Weird Dreams

I had the strangest dream that my boyfriend's brother and I were laying on the floor like a yin yang.  That's worse than having a sexual dream!  What does it all mean?

Act Like You Know

"The Antarctic Peninsula is important because research has revealed that the forces of climate change are having a great effect on the region."

Kelsey Grammer seems like a real dick (not that his ex-wife Camille was any prize - crazy bitch).
I still fucks with Frasier though - funny stuff

For women everywhere who grew up with Disney princesses, at one time or another have been disappointed to find out that “happily ever after” is a very rare occurrence, and even then life cannot be consistently easy or good without a few hardships...

I no longer believe in meant to be.

Weird Dreams

Last night, I dreamed that I had borrowed a car from my ex-boyfriend.  I rode around in it all day and would run into him while I was out.  It was a hooptie (in real life, his car is actually nice).

There was more to the dream, but now I can't remember.  Gotta write these things down first thing in the morning I guess.

Duh!

So I saw this Headline today:  "Jay-Z:  I Shot My Brother When I Was 12" and I thought, "No s**t, Sherlock!"  
Anyone who is a true Jay-Z fan should already know this courtesy of "You Must Love Me" lyrics.  ah, commercial fans - I can smell 'em a mile away.

"We used to fight every night
but I never would suffer
just smile my big brother's
tryna make me tougher
As we grew fussing and fighting continued
as I plundered through ya stuff
and snuck ya clothes to school
Got intense real intense
as we got older
Never believed it would lead
to be popped in one of ya shoulda"

I'm officially depressed
Shopping for therapists now
I already know how the conversation will start:

Therapist:  So what's wrong?

Me:         Everything!

Therapist:  Could you define "everything"?

Me:         I mean every fucking thing that could possibly go
            wrong has gone wrong: my career, my love life...  
            Why else would I be here?

Therapist:  I understand, but I need specifics-

Me:         *sigh* You're incompetent.

Confessions: Wasting the Pretty

I wish I'd gotten married and had children at a very young age. Not that I didn't want to.  It just didn't happen that way.  Now, I don't know whether I can deal with either one because it takes a certain naivete to enjoy some things and my rose-colored glasses got lost a long time ago.

I can't stand my worthless ass sister.
Can't depend on her for shit!
That is all

I woke up with the perfect afro this morning.  Just the right amount of softness, control, and texture.
*sigh*
Too bad I had to wrangle the poor thing into a bun for work.  poor poor afro

Regret (An a.m. stream of consciousness)

My life is full of regrets. Let me count the ways:

I regret...

• not having my tonsils removed when I was a little girl
• not taking that trip to London by myself (it was a steal!)
• not visiting various friends while they lived abroad
• not visiting one of my favorite city's sooner (I would have moved there for school)
• befriending certain people
• never living away from home
• never visiting my grandmother's native land
• not speaking up to my true love (maybe I would be married now. I wonder every day...)
• not speaking up when I ran into my college crush on an elevator (that moment had kismet written all over it and I didn't grab it. Again, maybe I would be married now...)
• sleeping with that guy that time (ugh) - and anyone else I had no real feelings for
• every sexual encounter I've had since my first love. (I have only enjoyed 1 since)
• not quitting my first real job on the spot (before I had a mortgage to worry about and when jobs were a dime a dozen; oh God, why did I stay and put up with it??)
• buying my current home (well, not completely - love my neighbors, hate the property)
• never having my "city living" experience
• not calling 911 when my sister tried to kill herself (maybe she would have gotten the help she needed)
• begging my parents not to divorce (it would have been better)
• not beating my sister's abusive boyfriend's ass within an inch of his life while I was still a minor
• not moving in with my first love (bump "living in sin"; maybe he wasn't my true love, but I would be content)
• dating someone out of loneliness and desperation
• not telling my friend's parents that she was molested

Debt IS Slavery

"the borrower is servant to the lender"
- Proverbs 22:8, The Holy Bible

I'm happy to see churches addressing this problem (although worshiping at the altar of almighty debt is in no way a problem exclusive to Black Americans).  It has always smacked of hypocrisy to me when pastors not only encourage their members to go into debt (e.g. prosperity ministries), but sit at the head of a multi-million dollar mega church and don't help their members in need.

I've always tried my best not to owe anyone. We were taught early on that credit cards are evil.  I've had a few since then and this is the first time my balance has gotten out of control.  There is definitely a sense of oppression that comes with that.  I'm pretty extreme when it comes to my feelings about debt.  The Bible explicitly warns against being in debt to anyone PERIOD; so I always found it odd when churches encouraged property ownership, because - as most Americans have now learned - unless you can buy the house outright - you don't own a damn thing and you wind up in what will likely be the biggest debt in your life (unless you get seriously ill of course - that will really ruin you financially in the good ol' USA).  The BANK owns your house/condo.  Try not paying your mortgage. You'll find out who owns what so fast your head will spin.  I miss the freedom of renting - the freedom of the ability to just walk away.  Sure, you can't make any money when you're renting but you also can't make a profit if you can't sell your home - and you wind up with ruined credit.  Pick your poison.

Leave Groupies Alone

STD's, emotional instability, losing it all
Just a few reasons [straight] male entertainers should leave groupies alone. And if that wasn't enough, this vid is yet another reason (unless trannies are their flavor ;and I'm sure some of them don't mind at all). *shrug*

Real Life Lessons Mama Never Told You

Lesson #2


Always picture a man with a bald head before you date him (or, if he looks anything like his father, check out his dad) - because eventually most men go bald and/or look like their fathers and you may want to know what you'll wind up staring at 20 years from now.

Real Life Lessons Mama Never Told You

Lesson #1

Never date a waiter seriously.  The restaurant industry is one big incestuous drug and sex orgy.  Unless you want to wake up with an STD (or a missing wallet), leave waiters alone!

Watching "Unsung"

So Tammi Terrell started having headaches when she was about 10 years old, then died from a brain tumor at 24.  So she probably had the tumor the entire time. And James Brown regularly going upside her head (literally) didn't help either.  Wow; that's sad.  :o(

"You know, all that really matters is that the people you love are happy and healthy. Everything else is just sprinkles on the sundae."

It's That Serious

I seriously need to go back to yoga before somebody gets stabbed.
No seriously, even though I didn't necessarily enjoy the physical part of yoga (nor how it whittled down my already too skinny frame), outside of class I definitely experienced a clarity of mind and focus that is dwindling now that I've stopped.  Looking up yoga classes now...

Sometimes, I think Lil' Wayne sold his soul to the Devil.

Try this....or fresh fruit and vegetables!  Eating right works WONDERS for your skin.

That's Just Sad

Why is it that the biggest dick I've ever seen was on some deranged homeless man standing on a city street corner?

I Never Realized...

...how deep the lyrics to this song were.

I'm Just Sayin'...

Aren't cigarette pants just glorified high-waters?

TMI

I hate it when people at work give waaaaay too much information.  I ask a simple question, I want a simple answer.  Bottom line only please.  Don't ramble and give me details that, quite frankly, don't interest me, nor assist me in completion of my task.  Why do people do this?!

Just call me Francine

Yesterday, I happened to catch one of the first TV movies about domestic violence I can remember - The Burning Bed . Anyone who has ever doubted Ferrah Fawcett's acting ability, has never seen this movie. I found myself angry and shedding tears for Francine all over again, cheering when she finally sent Mickey to kingdom come in a fiery bed (just like I did when I first saw the movie as a child, much to my parents' horror). Even though I should be thoroughly numbed to human suffering by most of today's films and shows, Francine's pain still touched me.

Then an incident at work today reminded me of how a work relationship can be a lot like an abusive personal relationship (emotionally anyway). Just call my boss "Micky" and me "Francine".  I swear to God, every time I think it will get better, just like Francine, I tell myself, "S/he wouldn't act like this if I would just get it right." We have a few consecutive days or weeks of peace, then she backhands me across the face. Okay, I obviously don't mean that she literally hits me - but you catch my drift. Each one of these encounters leaves me questioning my abilities, my sanity, feeling incompetent and - worst of all - trapped. Yeah, just call me "Fran"...

So True

Rarely are black women presented to us as three-dimensional people capable of expressing a range of emotions and varying characteristics. Black women are not allowed to be whole human beings.

Black in Germany

Interesting vid to me considering the only Black friends I've had who have lived in Germany were military and pretty much shielded from racism (they attended an American high school with other military kids).  Apparently, things are pretty f***ed up for us outside the gates. Then again, racism is on the rise in Germany, so perhaps it wasn't as bad back then (in the 90s). Never had a desire to visit Germany, so I guess I'll never know. Sad

Hood Rats??

"The KIA Soul commercial is very insulting to me. Are they equating "soul" with hood hamsters/?rats. Who would want to be associated with this car? They are sending the wrong message. I will be boycotting this company and encouraging my friends and associates to do the same. Please review commercial and see if you don't agree."

"This is the most racist commercial I have ever seen and I am so sick of seeing it. I was hoping it would just go away but since you racist ass people think it's so cute, making it a mission to blog about this commercial till they pull it...Hamsters my ass, they are clearly a portrayal of "hoodrats" and I guess a cheap ass KIA is all hoodrats can afford huh KIA...Get with this a cheap ass Kia or a toaster hoodrats...That's the message of this commercial."

Say what you will about Beyoncé, but this is a stunning photo of her.

I'm going to f'ing scream!  We waste so much paper on petty shit in our office.  The trees are going to go "The Happening" on us.

Say Word

This is the comment of the day!  Luvs it because the ish is true. *shrug*

"There's nothing worse than an ugly man with a cocky attitude.... Ladies, we need to stop lowering our standards. Men never do it, and neither should we. The ugliest man will try to pursue the prettiest woman, and you know what.... 9 times out of 10, he gets her... We as women will try to justify our actions by saying "oh he's such a nice guy-- maybe i should give him a chance" and guess what happens? His ole ugly ass turns around and do you dirty because you gave him the ego boost he needed to try and pursue other women. Fuck that.... If I need to put up with some man's mess.... please give me a tall handsome man, with a side order of well endowed penis because I'll be damn if some ugly-chubby-ass-paddington-bear-lookin-muthafucka disrespects me like that.... Christina where is your pride? I thought Nick Cannon was a bit of a cornball but this adult size baby takes the cake. Stop trying to save face for the cameras and dump this chubster."

Sometimes you have to pay for peace of mind.

"O"h, Oprah

So I picked up the most recent issue of "O" Magazine today and this is what I saw:

*sigh*  This outfit is a bargain? Seriously??

Just in case you can't see the image clearly:

Sweater: $70
Shirt:  $70
Belt: $53
Watch: $55
Ring: $14
Pants: $80
Shoes: $69
Bracelets: $20 - $95 (ummmm....)
Earrings: $44

Grand Total?:  at least $475.00

And the caption reads: "Everything Oprah's wearing is under $100!"

Try an entire outfit for under $100!

Oprah's so out of touch. WTF

Don't you hate days when people have a lot of effing questions?  I'm having one of those days.  I especially hate the questions to which I have no answer!

Big birthday parties for 1-year-olds are silly.  Who actually remembers their first [year of life] birthday party?
*crickets*
My point exactly.  Little kids don't remember that shit.

People often talk about how unhealthy "Soul Food" is (or can be); but no one ever complains about Italian food, which is just as bad (if not worse)!   Either way, they both taste GOOOOOOOOD

"wow, you really called him/her out."

"oh yeah; I confront mofos."

I've come to realize that my dog is actually my best friend.

Shut up!

I'm up because, there is a confused bird (or family of birds) outside my window that seems to think 1 a.m. is the crack of dawn.  You're supposed to wake up to the sounds of birds chirping, not fall asleep to it. This has totally screwed me up.  It's like watching the sunrise. Once the sun has come up, I can't go back to sleep. It's the same thing.  A chirping bird is like an alarm clock to me. "It's time to wake up, sleepy head!"  Just imagine your alarm going off at 1 a.m.  Ugh
As much as I love animals, I want to hurt this bird right now.  Operation nest relocation might go into effect tomorrow.

I believe this oil spill (and the chemical being used to "clean" it) is going to kill us all.  Seriously; you know the philosophical question about what you would do if you only had a few days/weeks/months to live?  If the oil spill isn't contained, that question has just become quite real.  Fucking stupid BP

People are protesting BP today (too bad I didn't know this before I ran dangerously low on gas near a BP station this morning.  I've been avoiding the news because it's depressing me).  I respect that, but protesting isn't going to save lives. Right now, efforts should be concentrated on finding a solution.  Otherwise, we can protest all we want, but we'll all still wind up dead.

Toxic ocean = toxic rain = toxic ground water x toxic air = asphyxiation, sterilization, starvation and dehydration = DEATH

Animal Quiz

Have you ever taken one of those animal personality quizzes?
You know, the "what animal are you" questionnaires that always give the following options:

Lion, Bear, Lamb, zzzzzzzzzzzz

The options are always the same and you always know where they're going with it; boring right?

I thought it over today and decided that my animal personality is....

the KANGAROO

I love kangaroos. They're right up there with dolphins.  Yeah, I could be a dolphin too if I didn't have such a deep-seated fear of wild waters.  Why a kangaroo, you ask?

Because they look cute and unassuming, but if you mess with them, you're in for the ass kicking of your life.

So yeah, I'm a f***ing kangaroo.  GRRR!

Shacking Up

People don't move in together out of love anymore.
Long gone are the days of,

"It's getting serious."
"I think he/she's the one."

I've grown to realize that, nowadays, moving in with a woman is often about convenience for a man.
Plainly put, it's easy access to p**sy.
Or a quick cure for the lonelies
but love, the shit sometimes ain't.

Sometimes, I think I only want what's out of my reach.

Chick-fil-a's peach milkshake is like an orgasm in a cup
Seriously, try that s**t.

I hate it when "She" gives me a shitload of work to do, then proceeds to interrupt me every few minutes. Then she has the gall to ask me how far I've gotten. Well, NOWHERE since you won't leave me the hell alone and let me do my work!  I just can't take it sometimes...

B*tch, please!

Some people should practice going a whole day without correcting the mistakes of others. I know some people who probably couldn't do it to save their lives.

Everyone laughing at this is probably going to hell.  LOL

Everyone's a critic.

my sister is a bitch.

Elisabeth Hasselbeck is a Judgmental Idiot

"Hasselbeck's comments were 'a slap in the face to victims of stalking and sexual predators.'"

Indeed they were. Hasselbeck is the type of person who puts a rape victim on trial. What a jerk. She also clearly knows nothing about ballroom dancing costumes. They get FAR skimpier than what Erin Andrews has worn so far. Me thinks the green-eyed monster has reared its ugly head.



PS - Funny how it's much easier to find video of a tearfully apologetic Hasselbeck (Save it, bitch!), but the vid of her making the offensive comments is harder to find. And I love how Whoopi tricked Hasselbeck into repeating her simple-minded comments on air for all the world to hear. She knew exactly what she was doing. Whoopi, you're too smooth!

Here's a thought: Replace Hasselbeck on The View with Andrews!

I hate engaging in psychological warfare at work, but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.

I am so over fake ass people.

Stephanie Grace, YOU are a bad person!

"BP did not build the containment devices before the spill because it 'seemed inconceivable' the blowout preventer would fail, Rinehart said. 'I don't think anybody foresaw the circumstance that we're faced with now,' he said."

"I've taken baths deeper than you."

"Now don't that just make you feel like a pimple on God's butt?"

I feel like listening to a lot of guitar and screaming.

It's an extrovert's world. I just live in it.

Party favors are stupid

This is a great question, one I struggle with every day.  Actually, it's the story of my life and why I'm still single. I always meet one or the other: Fine as hell but dumb as rocks, or, Mr. Personality but please-keep-your-clothes on-because-you-have-nothing-i-want-to-see (with a little of the fine but no-good combo here and there, but I don't even bother dating those since their asshole vibe can be felt a football field's length away).  Neither holds my interest for long.  Either I love talking to him but no longer want him to touch me (and clearly a relationship cannot work this way) or I love touching him but cringe every time we try to have a meaningful conversation (or he writes me a love letter replete with spelling errors - which also results in no longer wanting him to touch me). I will ponder this question today and try to pick one.

Sometimes apathy feels so good.

Funny Stuff

Bo Translation: "Are you kidding me? I'm not going anywhere. These kids LOVE me!"
He was merely sharing The First Lady's enthusiasm for the prevention of childhood obesity (I love the Obamas, but seriously?? Were there no other more pressing causes?). Anyway, I'm sure somewhere a dog trainer's head will roll for this:

Nudie Pix?

I think I'm at that point in life when you start taking nude photos to capture your youth (before it's gone).  I'll get the boyfriend to do it. He takes great nude photos of me all the time now but I never let him keep them because he could hate me one day and God knows what he would do with such photos then!  Like right now, we hate each other, and I am glad he has no nude photos of me.
So we always use my digital camera which I immediately confiscate and delete.  Now, I think I will take some to keep; then show them to someone one day when I'm a little old lady. I'll whip them out at inopportune moments and say, "I was real hot once!"

I think my socks are too tight.

why the fuck does my supervisor ask me what will keep me busy while he's away from the office?  Seriously?
Seriously.
I'm tempted to reply, "I'm going to sit here and twiddle my thumbs...maybe pick some belly button lint. You know, just shoot the s**t."
I mean God forbid I have some downtime.
Don't you worry, "massa" boss, I have plenty to keep me busy.

I'd rather be on stage somewhere right now singing or dancing...or acting.  I am going to implode.

If Alice Smith's new album is not released soon, I suggest a riot.

Do you ever get the overwhelming feeling that someone you know is going straight to Hell in a handbasket (if you believe in Hell that is)? That's not to say I'm sure of where I'm going when I leave this Earth. I just hope and pray a lot of days. But seriously, some people are so effing evil I don't know how they can live with themselves!

Confession

I believe the world is ending soon. I'm serious; "repent, the end is near!" and all that.
That makes it pretty hard to care about much else these days. I mean, why bother going to work, paying bills, having children?
Seriously, have you watched the news??

“The truth will set you free. But first, it will piss you off.” -Gloria Steinem

Wow, the adult entertainment awards are a trip. Every time someone says, "I worked my ass off", I giggle.

I feel very unattractive and old lately.  I don't know why.

Russian Boy

If any of the following is true:

"Hansen chronicled a list of problems: hitting, screaming and spitting at his mother and threatening to kill family members."

"the 7-year-old's violent episodes — which culminated in a threat to burn the family's home to the ground"

'"He drew a picture of our house burning down and he'll tell anybody that he's going to burn our house down with us in it," she said. "It got to be where you feared for your safety. It was terrible."'

I would have put little bad ass on a plane to NOWHERE. Had she allowed this child to remain in the home with his serious psychological issues, he quite possibly would have made good on his many threats. Then people would criticize her for NOT doing anything about it.  People are so quick to criticize until it's their lives in danger.

weirdness

Last night, I dreamed that:

- A coworker moved in across the street. No idea why I would dream about her becoming my neighbor. Further, her husband was a postal worker who parked all of the mail trucks at their house.

- I went to the doctor to pick up some blood work and there was something wrong with my pancreas and I was pregnant

- I never showed up to work one day because there was a combo of floodwaters and slush blocking the streets. I never called or showed up. I've dreamed about not showing up to work (for various reasons) several times lately.

It's always fucking ugly on my birthday

Once upon a time I was deep. Then shit got real and I stopped giving a damn about the philosophical nonsense.

"Soylent Green is people!"

"You can plan a pretty picnic, but you can't predict the weather."

So Jesse James cheated on Sandra Bullock, huh?
Imagine my surprise.

NOT

I mean, isn't this the same guy who has been married at least twice before (apparently with some *ahem* overlap between wives #1 and #2)?? A leopard doesn't change its spots.

Further, one of his former wives was a porn star. A fucking porn star!!  What man in his right mind marries a porn star?? Better yet, what woman marries a man formerly [knowingly] married to a porn star??  Seriously, an average woman (as far as sexual prowess goes) can never measure up to a porn star in bed.  Hell, your average woman can't even measure up to your common run-of-the-mill ho. Women need to let go of these fantasies about men being deeper than they are. They like the nastiest sex they can find.  Love does not conquer all if you're attempting to screw your husband's brains out and he's comparing you to his previous porn actress flame. If your man happened to ever be involved with a porn actress, give up now. Nobody is better in bed than a woman with self esteem so low, she sexually degrades herself for a living (or free for that matter). It's just a sad fact. Worse yet, imagine the cooties you would get from him!  Jesse James is gross. Move on, Sandra. Move on...and get an STD panel STAT!

i can't stand my sister
she is the most selfish, self-absorbed, narcissistic person in the world!

Wendy Williams is a godawful person. Why do people keep talking to her??

I had no problem with Tyra Banks...until she started talking.

House Hunters International is a cool show...mostly because it helps me realize how f***ing spoiled many of us are in America. Well, actually, I already knew we were spoiled (generally speaking), but some people are beyond belief with it!

I don't know why people think Gisele Bundchen is so hot.  That's not to say she's unattractive or anything; I just honestly don't see anything extraordinary about her.

Further, why is she always billed as some exotic Brazilian beauty??  Sure, she grew up in Brazil, but she is ethnically German - period.  Nothing wrong with that; just call her what she is.

I hate American Idol.
