Sade

Well, here it is. Do I know Sade Adu? Does she know me? The answer to that question requires context. For several months before the Lover's Live concert I made known to certain folks that I believed I was in conversation with Sade Adu. During the Lover's Live concert I came to believe that it was true that I was in conversation with Sade Adu. That's the extent of it. She is a popular star whom every sane man desires. So disputing any conversation between myself and Sade Adu would be par for the course. So those people did. Now, when they did, dispute this conversation, I said nothing. I was either right or wrong. Either way, whether or not we were discussing before Lover's Live, there is a great probability that because of my performance in certain cyber venues, she is aware of me now, and that I consider her special in my life. This is as much as I believe is relevant to say about that. HOWEVER, if were WERE discussing before Lover's Live, then the thing we were discussing is very ticklish to me. And that's as much as I'll say about that. Do I believe I was in discussion with Sade. Of course. That's a no-brainer. Did Lover's Live reinforce this meaningfully? Another no-brainer. Sade fans will get it. I was the idiot supposed to bring flowers this time. And I... we almost made it. Believe it or not, that night of the Sade concert, all levels of law enforcement were working together to ensure a smooth concert and delivery of flowers to the lady. I just messed up on time. But she made note of certain things on stage and that's that. But so what?
Well, Sade is an Ibadan girl, functionally. I'm Ibadan's highest artist. It seems plausible to me that, in searching for her identity, the Universe would bring us together... I'll leave it at that, until I'm famous in the mainstream, and not merely amongst analysts who monitor potential threats... to the Federation...
