My Interests

I love reading..we have a small library in our home. Watching films that move me to laugh, scream, cry. Writing stageplays, poetry, journaling, now screenplays. Filmmaking....Acting (stage and film). Traveling....want to see the WORLD! But I may leave the cold parts out...

I'd like to meet:

Have some herbal tea with me...I got the raw honey and fresh lemon! Lauryn Hill...oops...Ms. Hill :-); Maya Angelou; Oprah Winfrey; Magic Johnson; Tonex; Spike Lee; india.arie; Fred KC Price; Joyce Meyer; Prince; Tyler Perry

Music:

Very eclectic when it comes to the sounds and my hubby is a musician so it's always going in our house! Kirk Franklin, Fred Hammond, Out of Eden, Isley Bros, Lauryn, India.Arie, Miles Davis, DC Talk, Tonex, Sade, Common and so many more

Movies:

I know people dogged it back in the day, but The Wiz is one of my favorites along with Lady Sings the Blues, Breakfast at Tiffany's or any Audrey Hepburn film, Love & B-Ball, Something's Gotta Give, Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants

Television:

Don't watch much tv at all these days...but I do try and catch the awards shows and I was feelin' "A Raisin In the Sun", although Diddy was climbing up a rocky mountain in stilettos tryin' to tackle that role!

Books:

I've been collecting books on and off since college. Currently reading Every Woman's Battle. Always trying to get some Word (Bible) in! Love Terry McMillan's Work...Queen by Alex Haley...Great Expectations...Think & Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill and Dennis Kimbro...Knight in Shining Armour by P. Bunny Wilson. There's too many to name!

Heroes:

My mama, my daddy,....slowly but surely my love my hubby my one and only Vester...my big bro Shouty Mack T-Bone T-Sconey!....And now I'm realizing Cynthia was much more to me than I knew. You are my hero...if for no other reason than YOU MADE IT TO HEAVEN before any of us did. Now you know all.

The Saints???

What in the world is going on!?!  I just heard about the apparent "assault" on Juanita Bynum by her husband, Bishop Thomas Weeks.  More likely it was a FIGHT because Juanita ain't no punk!&n...

I Take It Personal...

One thing that I have finally accepted about myself is I have a very tender sensitive heart.....things that don't even happen directly to me can touch me in ways that can be a little unnerving.  ...
