What else is new! I am DVR queen and just now watching the BET Awards. So I felt it prudent to write a blog instead of doing FB updates cause folks would be like what the heck is she talkin about!!?!?
So here are my thought AS I watch cause I got pause, rewind AND fast forward
Mary J. Blige... I think she shoulda had just a few more rehearsals before she came onstage. I want to like her performance, but seeing some of the audience reaction was funny. And since she brought Anita Baker on the stage WHY does Anita here lately look like her hair appointment is the next day. It's too short and the cut is too good for it to look a mess all the damn time. She needs a stylist, not a Marshall's special.
oh I see this gon be a long few hours. I can't even get through this performance LOL. OK so my ignorant thought is I know this is a free for all but can we get some more black children in the front pit areas?!??! Are the Michael Jackson's kids???
DAMN DAMN DAMN... I only got a 1/2 hour of show. My DVR is slipping. So now I'm wondering when in the show MAry J. Blige. So I'll carry on... and then write another one when I see the whole thing
DID those fools just sit down?!?! Jada Kiss and DJ Khalid?? They did their part and sat down on the steps. And rappers well ANYONE with face tattoo's YUCK!!
meanwhile... as I go fix a plate. My kitchen is hot as hades... not sure why i needed baked jerk chicken but it's good so it was worth it
Kevin PHI Kevin LMBAO!!!! Whew... he rehearsed. Too funny. Trey Songz chest looks like a beige grey hound...
da hell is rick Ross doing?!?! He's walking his big ass around to a track and hasn't started rapping yet... oh ok its a live show, could the chick who sang the hook could she have been invited to sing live?!?!? oh good LAWD Rick unzipped his jacket. Just like Kevin Hart just said.. he needs a NO MAN!!!
ok DVR just turned the show off. Maybe it couldn't take it?!?!?
I also just saw Meet the Browns... the movie. Yes late on that one too. So was Angela Bassett's character supposed to be younger?!?! A few times she was referred to as a young mother and Angie pushin 50... so I'm confused. Cora who is Madea's daughter has 2 girls but on the TV show she doesn't. Oh and the whole set up for Madea Goes to Jail movie was sooooooo week. I did enjoy Rick Fox. He ALWAYS makes me smile. And Angela get's the house moves back to Chicago and then moves back to GA and it was redone and everyone including Jenifer Lewis' character welcomed her back. I was just like really? I was funny... the grandiddy part was hilarious. Actually most of the scenes with Brown were funny.
ok that's it...
well ok not EVERYTHING but at least the stuff I think is important!

friday night random shiznit!!
irregardless IS NOT A WORD and I'ma need for you to stop saying that before I strangle you!!
little girls always try to punk their dads but this little girl tonight at marshalls said to her dad "I am going to choose a gift and you can get it for my birthday. BUT if it's cheap you can just get it now" I mean it didn't work but that shit was HELLARIOUS!!!
my road rage is going to catch up to me one day. BIG ass trucks and their big ass drivers YOU DON'T SCARE ME!!! But if I stick out my tongue at you BEWARE... I might be following you like george costanza did the driver with the dude with the broken/casted up middle finger
so the nasty lady at panera bread pushes the designated lemon tongs to the side and reaches her fat hand into the lemon container. squeezes lemon. REACHES HER FAT NASTY HAND BACK IN to get lemon #2 THEN... OH IT GETS WORSE... shakes her now lemony hands into the lemon container where all the 'fresh' lemons are!! I was standing there GLAD I got the Mt Dew and looking at her like YOU HAVE GOT TO BE FREAKING KIDDING ME!!!
to the UPS driver that was kinda sweaty the other day...you were still cute as hell sweat and all. And YES i will be poking my head out of my office to say 'how YOU doin" ERR chance I get!! ***big cheesy grin**
when my cat is in the corner licking her lady parts I say 'HEY ARE YOU LICKING THAT BOOTY???' She really does NOT appreciate that in fact she rolls her eyes and usually storms off in a huff. HEY alls I'm saying if I could lick my booty I would want folks to cheer me on!!
popcorn and wine really are a good pair for a meal
it is 2011 the muscle shirt has run it's course and if you are BOLD enough to walk your corny, out of shape ass in front of me, OH YEAH I'ma say something. And it's gonna be loud ESPECIALLY if I had some wine/vodka/rum. OH AND I know your ass is corny cause cause at the event where all the raven's were supposedly 'ballin' your cheap ass gave me a dollar... I needed for you to make it rain!! LMBAO
it's a divided highway. you are not shunned to the left for all eternity!!! That's what I want to yell at ALLLLLL the drivers on 695 who have made my morning commute 5 minutes longer. but for real I'm not complaining cause the whole commute is only 20 minutes!!
to the dunkin donut dude this morning, 1 ketchup IS NOT enough. I know you are the owner/cashier but if you don't give me more for my delicious (have you tried the hash brown there THEY ARE YUMMY!!!) hash browns I AM GONNA GET OUT THE CAR and it's GON GET UGLY!! #doNOTdenyme
to the moms at the chick fil-a... its only 3 of you and 3 kids... you do NOT need 4 tables. So stop looking at me sideways when I sit at the onliest table you haven't dirtied up. OOOHHH and do the lice check AT HOME!! I do not need to know that 5 kids from billy's daycare had lice and it just occured to you to check his head. not cute OR sanitary at all.
I KNOW IT'S HOT... but calling me every 10 minutes is not going to get the HVAC contractor to your site any faster #chillout before a sista gets nasty
actually I didn't ask you to assess the mood of the current caller. if they called for me, I can handle it!! Trust me this aint my first time to the rodeo and when I finish with this fool on the phone he will be writing a letter of praise about me! I GOT THIS!!!
if your bill is $49.13 and you give me a fifty... THAT IS A BAD TIP AND you should NEVER go out to eat EVER EVER EVER again!!!
dude you ordered a cosmo, it COMES in a martini glass, stop trying act like your manly self can't drink a girly drink. that's what YOU ordered... I'm just saying
I lost all my cool points last week when I DID walk into a glass door. (a few weeks prior I stopped short of walking into the door cause I thought it was automatic) The dude on a date tried not to laugh and the chick was like what happened but, I STARTED LAUGHING cause it was hella funny!! I am in rebuilding mode now. I plan to be at a 1000 by year end.
don't show me your new sandals if you didn't bother to take your crusty feet to the nail salon to get a pedi. I threw up a little when you made me look... feet maintenance is essential
thank you for saying I did a good job... CAUSE I DID!! LOL #notmodest :)
i really don't get the # thing, but I know it's a twtitter thing and I think it makes me look cool. HEY it might help me to #rebuildmycoolpoints.com LOL
which brings me to the Braxtons and that mess of a show they have on air... to be honest I've only seen 1 whole show and only parts of others, but tamar and her husband look SOOOOO mismatched. isITlove.com OR isHEpaid.net?!?!? toni... umm your kids look like your ex, and he wasn't the cute one from Mint Condition. The 3 sisters that did the CD I actually have it and it wasn't bad at all!!! the sister that got preggers when the deal was signed.. either tell toni you WANT to sing back-up, or just let it go. Stop crying the blues about the past!!
I was done 1/2 hour ago but then thought of more stuff... BLACK PEOPLE... please Please PLEASE stop using your tee-shirt/sweatshirt, medallions, side of your car back window of you car as a memorial for someone who either was killed or died of natural causes. It's just soooo not a good look!! I have lost family for all types of reasons, but funeralizing them on a shirt is not the way to go.
ok soo... most of this is stuff I just be thinking as my day goes on. Some are too mean for FB status updates. Other stuff I'm just like WOW did you/I just say/do that?!?!? And then most times I'm just too tired of being online to post stuff or write a new blog. Even right now the girls are free and I am about to go to bed. The restaurant stuff is never ending. ACTUALLY the 9-5 stuff is too... that would be some of my 50eleven jobs. that's it, FOR NOW!!

random CD reviews!!
It's HERE people!! The summer edition of what to buy for you summer listening pleasures. Ok so granted I only bought 3 CD's but all are MUST HAVES! And actually I guess I missed the fall and winter, but you know me... RANDOM!!!!!!!
Let's start with Kelly Price and her aptly named CD KELLY. I love a good soulful churchy voice any day but there is truly something special about Kelly Price. What is that specialness you ask... CONTROL!!! In my opinion she doesn't over sing a song or scream or shout much like your Fantasia's or even I'ma say it Areatha's. She sings the song you get the sultriness when your supposed to, the pain when you're supposed to, the joy and every other emotion you suppose to get YOU GET!!. I was craving this CD and it delivers all the time!! The first release was 'You're not my Daddy' with that sexy lil Stokley from Mint Condition (y'all should know by now I like a man and a gap :) So I'm sure I heard it either on the Steve Harvey or Tom Joyner morning show. And as I drove up 695 I was SCREAMING Literally. LIKE OMG KELLY IS BACK!!! And then I rushed to Amazon.com only to be told I had to pre-order. Then I was like DAMN DAMN DAMN!!! Cause a pre-order means them fools don't know when the CD is coming out and it may get pushed back and I aint got time for all that. Lord I can't find it and you know I'm goggling like crazy. But there was an award show and a bunch of black female artist did a tribute to I FOUND IT!!! Ok so.. Kelly was first and it gave me chills!! Actually her and Lalah were the onliest ones who did justice to the song/tribute. IN FACT since Lalah is my BFF I had a post that said That is HOW you DO IT!! Ok wait... Lalah did another tribute on another show LOL ANYWAYS... Kelly just has a tremendous amount of freaking control!! And I love her CD. Now I know she said on the back cover in her thank yous that she is still with her hubby of like forever years, but she either has some good ass writers or he really put her through some shit over the years. I do know he has a child with some other woman right when they were about to get married, and she has pretty much raised the child as her own. So my favorite song... I don't know that I have a favorite song, but 'Tired' and 'I'm Sorry' they go THERE!! You may not want to be driving as I was when listening cause I got all kinds of misty eyed. When sista gurl says she's even tired of going to church... YOU FEEL it!! 'Himaholic' sometimes you are overly invested in a man because well JUST BECAUSE!! Her voice is so perfectly matched with Stokely who by the way wears a tight ass leather shirt in the video. But it's aiight... he soo could get it LOL. She does so many nods to the women and music of the past, including Aretha and Gladys. Just so freaking Soulful. This CD is in constant rotation in the 03 Corolla!!
OK... whew
Anthony David - As Above So Below.
I don't know what he did to be less indy, but he is being played way more often on HUR and 95.9 so it's alllll good!! The first time I heard him was at (the now defunct) Jazzy Summer nights in Baltimore several years ago. First song 'YES' LEt me find that right quick. It was just him and the guitar and I was in love instantly!! Live music can do something to me. And in my seat to the left of the stage in my blue fold up chair. I think I looked around like... IS THIS FOOL SINGING TO ME!?!?!? I'm getting chills now thinking about it. SO naturally after I had to go get the CD and get it signed AND he is not hard on the eye at all!! So the love stuck LOL. So fast forward to this CD. He is just an awesome song writer. In 'Backstreet' the lyric he wrote about a gun... it's just the thing to separate your soul from your body... WHO would think to write that?? now he did a few teasers on FB 'Let me In' was the 1st song I heard followed soon after with '4evermore' with Alegebra. Which I got a lil salty cause when artist releases songs on FB that means it may get pushed back OR not released at all. But I went to a listening party and knew it would be good... well I KNEW it would be good not having gone to the listening party. I think his first CD was the purest, more him and the guitar, as the CD's progress they get a little more produced and kinda radio friendly. But he still has a great voice and this is a must have TRUST!! "GetAround' he is trying to tell the woman that he hasn't be all that faithful in past relationships, but when he says ...SHAWTY I GET AROUND!!! I love that line. If you are a recipient of my 'MIXTAPES' the title song will be on the next one. 'As Above So Below' puts me in a calm mood, so just what I need when dealing with the pilgrims (as my friend Foxxy would say LOL). And then 'Girlfriend' uuuhhh alls I got to say about that song is SEX ROBOTS!!
Now the 3rd CD in this random review is Mint Condition - uuummm because the 2 afore mentioned CD's are in constant rotation I can honestly say I have no idea if it is good or bad... BUT I will say that I am a Mint Condition fan and even though I wasn't really feeling E-Life (their last CD) and The Mint Factory is till probably my favorite CD, aw man I might hafta pull that CD out. YEAH. SOOOOOooooo we are gonna go with a 'get-it-cause-you're-a-fan' rationale for their newest CD. And we know Stokley is sexy and actually the WHOLE band looks sexy on the cover. 'I'm not you're Daddy' is on this CD too.
RUN DON'T WALK to your nearest CD store or online outlet to get these CD's!!! Here's what I looking forward to Lalah... cause she is always getting ret to come out with something. Rahsaan... cause I HOPE he is getting ret to come out with something. Ledisi, she really IS getting ret to come out with a CD. Algebra Blesset I hope she got her deal done so she can come out with something. 1 CD is not enough. Jill Scott which I wish she would do that tour agian with Eryka Badu and Queen LAtifah. I'm on Soul Tracks now. They do some good reviews. And Ke Ke Wyatt is on the front 'page'. She did a few duets with Avant back in the early 2000's. Then she stabbed her husband or something crazy.. anyway she seems to be back. Soul Bounce is another site that has some good stuff on it.
Let's start with Kelly Price and her aptly named CD KELLY. I love a good soulful churchy voice any day but there is truly something special about Kelly Price. What is that specialness you ask...

Here’s what I hate…
• auto correct cause hey sometimes the word was meant to be misspelled or maybe I needed to do all lowercase.
• People who yell at me when it’s not my damn fault. No I can’t read you mind soooooo nope I didn’t realize how important it was
• People who hold grudges or stay angry. Life is too short and if you all your energy to go into being mad at me then hey… do you
• Stupid people ACTUALLY what I hate is the fact that I try to give people the benefit of the doubt, but when you prove to me over and over and OVER that your brains are full of straw then please stop wasting my time by talking to me
• Drama for no reason. Yes drama does have its time and place, but all the freaking time?!?! NO Too exhausting
Here’s what I love...
• My cat waiting pawing for my attention at the window when I walk up to my house and then ignoring me when I actually open up the door
• The color purple, because I am NOT tryna piss God off!!! There is this median I pass that has about 3 different purple flowers and it just so BEA-U-TI-FUL!!!
• The fact that I still only have about 5 faithful followers LOL
• I need a 4th thing to even it out, but off the cuff I can’t think of one. I could just keep typing. I mean my blog, my rules. So this bullet would just not really be just a quick note of reference but rather an actual blog… OH WAIT I GOT ONE!!
• That it is spring. Cool on some days warm/hot on others. But I love this time of year
• That I can admit that I’m a QVC junkie… YES I did buy TSV (that would be today’s special value:) last Saturday AND I did easy pay and I’ll do it again dammit!! And I look pretty cute today with my Mally make-up!!

I'm IN!!!
ok maybe for a minute cause my new job has a helluva firewall... but y'all know me, I always know a way around. Random Chick WILL be heard.
**loud sigh**
Not too sure what I have to say. It's been so bottled up. I just be thinking my random thoughts and then go on about my biz.
I have a good handle on my 50elven jobs. AND (drum roll please) I actually am liking both of my jobs. It has been a minute a long LONG minute since I have just LIKED my job. I was even telling the little girl here (alright ok... she is a grown ass woman, but some of her decisions make me think of a little girl) that even when I was making the big bucks, I just wasn't happy. I think it is easy to say do what you love and find your true passion in life when, mortgage/rent, BGE, Verizon, cable and whatever else bills you got aren't breathing down your neck. Mental note... call Verszon so they don't turn ya shit off!! Like I think it's easy for Oprah to say do only what you love, she's a freaking BILLIONAIRE so... you know easy. Although, and I can't be 100% sure, but I think she did find her passion early in life and knew what to do with it early on. So folks are still just searching and have an uneasyness all their life. There is this song by N'Dambi called 'Imatator' now it's about a couple who they just got comfortable with the status quo but I think most people just get comfortable with mediocrity, being average, or not pursuing their dream because its easy to be comfortable. And the woamn wants out!! "You're so comfortable with the stop we made/to happy now/ with your/ sun in the shade! I hope you find that one thing ONE thing/ that makes you happy/ cause it can't be me!" Now normally I would post a lil link, but I have every expectation that I'ma be shut down any minute now LOL
In general right now I have such a peace of mind! And to be honest NO ONE can bring me down. I don't have time or the drama and 1 of the women (the lead tweedle... short for tweedle dumb) is so dramatic for no good damn reason. I just looked at her yesterday and thought how sad she truly must be. And all I can do is pray for her cause I will not be brought down by her foolishness. ACTUALLY at the other job there is this other dude who I think just needs a hug, he seems so miserable all the time. His efforts to 'tell me off' were thwarted when I kinda started laughing at him. But again folks hold on to sooo much stuff and instead of letting go and healing, they hold onto whatever IT is and allow cancers to grow.
So that's it on the 'job' front. There is no 'love life' to speak of but I am accepting applications. I am getting to old to be the 'jump off' LMBAO. And Baltimore is so small sharing is inevitable. I need to head to Philly or Jersey or somewhere that is NOT here to find my prince charming.
The house is doing well. As much as I don't want to sound racist, I really do need to go to one of them spots and hire a few hispanics to do some yard work and work around the house. But I'm too scared. Yet another reason why I need a renta-husband or something like that.
It is show-ya-toes season and if you are rocking some ugly toes don't be offended if I throw up on your feet!!!
OKAY that should do it for now!
**loud sigh**
Not too sure what I have to say. It's been so bottled up. I just be thinking my random thoughts and then go on about my biz.
I have a good handle on my 50elven jobs. AND (drum roll please) I actually am liking both of my jobs. It has been a minute a long LONG minute since I have just LIKED my job. I was even telling the little girl here (alright ok... she is a grown ass woman, but some of her decisions make me think of a little girl) that even when I was making the big bucks, I just wasn't happy. I think it is easy to say do what you love and find your true passion in life when, mortgage/rent, BGE, Verizon, cable and whatever else bills you got aren't breathing down your neck.

general random **SPRING EDITION**
My new most favorite Oprah quote is ‘that is the most craziest ass thing’!!! She said it on one of those behind the scene shows and it is just so funny to me cause soooo many thing are the craziest ass things. Like for instance, how do you sign a contract and NOT read it and then when it comes back you’re like OH WAIT THAT WAS WRONG!!! Or I keep wearing these pants that have no button and are slightly high watery… yet I keep wearing them like they are brand new!! See CRAZIEST ASS THING!!
I have been having an attack of the pet peeves lately. For so long so many thing have just ceased to bother me as much as they used to but these little suckers are rearing their ugly head. Like the whole fax and printer thing… No I actually didn’t ask you to get those papers for me SO LEAVE THEM THERE!! They aren’t bothering you and yes I DO have a system so WTF are you bothering them?!?!? Yeah I know it’s petty, I’ll own that but it just bugs me soooooooo much. And let me finish asking my question so you can answer what I ask you instead of assuming what you think I’m about to say. It’s called active listening folks, it’s only gonna take me 5 more seconds and I need for you to digest what I say AND THEN provide a good answer for me. There are really only a few folks that know me well enough to know what I’m thinking or about to say AND you aint one of them so just be patient and listen to the damn question. Colored paperclips are just dumb! We are adults and they just feel so middle school… like EEWW look what I got to match my trapper keeper (LMBAO). Just give me a regular smooth silver paperclips that actually CLIP what I need clipping. Along the lines of dumbness… I just don’t get the whole Keurig craze. Ok yeah I get it… you can make one cup of coffee or tea or hot chocolate, but I still think it’s dumb and I am mad there is a whole wall dedicated to k-cups at the Bed Bath and Beyond. A pack of gum or mints can be your best friend. Bad breath is just wrong on so many levels and people should take care not to be in that situation. And should you feel the need to get right up in my face, make sure your shit is right!! I mean DAMN!!!!
I know for sure… oh ok another Oprah-ism… What I know for sure is that everything that happened in my life has shaped me and molded me in ways that I am just now realizing the impact. It would have been nice to know at age 17 when I went to college what the hell I wanted to do, but I didn’t. Now I’m not saying my degree is worthless I have used it in many capacities. But I sometimes wish I knew I wanted to be a doctor specializing in rare diseases, or a 10th grade Art teacher, or you know just something specific. But I think my flailings have taught me a lot. One of the more important lessons Ive learned is I need to feel useful. It is when I start my downward decent when I feel like no one needs me or wants my opinion or knowledge which explains why I been err… ‘downsized’ a few times and/or chose to leave some other places. It just creates stress in my life to not be of valuable. And I know that’s not important to some. But I now know it is to me!

general random 073...
ok so it's been a minute and we all know I have some much to just LET OUT!! And don't feel bad if you can't keep up. It's OK it's all random.
so here goes...
If what you have on looks like something you would wear to the club, then it is probably not a good idea to wear to church. Now don't get me wrong the Lord wants you to come as you are. But I am still of the very old fashion mindset that you give the Lord your best! Not that tight outfit that you have to constantly pull down; and in the case of men, pants you gotta pull up.
I really don't have a problem with weaves per se, but if you gonna rock it ROCK IT!! And if you can't afford the upkeep then go get a wig or something. It was the same woman at church who had some bad weave in her hair AND some extensions in the baby (little girl had to be about 3 or 4) in like every other braid... it was just bad and I wanted to just say NO!!!
I am officially the last person to see Titanic. AND OMG WHAT A GOOD MOVIE!! I mean I heard all the comedians at the time it came out say yeah it's 3 hours long and you know the outcome, yadda yadda yadda. And I really never wanted to carve out 3 hours of my life to watch it. But for some recent restless night I started watching it and then my trusty DVR did the rest. It was on like TBS or TNT one of those stations. What is always so fascinating to me is that people have been having sex, and falling in love, and having their heart broken, FOREVER. Just cause she's a little old lady does not mean she didn't get her swerve on back in the day. There was this segment on the news where some random woman had passed away and the son was saying how all his mother did was take care of him and she didn't date or anything. And I thought THAT'S WHAT YOU THINK!!! She might not have let you see it, and she very well may not have done anything, but I certainly think parents (especially mothers) have a way of making you think the only 1 time they ever had sex was when they had you. And if you have sibling then add that amount of times and that's it. I still cant figure out why the little old lady threw the necklace overboard though.
OH I also just saw Social Network, about the dude(s) who started Facebook. I was really feeling inadequate as a human being to know that this guy had this thought and created this THING that is now a global phenomenon. I mean I don't even know anyone who even goes on Myspace anymore and I never even heard of the other social network they were talking about. But I do know everyone and thing has a Facebook page AND a twitter page. I keep trying to understand the twitter, and I joined but I just can't figure it out so I just leave it alone. What it also makes me think is that we are just to reliant on the internet, and just too connected. My touch screen phone stopped allowing me to touch it and just froze one day so I had to go to the Verizon store (which was a bad customer service experience yet again) to get a new phone. The little dude with the swoopy hair tried to convince me to just get the phone online. Which not that I needed it right away, but then I would still have to come to the store again to transfer my numbers and I just did not feel like havin to do that. So I just bought the phone and am now STILL waiting for my 50 buck rebate. wait what was my point? OH YEAH my point is that I just wanted a phone to call and text and maybe take a picture. I don't need to check email, tweet, or even write my blog, I just wanted a phone to use as a PHONE!! I understand and can appreciate the convenience of all those extras, but I just don't want to be that plugged in. Everyone is going out to get an iPhone or iPad or a 4G phone and I think all this technology makes it that much harder for people to communicate in person. OH and if you are under... well I used to say 16, but now I'll say 13 or 14 because times, they are a changing; ok so if you are under 13 WHY does you little ass need a phone?!?! And then I see kids walking around texting each other and I want to say put those damn phones away and TALK to each other!!! That's my 2 cents on an already tense subject.
I abhor bad customer service ABHOR IT!! So today I am in Pier One. There are 3 cashiers standing there and the 1 helping the lady ahead of me goes to get something for the lady. So I say 'is this the only cash register open?' and the lady says 'oh I'm sorry she had to go get something for me.' So I say 'oh you're fine, don't worry about it'. Now the 1 cashier was taping up some big glass object but the other 1 was doing random shit behind the counter and they both look at me like I am clearly speaking a regional dialect of some crazy language. So the cashier finishes up and then proceeds to ignore me, so the dude cashier is like 'OH I can help you!' And then I say 'so I guess when I asked the question you didn't hear me?' and then he is like 'oohh uuhh uhhh' I'm like WHATEVER just ring it up. Now I know you're thinking I must have been getting something major to be this annoyed?!?! WELL it was!! I finally found a funnel small enough so I can fill up my flask and it was a whooping 50 cents (LMBAO) yeah I know. I KNOW!! So he rings up my purchase (which come to a whooping 53 cents) and then had the gall to ask if I wanted a bag; HELL YES I WANT A BAG!!! If I was a scrupless person I would stuck that thing in my pocket and kept it moving, but I have a conscience and going to jail for me has to be worth it; 53 cents aint worth it.
I gave blood on Saturday and am feeling some kinda way about looking up the lil dude who took my blood on Facebook. First of all I KNEW he was young, but he was 'nephew young' and I just can't go there, but he did smell good!! But what's bad is he looked like a guy I dated which probably why I thought he was cute and it's also a reason I kept looking at this other guy at church who is SO very married and that is so NOT my thing. I'm not sure what the moral of this story is : /
Stink bugs do stink and I am NOT looking forward to a season of those SOB's invading my house.
I'm really glad my cat decided to like the different version of Meow Mix that I recently bought her. She is now eating it like it is the most delicious thing in the world. I think after our talk... that is me telling her she needs to go ahead and like the damn food cause mommy can't afford no new food, she got the hint and got on board!
Someone needs to tell Oprah a few crest white strips are not a bad idea. Her teeth are looking a lil yellowy. When Winona Judd was on her show, her teeth were EXTRA white against her orange skin and bright fluorescent red hair. Speaking of which I need to go put my dose of strips on...
so here goes...
