On July 21, 2010, I lost my father to cancer.
He was much more than a dad.. he was my mom and my best friend too. The wounds are still fresh, and may never heal.. but I find comfort in knowing, I was truly lucky, loved and blessed.

Recently moved to Kenner (from Hawaii via Mississippi's Gulf Coast), to help clear my mind and pick up the pieces of my broken heart and life. He'd want me to keep moving forward, and so I will, with peace in my heart and determination on my mind. I love you Dad, it was a great run, and now you got the best seat in the house.
sometimes.. I wish I were back in Hawaii..
but I will admit, life (including the internet) is constant source of entertainment.
and speaking of entertainment..
I am not here to find my next love or lover
I'm not saying that it won't become something
what happens.. happens.
It's just not something I want or need in my life right now
Not everyone who is on the internet is here to find someone.
Some of us actually just pass the time on here, chat & check things out,
and then go on about our business (or what I call "real life")..
So please do not get offended if I don't want to meet you (or call you or IM/email you)..
I'm saving BOTH of us some time and energy.
Now I'm not saying I won't meet someone.. its just not my deal.
to break it down:
most people don't make it past a handful of notes (95%)
a few may get my IM - which I rarely use (3-4%)
even fewer might get my number (1-2%)
if I meet someone, they have something the rest don't, my attention..
it isn't about persistence, you just have to strike me out as someone
that is "must-know"
and that is a rarity
[my friends list consists mainly of people I know in REAL life mixed with a few long-time or otherwise interesting online comrades - so don't get offended if I decline/reject your offer]
I haven't much to say, other than that, at the moment, but, I usually speak if spoken to..
However, be forewarned.. if you come at me sideways,
expect the same in return.
HATE ME OR LOVE ME..
either way, thanks for the attention!

I've always felt like I was most beautiful right after I cried, and I've been crying a lot lately,,
R.I.P.
to William Vroom
my beloved father, mother, and best friend
You knew me better than I knew myself, sometimes, and was the only man who loved me for 34 years. Hopefully I can be half the parent you were, and be half the person you were. I know your guiding hand on my shoulder will never leave, even if I can no longer feel it. I love you dad, more than any girl ever loved her daddy!
to Marlon Rodney Harris
my beloved friend and confidante
I will see you someday, and it WILL be beautiful when I do

All the Chronic in the world couldn't mess with me..
[one of the best compliments I ever got, lol]
PS ~ I'm not as easy as you may think..
my kindness is not weakness
don't let the screen name or pictures fool you..
I'm definitely sugar and spice, but not necessarily "everything nice"
.. [:] .. .. [:] ..
I go through BP phases.. so if you leave a note and I don't answer you, I apologize, I either haven't been on in awhile or I have a lot of mail that I am sorting through..
I'm not really into the internet "meet and greet", random text messages, calls or IMs..
If you see me out and about though - stop me and say hello..
Ms. T
