“Hit me up”

As someone who likes to do their own thing, I like to tell people to hit me up later on as opposed to telling them I will do so. This is for a few reasons.

I like to do what I want to do. If I feel like sitting in my room watching Futurama or making music, I'll do so. And unless it's someone I'd drop almost anything for (usually a lady friend), I don't want to be disturbed. This means I won't call anyone because, again, I'm doing my thing and that's the way I'd like to keep it. I'm happy with that.

So essentially, people have to let me know they want to hang out. You can't control anyone, so I know if I get the inkling to hang out with someone they may or may not want to. The same goes for me. And usually, I may say I'll hit you up just out of some kind of made-up obligation I feel. Which means I won't actually hit you up later. In fact, I only will if I suddenly get the impulse to be around someone-- usually to occupy some time. Because if it's a guy friend, I'm just trying to shoot the shit for a bit. Talk about what happened during the day over a cigarette or something. If it's a lady friend, I'm probably trying to get to know her or just have some fun. This can mean naked fun, too.

My point here is that, well, you should hit me up. And I think this is the way things go for most people. We like to pretend otherwise, but we're all very selfish creatures at the base of us all. So accepting this fact just makes life that much easier. Yep.
