It was my Birthday party, and I will cry when I want to

On the 7th of July, It was indeed my Birthday. I have been on this lonely planet now, for approximately just over one year and have unfortunately, not relished every moment or opportunity that has presented itself my way. Indeed, I love mummy, Climber and to some extent even the "foreigners" in my home- Steffu and Ginger "W".

To encapsulate the momentous occasion of my "big first"- indeed I am around twenty-four in feline years, I am going to show you a landmark in Bombonation. To begin with we will discuss the origins of my name. Bombo.

 This drum is called- ironically- a "Bombo" drum. I believe it was named after my being, and it originates from Argentina. So, a shout out to all of my followers in Latin America. This drum represents my artistic vision, and indeed raw passion. I am a very passionate cat, enthralled in lethargy. If I could indeed fester enough energy to move, laugh or love, my actions would sound like this beating drum.

This is a musical written by one of my favourite Englishmen Mr Harold Atteridge. Produced and directed on Broadway in 1921, it was somewhat of an ode to the black Al Jolson- like me. It ran for 219 shows. I must stop for a moment, Winston is growling..... 16:24 (I am away and I will return ASAP)

16:59... and was ever so popular amongst all walks of life. I myself dabbled in "Catz"- my musical- and enjoyed every minute of the the production. It was immense, It never hit broadway though, but there is always time.

Bombo is also a town in Uganda. It has a population of 21,000 people, and I refer to all of these people of my "sistaz" or "bruthaz". I have black origins, but I also have a PHD. I feel for the people in Uganda, and if I could do more I would, i just can't be bothered.

Bombo- Railway station- Australia.

1 platform, 2 tracks, inter-city rail. Enough said. I'm not too fond of Australia and their ancestry. The country is a little tarnished, and they all have blood on their hands- nothing to do with Great Britain, of course.

I thank you for reading my post, I hope to continue with fluidity in future and gather, and hold, some rapprochement with my readers.

Goodnight. Love. Bombo.
