About my hottie, well.... errr....ummm, somebody's hottie!

As you may or may not know it is cold as hell here.  I don't know how many females I've seen with no hat, no boots, and no gloves.  Just to give you some type of idea of just how cold it is, last week when I left the house, it was -5 degrees. ( and that is without the wind chill factor which would make it seem as if it were about 20 below) These chicks have got to know that it is too dayum cold outside to try to be cute.  I know they were freezing there asses off. Hell, I left the house looking like the abominable snow woman and I was still cold but I digress, this is supposed to be about the hottie.

 After work, I was having this craving for tacos.  I had been  thinking about them all day at work( Yes, these tacos are just that good, and I'm not particularly a taco person) so when I got off, I stop by this little "hood " spot and was surprised to see that as cold as it was out, nukkas was still huggin' the block.  Anyway, I'm trying to find a parking spot close to the restaurant and I see dudes just standing in front of the place near the door, but those tacos were calling my name so its whatever.  Anyway,  I m walking to the place and as I'm walking one of the guys says "Dayum mama , You got some pretty eyes,  a nigga can get lost in them muhfuccas". I said "Thank You, I think" and kept on stepping.  When I got to the door, someone opened it for me, I said thanks and that was that. I really didn't pay to much attention to them because dudes on the block in the cold 24-7 can't do a dayum thing for me.  I'm at the counter ordering and  dude follows me in and says "So,  you got a man, You got a name?"  I said "Excuse me but I'm trying to order, thank you" and he started laughing and says "Oh my bad."  I finished ordering and proceeded to move to the side with my back still turned to the guy hoping he would get the hint that I did not want to be bothered. I was cold, tired, and hungry and with me, those things could equal bitch if I'm rubbed the wrong way.  Anyway, he kept  trying to make conversation asking me if I had a name and I said "I do" then he asked me if I had a man, I must admit, dude was persistent because I know I would not be trying to talk to someone who kept their back turned to me.  My phone started ringing so I reached in my pocket to answer it and my keys fell out.  Dude bent down to pick them up to hand them to me and I turn around to thank him and whooo Lawd. This man was gorgeous!  My nipples even stood up and saluted him!  I mean he had on a hat and a hoodie so the only things that were really visible  to me were his eyes ( albeit through sunglasses) and his mouth.  He had the most beautiful smile I've ever seen and that's no lie.  Pretty teeth, buttery soft skin,( if I had  touched him I bet it would've felt like it)  mustache and goatee and just.... Umm Ummm Ummmm Dayum! I couldn't do anything but stare at him and I wouldn't be surprised if my mouth was hanging open while I was doing it.  Somehow, I managed to thank him for picking up my keys and he just stood there and grinned. He  told me his name and I told him mine and then he asked for my number.  I just totally forgot about the phone call that I was on,   hell that heffa could hold on indefinitely.  I said, how about you give me yours and I'll call you.  He laughed again and said you're a difficult one but okay.  He asked me for some paper to write it on  and I had none so he ended up writing it on a 20 dollar bill.  Lol I had to laugh when he handed it over but he said that was the only paper he had.  I guess that I was  supposed  to be impressed but if he wanted to impress me he could've pulled out about 50  more of them twenties and then I may have  possibly been impressed.  Anyway, this man so had me in a  trance that I wasn't even aware that they called my number to pick up my order.  I excused myself, picked up my order and then he walked me to my car amidst whistles and whoops from his boys.  I thanked him, gave him a smile and a wave and pulled off.  I didn't look back although it took everything in me not to get one more glimpse of that man's beautiful smile.  When I made it home, reality started to sink in.  As much as I love the thug swagger, I simply cannot do the thug thing .  I'm getting too old for that shyt  no matter how attractive he may have been .   With eternal longing and remorse, I think  that it's best that I  erase the man and the number from my memory.  Well, on second thought what can one phone call possibly hurt  I mean really,  This man had my undivided attention once I decided to give him mine and I am so itching to test the waters even though I know he is so not good for me.

Lawd A'mercy

This morning I decided to stop at McDonald's to get some breakfast and coffee since I didn't have time to make some this morning.  Anyway,   I decided to go inside and fore go the drive thru which is something that I never do.  Anyway, I'm ordering my coffee with all of my 8 creams and sugars.   I taste it and It isn't to my liking , so I ask the girl if she put in my 8 creams and 8 sugars and she tells me yes,  I taste it again after stirring it up and I tell her that she did not.  She then gives me some additional sugars (bitch!  if I wanted to add sugar myself I wouldn't have bothered to go through my 8 creams and 8 sugars spiels) but anyway, I move over to the side so that I can fix up my coffee the right way.   Two older gentleman come into the place and instead of the one  going up to the empty register( no line, no waiting) to place his order, he decides to stand behind me off to the right.  Now mind you, I'm over to the side fixing my coffee and he is behind me yelling that he needs water.  Now I was always taught to respect my elders and the fact that he was being loud in my ear wasn't the main problem that I had with him.  Oh, it was a problem but I  would have been willing to overlook that if it hadn't been for the fact that  every time this man opened up his mouth, I smelled hot garbage.  I mean his breath STANK! I tried to play it off and hold my breath a bit while covering up my coffee with the quickness because I didn't want that funk to invade my drink.  Anyway, I'm scrunching up my face trying to avoid the smell until I just could not take it any more.  I turned around and said "Excuse me but would you mind moving  over a bit?"  and he just looked at me and said  "For what?"   I said not only are you yelling in my ear but you are breathing all over my coffee. He moved over but I could tell that he was none too happy about it.    I tried to hold out as long as I could, I really did, but that breath smelled like straight up stank!    I told my co-worker and she said "Girl I told you to carry those mints with you. If you had done what I said, then you could have given him one or two."  My co-worker is a nut. That woman keeps me giggling on the regular. What am I going to do when this special project is over because I am going to surely miss her and her funny stories.  She also said that and I quote"You know sometimes old  people can't satisfy a woman the way they should so they might need to taste IT a little bit"  so they get down there and taste it and then don't brush their teeth afterwards. breath be smelling like Badussy, boody, ass and pussy!"  She and I both burst out laughing and I know people were looking at us like what the hell has gotten into them. On a new note, I met a little hottie last night but I can't type about that just now as I have work to do and me on the internet is not being productive.

We aren't family!

What the hell is going on here?   I texted an ex  just to say "Happy New Year" a few days after New Years.  He texted me back and we went back and forth for a few messages until I stopped responding.  Anyway,  He and I haven't been together in years but we talk intermittently from time to time.  Anyway  A few days after I stop texting him, he calls me.  I was busy at the moment so I couldn't talk to him and said I would phone him back.  Well fast forward to  this weekend .....I still haven't called him back yet but he left a message on my voice mail saying that his mom and sister were in town, he also left their number just in case I wanted to call them.  What in the world would make him think that I wanted to call his mama and sister? We were never cool like that.  Not even when we lived together.  Now I was cordial to them but not in a  just call them out the blue and say wassup type of way.  I was closer to his grandmother than I was his mom or his sister , well his sis was much younger than me so all I would say to her is hi and bye.  Besides I don't want to be stuck meeting up and possibly entertaining them if I did decide to call.  Ahhh well,  He left the message two days ago and due to the fact that I rarely , if ever, check my messages on my home phone,  I have a good excuse for not calling them while they're in town.  I'm just glad he didn't give them my number so they can call me!

What did I get myself into?

Only a few more hours and I am out of this joint. I'm supposed to be going out on a "blind" date tonight . I don' know why I let Jazz talk me into this shit because she and I both know that I don't do blind dates. I'm really easy to read and if I'm not feeling dude then he will definitely know it. Not because I'll be blatantly rude or anything like that but because it is extremely difficult for me to feign interest when I'm obviously not. The only reason I agreed to go is because Jazz has met "the finest, most perfect guy ever" *insert eye roll here* because she meets the "finest, most perfectest guy ever" damn near monthly but anyway, she says that they haven't really talked much and he asked her out. Jazzy can be overly cautious( which is a good thing in this day and age) so she told him that she would be bringing a friend and asked if he had a friend and of course he does, what negro doesn't have boys? I told Jazz that I will be driving myself there because I will not be left ass out if she ends up feeling dude a little too much and decides to hang out with him or stay the night with him. Nahhh baby, I will not be stuck depending on said blind date to take me home.. so meet them there , I shall! I really don't have any expectations because like I said before, I'm not into the blind date thing. Really it's just two friends dragging their two friends on a date with them because they fear being alone together. So far the plan is dinner and dancing which I politely informed her isn't such a good idea. I told her to keep it simple and earlier in the day. That way if dude isn't the prince she believes he will be she won't be stuck with him for too long. She's trying to act like she doesn't know wassup!! She knows the rules, when in doubt.....do coffee. Keep it safe and short! *sigh* It's crappy outside ...rainy, dreary, dull and I'm not really in the mood to go anywhere but I'll try the make the best out of it. If all else fails, at least I will be getting my drink on!!!!

Wanna go all night? Well do ya?

My girl's and I were talking about something I heard on the Steve Harvey Morning show. One of them said that a woman really doesn't want a man who can go on for hours and hours during sex. I started thinking about it and while I have made my fair share of jokes about the infamous "minute man" (having experienced a few episodes where it took me longer to take off my panties than it did for him to cum), I realized that I really don't want a man that can go for hours and hours. Aside from the fact that my shit would be rubbed raw, chaffed and I would be walking bowlegged, If it's taking me that long to cum, then I am definitely not opposed to some help in getting me there whether it be fingers, tongue, or what have you. I am also not opposed to giving out directions, and instructions as needed. Long gone are the days where I fake orgasms tryng to boost up a nukkas ego, If you don't know what you're doing and aren't willing to take instructions and directions, get the hell up and OUT! I'm not trying to fuck for 3 and 4 hours and I know I am not the only one. I'm not multiorgasmic... well as much as I'd like to, I haven't had that "Nirvanaesque" experience of being able to cum more than once during the act..YET. Besides, I'm also a selfish lover. With me it is never really "all about you" unless I'm feeling especially generous that day. I mean, I will work hard to get you there up until it's my time, but my main concern is myself and if it just so happens that I get mine before you get yours. I feel sorry for ya! An orgasm for me is a sure fire sedative and most likely after I achieve one, I will be washing myself up and then rolling my ass on over to get some sleep. I have yet to find the man that would make me want to skip my happy ass in to the kitchen and make ham sandwiches and shyt. Not to say that he isn't out there but I just have't met him yet. Maybe 2008...huh?

Happy New Year !

I've just returned from visiting family for the Holidays and I want to just let it be known that I am not at all happy to be home. After my little jaunt, I am seriously considering moving back to my hometown. I miss my peoples ya'll I MISS THEM!!!!!! While I didn't really do much ....Yes, you heard right, No partying for ya girl while she was there, I still had a fabulous time. Family will definitely do that for you! So now I'm back here just going through the motions.

I did drag Miko to the mall with me upon my return to get my brows threaded which was an experience in and of itself. Now I had been thinking about getting them done for a while, so I inquired as to the level of pain involved with this process. I was told that it hurts less than waxing and is better because it doesn't involve ripping off a layer of skin as does with waxing. Anyway, I told the chick that I would be back. Two weeks later I head on back to get it done.

I sit in the chair and she is doing something to my brows and I'm pleasantly surprised because I am feeling No pain. Come to find out she was just brushing them or whatever to get them the way she wanted them before she started threading. Well I braced myself (as I do when I get waxed) but lawd. let me tell you all that I was not ready for what I felt. That shit hurt like hell! Like HELL I tell ya. Anyway, My eyes were watering so bad that passersby thought I was crying. The chick threading me asked if this was my first time and I said yes, ya'll lied to me when I asked about the pain. This shit hurts like hell and about 5 times worse than waxing! Anyway, she was nice enough to hand me a Kleenex so that I can dab at the water flowing from my eyes and then she handed me a mirror. I must admit, My brows look fabulous and she did them to my specifications: no thinning, no shaping, just clean them up a bit!. I do plan to have this done again and I'm hoping that the more I have it done, the less pain I feel. Miko just stood there laughing at my comments and sounds but her punk ass decided not to get hers done. I don't understand why because this chick gets bikini waxes, You hear me? BIKINI WAXES, where they get all up in every nook and cranny of the cooch and the booty but the brows are too much for her? I told her I would contemplate getting a Brazilian but if the pain is anything like the brows, and I imagine it wouldd be since my goodies are sensitive, then as of now, I'm thinking HELL NO!!

May the desires f you hearts be fulfilled in '08! Happy New Year!

Such a procrastinator I am.

I don't know why I always wait until the last minute to do my shopping knowing I'm not going to be able to find what I want. Well actually, I really didn't have a problem finding the things that I wanted to get, the problem lies in the fact that I didn't know what to get. I picked up a few things that I thought would be good. I'll include gift receipts(yes, one is a notorious gift returner, never likes anything that I pick out) and be done with it! On another note, I have a cold out of this world. I don't know where or how I got it. it just crept up on me out of no where. One day I'm fine and the next, I'm struglling to breathe due to the stuffiness of my nasal passages. Thank God for my Afrin! It has been my saving grace since this thing happened I've even stooped so low as to pull out the old Robitussin in an attempt to rid myself of this unwanted cold which hasn't really done anything as far as I can tell.. Guess I'm going to just have to let the thing run it's course. I hope it's soon because I have a plane to catch on the 27th and I want to be, no I NEED to be at 100% for my trip!

Back to blogging

Since the summer has, way to rapidly I might add, come to an end, I'm back to blogging. I've had a blast this summer, been down to Florida and Atlanta, as well as Aruba and loved every minute of it. I went to a nice family reunion picnic last night. It was actually one of my mom's friend's family but since I've been around them since I was a wee lass,I decided to attend. I had a ball, good food, good, music and good drinks. The crowd was mostly older but I love oldies music as well as talking to older adults. I find them interesting and I love to hear their tales of "back in the day". Anyway, I spent the evening sipping on Coronas, Blue Hawaians, coolers, doing the cleveleand and cupid shuffles, talking, reminiscing, and laughing. T'was truly a great time BUT( you know there had to be a BUT) why did some people who were too damned old to be puffing on a spliff(according to my mom) decide to light up mid picnic in the presence of everyone? There were way too many kids around for them to be getting blowed and acting loud and ghetto out in public like that. They could've taken a walk or gone to the alley or did anything other than light up around folk. There was also this lady who looked to be about late 40's or 50/s whose only goal,I believe, last night was trying to get fucked. she was bumping, grinding, humping and doing everything. She even fell on the floor in an attempt to "drop it" a few times, dayum shame. Anyway, thats how I spent my saturday night, how about you?

Sheee's back( but for how long, who knows)

Yes, I have truly missed posting but you know how it is sometimes. First, I got caught up in Spring fever and now I've got summer fever. we have been spoiled with such nice weather lately I've been on the go just enjoying it. In this city the weather is crazy so although it's 88 today, no one would be surprised if we had snow tomorrow so I've got to get out and about ya know? I was at the gym this morning and I cannot understand why females put on make-up (I'm talking full face make-up, foundation, eye shadow, the whole nine) just to go to the gym and sweat it off. Kind of defeats the purpose don't you think? I was looking at this chick today who works out with her FAT man (he trains her, another of my pet peeves but today it's all about the make-up ) She comes in with her hair in a ponytail but when she hits the floor her hair (weave) is loose and curled. She has on eyeliner, shadow, powder that doesn't match her complexion and lipstick(lips outlined with black eyeliner). She was standing in front of me while I was on the elliptical and It took everything within me to not laugh at her. She looked ridiculous! Anyway, I so wish I had my celly and I most certainly would've tried to sneak in a pic. Anyway, it really isn't any of my business what the next chick decides to do but that just puzzled me. I know that I go to the gym to workout (gotta keep it tight and looking right) and I know that sometimes I can work up a serious sweat and wearing make-up just doesn't make sense. (can't possibly be good for the skin either) I also don't wear too much make-up if any at all so that could be why I find it so puzzling. I may wear a little clear mascara, some lip gloss, and occasionally eyeliner but most of the time I am fresh faced. (with the exception of the lips) With me, what you see is what you get. I am about to go to a book club discussion so I will have to end this here. ciao!

The girl just knows these things

Today was my last day with the co-worker and just like I knew he would, he asked me out (of course he did it in a round -a-bout way but he did it never-the-less). The old dude kept coming into my office (conveniently when my co-worker was gone) saying that he was going to miss me and things. He asked me if I would keep in contact (by the way, he is 62 years old) I told him that I do email but I DON"T do phone. lol He asked me for my email address and I gave it to him only because I figured I wouldn't have to see him ever again after that) Anyway, he is asking me about going out to dinner and I can't remember exactly what I said but I do remember him saying "What's the matter? You're not interested?" I was thinking FINALLY, a chance to let him know so I said NO, I'm not and then this fucker had the nerve to say you will be. lol I said you're confident huh? And he said Definitely, I will change your mind and I won't be a pest about it. He gave me his email addy, home phone, cell phone, work phone, etc lol and of course I have no intention of using them. He said if he emails me and I don't respond, I will never hear from him again, so far so good! Now back to my co-worker. It was getting close to 5 (which is the time we get off but we had to stay and clean up our workspace since we wouldn't be returning back to that particular location) Now let me backtrack. Remember when I said he kept talking about his impending birthday. Well, I decided that because I didn't want him to ask me out, I would just chill out with my friendly, bubbly personality and tone it down a bit. I became semi quiet and really not too talkative with him. We still watched movies and things but I was extrememly reserved the 2 days prior to his birthday and the day after, so much so that he felt the need to ask me what was wrong with me. I also didn't acknowledge his birthday which I know was kind of rude and mean and I did regret this later. He never mentioned it so neither did I. About two days after his birthday, I was back to my old self. He kept saying that I was feisty(about 5 times in a row) and then kept taking our conversation to a personal level. like asking me have I ever cheated on a boyfriend and all kind of things that were absolutely none of his business. Now fast forward to the last day, end of work day and he says he is going to go home and get some rest and then he reaches over, rubs my thigh , squeezes it a bit and says "then we are going to go out" lol. The approach could use some work but I figured he would wait until the last day to make his move. I said that I don't go out and he said "I know, I'm not talking about to a club but to a little jazz spot or somwhere where you can drink a little bit and get your nod on". I said no that's alright and then he said that he didn't know anything about me except for my first and last name and he was going to go home and google me to get my number. Lol We'll see, We'll see! OOH I forgot to mention that he dressed up too. Had his little dress shoes and socks, slacks and leather sportscoat. ( up until today he was a jeans and sweats type of dude) I kept looking at him and he is an attractive dude. Bowlegged (and I LOVVVEEE me some bowlegs) I don't know what it was about him though that didn't do it for me. Hes not an ugly guy at all (rather nice looking and even moreso from the back!) Anyway, we were interrupted once again and I didn't give him an opportunity to bring the convo back up. After I said that I didn't go out he also got quiet and surprisingly didn't have much to say to me after that. Oh well, At least it was our last day together.

What am I going to do with these dayum men. I told ya'll about the old dude and now I have a feeling that my c0-worker ( the one who replaced first one) wants to ask me out. I think he is just trying to get up enough nerve to do it and I really hope that is not the case. We have a lot of down time between workshops so to pass the time we either play games on line or watch movies. We get along really great and aside from him telling me that he thought the old dude found me extremely attractive he really hadn't said much else but the past few days, he has been hinting around alot. The old guy came in today and he really didn't say much other than how is everything going. When he left my co-worker said "Now he just says hi and bye huh?" I said yeah, and that's how I like it. Then he said that he thinks he makes him uncomfortable which is why he keeps it brief when he is there. I said "Oh, he's uncomfortale when you're here" and he said "Yeah, he doesn't like me too much." I said "He likes you just fine." But anyway either his first or second day there, he told me his birthday was coming up. I asked him what he was doing and he said the same as last year, nothing. Me and by big ass mouth said you have to go out on your birthday and celebrate and he said it's just another day to him. I kept on and on so now for the past few days he has said something to the effect that he is trying to find something to do for his birthday and I would change the subject before he got to it good. Today he says he thinks he is going to check out this new restaurant that serves African food. I asked him if he like African food and he said he never tried it. I said I know they eat FuFu but I tend to stick to the things I know and then he said that's right, you like pasta. Then he says you don't go out alot do you and I said No. (lol knowing my ass goes out too much) He then asks when is the last time that I been out. I'm thinking last night but I plan to tell him it's been so long I can't remember (then I thought that would give him an in to ask me out so I said last month) Anyway, we were inturrupted which is always a good thing, while we were watching this dvd and I look over at him and he is staring at me. I didn't say anything, just went back to watching the movie. It is so obvious to me that dude is feeling me which is why I can't understand it when these dudes are in relationships and say that they couldn't tell that their boys mama, sister, baby mama, (inseet random female here) is trying to get with them. That is a load of shit. But anyway, I don't want dude to ask me out because then i'd have to say no and rejection will almost always put a damper on our working relationship and I have to see him for at least another week.

Men Men Men. Unfortunately they are all wrong

Okay, so I'm in Starbucks on my lunch break sipping on my Caramel Macchiato when I'm instantly drawn to the 6' plus man who just entered. He looks at me for a moment and then goes on to stand in line. I was instantly drawn to this man not because he was overly attractive but because he had the prettiest eyes I have ever seen. It wasn't his eye color but the fact that these were the biggest, brightest, most expressive eyes that I have ever seen. He even had extra long eyelashes to boot. I couldn't help but stare at this man , even to the point that when he glanced at me I didn't even break my stare. Normally I would've looked away or looked down or done something but not this time. I just kept on staring, so much so that he probably felt obligated to join me so when he asked if I minded, I said "Not at all, have a seat." Of course I apologized (as i'm not that blatantly rude) but I just had to tell him that he has lovely eyes. He thanked me and said he isn't used to being stared down by such an attractive woman. Touche'. Anyway, we engage in minor chitchat abour work and interests and then it happened, I lost interest just like that. I know ya'll are wondering what happened and I will tell you, dude took off his hat. That's right, He took off his dayum hat! Will you believe that this man had some of the nappiest hair known to man. I mean so much so that each nap had individualized and separated to the point that I could've counted each one. He literally put the "bead" in bead-dee-beads!!!! On top of that, his hair was so dry that it actually looked dusty, you hear me, DUSTY!! It took everything within me to keep from reaching into my bag and pulling out my moisturizer to hook his head up right there. Now before you stone me, I have nothing against nappy hair, as a matter of fact, I actually prefer that look on females as well as males but dude looked like a brush (not to mention a comb or hair products) hadn't touched his head in forever. I was in awe, I simply told him that I had to get back to work and ended all conversing right there. So what, I'm shallow, sue me. On another note, a co-worker and I have been working at this new spot running an ongoing workshop. We'll be there for another week and a half, My first day there, everyone at that location was extremely nice and friendly. This old dude always speaks to me and I didn't think anything of it. Day before yesterday, he actually joined me while I was walking back from the restroom, I can't remember what he said exactly but I do remember thinking that he is getting a little flirty. Anyway, I get a new partner today and we are in the office talking and old dude comes in and joins in the conversation. We're having a pleasant conversation, talking and laughing when my co-worker decides that he needs to take a smoke break. As soon as he leaves the old guy asks me where my guy is? I'm thinking he is talking about the guy who my new partner replaced so I ask "Who, the guy that was here before?" and he says "No your personal guy." I tell him I have no guy and he says "Why not? You don't need a man," and While I'm responding to that question with no, he has already asked whether or not I like men so of course when he heard my "No," he gets all bug-eyed and said "What... You don't like men, what you like? I said "My NO was in response to your previous question and Yes, I like men just fine." He continues to try to diagnose me and tells me that I must've been hurt extremely bad because after all, Ya'll know that it has got to be unfathomable that a pretty young thang such as myself wouldn't want an old ass geyser like him. Yes, he was semi attractive for his age but I highly doubt that a man that age could do anything for me other than hit me off with a couple of dollars every now and then and then introduce me to his younger, more attractive son. Anyway, My co-worker returns and the old dude stops his flirting and the convo gets back to normal but everytime my coworker left the room (which was a total of three times), two smoke breaks and a phone call) he just had to take it there. He told me that I should cook dinner and invite him over. I told him that I don't cook and am more of a fast food kind of chick, specifically McDonalds (since he mentioned earlier that he doesn't eat fast food and especially McDonalds.) He then says " Oh well, I wouldn't take you out then even if you did say yes, you'll go out with me, (slick bastid) because I don't do fast food. Luckily, my coworker walked back in. The old dude left and conveniently came back when said -worker was again out of the office to ask me what the plan was for the weekend. I told him that I would be running a workshop and then he asked what I was doing after that. I told him I didn't know as of yet, but I'm sure I'll be getting into something and then he asked if I would be thinking of him this weekend and especially tonight, (What the hell?) I said why? He said why not. I really wanted to tell him that not only is he old enough to be My daddy but he is old enough to be my daddy's daddy and he should know better. He said I don't know so I said "Sure, I'll remember you in my prayers this Sunday and he said "Okay, but think of me in your heart too". By this time I'm utterly disgusted. Anyway, he finally decides to carry his old ass on and a few hours later, when we are getting ready to lock up the office, my co-worker said "You know, that guy is really attracted to you" and I asked him what made him think that. He said "I don't know. I just know he is extremely attracted to you" and I, again, asked, "How do you know" and he said "I can just tell." I said "Yeah if you could tell, then why did you keep leaving like that?" I could've kicked his ass. He went over and mocked the old dude and I almost fell out laughing. Anyway, I have about 2 more weeks at that location and I do not want nor need the old dude flirting with me during the rest of that time. I might have to just come right on out and let him know that he is too old for me. I'm trying to be polite about it but I don't know how much more of this, of him, I can take. Lawd help me!

My worst Nightmare come true

I've been missing in action for a spell but who can blame me, I got caught up in spring fever and nearly lost my dayum mind. Anyway, not much has been up with me outside of the norm. I went out of town last weekend to this little soiree. The plan was to leave early Saturday morning, attend the party saturday night, and return home Sunday evening. All things were ago. I catch my flight and arrive as planned, only problem was that my bags weren't there when I arrived. Yes, they lost my dayum luggage. I'm inquiring about my bag and they want me to fill out the little claim for missing baggage and be on my way. Now normally, that is what I would've done but not this time. I was 2 seconds from showing my ass up in that joint. I know that they have an emergency fund for lost luggage so I inquire about it and they tell me that my bag needs to be lost for at least 24 hours. Mind you that little piece of info wasn't on any of the papers that I had so I pressed the issue. She tells me it's in their manual so I ask to see it. She disappears for about 10-15 minutes then reappears with some internet printouts. I tell her she printed that off of the internet and she said yes, that's where there manuals are. I continue to press (hell, I had too,I had no underwear, bra, tooth brush, no nothing and don't even mention the shopping that I did) Matter of fact, let me tell ya'll about it. I bought the cutest little dress to wear and since I had this neverending urge to wear some boots, I searched high and low (ya'll know that it's spring and most stores have gotten rid of their boots and such a month ago) until I finally found a boutique that had a pair of boots for me. Just so you can get the full understanding of how much I wanted to rock some boots, the pair that I really liked, they didn't have in my size, so I ended up buying the only pair that they had in my size (which was no where near the color that I needed.) Now what did I do you ask? I bought them and then went and purchased another dress that matched the boots perfectly, and now these bitches want to tell me that they lost my shit and they don't have any funds to give me. Anyway, she leaves again to go powwow with her co-workers, (I see about 3 or 4 people go into this little room with her) for another 15-20 minutes, she finally comes out with she needs to see my receipts. Now I'm thinking, I just got in from another state, How the hell am I gonna have receipts and then she says I need to go shopping and then bring them the receipts back. At this point, I'm pissed and have no intentions of coming up out of my pocket for anything. I tell them that for me, it's not about the money, that I'd much rather have my bag and had they not lost it, I would have it. I'm not about to jump through hoops and shit to rectify a situation that wasn't my fault in the beginning. They send out this old bitch who can't open her mouth up without a lie coming out. After them telling me they had no idea where my bag is all of a sudden she knows where it is. I ask how she found it and she says someone was walking by and noticed the bags then called her. That was complete and utter bullshit and lie number 1. I ask for a supervisor and she tells me there is no supervisor. I tell that bitch that in customer service situations, unless you are THE BOSS,every position has a chain of command and I want to speak with her supervisor or the person over her. She tells me that they can't get a supervisor to come over, lie number 2. She tells me that she can't give me anything because they have no money on the premises...Lie number 3. I tell her that I know everyone doesn't pay for their purchases with credit and if there was no money, how was she going to reimburse me had I shown her receipts. She says hopefully, a supervisor would've come over with the money by then. I guess she forgot that she had just told me that they couldn't get a supervisor for me to speak with. I said "Look, Please do not insult my intelligence with this bullshit, I told her I am highly intelligent with some semblance of common sense and I wasn't going to waste anymore time with her. I then moved on to another person who had me talk to a supervisor in another state. she connects the call to the phone in the lobby and the supervisor whom I speaking with says she will give me $50 and then we mysteriously get disconnected.The lady says she will call back and then transfer the call to my phone and when that happened this bitch did a total 180, now she isn't giving me anything. To make a long story short, My ass left out of there with $250 cash and I ended up getting my bags the next day. Yes, I had about an hour to go shopping (after all of the time I wasted playing tit for tat with those bitches) and I did not get to wear my cute ass boots but I got a new outfit out of the deal and had some money left over.(I'll save the details of the party for another post but anyway, I was determined that someone would see me in my outfit so you know I didn't hesitate to rock it on my return home.....What? You thought I wouldn't?

I was in KFC and saw the most incredulous thing, A chick was in there arguing with another female about HER man over the phone! What's even more incredulous is the fact that when I returned about an hour later, said man was there and he and the chick were on the phone trying to call this female. (I know you're thinking damn, KFC twice in one day biut it's not like that) I promised someone that I would bring a personal pan pizza home and since this is the slowest KFC known to man, I went to order ahead of time because had I not, I would've had at least an half an hour wait. But anyway back to this chick, I hear her screaming into the phone how much her man loves her and that this other girl is obviously lying, and when said man arrived, she was telling him that the girl said she met his family and they were together last night. Personally, I know the boyfriend was guilty as hell. I could see it all over his face. But anyway this chick was going off and I just strated thinking, That would never be me. I wish I would get all excited and hyper over some raggedy ass dude and yes, she did work there. Had it been me I would've just said," Oh yeah, okay thanks for the call" and then went on about my business. I don't have time to entertain that type of foolishness, especially while I am working. That's crazy!!! I had one chick call me over a male friend of mine. That broad was calling me damn near daily , long distance mind you, trying to question me about my friend. How's that for insecurity? I know had it been me, the last thing I would be worried about is another bitch in another state. Now he did like me at one point but there was nothing going on with us. We went out once and may have kissed once or twice but that was it. He really wasn't my type at all. I couldn't believe this girl had the audacity to call me and try to go off. Had she come at me like a woman, I would've told her the truth, that nothing was going on and we were just friends but she had to call me acting crazy so I just said things to fuck with her head. I told her we were fucking and everything she probably didn't really want to hear. That type of thing is just crazy!!! I swore that I would never call another woman about a man. Shoot,if it can't be handled between he and I, then oh well. I ain't the one to be trying to check on no dick. Especially to the extent that I have to be following him around and calling up folks trying to find out where he is and who he is with. I'd leave his ass first. There are two things that I have come to realize: 1. If a man truly loves you, NOTHING can take him away, no woman, no money, no thing and 2. If a man truly wants to leave, NOTHING , no pregnancy, no chld, no buying his love can make him stay. Women need to realize that and learn to be okay with it. It will save you a lifetime of heartache and strife.

It's Fridaaaayyyy! I'm so dayum glad the work week has ended. I'm sitting here messing around until it's time for me to get outta here. I'm going to happy hour with a few co-workers and them I will head on home. Don't have any plans as of yet unless somebody calls me and wants to do something. If not, I will be chillin' in the tub with a good book and a glass of wine. I saw Youngin' this morning. Shoot I see him every morning since he works at my coffe spot. That boy is just determined that he is going to get some of this but as much confidence as he has, I got double. He's persistent though and if he wasn't so young there is no doubt that I would've been all over that. lol He's either 20 or 21 and I can't do anything with that right now. It's hard but I'm going to hold out a bit longer. I was with a young dude before and aside from the sex ( which was all that) we just didn't have much in common. He got overly attached thinking he was my man when I made it clear from the beginning that I wasn't looking for a relationship, didn't have time for one, and it/we would never be anything more that what it was. He got almost stalkerish so I had to cut him off and that was enough to let me know that a young guy cannot handle a relationship, fling, what have you with an older woman especially when the pussy is good! Now that's not to say that I will never have a younger man. because shit, men do that all day everyday but I do have my imits though, no younger than 2 years and I have a few more years than that on the youngin. No deal.... I think?

Just one of them dayz

Today was just a really fucked up day for me. For starters, locked myself out of the house. I don't know how the hell that happened but it did. I usually keep my car and house keys in the pocket of whatever coat I'm wearing that day (since I don't necessarily carry the same handbag on a daily basis and I'm used to sitting it down wherever.) I forgot to turn my IPOD off so I take it out of my pocket and turn it off and apparently my keys came out with it. So I lock my door (I have 2 locks on my door and I've gotten into the habit of locking one of the locks from the inside so I can just walk out of the door and its locked) and I get out my keys to lock the other lock and I realize they aren't in my jacket. DAYUM IT! That means I need to go to my mother's job since she is the only other person who has a spare key to my place,(Now ask me why she has a spare key...Apparently My ass has done thise before lol) pick up her house keys (since my set to hers is also locked inside) go to her house, pick up the spare and then drop her keys back off to her. After that I was pissed and there was no way in hell that I was going to even attempt to head in to the office today. Shoot! I took a personal day and took my ass on to McDonald's for some breakfast since my mouth was watering for some coffee. I'm in McDonalds and the chick is making my coffee and another chick bumps into her and it spills so she has to make me another cup. When I get home, I'm getting out my ride and I drop my muhfuggin' coffee! Can you believe that shit? I wasn't about to go back and get another one so I just made me a cup when I got home. I don't know , today just wan't my day I guess.

On a brighter note, Youngin'(I'll talk about him later) called to see if I was okay, said he was a little worried when I didn't stop by today. I told him that it's sweet that he was concerned but I'm quite alright. Now youngin' is a little cutie but I simply cannot go there. I'm determined that I won't, but his little fine young azz is wearing me down ya'll.

Year 2006 "rap" up

I didn't get in until after midnight last night and then had to get up at 7 so that I could be over my Aunt's house by a quarter to 8 to take her and my unlce to the train station. I am one tired sista but for some reason I can't go back to sleep. I guess that cup of coffee that I had earlier to help wake me up is really doing the job. I just feel drained. lol I guess I'm getting too old, I can't be keeping late hours like I did when I was in school. Anyway, I didn't get to post much due to the fact that I was out of town without internet access so Here is Skillz with the year in review. (I love dude...he is funny as hell) ENJOY!

You would think a nukka would know!

What is it with a nukka thinking that once ya'll become involved, start kicking it, have a relationship or what have you that gives him free reign to do whatever. Dude, my life doesn't stop just because I met you. Don't call me (AT WORK NO LESS) questioning me on my whereabouts and why I wasn't at home to get your call when I knew you were calling me at 6. Dude Please! If you think I'm going to sit around waiting for a phone call that you may or may not decide to place, you are saddly mistaken. Then to top it off, you have the audacity to say that you'll be over at 6? Did you ask me if I had previous plans? Did you ask me if it was alright for you to come over? I'm like this, My life does not revolve around you , I had a life before you and I will continue to have one if and when you are long gone. If you want me to make some time for you then let me know in advance so I can try to hook it up, don't just assume that it's okay for you stop by whenever the heck you feel like it because you will just make an ass out of yourself as the saying goes. Now, if we are going to do this we will do it right, you will respect me and do things properly and I will do the same with you. Respect me and my space and things will work out just fine--- I don't think that's asking too much, do you? I had to tell him that I'm busy and if he decided to stop by, he'd be waiting outside until I made it home and even then, I'd have to think about inviting him in. Ladies, I'm telling ya'll if you start letting a dude come over on a whim any time he feels like it, it won't be too long before he has all of his shyt over and you'll find his ass posted up on your sofa, drinking your beer, eating your food, and watching your TV all damn day while you're out working a 9 to 5 trying to make ends meet. Nahh... not me!!! Not in this lifetime!! If you want to spend some time with me then I'm available tomorrow after 5--- I'll pencil you in!! lol I'm just kidding about the pencil you in part but I'm serious about the rest. I refuse to let a man take advantage of me like that. I have a girlfriend who used to date one of my cousins. Now she was my friend before she and my cousin started creeping but it wasn't too long after they hooked up that she stopped hanging out with us. Her ass would be sitting at home waiting for his no good behind( he's my fam and all but yet in still, I call it like I see it and his behind was NO GOOD) to call or show up and 99 % of the time that's exactly how she ended up,still waiting while he was out doing his thang. Pretty soon we stopped asking her to do things with us because we knew it was no point because her ass was on a short leash. (whether self-imposed or at his hand I don't know.) She ended up getting pregnant thinking that would change things but ya'll know how that worked out. Said child is now 15 and she recently(talking a few months ago recent) had another baby by a different dude. She and my cousin don't really have a relationship other than for the kid. He does help her out with cash for herself at times. While I will admit that he treated her like shit, I can't say he is 100% at fault because she allowed him to do it. One thing I will say is that he is a real good father to his child when he is allowed to be.

A blast from the past

I was checking my email and lo and behold I see a message from my old internet fling. He just wanted to see what's been up with me and to make sure I was doing well. Awe, how sweet of him especially since I haven't thought about him since our "episode". Now I swore that I would never hook up with anyone from the 'net but I have since learned never to say never lol. I met him in a chatroom one night when I was bored and had nothing to do. I don't quite remember how we started chatting, but anyway,it became our nightly ritual. We chatted for about a year or so and during this time we had no idea what each other looked like. I sent him a pic of me but he didn't have one to send back which was okay. It made me a little skeptical but I didn't think anything of it. Looks aren't of the utmost importance to me because I have been known to date an ugly man or two haha. Besides,I look good enough for the both of us!! Our chats eventually progressed to conversing by phone and he did sound SEXY as hell which peaked my interest even more. Anyway, it was finally the summer and since I love to travel, I decided to make a trip out his way.(won't say where--- just in case he should happen upon this entry) Anyway,I grab my roadie and we roll on out. We decide against driving and take the train instead.(This was against my better judgement but everything worked out well.) We stopped at the liquor store so we could get our drank on before we boarded the train. We get there and I call my fling and tell him that I am in town and to come meet me at this little bar. After a myriad of "You are lying!", "No you're not!", "You're kidding!" he agrees and said he will meet us in about an hour. My girl and I are getting much attention from the men just walking down the street and I am wondering if I should've even made the phone call but we head on down to the bar. Jazzy is flirting with this middle-aged bar tender and he is hooking us up with drinks and food. My girl really knows how to work it! We are eating and drinking trying to get our buzz on just in case my "innanet" date turns out to be a troll. We all know a nukka looks 100% better after a few drinks So anyway, the bartender tells us that there is a club around the corner from the bar and he walks us over there, gets us in for free, and tells the guys there to take care of us. We drink some more, dance a bit, and then head on back to the bar. By this time Jazzy has disappeared and I am sitting at the bar eating and drinking when this gorgeous guy walks in. I spot him as he is coming through the door and I just know this is my internet guy. My nipples are saluting him as he walks in! He walks up to me(my heart is about to jump out of my chest) then he taps me on my shoulder and says "your name wouldn't happen to be MiMi would it?" and I of course say "YESS, YESSSS, Take me now!!!" No, Just kidding I just say "Yes." I'm thinking damn MiMi,
you have hit the jackpot! This guy is fine! So then he says "Someone wants to see you outside" Damn!! I'm crushed. I'm thinking how highschool. Why doesn't he just bring his ass in and come say hello? I walk outside and there stood this ugly, gremlin, trollish looking brotha. I was somewhat disappointed and I think that he was worried that I wouldn't be attracted to him which is why he sent his cute friend in first to size me up.
Thank God for the drinks!!! I was a little tipsy by that point anyway. Now I'm not the type to be blatantly rude or anything so he never knew my initial impression of him. Besides, I had been chatting to him long enough that my attraction to him was based on his personality, not his looks, since I never had the opportunity to see his ugly ass before hand. Lol nah let me stop! Anyway, we head into the bar and have a drink and then they ask about my girl. I remember she is MIA and I go look for her and find her in the downstairs bathroom stall with the bartender. Apparently she was giving him head!! DONT ASK!! Jazzy is a wild girl with an insatiable oral fetish. I can just imagine if Jazzy knew I was telling the world her exploits. I'm running out of room so I have to continue this later, besides my Chicken Fettucini with brocoli and Jack Daniels Down Home Punch got a sista salivating like a muhfugga.

Home Sweet Home..NOT!!!

My first post of the New Year..Yayyyy! I am back from a fabulously relaxing visit with my family and I am soooo not happy to be back at home. It was so nice being with them. I took the train this time and didn't realize how much I missed traveling by train. Yeah, flying will get you there faster but there is nothing like the peace and tranquility of a train ride. I wasn't in the mood for the hustle and bustle and long lines that I most certainly would've encountered had I chosen to fly this time. It actually cost me about the same to take the train as it would've had I flown. Anyway, I spent the majority of my time with my grandparents who are blessed to be 90+. We just chatted about the old days.(You know how old folks do)I actually enjoyed listening to them reminisce and I learned a few things about my family in the process. My grandfather actually had a book that traced his roots back to about 15 or 16 generations and I found that to be quite interesting. My name was even included and that just tickled me pink. While I was there,I went out to the whitest white bar ever and partied with the drunken white chicks, went out to eat, shopped, dropped in on a few friends that I grew up with but haven't seen in ages and just had a grand old time. I didn't go out on NYE though. I went over a friends house and stayed until about 5 minutes until mignight and then brought in the New Year (on my knees...... praying for those of you with dirty minds) with my family. Even found the time to take in 2 basketball games which I absolutely loved. I might have to see if I can find some tickets to a game here which shouldn't be too hard to do since our team sucks and has sucked for the past 2 or 3 years. I returned yesterday and now the hard part begins, That Christmas tree is staring me in the face as well as the many gifts underneath. I have to tackle that as well as unpack my bags which I may just put off until the weekend. Yes, I am lazy like that. If I had my way, my tree would stay up until next year lol.
