Flung Up!

I was captivated from go....

Rest In Peace Hev

Life is short. Too short. You never know where your tomorrows will fall short.

Last night I was deeply saddened when my buddy text me Heavy D had passed. I was in shock. Told a few people at work and everyone else responded with the same incredulous reaction.

Forty-four is way too young... I got me to think about my own life and not taking things for granted. Not anything. Yes Lord, I woke this morning moanin' and groanin' but I'm ever so thankful you breathed another day into my lungs. Today is ultimate all we have. One sweet day at a time. Thank you Jesus.

Rest in Peace Heavy D. You will be missed.

There's Somethin' About Zac

Even before Zachary Quinto put himself out there, I was a big fan. And for what it's worth, GOOD GRIEF...I think Zac is haaaaaaaawt! LOL. It's the eyes..

Heavy Is The Head...

That Wears The Crown.

Hmph. One ain't never told a lie with that expression!

This morning and day appears to be promising. I have a busy agenda at work today, one of which is hiring two new employees to help with astronomical building work load. I already had my interviews with the candidates and have to present my facts to my supervisor this afternoon, then let personnel know. I'm responsible for this decision. Baby, I'm sweatin' bullets over it too!

It hasn't been an easy choice. Each of the candidates interviewed well, but I can only choose two. Hardest still, one interviewee is a FRIEND. I can't play favorites. I really have to separate friendship from professionalism, but dude does have a big chance of grabbing the prize. I just have to let the overall facts convince me if he's best suited for the position. Let things speak for themselves.

Lord. This is my first real test as a supervisor. What if I choose unwisely? And in this economy, good jobs are hard to come by. This is someone's life at stake, possibly! Help me Lord! LOL

Ultimately, I'm grateful for this experience. It's not an obstacle I can't overcome. Usually I'm a good judge of character. As I'm getting ready this morning, I think I already know who I'm selecting, so I'm not gonna invest anymore worry than I have to.

Wish me luck!

Good Morning

Must Not See TV

Lord, I wasted an hour of my life last night watching this drivel. I thought, OK, I like Project Runway, this should be as equally good. Wrong!

Predictable. Predictable. Predictable. I should do a spoiler alert, but if you watch any reality TV show, usually the ethnic contestants get weeded out fairly quickly. Well, quelle surprise, the voted out one of the African American woman, Cotrice. Really? What the fuck!

I wasn't surprised but more irritated when other contestants, James and Nicolina, had some shitty-shit going on. Especially Nicolina. Her equipment didn't evoke that she put any effort in it, which she didn't. She even confesses she spent three hours on it her work. Uh-hmm. Whatever.

I'm over it. Doubtful I'll watch again.

Grumpy Puss

I'm having an Alexander day, as in Alexander had a very terrible, miserable, rotten day. I woke up late and with some heavy issues on my heart. Then I had to fight with my cellphone company over some bullshizz. Why do these companies change the rules, then expect you to just blindly go along with them??? Bank Of America anyone? Well, after careful consideration, BOA reversed its debit card fees. T-mobile you need to listen!

Um, anyway... I'll try not to let my grumpiness set in all day, but I'm not guaranteeing a pleasant morning. My only consolation is going to work to drone through the day. Who'd ever thought work would be the welcomed solace? Go Fig!

Maybe I just need caffeine???

Those Moments That Make U Smile

Every now and again, someone in my life will do something that catches me completely off-guard and just makes me smile. Makes you feel appreciated and loved. Such a thing happened today with a close associate, who shall remain anonymous, and I have to break out just wonderful, sincere, smile. I am blessed. Thank you...

In Love & Hope,

Ah, Sweet November

Hopefully, you've recovered from last night's sugar high. Did you get enough treats from your tricks? LOL. Jus' playin. Halloween was a non-event last night. I had only a handful of kids stop by. Guess snow and the cold kept people in doors.

This morning it's a brand new day, new month! November is one of my favorite months. When we have a normal fall, I thoroughly enjoy the gradual change in climate as Winter preps for it's entrance, holidays around the corner, that special time with people I care about. From All Saint's Day to Thanksgiving Day, November just brings a touch of "ahhhhhh" to my life....

Happy Halloween!

Breakfast at Tiffany's Final Scene

Since I'm kinda stuck in the house tonight with damn snow, figured I'd sit down with a bag of popcorn and watch good movies. By far, Breakfast At Tiffany's is one my faves of all time... And George was kinda hot back in the day, no? LOL.

"Mooooooooon Riiiiivaaaah."

I love it.

Bromance?

I'm not sure what the context of this was, but Spidey was a bit sassy back at the Punisher!

Hmmm

So is this what really happened to the dinosaurs????

Another Work Day

I'm keeping positive this morning that today will not be a repeat of yesterday!

Work was a colossal pain in the arse and I'm not feelin' the vibe to get up, get ready, and drag myself into the lion's den for another round. But, as I said, I'm going to keep a positive outlook and pray all will be copacetic.

Rihanna - S&M

I LOVE this song! I blast this too and fro' work every day. Lord what people must think when I pull in the parking lot! Hahahaha.

There are TOO many words..

I could say thangs about this pic, but I won't.
Hehehe.
Reminds me of a friend I know up in New York.
Ahh, if only.
Yes, it truly WOULD be a good mornin'!

Make the most of it today folks...

G'Morning

I might not be gettin' the g'mornin' kiss, but by golly! I'm gettin' pancakes at Sunday Brunch with some my crew today, dammit! Hahaha. Can't wait. Been a minute since I've seen a few of my friends and I've missed their company. Additionally, last night I was playin' Stupid Cupid, trynna convince a cohort to take his boo-boo out for brunch today since they're reaching a milestone in their relationship. He laughed, but confessed he's broke as a joke...

Hm. Have some pancakes boys, then mate like rabbits!!! I'm dedicating this comic to them this morning. Bon Champs Mes Amis!

McGarbage Man!

I fell this afternoon and gave into temptation. I stopped at Mickey D's and grabbed a McRib Value Meal. To say it was a McCraptacular meal experience is an understatement. *groan* I shoulda known better but I was hungry. Had just come back from the farmer's market and was in no mood to wait.

Yuck!
