Shaken...Not Stirred

      I have had a rough week... in fact it seems that I had a beautiful nightmare. One of those weeks where you want to repeatedly pinch yourself to see if it's real. On Monday I got a phone call that I just landed a position at a new job and that same night I was robbed at gunpoint. #KanyeShrug. I hope they needed it more than I did.

       All I can say is that it is good to be alive. A phone and a wallet are replaceable. It's just metal, leather and a few strips of plastic. I still have my health, my new job, great friends and family and most importantly my life. This is just another road block that I have encountered and conquered in life. In this jungle we live in where the monkeys roam free, the hyenas never sleep and the vultures linger around to pluck whatever is left of humanity the only thing we can really do is survive. 

     Jay and Ye weren't lying. There is No Church in the Wild. Let's just say I'm a firm believer in karma and there is no doubt that we get back what we put into this life. I'm over it. People...I swear, need to get themselves some business and stay out of mine. I'm singing in my head "If I ruled the world"..

Until tomorrow comes take care for now,

Fall... in Love?

     Well here we are, October has come thru with a vengeance! We have had a chilly weekend here in the DMV complete with hoodies, jackets, coats, knitwear and lots of layering. Needless to say I was out in the mess enjoying every bit of it. I honestly couldn't wait for the Fall weather so I could dress warm and get cozy on those chilly nights. Football anyone?

     Fall is that time of year for comfort food, chunky sweaters, and boo loving. That's correct, "boo loving".

I know many of folk who are looking for a "boo" to keep them warm during these cooler months...and I don't blame them. It's nice to have someone to cuddle up with after a long day of being out in the elements. As Bill Withers would say "we all need somebody to lean on". Well, just don't lean on ME lol. In all seriousness it's is so easy to fall in love during the Fall.

     Fall is when mother nature shows off her beauty. Trees shed their once green leafs in exchange for shades of orange and hues of brown leaves that dance gracefully in the wind. People literally seem to come out of the woodwork after the summer is long gone and the muscle shirts and short shorts are put away. There are many potential boyfriends, girlfriends and lovers who are single and looking for something to hold onto. Some are happy being single and a good book and a hot drink will get them through those cold nights. But if you're like me and have been single for a while then this is the opportunity to get to know someone "special".

     Some of us are looking for temporary companionship and some are looking for the long term. But whatever you are looking for, just make sure it's worth the fall.

P.S. It's breast cancer awareness month. Oh, and GO RAVENS!!!

HEAT WAVE 2011

 

Well here I am, I survived the heat wave that hit up and down the east coast. Temperatures sky rocketed to 103 degrees with heat index's up to 127. Although it has grown to more comfortable temperature in the DMV I still feel as if this heat wave is not over. We shall see. Until then you will find me indoors with the a/c on full blast. I like being wet, but not with sweat.. well maybe. ;-) 

April Fools.

Here it is again...another rather useless day and one of the most nautical days of the year; April Fools Day. Well I have been feeling pretty down lately. So sorry for the #Hiatus. I am typing on my phone at the moment because there seems to be an issue with my browser and my blog. I am still alive though!

It is officially Spring and the weather is fine! I love this time of year where I can just throw on my favorite pair of jeans and a tee (bring a cardigan or a little jacket for the evening) and just relax. It feels good to just kick back just as long as no one pulls a chair out from under me and geers "April Fools". lol Thats not cool. But I could not be happier if I was to fall back onto the lush green grass and lay there staring at the clouds and breathing slowly looking into the sun. Can you imagine that? This is a moment where time would stand still and I could be carefree. A moment that would take my breath away and all that stress from the big city.

I don't believe I have written about my experience at the Freedom Tour featuring headliner Alicia Keys with special guests Robin Thicke and Melanie Fiona. Here's to all three a of the very talented artists. Thank you for stopping past the DMV. They performed an excellent show!


I hope everything works out between my blogger and my browser. That way I can add fun little pictures and everyone will be happy! Enjoy the Spring. Pull some pranks. Remember to always play safe but most importantly have fun!

Until next time,
