"STORIES ABOUT ME"

When i was 20 or 22 years old, i decided to move to the great province of Ontario, Canada. So i got there and went to the place i was going to stay at. These peoples are friends of mine. The couples had two boys just abit younger than me. I got a job and i stay at there place for about a year, if i remember right.

Now these peoples had never seen me without my long bread and very long hair. So this day i went into town and brought my self a suit of clothes. So after awhile i came back to the place i was staying at. The woman was the only one around that day, cause all the rest was out working, but i had a day off.

Then i ask her if she knew where i could get my hair cut. She said that she would cut my hair, so i said ok. She cut my hair in what i think they called "a feather" type of hair cut. So then i took my new clothes and went into the bathroom. I cut my long bread off and they was a piled of hair from it to. Plus i took a shower. I then put all of my new clothes on and came out to where she was sitting down.

I ask her if she thought the clothes fix me or if maybe i should take them back and get a different size. She look at me and got up and went in the bathroom and look all the round. Then she came out and look at me and then said to her dog lucky, is that Rollie. i said what wrong. She said it a good thing i was here and seen you go in the bathroom. Cause she said one person went in but another different person came out. She could not believe how different i look. lol

She then told me to go and sit down and when her man and her two boys came home, see if they knew who i was. But for me not to say anything. So one of her boys came home and came in and she said, there someone in the other room that want to see you. So he came in and i stood up, he spoke to me but i did not say anything. His mother then said, he will not speak, till you figure out who he is. I walk around and he could not figure out who i was. So after a long while i spoke his name, only. He said, Rollie, no it can not be. I said, why not. He had a hard job believing it was me. But when i spoke, that give me away. lol

So then we did the same thing when her other boy came home and he did not know who i was. Plus her man did not know who i was till i spoke. I have a very bad speaking voice.

"UNRECOGNIZABLE"

This story takes place 15 to 18 years ago or there about. My mother, brother daughter got married, and me, mom and my next brother went to the party afterward. I had only been to one wedding in my life and that was one to many.

But anywhere my brother phone me up and asked if i was going to it. I said, i had not plan to. But he wanted to go so after awhile he talk me into going. Then i told him but there a problem, i got no suit or tie or dress-shoes to wear. He replied, that no problem because he had  some that i could wear. So then i went down to one of my sisters places and got her to cut my long hair and very long bread. So after i got a hair cut an shave and took a shower, i then went up to my brother place. So i pick out a suit of clothes and a tie and put them on.

Now he did not want to take his car because he was afraid it may break down. So i phone mom and told her that we wanted to go and would she go. She said OK. So then a while later mom pull into the driveway and me and my brother go out and get it. Mom look at me and said something about how good i look when i was all clean up.

So then we started on our way. But i wanted to stop to the store just down a road and buy something to drink. So we stop and i went in and got what i wanted and then started to walk out, when the owner said, be with you in a minute's sir. I look at him and said, do not you know who i am. Well he stop and look at me and said, rollie? I said, yes it me. Well he could not believe it. Then he said, wait here, i got to go get my wife to see this. So his wife came out and look at me and said, sorry i got no idea of who he is. Her man said, we know him very good and he is here alot. She said, sorry i got no idea of who he is, for i had never seen him before. So them i said,"Kim, do not you know me"? Well she look at me and said, rollie? i said it me. She then said, man you look different, when you get all clean up. Plus there was a couples of others peoples there that night and they still shake their head, because they found it hard to believe that i could look that different, by just cleaning up.

Plus when we got to the reception, most of the peoples there did not know who i was. And all the peoples there was all my own peoples.
