The Day after Thanksgiving

Posted

Well it's 2 days later.

Thanksgiving has come and gone.

Here we all are still.

Did you do something that made you appreciate all you've got? Did you ponder on the successes and failures of your life? Did it hit you that you have the internet - essentially a big @$$ toy - while some people don't even have a home? I know I'm blessed in the things that I have, and I try often to do what I can to help others that have less. It's not really about the Day - because the... (continue reading)

Black Planet Chatrooms

Posted

Soooo I just spent about 45 minutes in 2 different chatrooms here on blackplanet. One was 30s and the other was the 40s chatroom. Now, I know that people have generic-go-nowhere sort of conversations, but quite honestly, I didn't expect to find it this afternoon. Boredom leads one to strange places I suppose, and for me that was a strange place. People that are in their 30s and 40s, I'd sort of expected them to be discussing something of a little more substance and/or import - but I was... (continue reading)

personal message

First thing's first:
A "1-click" is not a 'note' nor a substitution for 'hi, how're you?"
Friend requests will not be acknowledged if I've never spoken to you or if they come without a note
If you have the fortitude to send me a note, please at least have read my page so I don't need to answer things that are already answered.


I know I've got my tongue stuck out, it's more an expression of how I am, pretty nonchalant about things and NOT an expression of my sexual prowess, orally speaking. So, I am going to ask that you not send me notes about what tricks you think I could do on you. {even though I probably could do them* ;)

Please note: I'm married, so you don't have to keep asking me. But i LOVE to have good conversation. Being married does not preclude me from that, so hit me up, but don't ask if I am or not.

Here's me, animated & all lol


Let's see....
I've lived a pretty full life, even at 32 by now. Although my travel experience is woefully limited, I have been to NYC (isn't that where they say it's 'crackin'?) Anyway, that's it for that...

I am super ticklish, and love to be tickled,even though i tend to fight back I can't help it. You know what it is, that nerve reaction to be tickled just to the brink or whatever. lol Anyway, i'm ALWAYS down for tickling.

I love to read, All sorts of books, from Zora Neale Hurston to...Laurell K Hamilton. so, all sorts of books, one that impart knowledge and ones that are just plain old frugal fiction. I love love love to play games, board games for sure, but since I do a lot of work online and on the computer, I play mostly pc games, or games online, like dominoes and stuff like that.
I've written a bit of poetry in my time, and so I'll share 2 of them with you here, I hope if you've read this far that you enjoy them.

Directed Thoughts of a Newly Freed Woman

Just Go,
Did you think I would let you
come back in to my life
and wreck it
end it
drop it
I will not discuss this
with you
I can't be myself,
you make me feel bad
about how you've caused me pain
in my heart,
in my head
thoughts of you leaving
and I wish you would
Just Go.

The Edge


Standing on the edge of forever,
forgeting what went before,
I've never stopped to think-what lies ahead?
I dont know when I'll die,
I don't if I'll wake up - tomorrow
I wonder if my life will continue-in vain
What affect am I having?
Is someone smiling today...
because of something I said to them
when they were having an ugly day?
Does the space I take up
Alter someone's path,
or am I merely here
taking up space
as an oxygen thief?
I'll admit to being no great mind
I'll admit to being a little selfish
but I hope that someone will catch me
if I step off of this cliff
while I'm standing here,
on the edge of forever.


The main reason I'm here is because I LOVE to meet people and talk to new people. It's just the best way I can think of to begin to network. Not only that, but meeting and speaking with new people often leads to one learning more about one's self. I'm generally very interested in learning more about myself - aren't you? I hope learning more about myself will lead me to being a better individual. *shrug* it's my hope anyway.


Following are 2 events that I personally feel changed the atmosphere of comic books, both the Marvel Universe and the DCU

The marriage of the Wakandan King: T'Challa & X-Man Ororo Munroe. Oh my goodness, uniting the PRIVATE NO OUTSIDERS ALLOWED kingdom of Wakanda with Ororo, who is African but who's main roots and severe loyalty lies in the States. I loved when this happened.

Wonder Woman, who's main mission ispeace...takes the life of this dirtbag that would have sent Supes all over the world killing and doing dirty work. (Supes walks right into things and just ISN'T very 'people savvy as it is anyway)


Some Questions someone asked of me, and I thought I`d share the answers with you:

  • What's the greatest physical pleasure in the world for you?
    • Two things...tall cold grass under my bare beet and between my toes and the warm bubble bath that I'm sure to take later that night and soaking w/ my page-turner-can't-put-it-down book.
  • What would you rather have: A 50 degree day or a 105 degree day?
    • 105 degree day
  • What's your favorite candy?
    • CHICO STIX BABY!!!



Question: Why do so many people automatically regress to a sillified manner of speaking when typing? Does spelling and grammar go out of the window just because we're online? If i have witnessed 5 conversations with "da" for "the' or "gurl" for "girl" or "dey" for "they", I've witnessed 500.

People, lets try and maintain some dignity, some level of intelligence. Don't dummy yourself down because you think it's cool, because it's not. At all.


These are images of my chosen method of the preservation of my family memories. They're scrapbook pages, created digitally. I hope you enjoy them. If you'd like to see larger images of them, just let me know. I love showing off the girls. This is just one page, others are in my photos section.

These are images of the way I choose to instill pride and knowledge of African America History in my daughters. I prefer rather than just talk to them, to incorporate my art (scrapbooking) with the history. I hope you enjoy these slides. They're the beginnings of the first personal book of African American heritage I'm creating for my daughters. Here's one of the pages, you can see the others in my "photos" section. I would love to know what you think of them.
