I Have A Girl Crush 2008-07-12 11:01:00 We ladies know just how hard it is to find a hairdresser we like. We have to endure endless horrific haircuts and disastrous dye jobs until we meet the one and only that is meant for us.Well, ladies and gentleman, I have finally found the one for me and she is fabulous! I think I'm in love. I know she feels it too. When I leave her chair my hair is bouncing and behaving and I am ecstatic.Oh my dea
I’m Personal 2008-07-10 08:29:00 I did a post awhile ago asking who do we blog for, this post deals with the type of blogger we are. Why do we choose to blog in the fashion we do. For example, I am a "personal blogger" because I like reading and sharing aspect of personal life.Sure, I could blog about the plight of certain socio-economic groups in the US, I could blog about race relations, the political process, the fact that we Read more:Personal
Talk About Dedication 2008-07-07 17:01:00 I was talking on the phone yesterday with an old co-worker turned friend. It was a brief conversation as many of them with her are but enlightening nonetheless. 2 ½ years ago when I met "D" we became fast buddies. I found her interesting and funny. During the course of my working at this company an unfortunate event transpired that landed her boyfriend in jail. It took her quite sometime to admit Read more:Dedication
Watch Your Texts 2008-08-05 07:18:00 I have a coworker "Mary". Mary has a husband "Gary". Gary calls Mary to give her a bit of news which she amusingly passed on to us.Gary has a woman under his employ. She apparently was texting her husband. In one of the texts flowing back and forth the woman wrote, "Sure Honey, I can go tonight but let me leave now because Gary's being a Dick today and I don't want him to ruin this."Guess what hap
Can Someone Call Jerry Springer? 2008-07-31 19:59:00 OK, I paid a visit to my mother this afternoon. It was our normal, nice visit. We sat in her room watching Judge Hatchet. There was a case where a woman told her now grown daughter when she was 11 that the man she thought was her father probably wasn't.As you can imagine that put quite a rift between the daughter and her "father". They began to distance themselves over the ensuing years.Fast forwa Read more:Jerry

My First Day Of School 2008-07-28 08:20:00 How many of you remember your first day of school? Kindergarten? First
grade? Pre school? I never attended pre school or kindergarten. My mother thought I was too small to be allowed to go to school. Not over protective at all was she, huh? Forget that I was old enough and smart enough to attend school with all my young peers, I was left at home simply because I was "too small". Whatever. lolAnywa Read more:School

Adoption 2008-07-23 14:48:00 There was recently a story on one of the national news programs that spotlighted a woman who was adopted at birth and her desire to locate her birth parents in an effort to save her sick son by uncovering pertinent family medical history.After some investigation on her part and with the aid of a professional she located her birth mother. Unfortunately, the birth mother's current husband and childr Read more:Adoption
More Of My Randomness 2008-08-20 18:19:00 Just some of my recent random thoughts:Why is America's Got Talent judged by 2 Brits?Why does the Hummer have the leg room of a sardine can?Why was I having VERY inappropriate thoughts at the airport the other day about a really young guy (old enough to be my son) in Naval dress whites. Damn I love a man in uniform.Why is it when I have a house full of great food I love I race to eat all of said f
My Weekend Wedding 2008-08-17 13:57:00 Well blog buddies, I attended my uncle's wedding in GA. Yep, my uncle Peter that I blogged about got remarried this weekend and the entire family converged on GA.It was actually a really nice wedding but you know I had some serious blog fodder for you upon my return.First, when I am traveling on a plane, sitting in my seat with my eyes closed, that is not an invitation to engage me in a very munda Read more:Weekend
What Was I Thinking? 2008-08-11 13:39:00 This past Saturday, one of my close friends celebrated a birthday. She decided she wanted to go out dancing and of course I had to attend. I'm down for my friends. That's how I roll.We get to said club, find our table and begin to do what we do best, order drinks and gossip. Mind you, it had been quite awhile since I'd attended a club. I was looking forward to having a nice girls night out.As the
Ignorantnomics 2008-08-07 08:33:00 I'm sure you are wondering what "Ignorantnomics" is. It's a term I coined yesterday actually after witnessing some really ignorant economic decisions made by some people.Ignorantnomics is when you are 2 months behind in your mortgage/rent but when you win $12,000 in the lottery you buy a flat screen plasma TV instead.Ignorantnomics is when your kitchen is falling apart and you decide to put a deck
To Circumcise or Not Circumcise 2008-09-11 07:40:00 I have a really good friend that I've known for 30 years. I'd do anything for her because she has always been there for me. When we were kids we'd fight like sisters would but always made up because that what sisters do. She had a baby last year and due to medical situations he was never circumcised. She had decided to put it off for a year.Well a year has come upon us and I asked her recently if
An Outsider 2008-09-07 17:20:00 I attended a wedding this weekend. My little cousin got married and it was a lovely event. His aunts and uncles and grandfather made the drive to Maryland from South Carolina for the nuptials. His aunts and uncles are my cousins and his grandfather is my aunts husband. It was great seeing all of them since I hadn't seen them in about 7 years or so since my aunts death. Although I was looking forwa Read more:Outsider
Ode to Summer 2008-09-03 13:35:00 Summer oh Summer how I love thee. Our time together is always too short. It seems as if you show up, then 3 months later, you're gone again. There are so many things we hadn't done together like camping, hiking and swimming. Who the hell am I kidding, I don't do any of that crap but you get the gist of what I trying to say here. Summer, we hadn't even gone on vacation yet and you are abandoning me Read more:Summer
Old People 2008-08-29 18:05:00 OK, it seems that the older we get the more we begin to come full circle in the cycle of life. Think about it, we are born and totally dependent on our parents for our very survival. We get to our teens and go through puberty where we become, mean and cliquish. In those teens years the hottest clothes and the sexiest cars are must haves. We get in our 20's and 30's and material things don't matter
I've Received An Award 2008-08-25 08:50:00 My blog buddy, Freckle Face Girl was wonderful enough to give lil ol' me this “I LOVE THIS BLOG” award. I was very surprised.I must pick 7 people to bestow this honor upon. As you can imagine, it was not easy only picking seven. I had to leave out several buddies that I love to read. Please don't get mad, I could only pick 7 but I read everyone on my blogroll daily and love you all. I did foll Read more:Award
10 Traits Of Successful Women 2008-09-30 18:33:00 I found this and thought I'd share.1. She has a positive attitude. There's no energy that can mimic what's released when a positive, high-stepping woman enters a room. A positive attitude is the fuel needed to drive us from idea conception to realization.A positive attitude takes conscious effort on your part. Arrest negative thoughts and replace them with positive ones. Listen to the things you'r Read more:Traits

Do You Ever Just Get Tired? 2008-09-25 13:20:00 Do you ever get tired? I'm not talking about physically tired where you require a nap. This is a little deeper then that.I am really tired of giving and giving and never getting what I need in return. Just because I never ask for anything (and I never do) that does not mean I don't need.I may not need your money, I may not need a place to stay, I may not need to borrow your car but I need your sup
The Dog and The Guest 2008-09-23 09:50:00 I have a question I’d like to pose to all my blogging buddies. Let’s say that you were hosting a party at your home and you had about 35 people in attendance. Also in attendance was your lovable Labrador Retriever named Roxie.All of your guests are fine with the dog but one guest seems a bit skittish around Roxie. Obviously not a dog lover.Would you ignore your guests’ uneasiness and let Ro Read more:Guest

We met at the theater and saw a great movie then decided afterward to go to a restaurant close by for dinner. Not a problem. As we are eating and enjoying ourselves we notice that some people had walked in and started setting up for what looked like a birthday party.Of course me being as nose Read more:Crazy
