very graphic in terms of color. Bey's body is S-I-C-K!! I guess the weapons mean they are killing the competition. I'm not certain why GaGa though, "hubba hubba"...for real? anyway, i adore when Bey gives attitude, the gum popping is great!! all in all the video didn't meet the hype, but do they ever?

Goodie...bagged

meaning that i purchased my tickets to see Goodie Mob this Saturday. You should be there, for real. I mean come on its only $40.00 and they are well worth it. Personally, I am convinced that the entire DF will make an appearance. Yesterday the Mob took a Marta tour of their stomping ground to promote the concert. Again, you should be there. Anyway, i am not gonna waste anymore of my minutes trying to convince you of their greatness. If you are not familiar, there is nothing more I can say.

I can soooooo see myself in this car! Hell, everyone would see me, you and whoever else is lucky to ride! Maybe BMW will make this dream a reality, being that this is a concept car and all!

Jordans > Yeezy's



"Set to drop this summer, May 30th priced at $310, The Air Jordan 5 "Toro Bravo" Pack. Aside from the Air Yeezy's, these are one of the few sneakers with hype this summer!" courtesy: The1986.com

Okay so I know everyone is all crunk about the new Air Yeezy's (Original posting). I mean they are cool and all but they aren't flattering on the foot. anytime I see Ye in them he looks like a bratz doll...big ass feet. I even saw Keri Hilson in them and they still looked like gray marshmallows to me. Anyway so The above shoes trump most shoes out here, except my latest purchase LOL (see below). These are by far my favorite style of Jordan.

Dinner

this is completely random, but i made an AWESOME chicken philly for dinner tonite. I did it all from scratch too and guess what, it cost me only $5.20 to make. I had the rolls, onion and cheese at home; put a purchase on some chicken tenderloins ($4.50) and bell pepper (0.50) and voila, we have all the ingredients. So I seasoned and sauteed 2 tenderloins in a non stick skillet with a small amount of oil. Placed a lid on it so the steam could cook the meat as it was pan frying. Once done, i removed the chicken and let it rest. I then sliced some onion, bell pepper and mushrooms and added them to the skillet with chicken juices and oil. Turned the heat down to low, covered the skillet and let the veggies cook slowly, about 6 minutes. I then chopped up the chicken, added it to the veggies in the skillet and mixed it around a bit. Then i placed some cheese on top of the veggie/chicken mix, covered with a lid and let it melt. Once all melty i scooped it up and slid the mixture into a soft roll that i cut just enough to make into a pocket. The results...a cheesy, flavorful and filling sandwich. It was so much i could only eat half. I will go back for the other half later on tonite if my stomach says so...LOL. It would be nice to have a picture but the camera is dead and you know i can't find the charger. Oh well, you will have to just take my word for it.

this song makes me happy!

former flames...current ashes

it humors me, really it does. oh yeah, i am talking about ex-boyfriends trying to bring that old thing back...LAME! once i am done, i am done. now, i am cordial, i will even hang out with an ex but I AM NOT sleeping with you again, sorry sir. what kills me is when they want to talk about the good times we had, yeah HAD, meaning in the past.

maybe i shouldn't hang out with any of them, perhaps that gives them illusions of grandeur and hope for things to cum ;). maybe its the fact that my breakups are usually a peaceful dissolution, never a loud "fuck you, i can't stand you" experience. besides, i am always friends with anyone i have been in a relationship with and i have the ability to see that ex-man as just a friend after a breakup. now how they see me may be totally different and is beyond my control but i know what the limits are and don't cross them.

♥ ♥

what do i want? this is a question i ask myself often. there are two areas this applies to, life and love. and yes, i want them both. thankfully, i know what its like to experience them both so if i left now i would really be cool, honestly!

so i am approaching 30 and its time for me to get serious. i always make interesting choices in relationships. i don't regret any of them because really each one has taught me something but i am not going back to any of them. so from my past experiences come my present conclusions. i want a MAN. this is not determined by age, but by actions. i'm not gonna get into my definition of a man, but know that i was raised by my dad so i know wassup!

when it comes to children, i definitely want some. but on top of being a mother, i want to be a parent. i am all about raising children. that means my natural children or those through marriage or even adoption. if i do not have children by 35 then its a wrap. i have never been pregnant so when it does happen, it's no way i would terminate. too late in the game for that option, plus at this point its not an "oops" situation.

so this dating thing is so funny. its something i am having to reacquaint myself with. i am certain i am doing some parts of this wrong, but i am enjoying it. i figure if it feels good, do it, with moderation, LOL. i'm not gonna get into the details of my present company, but know that i'm cool ;)

...

yep, so i'm back. i have pin curled my hair, put on the lounge wear and now doing this but only after doing....that ;)

listening to kid cudi. this one been out for a while, i'm just gettin it but I got it. its riding, he is versatile. i could link u to it but then what fun would that be?

can you believe that Publix wanted $5.99 + tax for a box of Newport lights? Oh hell no! that is a "what the fuck" moment, for real.

these people at my job are crazy as hell. got people round here working hard to "keep" their job. its wild. i work hard because i don't mind working and in return for my work i get money. i'on know man, i got to do something else other than this. i want to go back to school for certification. i also would like to just be in beautiful places with warm people...

okay so the woman is M-E-A-N. Finally a fly ass chick who is doing it right! good look for Ye, her swag definitely complements his. She is rocking the Caesar beautifully, her body is SICK and she got a jazzy lil walk that means business. Her style is risky but relateable and her shoes + accessories = murder. i. am. dead.

3.08.2009

hey there, remember me?

ha ha! no, but seriously, how are you doing? me, well i am fine. just coming down off of this wonderful weekend i had. my friday night was cool. i got my hair done then me and my homegirl hit the El No[pal] for margaritas. the place was live as usual. they even had a d.j. that night, too funny!

saturday was good too. i got an early start and did alot of laundry then i said fuck it. the day was GEORGEOUS. i couldn't spend it all in the house so i went to a lil BBQ with the old heads. they are always so much fun. i would love to recant some of the conversations but you had to be there to get the full effect. so after that, me and my homegirl hit a house party. that was real cool, once we found the place. old girl moved out to the damn sticks. anyway, she had it on deck though. a nice amount of people, plenty of liquor and extras. the jokes were plentiful too. after the house party we hit a after hours spot that was hosting a tribute to Outkast. It was real cool cause $20 took care of the cover, endless drinks and a buffet. yes, i said buffet. so the Nappy roots performed and this dude named Aleon Craft. got home bout 4 am and it was all good.

today, i had a impromptu BBQ. it was such a beautiful day and the park was calling me. we had a nice spot by the river, BEAUTIFUL. it was only 4 of us but that was all it needed to be. we had bratwurst, hot dogs, chicken wings, baked beans and potato salad...yummy!

"that's what the whore's do"

It's friday

and i am bored as hell. i have finished all my work and i can't seem to find anything to occupy my time until 5pm. my lunch break was eventful because i had to navigate atlanta traffic in heavy rain and that is not an easy task. now i am back in the office, reclining and blogging. some people may say "what's wrong with that?" well for me this is my most productive time of day so if I am not doing any work it bothers me. well, that's my peace.

shoe game proper



see, so this is one of the reasons why my shoe closet is filled to the top and i have begun to stack the boxes neatly on the floor. but never fear, i have sworn to myself that i will donate a pair of gently worn shoes for every pair that i buy. that way i am creating room for what is new and passing on some good merchandise to others. each one teach one. now get you a piece whore!

speakerbox: Rich Hil




yeah so this young man is the progeny of a privileged family. can you complete his last name? anyway, he seems to have a penchant for vowel sounds but its all good because one of my favorite sounds begins and ends with an "o" ;)

i ain't forget

i just have a life outside of this virtual one! now now, don't get offended, i'm just sayin that my real life comes before the virtual one, we cool? good.

2.18.2009

i have a secret...

i am afraid of bad storms, don't judge! i think it is their unpredictable nature and power. the fact that our home was struck by lighting and burned to the ground doesn't help either. hell, that is the main reason. what kills me is how the meteorologists get so hype over the storms. there is no other news on right now, just doppler maps with pretty colors, bummer. oh well, what can i do? well, i won't tell ya'll what i really do but you're smart, you can figure it out ;)

anyway, i leave you with this lil ditty. the sample is relevant to the post, if you can catch it!

song cry

after writing the below post, i felt inclined to follow with this video. i don't think there is a direct correlation but here it is. turn it up, close your eyes, listen with your ears and feel it within! oh yeah, that's an order...lol



in case you want to sing along.

so i have had a few conversations with some friends over the past few days and it seems that some of them have parted ways with their lovers because of less than stellar Valentine pony shows i.e. their guy didn't spend enough, how dreadful. now don't get me wrong, i don't hate valentine's day, its cool. i just feel that it is completely overrated + i am more concerned about what is done on the other 364 days.

so back to the situation at hand: i mean seriously, you're telling me that you have just cut him off because he didn't buy you enough stuff? I would understand if ya'll have been together for a while and he didn't show any appreciation. but, ya'll only been seeing each other for like 3-4 months. besides, its a recession! well at least that's the reason people are using for most things these days ;) me personally, i don't celebrate any of those lil "holidays" until i've been with a man for a minute, i takes my time. gift giving for me is personal and should be memorable. if i am gonna give, i need to know (1) you appreciate me first (2) what your likes and dislikes are (3) what really makes you smile and brings you joy. it's not about the monetary value, the sentiment lasts so much longer. nothing is better than giving someone a gift that they truly like, love, enjoy. they will never forget who gave it to em.

2.16.2009

and i'm out...



McNuggetini? not even on my fattest fat girl day would i attempt to eat/drink this. but then again, if you take away the BBQ sauce and nugget garnish it might be str8, lol. the drink itself is just a Mickey D's chocolate milkshake + absolute vanilla vodka, see that's not so bad.

bricks

and no not the kind gucci mane raps about. but the ones that are necessary for building a life.

so today was a productive day. i wasn't certain because i got off to a late start, but then again i was up until 4 am, so that's my fault. so anyway, at work i have been assigned a new project to coordinate/plan, yay! it may seem strange, but i get very excited about making events come to life and i am pretty good at it if i do say so myself. the last event i coordinated for this group was awesome, they were so impressed that they even sent me a gift to say "job well done." so i am ready to get started, i love working with a budget because it allows me to be extremely creative and efficient.

on another note, i made some connections for my business. this collaboration will be awesome. there is a young black entrepreneurs network(Y-BEN) networking function on Thursday that i have invited some potential clients to. this atmosphere will be a great for making new connections and promoting the creative process. visit blakmanpromotions for more information about Y-BEN and how they are connecting young professionals.

now, to get some more business cards printed up cause you know i am fresh out!

call me a hater, but please don't call me a liar. i am speaking the truth on this one. this ensemble gets two thumbs down. the cut off shorts, shiny stockings (WTH, ur in Arizona!) and peep toe pumps? what is wrong with wearing some jeans?

never never land

is going out of business. look at what Michael Jackson has up for sale, ahem auction.
