political nonsense...

is it me?? or do you hate turning on the boob tube (haaaaaaahaaaaaaaaaaa I said boob!!) and seeing all the mud slinging campaign ad? It's like WELL who the hell do I vote for if EVERYONE has something bad to say about someone else?? We all know that the person we thought would do what we wanted may have voted a different way. But as an average chick who does not make it her priority to know every little thing my elected officials are doing what Am I to do??

Senator Barb
I will say this Barbara Mikulski!! I love her ads; waddle and all!! (that would be all her neck fat... made famous (or more noticeable) by the dude from Ally McBeal) She is like the grandmother you never wanted... but you still can't help but love her!! It's almost like Barb said Martin O'Malley is ok SO.. that's who I'ma vote for! I am trolling youtube for the ad with the yutz in the background. Sober OR a lil tipsy it is HILARIOUS!! She is BALWMOR at it's finest! I can't find it. : / Well... let me describe it.. she is walking thru a school and random (yet very diverse) kids are in the background. At the end she says something like 'will we work for you' and the kids pump one first in the air and say "YEAH". I FOUND IT!!! it is on her home page. You might gotta watch it a few times to see what I mean about the fist pump. Maybe it's just funnier on a TV screen.

Question A
I don't live in Anne Arundel county so I don't think I can vote for the whole slots thing, but I would SOOO vote for Question A!!! DO a little shopping, play a few slots!! Sounds win-win to me!! Plus it will add jobs to MD and people will be less inclined to go to West Virginia (maybe... maybe not) to spend their mullah.

Kratovil and Harris
I know Kratovil is A Democrat and Harris is a Republican( or maybe the other way around) but they have done a GREAT job of not making me want to vote for either. Both of them portray the other as lying, conniving, backstabber. But again I'm not even sure I can vote for either one. And to be honest I might just leave it blank on election day (or the week prior since we can now vote early; but for some reason I don't feel like my vote really REALLY counts unless it is on election day)



I am a good citizen. My mother was a social studies teacher who still get excited about 'map skills'. My people (both Black people AND women people) have fought so that I could have a voice. but I'm just not sure I want one! It's almost like hey we got Obama in the White house WHAT ELSE do we need to do!?!? I know it's very passive and I will cast my vote but can you people PLEASE just stop slinging all the freaking mud?!?!?

10.20.10... just an ordinary day

there are at least 5 squirrels scampering around my backyard. Is it mating season? At least someone is getting some! LOL OR Are they storing up nuts for the winter? Here they are leaving off what God gave them... and they are nice and plump! Not missing no meals and they look happy and healthy.

OK so my general thoughts and ranting are of such little consequence these days I even wonder why I bother. I mean yeah I know there is a greater good (oh damn I just stole a tagline from TIAA CREF those sons of bitches that wont hire me back... yeah ok I didn't give 2 weeks but the chick who was in charge was MAJOR beeeyotch... BTW did you know Martha Stewart came up with that?!? I overheard someone say that recently and I just LOVE how white folks actually think another white person came up with something that is clearly from black culture and/or hip hop; i actually almost said something to the woman but i really didn't feel like going there that day...where was I OH yeah end parenthasis).

Atlanta Housewives
I ALWAYS have something to say about them. The sheer hilarity in each show. SO this week Dwight... I really want to know what he really does. Supposedly he has a salon, but I have NEVER seen him do no ones hair. He and his "PR" guy go to Sheree's house to clear up some things. Allegedly he spent $30k for her show last season. NOW I KNOW for a fact that when you put on a show/party/family reunion/whatever there are extra expenses that may not have been budgeted, but I also know that you keep receipts because it can either be returned or you might need to get reimbursed. Not one time has anyone asked for NOR produced any receipts. I mean I don't have an extra 30 bucks let alone 30 thousand so really Dwight?!? Are you really gonna stick to that story?

Phaedra and Apollo... is it me or do they act like they just met and are dating?!? I know they are married and expecting a baby but they seem SOOOO detached from each other. And what does HE do?? We all know she is this high falutent lawyer cause she says it EVERY chance she gets, but he just seems to do not much if anything.

Kim... you are singing your ONE song at a gay event. WHY was she flirting?!?! they don't want you!! If anything they prolly think you are another drag queen. And Bravo y'all aint slick I saw 2 of the chicks from Rupaul's Drag Queen show AND Kim Vo from the Sheer Genius show. I know this because Reality show are my guilty pleasure!!

My cat
If I could read her mind I really think she is saying 'Bitch can you please leave this house already?' In fact I think most of her sentences begin with BITCH. Like 'Bitch not there... aahhh... there RIGHT there NOW you stroking me right!!' or 'Bitch can you please clean this damn litter box!! It's been 2 weeks already!!' or when I turn on the light 'BITCH don't you see me sleeping!!??' or 'NO MORE pictures Bitch NO MORE!!' LMBAO I don't know why that's what she looks like she is saying. I'm so glad I got her though. I mean granted it was for the critters but now I don't know what I would do with out her.

Men
LOUD SIGH... My sister and I had a little misunderstanding about men and not to go into detail because she is one of my loyal 5 readers (LOL). I just thought she putting up with crap she shouldn't have to. I am all for people getting what they want and need out of life, but you know looking from the outside that's not what I thought was going on. I will say I am sooooooooooo done with all the bull shit and I am ready to be wooed!! I am tired of not being the special one or just being the chick on the side no real time invested. When I think back to everyone I have dealt with since I was 15 (15 cause that was when I had my 1st 'real' boyfriend) i just have accepted some... well BULL SHIT!! The guy then, who is now happily (i guess it's happy...) married with kids, he lived on the other side of town AND went to another high school. This is before cell phones and face book. He never called and probably had another girl at his school. Even though at 15 my mom found her 'soulmate' (that would be my father) I truly did not. Fast forward to college where I really didn't date that much and GOD forbid I get pregnant, so I was pretty guarded with myself. But then I grew up a little or at least I thought.

My 20's I had FUN!! LOTS OF FUN!! Maybe too much fun!?!? I don't know... I know it all boils down to my expectations and what I actually got. I can remember saying that I wanted a relationship and the dude was like 'nah I just wanna chill' SO chill is what we did. I still can't believe I just accepted that nonsense. And then one time (at band camp LOL) a guy told me he hit a deer and that was why he didn't call for like a month... CRAZY yeah I know. One guy who was only a few years older than me told me I was too young to understand what a real relationship is/was.

And very recently one of my girlfriends was tryna do the hook up... and thanks cause a chick NEEDS a hook-up every now and then and she asked if I gave him my number was I interested yadda yadda yadda. All I could say was NO cause he didn't ask and I'm not one to be thrusting my number on someone (been there done that) who aint gonna call anyways. I was not wooed!! I don't have any fantasies about prince charming riding up on a white horse or any other colored horse for that matter(ok yeah I used to but now.. not so much). I just want regular stuff... you know like how Theo broke it down to his dad on the Cosby show. I AM REGULAR PEOPLE!! I got a house, a car and no kids. I would like for my man to have a house(not living in his mama's basement), a car and no kids... oh and not be allergic to my cat. My credit used to be good, it's not great now... but I can pull myself out of this situation so his credit doesn't have to be A+, he just has to be willing to work on it. I graduated from college. He doesn't have to be a rocket scientist, but I was seeing this one guy and he didn't have a good excuse for not even getting his GED. I will work with a brotha, but COME ON!! Have some ambition about bettering yourself. Did this just turn into a match.com or eHarmony ad?!?! LOL

hot housewife madness...

so last night was the premiere for the 3rd season and I really have to question why I sat there and tried to catch up with season 2 AND stay tuned for season 3... it's just a MESS!!

so here's a quick recap/breakdown. I was really trying to think of any of these women that I would actually like to be friends with and really NONE of them except maybe Kandi and I have a small degree of separation (you know the whole 6 degree of separation thing!?!?) to her but that's a story for another day. I will say she held her own when Ne Ne had the gall to say to her the she owed her an apology. Whew that woman is a mess and a 1/2. She is just sooooo confrontational and then think NOTHING of it once she has been all up in someones face. I guess she does now know who her father is cause that man looked just like her son... or rather the other way around. It's just kinda sad, I mean I know who my mother and father are. I guess they explained why Lisa is no longer on the show cause she 'moved away'. But she did move but to another part of Atlanta I thought. I hope she is able to get pregnant though.

Onto Kim... LAWD i don't even know what to say about her. It must be nice to change wigs EVERYDAY. I mean COME ON who does that?!?! Even the fabulous stylist in his heels... WHEW he looked a mess... was like REALLY BITCH COME ON!!! And then her daughter who was like talking and eating so food was all falling out her mouth and Kim was like 'don't kiss any boy' and I was like NO little boy is gonna want to kiss her with all that gunk coming out her mouf!! YEAH I SAID IT M O U F!!!! And then her whole lesbian thing. Yeah I have no words for that but media whore does come to mind.

Kandi who I might actually like as a person for real. I was sad to hear about her fiance being killed, but she is onto some new dude who has VERY NICE TEETH!! Well I mean she has nice teeth so I guess she can't be paired up with no yuck mouth. He's a Raven... Really Bruh... there aint no one in ALLLLL if the Baltimore metropolitan area that you want to date so you gotta go to Atlanta?!?!? Yeah whudeva. Dag I can't even remember his name.

Sheree who I never really liked... and I'm sure she is losing SO much sleep knowing some chick in Baltimore don't like her

I will say this. I don't know if it's a Southern thing or they really just don't know how to use the king's English with correct verb noun pronoun etc usage. They just be jacking some words up!! I mean, my grandmother who was from a small ass town in Mississippi... she spoke VERY WELL so it can't be a Southern thing. And that new housewife WHO ACTUALLY IS A WIFE seems to be able to formulate coherent sentences. SO maybe NeNe, Sheree Kim and that Dwight dude just can't fucking talk!!. HE said something and I had to rewind my DVR and to make sure I heard what I thought I heard. To many wif instead of with of done and did instead of does. I am a stickler for nice teeth and correct language usage. Now this here blog might have you scratching ya head cause I do make up some words regularly and I know my conjugation can use some help most days... but if you are claiming to be SOCIETY and creme de la creme THEN TALK LIKE IT!! Dats alls I'm saying!!

Reality shows in general are just making me so disgruntled, frustrated and any other word that might help to describe my state of disgust. They just aren't REAL. I'm not sure if they ever were. At least the competition shows were entertaining at some point but for real, after Fantasia won (although that season I voted for both her and Jennifer Hudson who's husband looks very Jonathan-esque (Terry MacMillan)yeah go google him... but she does look good from the weight watchers) well no wait I did watch the season Elliot Yamin was on... dag who won that year, but I pretty much stopped when he didn't win. And I never was a Dancing With the Stars fan cause they aint really stars. I WAS a big Amazing Race fan but got mad at them when some whiny ass couple won (glad when the black couple won... not cause they were black but more cause of their situation). Project Runway COMPLETELY robbed Kara Suan and Korto Momolu on their respective seasons ( I still think that was racial). ANTM was just more of the same each cycle. I want a nice little fake TV show about fake people like Wysteria lane!!

But the shows supposedly about people's REAL LIFE... it's not really real.

Is it really real SON!?!?!?
