Saturday Night Movies and Stuff!

2006-07-22T23:49:00.000-07:00

Hey guys!!! How's it been hanging? Baby and I went to see "Lady In the Water" earlier.. M. Knight was actually in this one! I think he should be in more of his films. Ron Howard's daughter starred in it as a "Narf"..you'll understand if you go see it.. But, like most M. Knight films, it takes a certain palate..
We're watching "My Baby's Daddy" on DVD right now. So far, SOOOO FUNNY!!! Michael Imperioli from "Sopranos' is in this. He's pretty good in a comedic capacity!
Anyway..not much going on..just enjoying "movie night" with Baby.. ;-)
love and hugs all!

Hey guys!! I'm hanging out watching "cops'..my mom just left today and she's flying all day.. I miss her so much already!! I only get to see her twice a year so... we talk all the time, but, to get that mom hug means everything to me..She took over my radio show for two nights. LOL she loved it! I'm tired as all hell, but, I"m going to try to stay awake until after the show. I don't like to sleep while mom's flying.. so, i'll probably be blogging like a nutcase today

Juneteenth

2006-06-19T19:17:00.000-07:00

Juneteenth is the oldest known celebration commemorating the ending of slavery in the United States. Dating back to 1865, it was on June 19th that the Union soldiers, led by Major General Gordon Granger, landed at Galveston, Texas with news that the war had ended and that the enslaved were now free. Note that this was two and a half years after President Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation - which had become official January 1, 1863. The Emancipation Proclamation had little impact on the Texans due to the minimal number of Union troops to enforce the new Executive order. However, with the surrender of General Lee in April of 1865, and the arrival of General Granger’s regiment, the forces were finally strong enough to influence and overcome the resistance.
Later attempts to explain this two and a half year delay in the receipt of this important news have yielded several versions that have been handed down through the years. Often told is the story of a messenger who was murdered on his way to Texas with the news of freedom. Another, is that the news was deliberately withheld by the enslavers to maintain the labor force on the plantations. And still another, is that federal troops actually waited for the slave owners to reap the benefits of one last cotton harvest before going to Texas to enforce the Emancipation Proclamation. All or none of them could be true. For whatever the reason, conditions in Texas remained status quo well beyond what was statutory.
General Order Number 3
One of General Granger’s first orders of business was to read to the people of Texas, General Order Number 3 which began most significantly with:
"The people of Texas are informed that in accordance with a Proclamation from the Executive of the United States, all slaves are free. This involves an absolute equality of rights and rights of property between former masters and slaves, and the connection heretofore existing between them becomes that between employer and free laborer."
The reactions to this profound news ranged from pure shock to immediate jubilation. While many lingered to learn of this new employer to employee relationship, many left before these offers were completely off the lips of their former 'masters' - attesting to the varying conditions on the plantations and the realization of freedom. Even with nowhere to go, many felt that leaving the plantation would be their first grasp of freedom. North was a logical destination and for many it represented true freedom, while the desire to reach family members in neighboring states drove the some into Louisiana, Arkansas and Oklahoma. Settling into these new areas as free men and women brought on new realities and the challenges of establishing a heretofore non-existent status for black people in America. Recounting the memories of that great day in June of 1865 and its festivities would serve as motivation as well as a release from the growing pressures encountered in their new territory. The celebration of June 19th was coined "Juneteenth" and grew with more participation from descendants. The Juneteenth celebration was a time for reassuring each other, for praying and for gathering remaining family members. Juneteenth continued to be highly revered in Texas decades later, with many former slaves and descendants making an annual pilgrimage back to Galveston on this date.
Juneteenth Festivities and Food
A range of activities were provided to entertain the masses, many of which continue in tradition today. Rodeos, fishing, barbecuing and baseball are just a few of the typical Juneteenth activities you may witness today. Juneteenth almost always focused on education and self improvement. Thus often guest speakers are brought in and the elders are called upon to recount the events of the past. Prayer services were also a major part of these celebrations.
Certain foods became popular and subsequently synonymous with Juneteenth celebrations such as strawberry soda-pop. More traditional and just as popular was the barbecuing, through which Juneteenth participants could share in the spirit and aromas that their ancestors - the newly emancipated African Americans, would have experienced during their ceremonies. Hence, the barbecue pit is often established as the center of attention at Juneteenth celebrations.
Food was abundant because everyone prepared a special dish. Meats such as lamb, pork and beef which not available everyday were brought on this special occasion. A true Juneteenth celebrations left visitors well satisfied and with enough conversation to last until the next.
Dress was also an important element in early Juneteenth customs and is often still taken seriously, particularly by the direct descendants who can make the connection to this tradition's roots. During slavery there were laws on the books in many areas that prohibited or limited the dressing of the enslaved. During the initial days of the emancipation celebrations, there are accounts of former slaves tossing their ragged garments into the creeks and rivers to adorn clothing taken from the plantations belonging to their former 'masters'.
Juneteenth and Society
In the early years, little interest existed outside the African American community in participation in the celebrations. In some cases, there was outwardly exhibited resistance by barring the use of public property for the festivities. Most of the festivities found themselves out in rural areas around rivers and creeks that could provide for additional activities such as fishing, horseback riding and barbecues. Often the church grounds was the site for such activities. Eventually, as African Americans became land owners, land was donated and dedicated for these festivities. One of the earliest documented land purchases in the name of Juneteenth was organized by Rev. Jack Yates. This fund-raising effort yielded $1000 and the purchase of Emancipation Park in Houston, Texas. In Mexia, the local Juneteenth organization purchased Booker T. Washington Park, which had become the Juneteenth celebration site in 1898. There are accounts of Juneteenth activities being interrupted and halted by white landowners demanding that their laborers return to work. However, it seems most allowed their workers the day off and some even made donations of food and money. For decades these annual celebrations flourished, growing continuously with each passing year. In Booker T. Washington Park, as many as 20,000 African Americans once flowed through during the course of a week, making the celebration one of the state’s largest.
Juneteenth Celebrations Decline
Economic and cultural forces provided for a decline in Juneteenth activities and participants beginning in the early 1900’s. Classroom and textbook education in lieu of traditional home and family-taught practices stifled the interest of the youth due to less emphasis and detail on the activities of former slaves. Classroom text books proclaimed Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation of January 1, 1863 as the date signaling the ending of slavery - and little or nothing on the impact of General Granger’s arrival on June 19th.
The Depression forced many people off the farms and into the cities to find work. In these urban environments, employers were less eager to grant leaves to celebrate this date. Thus, unless June 19th fell on a weekend or holiday, there were very few participants available. July 4th was the already established Independence holiday and a rise in patriotism steered more toward this celebration.
Resurgence
The Civil Rights movement of the 50’s and 60’s yielded both positive and negative results for the Juneteenth celebrations. While it pulled many of the African American youth away and into the struggle for racial equality, many linked these struggles to the historical struggles of their ancestors. This was evidenced by student demonstrators involved in the Atlanta civil rights campaign in the early 1960’s, whom wore Juneteenth freedom buttons. Again in 1968, Juneteenth received another strong resurgence through Poor Peoples March to Washington D.C.. Rev. Ralph Abernathy’s call for people of all races, creeds, economic levels and professions to come to Washington to show support for the poor. Many of these attendees returned home and initiated Juneteenth celebrations in areas previously absent of such activity. In fact, two of the largest Juneteenth celebrations founded after this March are now held in Milwaukee and Minneapolis.
Texas Blazes the Trail
On January 1, 1980, Juneteenth became an official state holiday through the efforts of Al Edwards, an African American state legislator. The successful passage of this bill marked Juneteenth as the first emancipation celebration granted official state recognition. Representative Edwards has since actively sought to spread the observance of Juneteenth all across America.
Juneteenth In Modern Times
Throughout the 80’s and 90’s Juneteenth has continued to enjoy a growing and healthy interest from communities and organizations throughout the country. Institutions such as the Smithsonian, the Henry Ford Museum and others have begun sponsoring Juneteenth-centered activities. In recent years, a number of National Juneteenth Organizations have arisen to take their place along side older organizations - all with the mission to promote and cultivate knowledge and appreciation of African American history and culture.
Juneteenth today, celebrates African American freedom while encouraging self-development and respect for all cultures. As it takes on a more national and even global perspective, the events of 1865 in Texas are not forgotten, for all of the roots tie back to this fertile soil from which a national day of pride is growing. The future of Juneteenth looks bright as the number of cities and states come on board and form local committees and organizations to coordinate the activities. Communication and networking is vital. A sharing of lessons learned throughout all organizations will help expedite this growth while minimizing waste and risks. The Juneteenth.com website can play a vital role in these efforts. Thus, it is important to communicate its existence to one and all. Contact your local Juneteenth organizer if you do not see them listed within and let them know about this site. There is no cost for organizations to post their Juneteenth festivities at the website.

That's the only way to get my strength back..I just have to be careful..re-injury would suck... I won't let that happen.. I'll try not to anyway.. Pray for me! Please!!! What's the deal? I tried to start a new paragraph and it wouldn't let me! What's going on? Hmm....Well, I hope you're all having a great day!

He was in his thirties.. alcohol.. Rest in Peace buddy.. Baby and I met them when we first moved to Vegas. They were our neighbors. For like 2 years, so, we had formed a nice friendship with Sheryl. John used to make me laugh. The doctors warned him to stop, but, he couldn't or wouldn't.. I still can't believe it though. Seems very odd that our bodies can cave to the pressures of alcohol so young! Makes you think you know?

10 Dirtiest Foods That Can Make You Sick
Open your refrigerator. Take a good look inside. Chances are you have some of the dirtiest--and most dangerous--foods in there. Eat them and you could get very sick.
Men's Health magazine has identified the 10 dirtiest foods--from bad burgers and dangerous deli meats to hazardous health foods.
The Dirty 10:
1. ChickenIn one study cited by Men's Health, more than 40 percent of chicken samples contained bacteria that can sicken, including E. coli.
2. Ground BeefSimply because of the way ground beef is made through heavy processing, it has the potential to be loaded with deadly E. coli bacteria and more.
3. Ground TurkeyOne in four packages of ground turkey tested by Men's Health contained bacteria. This becomes a greater concern as more people substitute ground turkey for ground beef thinking it's a healthier alternative.
4. OystersBeware of raw oysters! Many are tainted not only with bacteria, but also the Norovirus.
5. EggsThe incredible edible egg is also associated with more than 600,000 cases of food poisoning each year and more than 300 deaths. Cook eggs completely and never eat them raw.
6. CantaloupeCantaloupe rinds often contain dangerous bacteria that are hard to wash away. Cut through that rind with a knife and the bacteria can be transferred to the fruit.
7. PeachesThis favorite juicy summer fruit is dangerous because the peach fuzz makes it difficult to clean off all the pesticides.
8. Pre-Packaged Tossed SaladsThese bagged salads are one of the greatest conveniences of the past decade, but they can also be one of the biggest sources of food poisoning since the contents are often contaminated with E. Coli, according to Men's Health.
9. Cold CutsIt looks like delicious shaved ham or turkey to you. But it could contain the dangerous bacteria Listeria, which is especially risky for infants and the elderly. Listeria can be spread by the deli slicer, and it can even grow in a cold refrigerator. What can you do? Experts advise you to transfer the deli meat to a fresh package when you get home and only buy enough for one week at a time.
10. ScallionsIf these green onions are left uncooked, they have the potential to become bacterial breeding grounds. They've also been linked to fatal outbreaks of Hepatitis-A.

Happy Valentine's Day One Day Early!!!

2006-02-13T12:17:00.000-08:00

Hey guys!! Happy Valentine's Day from Baby and I!!! I know it's not until tomorrow, but, why put off for tomorrow what you can do today?? Right? ;-)

Hey! Did I tell you guys I got a body ball the other day? OMG This thing is so much fun!! Once I got secure on it and stopped rolling all over the damned thing like a spaz, it worked out great! My tummy even hurts from crunching!!

I tried playing raquetball the other day and I still can't lunge!!! AARRGGHHH! I can run and everything else, I just can't lunge.. So, until I can lunge..no dance..boo mother fucking hoo!!

Anyway buds.. I'm gonna go and chill until Baby gets back.. we're going to go and play some basketball.. I suck, but it's so fun.. Plus! I can tell, my body is softening from not going to dance class. Baby says it's not, but, I feel fat.. You should see me kicking my soccer ball around just so that I'm FORCED to run! LOL! Like those dogs who chase the rabbits!! I can't wait to get out there!!!
Love you guys!!!

Mystic River

2006-02-08T16:44:00.000-08:00

Hey guys! I'm hanging out.. Just got back from the pool with Baby, it's beautiful outside! 70 degrees and way too sunny for words.. We started off in the hot tub, and ended up out by the pool. Baby wanted to get some color.. Whew! But, I had to give the girl some support. She's one of those really "white" white girls, you know what I mean? A sister felt like she was gonna pass out though! LOL

Anyway, I got a nice hot shower when we got back to the crib, and now I'm hanging out, checking in on the news (online) and watching "Mystic River".. What a great movie! Sean Penn is soo awesome! I love that guy.. Shame about his brother.. Remember "The Outsiders"?? OMG! Talk about eyecandy! That movie was loaded! Loved it!!!!

Well, Coretta Scott King was buried yesterday.. Cody Posey was convicted today.. What a week..

16 years old and nothing to really look forward to. That's a tough life right there! 14 years old and a murderer. All because he was abused and the adults around him didn't take action.. See, that pisses me off! When they noticed that the boy's situation was fucked, why not intervene then? Why wait until he's "snapped" and killed everybody!? Anyway.... I love kids, and I feel like we (as a society) don't invest enough into them... It seems like whenever there is a tragedy like this, we find out about all these signs! What the hell??

Sue Ann Ray's body was just found, and her husband has been arrested. Damn.. What the fuck is going on?

I'm gonna go watch Nancy Grace to get the update. sad...

XOXOXO

Wondering What Will Happen To Cody Posey...

2006-02-07T14:11:00.000-08:00

Hey guys! I'm hanging out watching Court TV.. I've been following this Cody Posey case.. The jury in deliberations right now. Poor kid.. Cattle prodded, hit, abused for so long. It's a wonder he didn't snap sooner! I think the toughest thing for the defense though, is the fact that he killed his step-sister too. But, I'm sure he just went off.. She was there, and she was part of his problem in his mind. This kid is 16.. He was 14 when the murders happened.. Damn! So young...

This morning, I watched "The Slave Narratives" on HBO.. It's the one narrated by Whoopie and Jasmine Guy, Ossie Davis and others.. So touching and educational..
The fact that their journals survived is awesome....We actually have the opportunity to learn first hand what the institution of slavery did to us not only as a country, but as human beings..

Hey! I haven't heard from Lauren in a while.. Shame I don't have a "link" list, or I'd fo and say hi.. Tell her hey will ya?

Anyway guys.. I'm gonna go surfing for a while, and wait for this verdict. Hopefully it will come down today..
XOXOXO

Milk Allergy

2006-02-06T04:30:00.000-08:00

What a wierd thought eh? Milk allergy.. This explains why I am awake at ten til five in the morning. Granted, I love the night, but, I was sleeping peacefully when I was awakened by a searing pain in my tummy.. YIKES!! I should have known better.. This weekend, I've been drinking milk like it's going out of style. See, sometimes it doesn't bother me..Then, there are times when I feel like my only alternative is to go and puke. Which I won't do! One time, it just came out! Thank God I made it to the bathroom!! Damn! I took a few lactaid, and drank a couple of Cokes.. I'm feeling a little better. It's the kind of nausea that SUCKS!! Well, ALL nausea sucks.. But, when you ingest dairy, and your body cannot or will not digest it..It's just a whole different ball game.. SO UNKOOL!!!

A Million Little Pieces

2006-02-02T09:03:00.000-08:00

Hey guys!! How's it going? I haven't updated for a few days. Shame on me! Baby took me up to the mountain on Sunday. To the hot springs. I can't believe that there are actually natural hot springs near Vegas! It really was a fluke one day when I just googled. Baby's parents have been doing the "hot spring" thing for over 30 years. So, I was just like, why the hell not? Now, it's my thing!!! The stars were so bright, and the springs were so hot! Oh Baby!!!

Baby got the book "A Million Little Pieces" for the trip. In case I wanted to read while she got some much needed rest. This is a great fuckin book let me tell ya! I figure I won't go to the smoking gun until I'm done, so I don't ruin the illusion. It's great so far though. I'll definitely save it for my kids to read!! Shame that he had to lie to get it out there. I wonder if he weren't a bit more patient he could have sold it as fiction, or a novel. Well, it really doesn't seem long enough to be a novel, but, he definitely could have put an author's note in ther. Who knows? I got a copy with the Oprah stamp on it, so I figure that at least it's a collector's copy. LOL! ;-)

Anyway buds..Gonna go surfin USA for a while. Love ya's!!!
xoxoxoxoxo

LIFETIME..

2006-01-28T11:22:00.000-08:00

Hey guys!! Happy Saturday!! I'm hanging out..Now watching Lifetime movies.. Good times! Baby and I went to the Sahara last night after work and got home this morning. I love that about Vegas. You can go out amd have fun, and sleep all day and not feel bad about it.. YAAY! When I go home, I get so bored with the darkness and the quiet. I love home though. There is no place like it right?

I think I'd like to live in Alaska one day. Just for Baby's sake.. She loves snow and the cold and all that stuff.. Spent a lot of time in Colorado. It would be kool to do the radio show from a lighthouse there. I'd do that! I'd never go outside, but, at least I'd have a pretty view and my Baby right there. Can you imagine? From Vegas to Alaska? LOL Talk about culture shock!

I want to live in as many places as I can before the Old Man calls me home, you know? maybe a couple of years in Europe, a year in Africa (good luck getting Baby to move to Africa!) I barely got her out of Texas! LOL

There is just so much to see and to learn. I don't want to miss anything. I want to soak it all in..Every ray of sunlight. Even if it is in the middle of the night. ;-)

I've been out of dance for over five weeks now. Donna, the owner of my school says that I need to go way easy. No rushes..No tears.. Hackysak is my new sport now!! YAAYYY! It' a great way to gain your strength and mobility back after a groinpull or kneejoint injury. Can you tell I've been reading up?

I can feel the sandman throwing sand into my eyes left and right! Baby is smart. She went to bed right after we got home. Well, actually, about a half an hour later, because we were on the phone with my engineer Theresa. She is back east having James tested.. If you know anyone with a microcephalic child, you can imagine the medical hell that she goes through..

Hey! Sum, if you read this, get in touch with me..I'm a bit worried..Well, a lot actually!!

Best Laid Plans..

2006-01-25T01:02:00.000-08:00

Hey guys!! What's up? Baby and I are hanging out, watching a little tv before we go hang out at the hot tub. Damn I love going in there.. I love heat, period.. And it looks so romantic, the way the steam rises and just kind of floats away from the bubbles.. I can't wait until this movie goes off. Baby is like.. When this movie goes off, I'm going to bed.. LOL!! She, unlike me, keeps a "normal" bedtime..

I feel like I haven't been over here in like forever. Damn! Hey! I started an account at MySpace. What the hell? That place is so huge! My blog is called Schree`s Sandbox, so if you're over there give me a shout!

Anyway buds..I'm gonna go and check in on ya!! ;-)

What's up you guys!??? How's the beginning of the week treating ya? I'm hanging out with Baby, watching Nancy Grace.. Her guest is that little Russian girl who was adopted by that asshole podophile. Her name is Masha, and she was on Oprah yesterday.
What really sucks is that this dickhead is in a hospital, not a prison. Now, check it out..He specifically ordered a girl with blonde hair..He said that it was okay if she was handicapped or learning impaired! He specifically was ordering a sex slave. Why even waste the room or the air? The dude even molested his own daughter. She got out, but never told. And the sense of shame and ersponsibilty placed on these kids is so large, that most adults would crumble. I say, if you know someone who has been the victim of sexual abuse, just acknowledge it by saying that you're sorry that happened to them.. It really helps.. The stigma and the burden need to be lifted from the consciousnesses of these innocent children...

Well, I'm gonna go finish Nancy..Baby and I just ordered pizza!! Pepporoni and mushroom for me, and she gets the real flat kind.. Thin .Yuk! LOL
Love and hugs!!

HAPPY MARTIN LUTHER KING DAY!!!

Some Kind of Wonderful...

2006-01-15T01:21:00.001-08:00

Hey guys!! Baby and I aew watching the movie "Some Kind of Wonderful" right now. I figured it was a nice post title. Baby's never seen it before. I'm enjoying a nice glass (or two, or three) of champagne.. I had a bottle specially saved from New Years!! Champagne makes me so horny (snicker) ... I'm in the mood to "play" with her.. I can tell she's in to the movie now. I love it when one of my recommendations turns out to be a hit around here, especially because i like to watch the same shit over and over again... John Hughes was always one of my favorites.."Sixteen Candles, The Breakfast Club".."Some Kind of Wonderful"...Feel good kind of movies. Baby doesn't like movies that end sadly.. Remember "Love Story"? Oh, I love that movie!! Hey! Anyone remember "Valley Girl" with Nick Cage? Oh yeah!!!
Anyway my buds..not much to say..gotta watch the movie with Baby.. I promissed her private time tonight.. ;-)
Love ya!

Nocturnal Permission

2006-01-11T03:30:00.000-08:00

Hey guys!! How's it going? I swear, I am so fucking exhausted, but, damn how I love the middle of the night. I haven't really gotten much sleep since the weekend. I worked today (well, technically yesterday), and then last night (of course).. I had an acting gig where I had to look totally raggedy. I loved it!! My agent called last night and said.."Tell Schree` to NOT show up pretty!! How fun!! I got to play a homeless crackhead!! I'll give you guys the details when the project wraps. I'll let you know where you can see ugly Schree`.. Oh yeah baby!! And we shot outside!! LOL!! When Baby took me to the set, she looked at me without my hair done and no makeup and my stocking cap on and said.."Well honey, at least I know I don't have to worry about you flirting with guys today!" LOL Too funny.. She's a trip, that girl... Those of you who listen to the show know that I do a lot of background work and stuff to keep my chops up. "On Your Mind" is my baby.. But, I've been acting since I was six.. Theater is my love.. I guess you would say my first love of acting was in the theater. I love film too. The kool part is that Baby has worked with me several times. Most recently we worked on "Rocky" the most recent installment of the franchise. Sylvester Stallone is a great director. He really cares about the actors. No ego at all!!

I've never talked about this before, but, my dad died while I was on hiatus from "Miss Congeniality II".. A lot of us worked on that one. I played an FBI agent. I was background, so, I didn't have any lines.Just some really kool action. But, yeah..We wrapped for a break, my dad died, I went home for the funeral, and turned around and came back to work. I know that he would have wanted that for me. Not to lie on my back and spiritually wilt.. I thank God that I was in the middle of that production when he did take my father home..I don't know what i would have done if I would have had to spend those weeks idle..

Daddy actually got to do a scene with me in a film.. "Once Upon a Time...When We Were Colored"..I played a character named "Lilly Short".. A small role, which I will be forever greatful for. There's one scene, where I'm raking leaves, and my best friend Marc pointed out to me that there weren't even any leaves on the ground where I was raking.. LOL!! This was before his stroke, and my oldest brother, strongly suggested that my dad go with me.. I think he's still mad at me because I left home and didn't ask him first.. LOL Anyway, there is a second scene..in a church..it's a town meeting..Tim Reid, the film's director looked at my dad and said.. "Hey Boss (that's what everybody called my dad), you should be in the scene with her..I'll put you right next to her.." Well, daddy didn't want to do it.. Mr. Reid insisted.. So, thanks to him for that.. I don't watch my work.. It just occured to me while I'm writing this, that I can go to the video store and rent it, and see my daddy in motion.. I don't know if I'm ready for that though. The urge to hug and kiss him would be too much I think.. I don't know..I miss him so much though.. Especially when I have questions about radio, or life in general..We talked about everything! He was my main man. A true gentleman. He always opened the door for me, and always made sure that I knew my worth..

Wow! I have gone on haven't I? I hope you guys don't think I'm being at all bragadocious.. It's just that, I hold back a lot in my blogs when it comes to my family.. Time for me to be more open..

Hugs

Thinking Of You..

2006-01-10T05:05:00.000-08:00

Hey guys!! I was up watching a little TV with Baby, and browsing my blogs..I have had three bloggers on my show within the past two weeks, and let me tell ya, I have so enjoyed every conversation.

I really need to thank Lauren again for coming on and being so candid, and allowing me a peek into her life. I just want to make sure that she knows that.. I know that sometimes it's easy to feel wide open after coming on..Friday night, I had "Moonsilver" on from blogstream..She's from Appalaccia (Virginia)...Tonight, I had "Writeguy" on from Blogster..You guys know I love to blog! LOL!! But, you all mean a lot to me, and I'm really thankful that I have such wonderful people to kick it with. You guys keep me grounded more than you realize..Thanks for being there..All of you..

Lotsa love

Flavor of Love

2006-01-08T19:12:00.000-08:00

Now, this show just cracks me up! Flavor Flav is too cute..In a homely kind of way..
Guess what guys?? Today Baby and I went to the AVN (Adult Video News) convention..Hey! Anything for the job ;-)

We met some porn stars, but, I'll talk a little about that tomorrow night on the air. Don't want it to be a stale conversation you know?

We really met lots of kool people..

Gotta go watch Flav..
Hugs...

Down's Syndrome Children in Mainstream Classrooms?

2006-01-07T05:43:00.000-08:00

Hey guys! I'm awake watching this show on HBO Family. It's about a child named Peter. He has Down's Syndrome, and this is a documentary following his adventures during one school year. Now, I don't have a hard lined opinion about this, but, watching it was very thought provoking. The kids seem to be in around the third grade. They are such wonderful kids. They help Peter, and even help to pull him off of other children when he fights them. The thing that I find disturbing is just the amount of responsibility that is placed on the "mainstream" kids when a special needs child is in the classroom. I noticed that the teacher had to spend more time with Peter, and even asked other children to stop what they were doing (school work wise) to help Peter..Now, look..I feel for Peter and all, but what about Jane and Mary? Peter was hitting and he even tried to choke one girl. I don't know..I just think that it might be a little overwhelming..

Anyway peeps..Gotta get some rest before dance class this afternoon!!

Damn..

2006-01-03T16:29:00.000-08:00

You know what? Sometimes that's all a chick can say!

Hey everybody!! How's it going? Me? I'm just chillin out. I was catching up with the news. Coal miners trapped for like 12 hours so far in West Virginia.. Damn..That sucks. They're saying that there has been no contact with them at all, and that there are fumes eminating from the earth (not natural gas either)..They are saying that we shouldn't lose hope. They can still come out of this thing alive. Anyway, enough of the news update.

I just started a Lifetime movie. My friend Glenn stopped by to bring me a pine tree!! YAAAYYY! He knocked on the door and left it on the stoop. When I opened the door, I saw him leaving. He's like the only guy aside from my best friends at home, that Baby trusts alone with me. She's as bad as any guy in that department, but, for some reason, I'm able to comprehend it differently. She overprotective..My men were just possessive..That may be unfair on my part..I am lesbian, hear me roar! LOL

I have been so into this Potter book you guys! I'm starting to make a dent in it. Putting the blogging aside to read is a stretch you know? I have gotten to the point of where I can turn off the tv for long periods of time now. For a while, I hated (well, strongly disliked) silence.. Right after Daddy died, the silence was a sad place. A place where I replayed my childhood, that time had come. The time that I had dreaded since 10th grade when he had his first heart attack. I remember being at rehearsal for "Music Man" and bawling into my friend Chris' arms. Chris Yohe..Remember the name. He's gonna be a huge star one day. God willing. He was one of my best friends, and we did our first job together. We were in an ABC after school special. Remember those? You gotta love the 80's.. I had a big crush on him. He was so sensitive and kind. He was good to my mom too..I think of Chris often. He goes back and forth from New York to LA so, we lost touch a couple of years ago. We always said that when we got older we would work together again. For some reason I believe that. He's the best actor I know. Just really underused right now. He's blonde with green eyes. Pretty common in the business..But, I know when his time comes, he's gonna steal everybody's hearts..That is assuming that he hasn't let life get the best of him. I doubt it though. Some lights are just too hard to extinguish.

Anyway guys..I'm rambling now..Gotta save that for tonight you know? ;-)

Luv and hugz!!

First Daughter

2006-01-01T14:55:00.000-08:00

I think that's the name of this movie I'm watching with Katie Holmes. She was so cute back in the day. "Dawson's Creek" was actually a really good show! She has definitely left the creek now though huh? She's kickin it in Tommyland now! HAYYY!

Anyway peeps, I hope you're all enjoying your New Years Day! Me? I'm hanging with my Baby, and reading up on Potter, and eating all day!! That is my plan...Food glorious food!! LOL

Going for now buds..

2006-01-01T02:12:00.000-08:00

HAPPY NEW YEAR OFFICIALLY EVERYBODY!!

Baby and I watched the fireworks, then, came home and made love. We had to decide wether or not we wanted to see the frieworks, or be in bed. I'll have to say, it was worth it. The additional 30 minutes I had to wait to rock my Baby's world!! What a show!! LOVED IT!!

I have been munching on neckbones and black eyed peas! YUMMY!!!..Now, I'm wating Baby's famous jello salad. Oh my Gosh!!! I am a happy girl right about now!! ready to ring in the new year with a big bang..I did ring it in with a big bang. ;-)

Hugzzzz!!!!

Saturday In The Flesh

2005-12-31T15:16:00.000-08:00

Hey guys!! How's your Saturday going? I just woke up!!! Went to bed waayyy late!! I love the nightife..I love to boogay.on the disco HIGHWAY!! lol

I think I'll take my Baby to the drive-in tonight! Hmmm ;-) We never went to see "Rent"..hey! My new SAG card wasn't in yet when it came out. That is a benefit that I never used until this past year! I guess I'm a little spoiled now. We get to go to "Century" theaters for free! There aren't many things in this life that are free eh? Sometimes, Baby and I go out on press passes, but, the press can be sooo boring. Baby just said that the Drive-in may be closed..Maybe we can go anyway and I can sing that song from "Grease" "Stranded..stranded at the drive-in..Stranded, a fool..What will they say, Monday at school?!! LOL

Anyway my peeps..I'm gonna go and chill with my wife for a spell...A spell..CAN YOU SAY TOO MUCH POTTER??

Kisses..

Hello Mates!! Happy Friday!

2005-12-30T15:49:00.000-08:00

Hey guys!! I hope this font isn't too big for you. Let me know, and I'll change it..I like using the big fonts, but, a blogger got on me once because it was too big. ;-)

Anyway..I'm catching up on my blogging, and watching "America's Next Top Model"!!! yaaayy!! I've been reading "Order of the Phoenix" now that's a great book! it's thick as hell though! Not to mention, I haven't even finished "davinci code"..One day..It went from the bedroom to the bathroom..So...

EEWWW!!! This girl on Top Model has scabies on her FACE!! OMG! Girl, just go home..Tell Tyra you are ready to leave. LOL

Okay peeps..I'm gonna go get my groove on with you for a while..
Hugs..

2005-12-28T15:51:00.001-08:00

Hey y'all!!! What's up?? It's almost time for all of us to let our hair down for New Years!! Hooo!!!!
I'm not gonna make this too long..I want to go and read you guys..I didn't get to do so much on the blog tip while mom was here. Girlfriend was all about the strip!! Damn..a sister is STILL tired!! Thank God though that my mom is still spunky..

"Hallowween V is on AMC right now..I love the "Halloween" movies! How wild is it that they're airing it at Christmastime! Kewlness!! Did anybody see the "Southpark" Christmas special? That was some funny shit! I saw it at the theater..I know.. /Surprise!!

OOHHH!! I think my delete btton is fucked up..Okay..I will be taking my black ass right bak to circuit city for a new one!! Don't you wish you culd be a fly on the wall if shit ain't right?! LOL!!
Lauren and Babs would crack up at me..Shannon would be putting eyedrops in her eyes and laughing..Sum would be laughing, but, playing it off like she was looking for cooking dvd's! LOL Oh what fun that would be..The store would never be the same again!!

2005-12-28T15:51:00.000-08:00

HI MY LOVES!!!

2005-12-27T15:01:00.000-08:00

Hey guys!!! How's it going today?! I'm hanging out, producing, and wanted to check out my peeps!! I love you guys..I was sitting here, thinking about my Daddy, maybe because Mom just left or something..I think about him evryday, but, it's kind of strange seeing her without him, you know? Even though they broke up in '85, they never truly let go..But, I was thinking....Baby has been my rock..aside from my work..But you know what? I discovered blogging, and suddenly I had people to talk to about my pain and my joy. You guys have taken a load off of my wife..Hey! I give credit where credit is due. Producing radio shows and doing small acting gigs can get lonely..But not with you guys around!! I love y'all.....Know that okay? And Schree` love is some strong shit!

Coffee Break

2005-12-26T19:31:00.000-08:00

Hey guys!!! I hope you all had a great holiday!! Hey!! It's not over yet is it? We've still got New Years to go!

My Mom left today. :-( We had such a nice time. She ran me to death though! lol Vegas truly does turn adults into children. It's fun to watch her eyes light up each time we go out onto the strip. My heart literally breaks though, every time she leaves. How korny is it that when I see her go through the security gate, I want to run past the guard to give her one more hug. One more kiss on the cheek..

Anyway...I missed you guys!! I had to sleep today..That's kool though. When I woke up..around 5:30 or so, Mom called like 20 minutes later to let me know that she had arrived home safely. I'm glad that I was asleep while she was in the air. With all the airplane issues we've had over the past few weeks, I know I would have been a little anxious had I been awake.

I'm gonna go catch up with you guys..see what's going on.. ;-)

Luv and Hugs...

The Morning After..

2005-12-24T15:22:00.000-08:00

Hey everybody!!! I hope you're all enjoying yourselves on this Christmas Saturday. I hope that all of the love of the great God and godesses have to offer. (just for you Babs ;-)

Where do I begin guys?? Last night was a great night, let me tell ya. My surprise from Baby was my Mom's early arrival from Delaware. YAAYYY!! Remember? I was saying that she'll be here for New Years', well, I have her here for Christmas. Right now, we're just relaxing, talking, and watching the boob tube. I'd better rest while I can. I'm surprised she's not pushing me out the door to go to the strip! LOL Well, Baby is laying down..She won't go anywhere without Baby..I think that's petty kool.

LAUREN WAS GREAT ON MY SHOW!! I want to say that her appearance was honest, raw, and eye-opening. Thanks Lauren, for calling in. Consider yourself part of the "On Your Mind" family. I have adopted you..

Anywaw guys..I'm gonna go surf for a little minute...

Luv ya's

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY!!!

2005-12-23T17:49:00.000-08:00

I may have told you guys this in my previous post, but, in case I didn't HAVE A HAPPY CHRISTMAS!!! Enjoy your eggnog and the soft, warm fire...Read a good book..Enjoy the weekend everybody!! Hugs and love!!!

The vibrator: a timeline history

2005-12-20T14:46:00.000-08:00

The vibrator: a timeline history

1653: Doctors recommended the following as an ailment for hysteria:
"...we consider it necessary to ask a midwife to assist so that she can massage the genitalia with one finger inside using oil of lilies, musk root, crocus or [something] similar. And in this way the afflicted woman can be aroused to paroxysm…most especially for widows, those who live chaste lives, and female religious...it is less often recommended for very young women, or married women, for whom it is a better remedy to engage in intercourse with their spouses."
Early 1800s: Doctors try other strategies for arousing women including rocking chairs, a swing, and vehicles that bounced the patient rhythmically on her pelvis.
Brighampton University-VOLUME LXIV, ISSUE 20 • PUBLISHED APRIL 25, 2003

1870: A wind-up vibrator is made available to both spas and physicians, but it has a tendency to run down before the treatment is complete.
1872: An American physician patents the "Manipulator" - a steam-powered massage and vibratory apparatus. He warns treatment should be watched to avoid over-manipulation.
1880s: A British physician invents the electromechanical vibrator for use as a medical instrument.
1900: Other physicians follow suit with contraptions intended to serve as vibrators. Articles and textbooks on vibratory massage technique praised the machine's versatility for treating nearly all diseases in both sexes and saving physicians time and labor. These vibrators reduced the time of "getting there" from up to an hour to approximately 10 minutes.
1905: Convenient portable models become available, permitting house calls.
1900-1920: Vibrators were advertised in Home Needlework Journal as a health and relaxation aid with which "all the pleasures of youth will throb within you."
1918: Sears and Roebuck & Company Electric Goods catalog advertises a vibrator attachment for a home motor that also drives attachments for churning, beating, buffing and fan operating
1920s: Stag films started using vibrators as props. Physicians realized that orgasm didn't necessarily involve penetration. And once they connected "arousal to paroxysm" with eroticism, the vibrator's era as a medical appliance ended.
1960s: Vibrator re-emerges and is openly marketed as a sex aid.
1970s: Medical authorities still assure men that a woman who does not reach orgasm during sexual coitus was flawed or suffering from some physical or psychological impairment.
1990s: research shows that more than half of all women, possibly more than 70 percent, do not reach orgasm by means of penetration alone.

Let It Snow!

2005-12-19T15:44:00.000-08:00

Hey all! Well, it's here! Christmas week. You know, I don't feel any stress associated with Christmas. We usually go to midnight mass, and open stuff when we get home, or in the morning. My mom will be out here for New Years! Baby and I are both very excited. If you would have told me even seven years ago, that my mom would consider Baby one of her closest friends, I would have called you crazy. But, the three of us have been through a lot. And we are very close. Mom and I talk openly now, and I think that she gets it..People are souls..Not sexes..

Anyway..Merry Christmas! Happy Kwanza!! Happy Chaunakka (sp) !!

Luvs!!!

Angel Eyes..

2005-12-17T23:49:00.000-08:00

She has the eyes of an angel.
When she looks at me, I heal.
Through laughter and pain,
Sunshine and rain,
Her body could be my last meal.
Good vibrations from her soul,
As we go on a midnight stroll,
Into the magic forest.
Love's passions and delights,
And all the gentle loving bites,
Makes all else in life worthwhile.
She is a blessing from above,
We've got that "groovey kind of love",
The stuff that daydreams are made of.

Geriatric Sex

2005-12-17T12:35:00.000-08:00

Hey guys!! What's up? Happy Saturday. Baby and I are hanging out watching Lifetime movies. Right now, "Texas Justice" is on. It's the story of Cullen Davis. Dude killed his ex-wife's daughter. But, because he had so much wealth and power, got off! The intended target was the ex-wife, but, the daughter was basically at the wrong place at the wrong time. As she lived with her father. The pre-teen was led either by force, or willingly with someone she knew and was made to get down on her knees, then shot execution-style in the back of the head. All of Texas new this guy was guilty. If you google him, you'll find some really interesting reading.

AAAaaanyway...My dance instructor "L" just called. She has had a groin pull injury before, and she was very compassionate. (just like you guys :-) Baby called the school this morning and left a message about my groin. LOL I love that word now! I've said it so many times, and it's just fun to say.Go ahead..Say it out loud. Isn't it a funny word? Anyway, I told her to tell the girls Merry Christmas, and she said to rest and that they would miss me today. I told her I will miss them too.. :-( But, hey, I have to look at the bright side. Today is only the open house. (Baby was drilling that into my head like an oil derek) And by the time we re-convene after New Years, I'll be healed and able to shake my ass again. I mean, I can do the robot, just not the electric slide, you know what I mean? I had planned to go and just watch, but, after much thought and lecturing from my wife ("you won't just sit there. I know you.")...We decided that I was not the end all and be all of the class, and I did not need to be there. LOL!

Baby went out and got me an early Christmas present to lift my spirits. "Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince" The hardcopy!! I love books!! So, that made your girl very happy. I realized that I didn't read "Order of the Phoenix", so, we're going to pick up the soft cover on our way out to lunch. YAAAYYYY

Hey! Last night marked milestone i my sex life guys! I hd geriatric sex!! You know I've been a little disabled, well, hell, I was horney..Let me just say..that Baby's head makes a wonderful legrest! Hey Chameleon, Baby just found this little tight white dress that we originally bought on a vacation here (Vegas). We were going to get married, but, they told us it was "unlawful" at the courthouse. The bitch that told us was rude too. Hussy! LOL!!! I was like "UNLAWFUL??!!" I was trying to fight the law right there. It was funny..Until we walked out and I started crying. I don't cry much. But that was hurtful..AAAAaaanyway..This little white dress will be for round two ;-)

Hey!! I got "vibrated" last night for the first time. I wanted to see what all the fuss is about! Now I KNOW what all the fuss is about!! But, I don't need it all the time...(I have to say that or else Baby will get mad) LOL..

Love and Hugs my Darlings..
XOXOXOXO

To Shake That Ass or Not to Shake That Ass..That is the Question..

2005-12-16T16:21:00.000-08:00

Hey my beautiful buds! How's it going? Thanks for all of the advice regarding my groin pull injury. I can walk today. Only a slight limp. However, I think I should hang up my hopes of participating tomorrow at the open house. I'll still try to go though. Just to support the rest of the girls. I did a lot of research and listening to what fellow bloggers have had to say, and the general consensus seems to be that rest and rest alone can heal this injury. It would be so kool though if, when we leave for the station tonight, I can get in and out of the car with no pain. How I am able to move tonight ;-) will determine weather or not I dance tomorrow. The only thing is, my left leg could totally go out from under me! Then, the chance of re-injury is increased. Baby was laughing at me because I went to the NFL injury information website. LOL Hey! I wanted to know how long these guys stay out with this shit. I need to move my body!!! Get your mind out of the gutter guys. ;-)
Anyway..I'm gonna go and surf for a while and get ready for tonight. I'm going against Dr's orders! (basically, baby's orders)...
Love and Hugs and a great big THANK YOU!!!

Harness Anyone?

2005-12-15T23:22:00.000-08:00

Howdy buds! Thanks for the well wishes with the groin pull..That word really cracks me up. LOL I've been following all of your advice. It's really hard to rest, you know? To just be still..For long periods of time. Damn! How boring. I can't wait to go out again. This feels like groundhog day! Dejavu.

I'm not gonna make this too long. Just wanted to say thanks..Maybe I need to get a harness next time. ;-) LOL

The Four Candles
The four candles burned slowly,
Their ambiance was so soft, you could hear them speak.

The first candle said, "I Am Peace, but these days, nobody wants to keep me lit."
Then, Peace's flame slowly diminished and went out completely.

The second candle said, "I Am Faith, but these days, I am no longer indispensable."
Then Faith's flame slowly diminished and went out completely.

Sadly, the third candle spoke, "I Am Love and I haven't the strength to stay lit any longer."
"People put me aside and don't understand my importance.
They even forget to love those that are nearest to them."
And waiting no longer, love went out completely.

Suddenly...
A child entered the room and saw the three candles no longer burning.

The child began to cry,
"Why are you not burning? You are supposed to stay lit until the end."

Then the fourth candle spoke gently to the little boy,
"Don't be afraid, for I Am Hope, and while I still burn,
we can re-light the other candles."

With shining eyes, the child took the Candle of Hope
and lit the other three candles.

Never let the Flame of Hope go out.
With Hope in your life, no matter how bad things may be,
Peace, Faith, and Love may shine brightly once again.

How Do I Make Lemonade Out of This Shit?

2005-12-14T16:51:00.000-08:00

Hey buds! How's it hanging? ;-) I'm hanging out with a pulled groin muscle. Yes! I AM IN SHOCK!! It has been hurting so much. Everything I do hurts. Sleeping, walking, sitting Oh me..... I'm not in pain right now because I took a Motrin 800 and drank a 24 ouncer of Coors Light. But, damn! And the worse part of this who debaucle, is that I may not be able to dance this weekend. This weekend is our open house. :-( I now have a new kind of empathy for all of you out there who have pulled your groin muscle. Your ass even hurts! Unfuckin'-believable!! When it heals, I am going to be so thankful. Is there a chance that I can drop it like it's hot by Saturday? I am trying to baby it, but, you use your groin muscle for EVERYTHING!! But that's okay. I'm tough. (yeah right)..

Monday Madness!!

2005-12-12T21:07:00.000-08:00

Hey guys!! How's it going? I am hanging out with Baby. She's doing the dishes. I would have done them, but, I'm busy. LOL!!

Hey! "Titanic" just came on! That is one long assed movie!!

Baby's parents are in town for the week. They came in on Friday. Hopefully, we'll have one or both of them on the show this week. What can I say? You guys know me! I'll be giving the play by play on the radio. ;-) I'll write about the good stuff after I talk about it. If I write about it, it loses it's spontenaeity on the air. You know?

Anyway buds..I'm gonna go chill and check out your blogs..

Peace and Hair Grease!

Survivor and the Band

2005-12-08T19:13:00.000-08:00

Hey everybody! Baby and I are hanging out, watching "Survivor". Hey! I just remembered that I have a "survivor" blog over here! LOL You know what? I think I have way too many blogs! Those of you who know me, know of some of them. Can you say Blogoholic? ;-)

My in laws will be in Vegastomorrow. I've been cleaning off and on. Thank God for Mr. clean wipes! They make life so simple. Just a few wipes, and it's all good. Hey! I'd better stop with the endorsement. Shit..But, I'm not into difficult hardcore cleaning. Baby gets on her hands and knees to do the floors and stuff. She's a great woman.

I watched "Making The Band" too! Okay, so I need to grow up. But, I've been an MTV fan since the first video aired "Video Killed the Radio Star" by The Buggles..And I'm a loyal chick! :-)

Hey!! I gotta go..I don't want to miss survivor since i'm not taping it.

Hugs and Love

Great Movies From Back in the Day!!

2005-12-08T03:27:00.000-08:00

Hey guys! I hope you all had a fuckin' great hump day. I'm hanging out, enjoying some late night browsing, mixed in with my tv fix.. Do you remember that movie "Paternity" with Burt Reynolds and Beverly D'Angelo? LOL What a great/funny movie! I used to love this movie when I was a kid. Burt used to look so good! It's a damned shame what he's done to his face!!! I have to tape this since it's on such heavy rotation this month. It's the one where he plays an eligible bachelor in New York City, and he wants to have a son, but, not a wife. So, he goes on the hunt for a surrogate. Enter, Beverly D'Angelo.

Modern Problems with Chevy Chase has been on HBO a lot lately. LOL That, and "Family Farm"..Those are a few of my favorites from back in the day. I really hope that "Emmett Otter's Jugband Christmas" comes on this year! I mentioned it tonight on the air and Baby nor my engineer, Theresa knew what the hell I was talking about! Even after I sang part of the "Barbecue" song!! What's the world coming to?

Preparing For My Inlaws

2005-12-07T18:14:00.000-08:00

Hey guys! Happy Hump Day! I can't believe the week's alomst over already. Baby's parents are coming into town this weekend! I'm excited to see them. Especially her mother. She taught me everything I know about planting and weeding. My mom always had plants, but, Baby's mom is into the whole horticulture thing. I started cleaning yesterday. You know how it goes. I have to do everything! Even the baseboards. Plus, my mom follows shortly after for New Years. May as well get it all done and over with.
They'll be at their new timeshare for a week. So, they won't be here all the time. They usually stay in their motorhome or at one of the hotels. Don't you just love Vegas?!

Baby and I are hanging out watching "Amazing Race" on Gameshow Network. Don't even get me started on "Lingo" that's a fun game, and you can play from home. Well, I do..Baby says I have mental problems when I shout out at the TV.. Anyone into Sudoku? That's a good one too. You can even play it online. I think you can type in www.sudoku.com ..

Anyway my buds..I'm gonna go check on you all and see how you're all doing. Love and Hugs..

Terms Of Endearment...

2005-12-05T13:27:00.000-08:00

Hey guys! Happy Monday to you all. I have to say yet again, that this was pretty much a "dead blog" until my Blogster friends came over here. That says a lot about the power of this whole blogging thing you know? I am literally "drawn" to some of you. Others of you, I hope to get to know. I've been mainly at Blogster and Blogstream, and they're both great sites, but, now I feel that Blogger is starting to work for me. First of all, it fucking HUGE!! I don't think I've ever come across the same posts twice while surfing..That's how Blogster was, before it was over-taken. I've been getting used to it, but, I miss you guys who have left. It's lost some of it's flavor if you know what I mean.

Baby is in a business meeting, but, she'll be home soon. Thanks guys for your well wishes! I'm all better now from my cold from hell, and ready to rock and roll.. Hey! Anybody got anything on their mind that they think I should address tonight on the air? ;-)
Love and Hugs!!

Livin' in Las Vegas

2005-12-04T19:14:00.000-08:00

Hey guys! Baby and I are watching "Housewives" LOL! This show is too funny. Each story line is good. Damn! Just when you think it can't get better. Bree's son is gay! If you follow the show, you were probably just as shocked as I was. If you don't watch the show, you have no idea what the hell I'm talking about. Sorry.. :-)

My best friend Marc's sister had a baby girl this morning! Her name is Sydney I think. When I talked to him, he was on his way to the hospital. He wasn't sure, but, he was fairly confident that Sydney is part of her name. I can't wait until I go back home. I had been puttinhg it off since my Dad died, but, my friends and my family want me to come home for a visit. I do miss them very much. With my job, I can always use that as an excuse for not going home. Mom is coming out for New Years. And Marc is coming out soon after. I miss hanging out with my cousin Amir, and hanging out with my Mom. But, the thing about going home is, I'd have to drive by my Dad's house and I've been going forward, and I guess in some ways I'm afraid of what feelings may crop up if and when I go back. When he died, I was in the middle of an acting project. We were on a four day hiatus. I went home, buried my dad, and came back to Vegas to work.

Anyway, when you live in Las Vegas, people really don't mind coming to visit you, and you're guaranteed to show your guests a good time. Even if it's just a walk on the strip. You can see some real sites on the strip let me tell you!

Anyway peeps, I'm gonna go for now, and surf around and check on you and such.
Peace and Love!

Oh Those Winter Nights...

2005-12-03T21:05:00.000-08:00

Hey guys!! How is your weekend going? I know that we're all thinking about Sum, and her tragic loss. Some of us are brought back to thoughts of our own losses. That's natural. Life can bring us so many blows. It can be overwhelming. The good thing about it, is, we are not on this ride alone. I remember when my dad's sister died. I was soo hurt. She was so kind to me, and we were very close. It was the first death in my family since my mother's brother died of cancer in 1995 or 96.. I was with Baby, and we lived in L.A. When we went home to bury her, I felt so empty. So so pained. There was a man at the airport, he worked there, and he asked me if I was alright. I told him that I had just buried my aunt. (at that point, we were on our way back to Cali.) He then said, that death was something that everyone around me could understand. And from that moment on, I've understood that. We have all lost someone at sometime, and a lot of us have lost people to suicide. Perhaps this will help Sum, in this difficult time.

Sum, if you read this, know that you are not alone, and we are all here for you..

Sweetness..

2005-12-03T01:02:00.000-08:00

Hmm. I just posted, but, for some reason, it didn't save. That's okay, because, I have a different post now...I just got home from a long shooting day. 10 hours. Not too long. I've been on longer. So far, the record being 15 hours. I'll give you guys the specific when the project wraps. I had a kool day.

I just read Sooner's blog, and learned about Sum's recent loss. It's more than a loss. I really have no words. I just hope that she knows that we are all here for her. This is very sad.

I'm gonna go and surf for a while as I keep Sum in my thoughts and prayers..
Hugs to all of you..Stay safe...

Oh My Sweets!!

2005-12-03T00:29:00.000-08:00

Hey guys!! How was your Friday? I've been gone all day, and I just got home. I wasn't live tonight, because I was on a 10 hour shoot today, and it bled into the night..I'll tell you guys about it when it wraps. I met some really kool people today! This one girl Tunja, was so awesome! Shew looks just like Jada Pinkett. She was trying to convince me all day that Baby and I should go ahead and have children. You see, I love kids, but, I'm not willing to give up my figure for them. I know..Shallow as hell, but it's so true you guys. I mean, I know they say that it depends on the mother's mother. If that's the case, I shouldn't have a problem, but, what if, by chance, I start to eat everything in site and get big as a house, and end up on something like "Biggest Loser" or "Celebrity Fit Club"..Okay..No thank you..Sooner would be like..."Oh, but she USED to be hot!" I enjoy Sooner's compliments..But, yeah, Tunja is like a size 4 and she's had 2 kids! She showed me her tummy, and she doesn't even have "mommy tummy"! How kool is that?! Maybe I'll just let Baby carry first. That was the "plan" in the first place. But, the point is, I want to enjoy life a little more first, you know? I mean, I've got to make sure that I've got the right donor LOL! Shit! With so much to choose from. ;-) Just kidding..
Anyway guys, I'm gonna wind down with a few cones and watch "Next" on MTV with my Baby..I love that damned show! Anybody see the episode where the chick pissed on the date? Right in the restaurant too! Damn! That's hardcore!!!

Thursday Night Blogfest..

2005-12-01T21:42:00.000-08:00

Hey everybody! How's it going? I just had to stop in and say hi to you my buds. I am still dealing with this damned cold, which has slowed me down a little bit. But, don't count me out just yet LOL!

I get so excited about coming over here now. I'm gonna make this short, so that I can go check in on you guys!!
Love and Hugs!

MY MAIN SQUEEZE??

2005-11-28T02:49:00.000-08:00

Is it possible that Blogger is now my "main sqeeze"? I didn't like it that much before. Only because it didn't seem like people really wanted to communicate with each other. But, now, I feel differently. After my friends from blogster came over, I was forced to come here to check on them..Because I like them a lot..Dare I say love? ;-) And, now, I'm enjoying Blogger..So Blogcone on guys!!

I'm watching the Hussein Trial on CNN live right now. Whew! This guy is in some deep shit! He is such a big baby!!!

Going surfing for a while now..
big hugs!! Hey Babs! I know how you feel girl! Remember I got kicked off of blogit? And the kicker is, I still haven't gotten the rest of my money. They sent me this email saying that they paid me in full..What a crock of shit! LOL

Vertigo Taffy

2005-11-27T14:14:00.000-08:00

Hey everybody! What's up? I'm hanging out with my sweetheart watching lifetime movies. I'm having a hellified day. A headcold and major major cramps. Damnit! Baby made me some hot tea. I'm okay though. I hate to be sick. Well, who loves it, right? Itchy, burning nose...That sucks!! I took tylenol sinus. I think it's kicking in now. It's rather brisk out here. Last night's low was like 35 degrees or something like that..Nice weather for the desert eh?

I just popped in to say howdy and to let you guys know that Baby and I are in the middle of a giveaway of adult toys provided by www.pleasuremenow.com If you go there and purchase anything, and type in "baby" as your discount code, you'll get a sweet discount. :-)

Happy Sunday everybody!!

The Start of The Holiday Season!!

2005-11-24T22:13:00.000-08:00

Hey guys!! I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving!!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!

2005-11-24T14:55:00.000-08:00

Hi everybody!! Happy turkey day to all!!! I'm hanging out with Baby watching the Dallas game. We're going out for dinner. Gotta love the buffets at the holidays in Vegas! I love it! Today is the day that all of the holiday lights go up and the party/holiday spirit is in the air. Out here it's one in the same. ;-)

Anyway..Just wanted to pop in and say hy and wish you all happiness and cheer! Have a ball!!!!
Hugs!!

HAPPY THANKGIVING EVERYBODY!!

2005-11-23T14:33:00.000-08:00

Happy Thanksgiving everybody!! I love the holidays! Especially out here in Vegas. The strip is all decorated. It seems like every casino tries to out-do the other. It's great on the eyes! It's finally getting chilly outside! at least it is to me! Baby doesn't mind the crispness outside. I know I have no room to bitch, because, I live in Las Vegas. I grew up in the Northeast, and I know that it could be worse! ;-)

We're going out for dinner this year. I'm on this "plan" and I really don't need all of the leftovers. I'm a sucker for mayonaisse and turkey sandwiches. Aren't they good? Fortunately, there's this little deli called "Capriotti's" out here, and they make this sandwich calles a "Bobbie" and it has turkey, stuffing, and cranberry on it. So, if I get in the mood for a leftover meal, that's what I'll get. Maybe once..I'm sure it's loaded with calories! I have a dance recital coming up, and I have this outfit I wanna wear, so I can't mess around.

Anyway..gonna go surfing for a while and say howdy!

TGIF!

2005-11-11T20:16:00.001-08:00

Hey all!! I'm hanging out watching "Dateline". Tonight it's about the Christmas story. Scholarly hypotheses about the birthplace of Christ. Always an interesting topic. I personally was raised Catholic, and I choose to believe it. I have Jewish friends, and it's interesting to hear their views also. I'm fortunate because I had/have a really good Jewish friend at home who goes to midnight mass with me at Christmastime. Hey! He doesn't really pay attention and writes in his journal the whole time :-) but, hey, at least he goes with me. It's like, if we're hanging out and I want to go to mass, he's game. How cool is that? My friend Mitchell is so awesome. I really miss him.
Anyway, I'm just checking in...Gonna check you guys out for a while.

How to go Insane

TITANIC!!

2005-11-04T10:30:00.000-08:00

HEY GUYS! WHAT'S GOING DOWN? I'M HANGING OUT WHILE MY LOVE IS AT WORK. "TITANIC" IS ON! I LOVE THIS MOVIE. I SAW IT THREE TIMES IN THE THEATER. IT MUST HAVE BEEN REALLY WILD TO HAVE BEEN ON THAT SHIP! MY SURROGATE GRANDMOTHER WAS A LITTLE GIRL WHEN IT WENT DOWN, AND SHE REMEMBERS THE PAPER COMING OUT "EXTRA!EXTRA! READ ALL ABOUT IT!" BUT, WITHOUT TITANIC WE WOULDN'T HAVE CARNIVAL CRUISELINES OR ANY OF THE OTHERS. I HAVE YET TO TAKE A CRUISE. I KNOW THAT I WAS CONCIEVED ON A CRUISE THOUGH. IN THE BAHAMAS. HEY! DOES THAT MAKE ME A BAHAMA MAMA?

Two Supple Breasts

2005-10-23T23:35:00.000-07:00

Two supple breasts, nipple to nipple,

Two soft lips warm and wet.

Our loveline real, our fate to seal,

Our relationship fast as the Audubon.

she waits for me by the ocean,

the waves crashng down in the distance.

I run towards her,

towards the light in her eyes.

When I reach her,

I know that I am..home.

Tuesday at My Crib...

2005-10-18T18:10:00.000-07:00

Hey guys! How's it going? I'm hanging out with my friend Lisa and Baby. Lisa and I jung hung out all day and enjoyed some tv. It's been raining nonstop for the past two days, so, tennis is out of the question. Right now, we're watching "headline news" and "real world"..

Ooohh this woman woke up during surgery! OUCH!! That would suck!! Anesthesia awareness..Oh that would be so creepy. 20 to 40,000 people in the US become aware during surgery each year. That's actually quite a high number. Hell, one is too many! I hope I never need surgery, and if I do, I hope to God that I don't wake up until AFTER the surgery is over...They said that it results from the patient not getting enough "drug"..I'll make sure that I request XTRA!!!
Toodles!

Do We Need To Read More Carefully Before We Comment?

2005-10-06T03:46:00.000-07:00

Hey guys!! How's it going? I'm hanging out listening to a little Howard Stern. My Baby is in bed, and all is quiet on the home front. I've got the heat blasting. I know that Baby wants to complain. She hates the house stuffy. I like it to be cozy. It's getting chilly outside. It's time to use the heat.

What's up with this blogsite? Does anybody just read here? I'll go to check my comments, and most of the time, it's just some blanket comment. I mean, you can tell that whoever is leaving these comments doesn't even read the blogs that they're posting to. It's kind of frustrating. Sometimes I just want the interractive feedback from fellow bloggers..Maybe I don't want to go to the website or whatever..Why put your link on my site without my permission? SMH..

Anyway peeps..I'm gonna go chill for a while before I hit the sack..

Today..A Strange Day???

2005-09-29T14:52:00.000-07:00

Today..A Strange Day???

You guys!! I'm hanging out, working, and watching "The Real World" on MTV. My day started normally enough. My Baby kissed me on the forhead as she prepared to walk out the door. I stirred awake, told her I loved her, she returned the emotion, and left for work.I tried to go back to sleep, but I couldn't. I was thinking about my Father. I think about him every day, but, sometimes those thoughts overwhelm me in the morning.My Father (Daddy Pooh) and I were AMAZINGLY close. He alwayss was there for me as a Father and a friend. He knew that I was in love with Baby before I did. I really miss him. I was a Daddy's girl to the max! Looking into his face was like looking right into a mirrior sometimes. We understood each other like only a best friend could you know?You know what I miss? His voice. It was so deep. So rich. He was the best in radio when he was in it. My mom and some of his fans tell me about it today. I wans't born yet, but, it was the kool music of the 50's. I know I missed it, but I'll bet that even though times were tough in our country regarding race relations, music brought the country together. I'm just realizing as I sit here, that my Father was extremely intstrumental in getting people over there bigotry by entertaining them with music. He was known for his remote broadcasts which he performed every weekend. That's how my parents met. Mom was 18, Daddy was MUCH older! LOL! They actually met when my mom was a little girl. My Dad was friends with my Mom's mother. So, Mom was 18 when they officially "started" if you know what I mean. Theirs is such a love story that through their eyes I am able to understand love at such an indestructable level..Thanks Mom and Daddy..Anyway..I was laying in bed deciding if I wanted to stay there, or get up. I decided after about a half an hour that I'd get out of bed.I checked my email, and exchanged with a couple of friends. Some from Blogit. Where I was informed (and I have the page) where that "ariala" or Trish or whatever her name eluded to some Bible passages where in the Bible Satan comes in the form of the accuser. You see,you guys may remember that I actually posted where she came to my blogsite over there and said that my blog was too "disgusting" for her as a straight woman. Followed by LOL'S..HAHAHA :-)..Well, I re-read her post. I should post it here. Hey! As long as I site the source right?But, I was thinking..She was accused of being a bigot as a result of her own actions. How does that make those people Satan?? Anyway..My Dad's sister passed a few years ago, and my Uncle Joe gave me her Bible. I don't read it as often as I should. But, dag! I know the thing backwards and forwards pretty much. I, like most black kids, grew up in the church. Hey! It was Catholic, but, I was in the thick of if..Anyway, do you remember that Bible Study game where you just pick a place (close your eyes) and then open and read it? I was TOTALLY freaked by what I went to..Check this out..Mark 13:6"Many will come in my name, saying, "I am He!' and will mislead many...I still have my Aunt's Bible on my lap. I'm like..."aunt alee? Is that you?" LOL!!It's just wicked weird because this bigot woman claims to be a hard core Christian. She writes little pamphlets and sings and stuff. And yesterday, we talked a little about the Christians who act like that. They claim to be all into God, but, they don't spread His love to everyone. I never had one decent conversation with this woman. I blocked her from my blog after she came and commented the second time. It was clear at that point that she wasn't "down" with me. My only question is..Why would she continue to come back? It's a shame that some people use harassment as a way to claim their Christianity..One day she may be dying, and may just get a lesbian or a black person's blood..WHO CARES MAN!! WE'RE ALL JUST PEOPLE..TRYING TO GET ALONG ON THIS RIDE CALLED LIFE..Love and Hugs..

A LESSON LEARNED..

2005-09-27T12:31:00.000-07:00

Hey guys!! I hope you're all feeling well..Happy and healthy!
I must say, that I'm feeling pretty good today.

I was never able to get a live response in the customer service department of Blogit. Turns out that they NEVER call anyone back. They take your credit card information and they don't have a call center. I did some research on the web, and found the name of the CEO. His name is Mihail Lari, or Mehail. One or the other. I even emailed asking that he call me. Nothing.

You see, when I joined there a little over a month ago, I met with some over bigotry. I responded to that bigotry by saying some not so nice things to the bigot. Well, long story short, the bigot emailed the company and had my account pulled. I didn't know that there was a lid on being able to defend yourself. To my knowledgs, this bigot preys upon new people who seem to do well at Blogit.

But, the one lesson that I did learn through the experience was NEVER GIVE YOUR CREDIT CARD INFORMATION OUT UNLESS YOU KNOW THAT YOU CAN SPEAK TO A LIVE PERSON ON THE OTHER END!

Evening Peacfulness..

2005-09-26T21:23:00.000-07:00

HI guys!! I'm hanging out, catching up with my blogs. It's such a nice still night out here..I love nights like this. I actually went for a jog this evening and it felt soooo good! I love to do physical things. Raquetball, roller blading, skating..I'm into all that!!

Well, this post is going to be short, because I'm more in a reading mood than a writing mood at the moment..

Just wanted to check in and say Hi! To everybody!
Until Later!!

Time To Turn In

2005-09-26T03:31:00.000-07:00

Hey everybody! I'm hanging out listening to Howard Stern, and blogging myself into oblivion..LOL!! This is my favorite time, but, I gotta say that my little steamboat is out of steam..Good the Stern's on. He helps to keep me going on those nights when I feel the need to write well into the night.

I've been really getting into poetry. Reading about Sylvia Plath was interesting. She was brilliant, and had no idea..She killed herself, which sucks. She never got to see her poetry recognized. Isn't that a bitch?

Well all..I think that I'm gonna go lay down and submit so sleep..

LOVE RUNS DEEP

BLOGGING A TIDBIT

2005-09-25T21:32:00.000-07:00

I'm hanging out with my Baby watching that Martha Stewart movie. It's pretty good..That woman has overcome quite a bit of adversity. I like her show too! You really can learn a lot watching Martha.

This weekend sure went by fast! I didn't watch any of the football games that were on either..I'm not really a football fan, but my sweethear is. If the Cowboys are on, forget about it..

I just wanted to post a tidbit before the movie comes back on..I'm blogging during the commercials LOL!!

Laterz!!

Have You Ever Lost A Blog??

2005-09-24T03:08:00.000-07:00

Whew!! I have spent almost two hours trying to find this precious blog. For some reason, I blanked out on my user name and password.Derrr...Anyway..I wanted to "beef it up" a little you know?
I don't know what it is about starting a new blog, but, it is soooo much fun!!! Anyway..I'm gonna go read a little before I go to bed and enjoy that sweet slumber with my sweetheart. Who is already asleep..She's so beautiful...

Poetry in Motion....

Wed 9/7/2005 1:27 PM (original post date)

Through your kiss I see the depths of the ocean, wrought with starfish and beautiful coral.

I gaze into your eyes and get lost in their depth.

Green as the Caribean Sea..

I jump into them. Permissionless.

Should I be cautious?

Can I drown in your sea?

You say not..

In your heart I have entrusted the fate of my soul.

Safe, yet cautious I commend to you my spirit.

The recompense unstoppable like the beat of my heart.

You know that it beats for you..

MY FIRST POST!!!

2005-09-23T23:44:00.000-07:00

This is my first post and I am so excited!! This post is dedicated to my relationship with my beautiful girlfriend..Well, I think of her as my betrothed. The only reason that we haven't "tied the knot" so to speak, is, because it's not legal where we live. We don't really mind at this point though. It woulf just be a lot easier financially, being as though we have so many expenses.. I know that she wishes that she could claim me on her taxes LOL!! I'm a pretty high-maintenance chick..I like to have my nails done, my hair fly, and my face banging..I don't really wear much makeup though..Thankfully, I don't need much yet. Just a little powder and lipstick, and I'm ready to go.. I'll be posting some of my poetry here..I may even write some short stories..Who knows? I'll just write about whatever comes to mind..How's that?
Until Then..
