I feel so slow. I don’t know why I never made the connection that Mr. Young (my old co-worker and one of the top department heads at United way of Greater Richmond and Petersburg) was the husband of Mrs. Young one of my favorite customers here at the cleaners…EVEN THOUGH, he’s come in before. It didn’t occur to me that he was picking up what she had dropped of. The world is...
I get fed up with myself more than anything. I never have a moment of peace and quiet, not even when I am sitting in the dead silence of the world because my thoughts are always screaming loudly within me. I don’t know what to do anymore. I don’t sleep anymore, I can’t eat all I do is stress. And it’s not just one thing. It’s an accumulation.
Last night for the first...
I can't stand people who are constantly negative.

Your life can’t POSSIBLY BE THAT BAD for you to complain about something new every damn day. I mean, really. GET YOURSELF TOGETHER. Nobody likes a Debbie Downer — Positivity makes all the difference.
It’s funny how the smallest things can trigger a memory…
My tongue ran across the bottom of my tooth. The same tooth she chipped the day she came to my house looking for a fight. Because I didn’t want to hit her, because I chose not to fight the person I loved, I suffered an ass whoopin’.
Jesus turned the other cheek and so I did the same.
I buried her in the depths of...

Dear Saturday night,
Please approach briskly. I am ready to go to Slam Richmond. My life need substance right about now.
Sincerely,
An anxious soul
When Valentine's Day Comes...
goodassdick:
This is my initial feeling…
Then someone asks you if you got any gifts…
Then you hear your best friend “ironically” got back with their ex today.
Then you see the person you SHOULD be with, with someone else.
And as if the day wasn’t worse enough, some bitch comes along and jokes about you being alone. SO NOW ITS ON….
StuddedLove: Crush →
studdedl0ve:
It’s the colony of monarch butterflies hatching from their cocoons in the bowl of my stomach, the sequential tingling of every nerve in my body beginning at the spot that you touch, and the inevitable smiles we try so desperately to suppress that makes our crush so beautiful. I might have been…
All I can do is snap. That first opening sentence, WHAT!?
I’ve been passing the same “homeless” man on my way to work everyday for the past week. I always look at him, but a little voice tells me to keep going. I think it may be my subconscious more than it is the voice of God. I know that a good amount of the people who panhandle do it simply because they need the money to supply their habits. A lot of them are thieves,...
“And I would pray to God but I’m tired of lying to him
Tired of trying to run from the things inside of us
Got a lot of fam, and a lot of admirers
Who tell me that I should aspire to be changed
But when I think of changing, it’s like why do you try this shit
My mind hazy and my thoughts, they get distorted
I know my good and bad deeds both get recorded
You do right so your...
I am SO tired of hearing people blame “Eve” for the menstral period. Did she cause the menstral periods in other mammals as well? She didn’t?! Oh okay.
Sit down.
I always found last names, especially among blacks, to be interesting. My grandmothers name was Lilly Bell Flowers. I actually found out that names like Green, Black, Flowers etc etc were actually chosen by the slaves when they did not like their slave owners and refused to take on their last name. Such interesting HIStory.
What's the Tea?
So anyone who truly knows me knows that I am down for the natural lifestyle. I refuse to take medication that is absolutely unnecessary, especially when there is something all-natural that can be a natural remedy/cure. I rather be taken out back and shot, then put on medications. *laughs*
With that said… For the past year or so I’ve really been getting into teas. I’ve always...

It never fails. Everytime I make plans to go to Saturday night ROC at my church, The ROC, I don’t sleep the night before. Knowing I work a 9 hour shift that same day (every Saturday) and I barely make through that on a good day. Smh. Devil, you’re really trying me.
Random Thought
I hate that I find myself embarrassed by the appearance of young black men when in the presence of whites.
Between my mom and me. In progress
So two weeks ago I was rushed to the ER. During the whole horriffic process the phlebotomist manage to collapse and bruise two of my veins.
Me: I STILL have these bruises on my veins. I wore short sleeves today. *sighs* people were looking at me like I was either shooting up or fighting lol.
Mom: oh no! Today was cold. You are black.. They went straight to junkie!!
(assuming I'm shooting up)
-_-
Thanks mom.
Lmao.
It's been SO long since I've written.
Day dreaming and I’m thinking of you.
Day dreaming and I’m thinking of you—
The way you walk through a room—
Effortlessly captivating me with your pressence.
Your essence— simply has me in it’s grasps.
Handsome and beautiful— you are.
My mind is forever traveling back to you.
Living in past moments.
Hoping time moves forward—
So I...
Dear Failing Love...
I take one step forward in progress and three steps back in failure. What can I say…
I’m only human.
At least I’m trying to do better…I really am.
Sincerely,

I think my dad is, once again, starting to get into my mind. He basically says that I should go for things that’ll pay my bills rather than follow my dreams. I am already scared of failure. It’s my biggest fear. With Kita being so successful, and me being so behind, I have no room for it.
For the first time in quite some time I thought about going back to school for Ultrasound....
So after 9 hours in the ER, a doctor visit and enduring the most traumatic and painful night of my life, I’m trying to come around. My stomach is still in pain and I still get nauseous, but I am so grateful that the vomiting has stopped.
My hospital visit was horrible. I had a nurse that didn’t care. When I pressed the call button I was not tended to. They collapsed two of my veins...
20 ways to survive in a horror movie. →

A quick run-down should you ever find yourself trapped in a horror movie and would prefer to live to tell the tale.
1. Don’t have sex.
Seriously
Abstinence is key.
2. Don’t go out with people you’ve just met that day.
I don’t care how good he says his weed is
he is cuckoo bananas
and he wants you dead.
3. Don’t go to camp. Especially one where someone...
I just wrote her a four page letter and stuck it in her lunch box. My heart feels so airy, bubbly and giddy. She’s such a wonderful girlfriend. Despite all we go through, I am truly blessed. =)
Last night was the first night I ever looked at Kita, as she slept, and actually worried about having her fellow co-workers come to my door in the middle of the night or receiving a phone call. I watched over her as she rested. I watched the rise and fall of her chest. Visions playing in my mind as I feared for the worst, then I prayed and just put it in Gods hands. Only he knows her faith, all I...
I’m buying a Nikon. I’ve gone too long without my creative outlet. I haven’t had a camera since “that person” stole and destroyed it. Such painful memories that remain logged in the back on my mind. I lost all of my photos, my SD card, my camera, but most importantly, the last pictures ever taken of my deceased grand mother.
I refuse to go another year without a...
