A New Year a Better Life

2012-01-20T21:59:00.001-06:00

Man, the first month of 2012 is half way over and I’m just now getting a chance to blog. Not that I’ve been here regularly or anything. Let’s see… I don’t make resolutions however I do set goals and have growth points I'd like to reach. For me 2012 is about simplifying my life. As of late I have been really conscious of my consumption. I am a consumer….I have come to realize and accept

Please hand me my protection...

2011-12-05T13:27:00.001-06:00

I have NEVER wanted so badly in my life to trust someone…. and despite my attempts the universe tells me… no. I mean I don’t know what else to do. If you can’t trust someone you never can really love that person because well how can you love someone and trust them with your heart if you can’t TRUST them period…. This week was suppose to be one FILLED with excitement and I woke up this morning

Love is MY Battlefield

2011-11-20T18:19:00.001-06:00

“No matter who you love it is so simple a feeling, but it’s everything” Unlike many women, I am not in love with love. The sad fact is love and I have a complicated relationship, it’s mostly one where I spend most of my time fighting it and its affects on me. You see somewhere I developed this view of loving as being something for the weak. I mean I get why, for someone like me who has

Hi blogsphere

2011-11-14T17:38:00.001-06:00

I told myself I need to write more...I haven't. I've started lots of post and made some journal entries but really I have not been writing and to be honest I'm starting to grow tired of it but I also know its my cycle. Sometimes I don't write cause I have absolutely nothing to say not in this forum. Last time I wrote prolifically on here it was because I was still settling into who I was and

Smile Because It Happened

2011-07-19T11:25:00.003-05:00

I woke up this morning to the Today show, like I do every workday morning, playing on TV. Apparently watching the Today show is something only old broads do, as I was informed last night. The youth of America says young chicks don't watch the Today Show. Anyway, the cast of Entourage was on this morning and a tweet of Jeremy Piven's was mentioned by Matt. Piven said David Nutter told him when

“I trust in Love's timing and give it room for it to grow in all my relationships.” -somebody with good sense This is my home… I haven’t really been back here much mostly because sometimes you gotta wonder and wander around the wilderness. I’m in a real weird space right now and here is definitely where I come to work that kinda thing out. Right now… I have a lot of feelings swirling and a lot

Tipping Point

2011-05-21T18:52:00.001-05:00

"Nobody’s life is entirely free of pain and sorrow. Isn’t it a question of learning to live with them rather than trying to avoid them? The greater part of human pain is unnecessary. It is self-created as long as the unobserved mind runs your life. The pain that you create now is always some form of nonacceptance, some form of unconscious resistance to what is. On the level of thought, the

Ding Dong That Dude Is Dead

2011-05-02T11:45:00.000-05:00

I totally get this. I totally understand WHY we are out in the streets celebrating the death of a man who made it HIS life mission to eradicate everything American on this earth. I do. I’ve seen the footage of him & his minions (and other American haters) celebrating the deaths of thousands of Americans & American supporters as a result of their Unholy Holy War. (I wish I knew why it’s always

Thoroughly Modern Kate

2011-04-29T11:33:00.000-05:00

I know errrrrrrrrybody got some shit to say about Will and Kate and their day. All I have to say is I LOVED everything about that dress and I also love everything about the road to Royalty that Kate has taken, more so then all the rest of this stuff which is just the Royal tradition and what not. I wish more women would pay attention to a few facts about the princess’s road to her prince tho…

Non-Thanksgiving Things

2010-11-25T10:39:00.003-06:00

Since its still Thursday and this holiday has other shit on my mind. I'm at what should be one of the happiest points of my life and I am feeling real unthankfu and I know it. I mean don't get me wrong but I'm thankful for so much and I have so much more than I ever dreamed of in my life, both materially and spiritually, but emotionally. Emotionally, I feel like I'm lacking, like I'm missing a

2010-09-25T12:01:00.002-05:00

I probably shouldn’t be sharing this, but here I am putting all my business out in cyber space for people to gawk at. The fact is that according to my friends, my life is always full of some shit that never happens to anyone but me. In actuality is seems quite normal and mundane to me, at least it does at the time. Ok sometimes it does seem like some fuck shit* as I’m living it, but most of the

3 more years to get it right

2010-04-29T17:45:00.004-05:00

Ok I'm not going to even address the ridiculously long time it’s been since I posted an original entry. I mean really, I’m way to shame to count up the months. There is only one reason I happen to be putting thoughts to laptop right now (my modern day phrase for pen to paper) and that is because I had a birthday. The one thing I have been doing consistently for the last 5 years of blogging is

2010-03-22T13:10:00.006-05:00

The following is something I wrote in 2006. Blame the #futurehusband Trending Topic on Twitter for why I'm re-posting something that is almost 4 years old. And to be honest I'm not quite sure I'm still waiting on this man physically. Sometimes I feel he is in my life, he just isn't where he needs to be emotionally (which really means he ain't the one, I'm just letting myself down easily. However

Happy Black Girls Rock Red Pumps!

2010-03-10T00:02:00.001-06:00

Today is Happy Black Girl day and National Women and Girls HIV/AIDS Awareness Day (NWGHAAD). In honor of two fine occasions, I post. HIV/AIDS is an epidemic that is killing women off. Every 35 minutes, a woman test positive for HIV/AIDS in the US. And new statistics show that HIV/AIDS cases in the some parts of US are outpacing Africa. True Story! 1 in 4 Americans living with HIV are women.

2010-03-03T23:26:00.004-06:00

I spend a good amount of my spare time on the internets (no typo-I love Lauren for this) and I am a people watcher, so this post comes from something yet nothing in particular. Authenticity seems to be something everyone pushes yet is there really a way to tell. I expect almost everyone online to be presenting a version of who they believe themselves to be or who they WANT to be or a mix

Again you all have a fabulous blogger to thank for this wonderful post today. I was over reading this on (not)Happy about this, one of the few blogs my work lets me pass my time reading. Her blog is really about that space the space between "Hey how you doing?

My Personal Haiti

2010-01-27T07:32:00.004-06:00

I think the one thing Haiti has done for a lot of people is put there lives into perspective. I mean really, if you are young or in the middle of a big growing pain something like Haiti helps put your problems in check real quick. I can not tell you how many tweets about Haiti I have seen that say before Haiti I complained and thought about the minutest shit. For some they have had a fairly good

In Response to Why Were Not Friends

2010-01-20T16:19:00.003-06:00

I just can’t blog in people’s comment section anymore. The following is a response to this post . Lauren is my #twittertwin and if you haven’t checked out her blog you should. She has some good points but I kinda didn’t all the way agree with her post, I went to comment and had so much to say- well it turn into this, my second post of 2010 ( I know Imma lame). So this post really won’t make sense

I warn you now that this blog has not been outlined or even conceived in my head. It’s a straight of the dome blog for me today. I’m stepping in the booth with no paper and just what ever flows outta my heart will be what you read today. Yes folks,

It sounds incredibly asinine as I sit here and type this out.

What a Crazy Day

2009-06-26T05:49:00.005-05:00

Wassup fam! Yesterday was quite a roller coaster of emotions for me. As you all know MJ went to meet his maker yesterday. I wonder how familiar he looked or warm his reception was considering the extensive changes he made to God's original version. Then before that Farrah Fawcett lost her battle with cancer, I LOVED Charlie Angels. Then a day before Ed McMahon. This death totally reminds me of

Random Thoughts about Life!

2009-05-31T13:30:00.003-05:00

Funny thing! I just gotta share. I think it is so funny that when you change how you live your life people react before trying to see if the change is positive. I've made changes in my life many times and the thing I realize is that some people don't like change because they believe it to be some kind of commentary on who they are and how they live instead of it being your personal statement on

Getting Back Up

2009-05-25T14:06:00.004-05:00

I have to say Keri and Kanye are right and sometimes love does INDEED knock you down. And the sad sad thing is when you both know that right now and maybe never that its not gonna work, that you need more than your love for each other to make it through. I've been spending time going through that and the getting back up has been a bytch. However I am glad to say that I am getting back up. I think

I Corinthians 13 is my most favorite (yes I'm aware that is not correct usage and that I don't need the most in front of the favorite) chapter of the Bible ever. It is the guide for how we should love and it should help us sort the wheat from the chaff or the lust from the love. Even

At this point all the excitement of getting to the presidency is over and now it must be about making the kind of history that we can not so clearly see and understand. We have celebrated the momentousness

I mean after all I recall heari

To bad he spent his campaign pandering to much of that element and I beleive that is what contributed to his SMASHING on November 4, 2008. Had McCain been the McCain of 2000 and his speech on election night, he

I think a healthy relationship has to be one in which YOU are happy. Not all the times, but a good amount of time. A healthy relationship has to be the relationship that fits what you want for you and yours. And as I

Ok maybe not really... but in my head I AM! And after all isn’t that what confidence is about, thinking you the shyt no matter what your reality mirror says. So chatting with the crew the other day we were talking about feeling pretty.I think every woman has her thing that she thinks makes her! You know like you may let a lot of things go but if you gotta bring your lunch and use a metal detector

So each day I'm working on it, because its preventing me from living my best life. I'm climbing up to the platform. Turning away and placing my arms across my chest. I am trusting him not to hurt me intentionally. I am trusting him to love me as much as he says he does, I am trusting him with me, the little me inside that watches the big me make all the decisions. I'm not quite ready to fall back

So, today I went to see The Secret Lives of Bee's. It was a hard decision between this and W and I decided that real world politics was enough for me after watching McCaint on Meet the Press. So I opted to see something about women. Bee's is a story...well I am sure you probably kinda know the story but if you don't here's a brief description. Anyway I went because I consider myself a feminist,

I am not middle class. I’m not rich. Actually maybe I am middle class, but I know I am closer to the top than at the heart (or the middle) of the middle class. To be honest I make more than the average American family (Google what that is if you need to know my business, but how much more than that average will remain my business). I make more than two adults in a average household, I hold a

When I was young my standards about a man were OOOOOh so different. Then I married someone who had a majority of the things OG’s perfect mate list.What I didn’t realize that most of those things were NOT as important as I thought. Actually I realized that my list was not really my list, but a list of what I thought women in general wanted. My list was built on the surface things that keep

Look! I really can’t say I am surprised by where we are today. I mean really do you remember back in ’99 when Bush was running for his first term against Gore. Many of those opposed to W pointed out this man HAS NEVER run a successful anything. They listed his many failed business ventures and companies he had taken INTO the ground, yet half of America (not the majority I mind you but I will give

Why are black people so dangerous in America? or should I say Why do black people cause fear in white America? I was sitting here thinking...I know very dangerous thing me thinking.
