Random AF
So they said they didn’t like Jill Scott. That right there is enough to drop everything
and leave. HOW do you not like Jill
Scott?!?!? There are some things that are negotiable… Jill and Seinfeld are not
2 of those things. If you don’t agree
that Seinfeld was one of the best sitcoms (if not the best… well ok at least
top 5) then we are not compatible. But then when they said oh you like Jill
Scott?!?! That one is a keeper!!
I really do feel sorry for my cubemates when I get in my
singing. I try not to do so loud but
sometimes it just IS!
In addition I feel sorry for them after I had a
milkshake… like today #bad
My mom/roommate has been getting quite cranky and kinda a
bully when she wants a cookie.
I have never liked the term daddy for a man who is not my
daddy. My daddy dead so I’ll just call
you by your name. How about that?!?
You should never ask a question that you really don’t
want to know the answer to. I have asked
a few questions and gotten the answer and I’m like huh… yep I didn’t need to
know that! So now I have to make room in
the vault to hold onto this info I shoulda just not even asked about. What’s the vault? Oh that’s where shit goes that only I need to
know. This is unshareable shit!! This is take to the grave even if I’m water
boarded kinda shit!
So here is something I can share… or rather ask. Am I the onliest person who when I see pics
of celebrities on the news feed on the facebook instantly think they are
dead? Usually it’s their birthday or
they have done something noteworthy but morbid me thing… They DEAD!!
The black security guard was feeling some kinda way when
I was talking a little too friendly to the white security guard. I don’t even know how we became on a 1st
name basis. Probably because he was like
how the heck do you say your name? And
he is nice enough, but it is really just small talk. So relax buddy and don’t be saying hello to
me all loud!
I finally watcher The Wiz LIVE!, which was a revamped
live version of The Wiz play. I thought
it was really good. Although I am in need of hearing the original… not the
movie the original play music. My sister
has the album but I’m not too confident in my ability to get her to let me hold
it. I even have a record player. But of course the YouTube has
everything. I just wanted to hear
Stephanie Mills. Her voice is just
ridiculous!! I mean she can just
sang. And I’m not taking anything away
from that little girl who revamped the role, but Stephanie… just no
comparison. And then more on the YouTube
is Jazmin Sullivan who’s voice at 11 was just like it is now… RIDICULOUS!! She sang home for a school play or
something.
Speaking of music I randomly bought Kenny Lattimore’s new
cd ‘Anatomy of a Love Song’. It’s random
because I just haven’t been swayed to purchase any of his music. Listening to Will Downing’s music podcast I
heard his song…actually was that the same time I heard Lalah? Or wait was it Jill Scott?!? I gotta go back and see. There is one song that I think they are
playing on the radio, but the one on this show was ‘You have my heart’. You know sometimes you hear a song at the
exact moment that you just need to hear it.
So then I bought the cd based on that one song but I have not been
disappointed by the entire cd. He has a
little Lalah Hathaway in there for good measure, but the hilarious feature is
Kelly Price. When she was on that show
RnB Divas it was clear that Chante Moore had problem with her ex Kenny
Lattimore. But you know sometimes I
wonder if some of that was done more for show.
One of the main reason I stopped watching the show because it was just
TMI. I don’t need to know all this petty
stuff about my singers. Anyways, I
really like the CD.
I am not a gadget kinda chick, I never have been but I
just made 2 purchases that might turn me to the dark side LOL. About 2 weeks before thanksgiving, my sister
was talking about the food processor she used.
I was like HOLE UP you have a food processor? I mean I watch the cooking shows and I know
how much they make life easier, but the size of my kitchen has made me rethink
buying extra stuff to put in there. AND
they always have the really high end ones on the show and the kid is not
shelling out $500 for one little piece of equipment. I started doing a little
research, you know at work, and found them on the good Amazon for under $50 so
I got one. I like onions and I cry a
total river whenever I need to cut them.
For thanksgiving I made the stuffing which called for both onions and
celery. I used my new processor and it
took literally seconds what usually felt like it took all evening! On Cyber Monday I was again on the Amazon and
saw a knife sharpener which I probably should have gotten before trying to
carve a turkey but I digress. I read the reviews and this lil sharpener seemed
to be like a good buy. I don’t have high
end cutlery in fact I bought knives at Sam’s club maybe 8 years ago so the
knives have been in dire need of a good sharpen. I used the fine setting and my knife was
sharp as… well a KNIFE!! I don’t even
remember what I cut into but I was VERY satisfied!!
This is about the time of year I do a year in
review. This has truly been a year! One of the main bench marks for me usually is
a job. I started with one and I’m ending
with one. OH JOY! I know the parameters
should be a little higher than that, like did I change my life or the life of
others around me? Did I make a difference? Did I lose 300 pounds and become the next
Iron Woman? Did I invent the next great
gadget? I don’t know something more than
just a damn job. A job aint nothing but
work (LOL). There’s that! And of course as the main caregiver for my
mother just making sure she is ok which… well ok her general ailments really
were the cause of her fall in April, but for a while I felt like I failed
her. Like why did I allow this to
happen? She had a stay in a nursing/rehab facility and while it was nice enough
she left a little worse than she went in… WHEW this is getting dark as
hell. Hmmm… Many lessons were learned. There is always a mix of good and bad staff
at facilities. You always want the best
but when you get the bad you roll with it.
You make sure they know you are present and know what is going on at any
given time and when something goes wrong, tell someone! The place was going through a bit of a
transition but I never allowed anything to fall through the cracks. I brought my mom home and the search for the
caregiving staff was on. Is has been a
challenge since August and I don’t want to say out loud that I think I finally
have a good mix, because something is always bound to change, but am less
stressed about it. I have gotten more
active in my sorority probably more as a release from stuff at home. And then I also found some other releases J well you know not just
THAT but that is always a GREAT release!
But more of just giving myself permission to live my life. This honestly took a long time for me to
do. Asking people/family for help or
not! And then also planning better. I usually plan things out but actually
scheduling time for myself sounds easy, but doing it can be a challenge because
a myriad of excuses that can come up.
There
is more to my year but I just drew a blank… DAMN WORK!! so this is my blog from your
favorite random chick!
