I’ll Be Seeing Poppies After All
IMG_0146,originally uploaded by Shavonne. I was almost worried that the lack of rain this winter would mean no poppies to photograph. But, it’s been raining and raining hard and I’m happy about that because I love green or any color besides tan or brown and plants other than tumbleweeds. I can’t wait until the poppy [...]
G-d, Please Save Me From Your Followers
Christianity, Judaism, Islam and any other religion I?m too lazy to mention are 24-hour, 7-days-a-week religions and lifestyles. They are not a part time gigs! If you?re Christian, you don?t believe part of what the Bible says, you believe the whole book, not this verse or that passage, but whole thing from cover to cover! [...]
The Olympics
When I was at the dentist getting my oral pearls look at, I had the opportunity to check out Curling. I think Finland beat Canada or at least they were in the lead. I don’t have much to say about it other than I think it’s the dumbest fricken sport on the planet (besides cheerleading).
Madea’s Family Reunion
I went to see it today. There was a whole lot of slapping in the movie. I actually felt the very first slap. I love grits, especially mixed with scrambled eggs and cheese. Are all successful and wealthy men in Atlanta assholes?
Blog Themes
There’s really no theme to my blog. I write about what I don’t want to keep in my head. My apologies for being inconsiderate. I know you don’t want to read crap all the time. I certainly don’t. But someone brought it to my attention that I’m always writing about being single. It’s kind of [...]
Got Gmail?
I’ve got 100 invites to google’s email service gmail. I’ve been using gmail for almost two years now and I love it. I have over 2 GB of storage and the people at google as added an IM service to gmail. I’ve tried all the email providers and I have to say that gmail is [...]
Men Often Wonder….
I used to have a membership with match.com. I don’t know why I joined, oh wait I do, my friend joined and told me it’s a great way to meet men from outside the Antelope Valley. So I gave it a try. I got plenty of responses but I think it had something to do [...]
Breaking Ties
I was supposed to meet the Asian guy on Saturday but I called him Friday night and told him I wouldn’t make it. My number one reason for telling him hanging out would be impossible was because of school and my second reason was just because I didn’t have the desire to. I don’t think [...]
The New Look
What do you think? I’m not done with it. The rest of the things I’m going to change will happen over time. I would like to change my fonts and move my profile to the left side (so I can change my pic) but make the box go all the way across to the right. [...]
Something New
I actually saw Something New the Friday it came out and I enjoyed it very much. Though I’m not looking for any kind of relationship, it was nice to see a black woman, even if it was fictional, find some lovin. With that said, I think I will work on rearranging some elements of my [...]
The Boss
Today my boss asked about my love life. It really isn’t none of her business but I knew why she wanted to know. She’s not very happy being married. Her husband works long hours and is rarely at home. She figured with me being single that I would have something good to report. Sadly I [...]
Happy Single Awareness Day!!
I’m single and aware of it. Now you’re aware of it and you know what else? I’m happy about it.
I Hate Dating
After exchanging emails and a couple of phone calls, I decided to meet the Asian guy. He wanted to meet in a bar but since I don?t drink I suggested we meet at the Getty Center on Saturday. Like our phone conversations, our first meeting was very boring and almost juvenile. There’s nothing that turns [...]
Firewall
I went to see Firewall starring Harrison Ford this weekend. I don’t have much to say about the movie other than the fact that you can’t put 10,000 songs on an iPod mini. How lazy of the writers of this movie!! Couldn’t they have done some research? How could they use a popular MP3 player [...]
Supporting the Troops
I read blogs of all kinds, especially political blogs. I can?t help it. I like them. They happen to be my favorite. It doesn?t matter if they are conservative or liberal or whether I agree with them or not, just as long as the quality of the writing is good. Being an Army veteran, I [...]
Houseplants
A coworker gave me two houseplants a few months ago. Both are flowering houseplants which produce a pretty Lilly-like flower. The larger plant is flourishing and has two new white flowers. The smaller, however, is not doing so well. Two weeks ago I watered both plants before leaving for work in the morning. When I [...]
Smartbargains
I’ve discovered I have a love for shopping, at least shopping on the internet. I recently bought this fantabulous dress a Smartbargains. I’m so excited! It’s all a part of a makeover I’ve decided to be one of my New Year’s resolutions. It will give me a reason to shave my legs and get a [...]
Posting
I can’t believe how long it’s been since I last posted. I vowed never to go longer than a week but unfortunately my high speed wireless internet is down. I could get on the Dell but I absolutely hate Dells and dial-up is too dang slow. I love my Mac. In the last week I’ve [...]
