when racism rears its ugly face

Yesterday I went to Harrah's Casino to meet up with my parents who were staying out there for their wedding anniversary. I had to be at work at a 9am.Well Daniell eis there also and we both get off around4pm. We go to Applebee's to have some dinner and then we make it back to her hourse. We chillout there and listen to the new Rob Thicke CD and I must say O"H MY GOD that young man can BLOW!! As we are listening Kamina gets home as well and I thank her for the pretty present she bought me a couple weeks ago but wasn't able to give it to me until today.

Well Kamina left shortly afterwards and Danielle and I were at the house still talkin so we decide to go to the Central West End and go to Starbucks to enjoy some slices of cake and some Strawberriesw and cream frappicino's. After a while we decided to walk up and down Maryland Street to check out the houses and their structers. If we came across one that we liked then we would take a picture of it. Now mind you, it's around 8pm and we are in the Central West End.

As we look at one particular house we notice that their is a FOR SALE sign on the lawn. Danielle takes a couple of pictures of it and writes down the realtor name from the sign. As we go past the house and see a few more on that side, we decide to cross over and look at the other houses. As we are making are way down the other side of the street, Danielle informs me that the man that was sitting 2 houses away from the house with the FOR SALE sign, had gone over to the house with the FOR SALE sign and had ripped the sign out of the ground and then proceeded to take the sign up the stairs to his own house while his wife was standing at the porch.

I couldn't believe it! Yet I saw it with my own 2 eyes. So as we are walking back down the street and look at more houses we finally make it back to my car. As we get right next to it a security car comes racing up the street and CONVENTIENLY makes a U-Turn right past my car. Danielle is heated and states lets just get in the car, I told her know and hold my ground. The security car goes past us and I just take one last look at the house where those ignorant people lived. To think such a beautiful neighborhood held such an ugly fascade. I told Danielle, if I could afford a house on that street I wouldn't buy one. Some places might already have ignorant people living in them, but I'll be damn if I pay a mortgage note to deal with their stupidity.

ALSO for your FYI, the address where the FOR SALE sign was at the address:

4615 Maryland Ave
St Louis, MO 63108

So if you go up 2 houses to a house with dark pillars and seats outside then you will see where the ignorant people live.

WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WELL IT'S OFFICAL, THE CARDS ARE THE WORLD CHAMPS!!!!

All past week St. Louis had been watching the World Series just hoping we might be able to crown ourselves the best! What do you know it finally happens!@! Well on this past Friday I had work along with Danielle. We both got off around 4pm and Kamina came up to the job to meet with us. Bridgette, another good co-worker also was working today. We decided to go to Wattabaa Creek in Fairview, IL for some grub. I had to make quick stop home in that cold ass weather to change my clothes.

Mina meets me at my house and we go in 2 cars across the river to Fairview. Kamina goes to St. Clair mall while Danielle and myself make a quick stop at the local Best Buy to chat up with some people. Then we go to St. Clair Mall to meet up withKamina. Wthin an hour we go to Wattabatta Creek and meet up wtih Bridgette and her 2 kids.

So we are all seated and Kamina gets there around 6 mins. later and we all have ordered food. Unfortunately they phucked up my order so by the time my food comes out, I'm not hungry anymore so I just ask for mine to be bagged up. We then make our way to Marshalls and kill some time there before going to the movie htater to go see THE DEPARTED. Didn't get out of there till1AM something. Overall excellent movie and while we were watching it Danille gets the update that we won the Series. So as we drive back over the river across Downtown we still can see people partying like never before.

Overall it was a GREAT NIGHT!

dream a little dream of me

tip...tap...tip...tap

outside my window I hear the raindrops as they waltz.
Im lying across my bed looking at the tv,
glancing from time to time at the World Series.
Rubbing my hips, I try to shoo away the late night chill.

I trace the outline of my acrylic nails on each of my hands
lightly tapping away on the laptop that is resting on my thighs.
Sleep tries to seduce me down its' lulliby hallway
As I try to holdout for one more song.

My toes play peek-a-boo beneath a pillow,
as I shift position upon my king-size throne
My hot pink camisole slowly rides up from behind
giving me goosebumps as I trace my index finger across my waist and up/down my spine.

Mr. Sandman is making his rounds again,
my eyelids are getting heavy and all I can think about now is,
bring me a dream, make him black as coffee with a touch of cream;)

hey there

Well today I had work and I must say that I left a tad bit pissed off. Suppose work 9:30am to 6pm. yep didn't leave till 6:45pm and that was because I was on the phone with one of the service providers that we carry for over 2 hours!!!!!!!!!!!! for a customer. I finally was able to talk with a customer service specialist who knew what he was talkin about and was forever grateful. I was just fumin so I had to hurry up and clock out quickly. So now I'm home chillin in my bed. Stripped out of the work clothes and I'm lounging in the bed watchin America's Top Model. Waiting for Game 4 of the World Series to start from the Rain Delay.

Well anyway I was home majority of the previous day and celebrated on my bed after Game 3. Oh well, Go Cards!!!!!

a day unto myself

Gabcast! time after time #1





Well yesterday I must say was a better day than Saturday night. Yet then again the Apocolypse would have been better than that night as well. At least i would have had something to look forward to. Anyway I had work from 9am to 5:30pm and I must say it was quite workout;) Never the less I went home and changed clothes to go over Danielle and Mina's house to make dinner. Danielle was the only one there since Mina was already out running the streets. So when I got there I prepared Fried Chicken, Sweet Cream Corn, and some Mac and Cheese. Danielle hooked up the Kool-Aid and we chillout and watch the Cardinals get beat by the Tigers last night.

As we were preparing the food some dude called her and she chin-checked him quickly and hung up the phone. She started talking about guys, ones she has talked to in the past and currently, and the issues with them. I just listened to what she had to say. She stated the issues with some guys, NOT ALL, is that they only want to spend time with you when it benefits them the most. Yet when something goes down and they get some type of wake-up call, that is when they want to change their ways. She said in her opinion, FUCK THAT, if you can't be for real and honest the first time around, you just a waste of space. She goes on further to say that if a guy can't love you for whom you are and only wants to compare you to their ideal chick. Fuck it, tell him to be on his way and not waste your time. If he only comes over or calls you because he want's to fuck, he's selfish, if he calls to make plans and changes his mind without letting you know, he's selfish, she just kept naming off all kinds of stuff and I was lookin at her like, DAMNNNNNNNNNNN.

So as we are eating and watching the game I thought about myself and my own dilema. It was informative to hear from a different perspective and I filed away the info the rest of the night as I saw the Detroit Tigers Pitcher - Rogers put his foot into the Cardinals lineup's ASS!!! Oh well the series is back here Tuesday thru Thursday. Hopefully will sweep their asses;) I have work this evening and will shut it down. So I bid you good morning and have a wonderful day.
