About Me

These are three of my favorite lines, quotes, passages, from books. Can you guess what two books they are from? If you know me you can probably figure out why I like them so much.

"You looking good."
"Devil's confusion. He lets me look good long as I feel bad."

and then there is

If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast.

and finally


One is a mother in order to understand the inexplicable. One is a mother to lighten the darkness. One is a mother to shield when lighting streaks the night, when thunder shakes the earth, when mud bogs one down. One is a mother in order to love without beginning or end.

My Interests

My latest interest is stained glass. I wish I had a house on a beach with a sunroom because that is where I would spend all of my time, working on stained glass projects that I designed myself. I have always loved to read. Working on my English Literature degree was probably one of the best times of my life. I was able to read all day and write all night. Too bad it doesn’t pay. I keep saying I should have gone to Beauty School. Do you know how much it cost for a black woman to get her hair done!!!!!!!
You Should Drive a Jaguar XK 4.2
You don't care how you get there as long as you get there with class.
And having a little power doesn't hurt either! What 2007 Car Should You Drive?

I'd like to meet:

It has been my experience that once you meet someone they usually aren't what you imagined them to be, but, since you asked...... I would like to meet the illustrator Jerry Pinkney and watch him work. I would like to meet Denzel Washington and watch him work, and finally, I would like to have a long afternoon lunch with Toni Morrison, and Walter Mosley.

Music:

Don't Say What You Won't Do, and Can't Let Go--Anthony Hamilton

I just love all that Anthony Hamilton does.

Movies:

Just about anything with Denzel Washington in it. Except for "Training Day" He was just toooooo bad in that movie.

Love and Basketball is probably one of the few movies I can watch over and over again.

Tyler Perry's plays on DVD. Do they count as "Movies"?
