Ashley-izm
The effects of hanging around lazy Ashley for too long
Ashleyizm - the art of being extremely lazy after hanging around my best friend Ashley.
So me and my best friend Ashley are Yin and Yang. I’m extremely active and she is extremely lazy. Because we hang together so much our way’s often rub off on one another. In her case she catches “Joe-ism”, which comes from her being around me too much, but never in a million years did I think I’d catch her Ashleyizm.
One Friday evening we didn’t hang together because Ashley was very sick, so I thought about going out on the town, but something told me to just stay in for the night. Funny, staying in is Ashley liked to do on Fridays. After reading for a couple hours, which is also something Ashley loved doing, I decided I’d turn in for the night because I was sleepy. The only problem with this is it’s only eight o’ clock at night. That’s extremely too early for me, but guess who does enjoy going to sleep that early? Ashley does.
After that good nights rest I woke up the next day around 10a.m. Which was weird because I normally woke up around eight on Saturdays. It was a beautiful sunny day outside which on average meant I needed to go take a long walk and enjoy the sun, but for some reason all I wanted to do was stay in and rest all day. I couldn’t deny it any further, I caught a case of Ashleyizm.

Shaftized
Shaftized - A euphoric infatuation with the genre of Blaxploitation in film that develops after watching the film Shaft. I was Shaftized as a baby so I really don’t remember how it felt at first, but I do know how it has felt ever since. The story of the 1971 movie Shaft is centered around an African American private detective named John Shaft, portrayed by Richard Roundtree, who was hired by a New York gangster to rescue his daughter from the clutches of the Italian mafia. Along the way Shaft battles the relations of racial and social issues that plague the Black community.

Seeing from the other side
So, after getting some blood work done, I was told that I had traces of another human in my blood, which means it's a dead twin. This happens when a set of twins is in the same wound, and 1 twin dies during development and gets absorbed by the stronger twin as nutrients. Basically, resulting in the surviving baby as a chimera.

Lol, this was hilarious! Also, I relate so much to Ashley!
Loved this cute story. Your friend Ashley sounds awesome. A good book and a nights rest is the best. ❤️
"I love this story! It's so heartwarming and relatable. I'm so glad that you have a best friend who loves and accepts you for who you are, even when you're feeling lazy. And I'm also glad that you're able to laugh at yourself and your own laziness. It's important to be able to do that sometimes."
