About Me

Men Who Say It Cannot Be Done Need to Stop Interrupting The Women Doing It! -Confucious If you don't know, now you know n****... "Analog girl in a digital world"- I still text letter for letter (T9 confuses me). Most people that see me and don't take the time to speak would be sweetly surprised. I am pretty easy going but if you know me, don't correct me- it just not nice! I only squint because I am NOT wearing my glasses Not because I am mean mugging you. I guess a lot of people think I have problems with them- maybe they didn't like my attitude. I don't even think about those people tho because to know me is to love me. I am fearlessly loyal even to those who don't deserve it. I am a grown up now- full fledged mother of two. I work and pay bills and everything! So be sure that I am not the same person you knew two years ago- hell I am not the same person you knew two weeks ago! I will say i have many, many blonde moments- I can be a little in the clouds! I love my little family and although they make in eternally CRAZY they are my LIFE! But some things about me never change email me to find out... PUT YOUR ABOUT ME SECTION HERE!

My Interests

I like putting people down, dating felons, kicking cats, running down old ladies- just your everyday a**hole- Just Kidding!! I love nature and exploration of all kinds. Anything that centers around children- since I have two and like things center towards the young mind; must be the adult ADD. I love to learn and plan to be a teacher soon- yes it took me many years and many majors but I will join the ranks of the poor and heartless profession of Educator. SO lock up your kids because I believe in corporal punishment. My chick-a-dees keep me going- that is : Jo Jo and My little Monique (yes i did). I love Changing my mind, being indecisive OH YEAH and World Domination. My girls, my boys, romance, writing anecdotes, poetry (not by me...see?), people watching, trying new things, meeting new poeple.Confusing YOU, laughing like Grace Jones, being an enigma and work in progress.Doing what I do... So don't get mad if I am not fucking with you...Or you...Just my CREW!

I'd like to meet:

All my old friends but really...Justin T- I love you Justin! Josephine Baker, Ann Wilson (she is close to home), Maya Angelou, Angela Davis, Marcus Garvey, Huey P. Newton, Micheal Jackson (maybe I could get through to him) and for Pop culture's sake- T.I. I met and got to interview Tupac at Summer Jam '94 so that just about fulfilled my wishes!! No shit! **Right Brainers and Maintainers** PUT YOUR I'D LIKE TO MEET SECTION HERE! Changes may take up to 2 mins to show on your profileView All Friends | View Blog | Add Comment

Music:

Music! I would be .. forever if i really wrote about my love of it- I know I have a few standbys but the range is ridiculous and somewat generic: ANYTHING that Redman blessed the mike on, Rick James BITCH (anything that MF touched turned to listenable from that era), Teena Marie (I'm talking Square Biz to ya baby), Zero 7 ( I have kids and they keep me Zen), Heart (my true Bitches), Talib Kweli,Hi- Tek, Black Starr, Blackalicous Mac Drizay all fu**ing Dizzay, Nas (Illmatic may be one of the Greatest TRUE hip hip albums of all time- along with Dare Izza Darkside). I really thought Nelly Furtado hard wired my brain when her first album dropped. Lil' Kim (is it cool to like her still?). I don't care who are the she is one of the baddest Females lyricist- well next to Da Brat.RED HOT CHILLI PEPPERS- 4ever! Incubus, Green Day (since Dookie), Lullaby Baxter, Kimya Dawson. Harry Connick Jr. (PRE Will & Grace), Zydeco on a Sunday, Portugese FADO- Ana Moura is the queen. World music is King! What else can I say? Have a look at THIS TIGHT PLAYER and you can see my crazy tastes AFTER MUCH TIME AND CONSIDERATION I will name a few I overlooked: DJ Quick, Rakim, No Doubt, GUY

Movies:

Gramma's Boy might be the best film ever made! "Monkey NOOOOO!"Pulp Fiction- shoot anything that nice man Quentin T does. Strange Brew- has anyone else heard of it? Purple Rain, Beat Street, Breaking and Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo, Love Jones, Life is Beautiful, The Royal Tennenbaums,The Muppets Take Manhattan, Ninja Turtles I-III, anything with Jack Black, FRIDAY! Black and whites: Hitchcock, Fellini, Ginger Roger and Fred Astaire movies, all glamourous old movies with real movie stars...

Books:

Um I have read over 50 this year alone and have a bit of an Obession with reading so where in the heck do I start with that? David Sedaris, Amy Tan, Marjane Storapi (Persepolis), Walter Mosely on and on. Anyone who observes the human function in an absolutely beautiful, complex ways...

Heroes:

My mother- the only one who ever cared which way I was going and the only one able to tell me to sit the Fu** down. My beautiful son and daughter who just don't know how lucky they are. Women that found Mr. Right and didn't settle for less.

My Blog

I am in my own mind

So I wonder why there is such an emphasis on Bull Shit in everyone's life at the present moment?? Can anyone anser that? I am trying to make my life less complicated but complications seem to find me....
