development throughout 2010.

So, really you’re just vain and stuck on yourself?
Perhaps. Some would say that I am.

I would be one of “some” who would say so.
You got jokes!

Anyways, Again, what makes you different than some sort of media/attention whore?
Well, I’m definitely not seeking fame nor recognition. Actually this leads to another point. This blog is a daily journal/dairy primarily for me. That I’ve chosen to make it public means that it’s elevated beyond a personal venture. However, I am not attempting to create an “Online Community” I’m not trying to have a million/billion followers or friends. I’m not trying make friends at all- I actually have friends! Lol. And my friends will, no doubt, be “introduced” throughout the year. I’m not attempting to create a self-help/Oprah.com experience. If folks choose to follow Everything’s Naygii- Great. people are more than welcomed to follow the hot mess that is my life. However, I’m not asking for help nor commentary regarding my life. However, if folks choose to comment- great, however note- I AM NOT LOOKING TO ESTABLISH A DIALOGUE, FRIENDSHIP, OR “COMMUNITY” OF ANY KIND WITH ANYONE. If folks choose to follow this blog and if what I post and share regarding my “so called life” sparks debate, interest, conflict, confusion, controversy- y’all feel free to share but I’m not here to engage in dialogue. I’m simply here to create a kind of “year in the life” blog experience for myself and some of my friends. Look at it this way, for those of you familiar with the old Mystery Science Theater 3000 B movie cable program. As the aliens of this cult cable series watched B-movies every week and sat in the “audience” and committed on the movies being shown, feel free to comment, strike up dialogue, and discussions- however, I’m not here to participate. The blog is simply the “B-movie” called my life! LMAO!

Nigga, is you gon hire an editor? You call yourself a Grad student and you’re just gon let your shit roll like that?! Without proof reading, no editing and shit?!
No editor, nor editing! LOL. I’m okay with it. I’m going to keep it raw. I’ll let it roll out as is, in its rough draft form. I ain’t tryin at get an A, I just wanna Pass, for now.

Bitch, you got issues!
Exactly! LOL! To quote Jeremy Irons as Claus Von Bulow, in the movie Reversal of Fortune, “You have no idea!” but as the year progresses, those following my hot mess of a blog and life, will have a better idea!

So what can peeps expect?
Anything and everything. My interests are broad, my humor tends to be dry, random, and ironic. I am co-dependent, attracted to/cling to toxic relationships, and prone to running anxiety. You may get anything and everything a Jack Macfarlane rant, I may have a Malcolm X moment and stand atop my soap box, a Woody Allen anxiety/panic attack, a classic In Living Color- Men’s On Film review, Hated it!, deep spiritual Marianne Williamson/Oprah posts, Hell even Chrisy Snow ditzy may be the order of some days- who knows!? Y’all may even get some James Baldwin and Niki Giovanni!

Malcolm, Chrissy Snow- I can’t wait for those moments. The Oprah/Marianne shit I get all the damn time! LOL!
Anyways, Folks, may love and/or despise me. To be honest, I don’t really care. The point of the blog is personal. It’s about me, started a commitment and maintaining that commitment, at the end of the year- this year, the goal isn’t necessarily about whether I’ve changed or grown, whether folks (the online community) come to like, love, respect, hate or loath me, my public accountability revolves around, whether or not I’ve maintained the blog for an entire year- this is the challenge that I’m actually making public. Can I maintain a daily blog, for 2010? The shape, direct, focus, personality, and character of the blog will develop throughout 2010.

So basically that’s the new Everything’s Naygii, and everything I have to post on that. Yo, Iola B., Thanks for asking.

Anytime, my Nigga!
