We said we would dance for as long as we could. I packed all of my most colorful crayons just in case, since I've always wanted draw orange butterflies and medium pink hearts in the sky.

I'd like to meet:

Stevie Wonder of course! Again and again! I had the pleasure of seeing him perform here in Atlanta some weeks ago, amazing show!! What a surprise, and wow was I on cloud 110. I'd bought a gorgeously golden pouffy dress and heels to tall for my "99 % comfortability at all times self" I was of course way over dressed for a wet Chastain park, but who cared!!?? And if all that greatnuss wasn't enough, we had VIP passes, and got to hang out for a few minutes, take some pictures and exchange a few words. He's mad cool, yet Godly as Godly gets. The little girl in me skipped all the way home, the way she did when she 1st was introduced to his genuineness in the mid 70's. In Sweden, thanks to a wonderful Swedish woman with so much soul. Her mother. The little girl who wouldn't take her head phones off for anything, while drawing, humming and bobbing her little afro. The same way she skips now, all these years later. Whenever and wherever she hears anything from and about and influenced by Mr Wonder. Even though this was my 2nd time meeting him I'm not changing my "Who I'd like to meet" Stevie's still the man!Marvin Gaye is another someone, but I'll definitely see him later. My mom had the pleasure of being his neighbor in Detroit for many years, and she says he was just as cool and mellow as he seems. Go figure.I met Danny Glover at the airport in Copenhagen that was interesting. I didn't know what to say other than "I totally love your stuff u talented man" so I kept that to myself, and left it at "hello" with a smile attached. That worked just fine. I don't really get the whole "starstruckness". People are just people no matter what they do for a living. Some are jerks and some are great.I miss my step dad's mom.. she's an awesome lil lady and I'd like to meet her again soon. Anyone else who can influence me in a positive way are welcome to befriend me.. Teach me sumthin new! Anything I don't know, I'm eager to learn.
I've been blessed to have alot of influential and wonderful people in my life, can't begin to tell you what that means. I have friends in my close circle that I admire with all that I have. Look up to with pride to even be around and to be able to be a supportive and influential part of their lifes as well, unconditionally. Love is a beautiful thing.

Movies:

Thought provoking movies if any.. Don't really have time to watch movies too often. I absolutely love Crash though, great movie.. Antwone Fisher.. City of Angels...I cry every time. lol (Nah, seriously) Memoirs of a Geisha, beautiful.. I just saw The last king of Scotland and what a horrific and well made movie that is. I don't know why Forest has not gotten any award before this one though. He and Don Cheadle are on the top of my list of underestimated black actors. Whats up with that??? For some reason I like The fast and the furious 3,Tokyo drift!? Why? I have no idea. I guess because of the grat fashion, cool people and mad crazy cars. (I drove like a maniac all the way home from Atlantic station, that night. Shhhhhhh..)

Television:

E.R. and the give birth to baby channel. I get stuck and am totally fascinated.

Books:

Still reading the same dang book.. that's sad and means I need air.. Seriously.. what happened to "me time"? ... Love by Tony Morrison.

Heroes:

God.. strong beings who do what they say, and say what they do.. those of us who stand up for what we believe in and for whom we are, go for our dreams and actually achieve them, my son!.. truth (same thing)
Those who can take criticism, without lashing back and become defensive, to simply instead learn from it. Thats what makes bigger people.. How come so few knows this?
