why didn't I think of using this clip instead of "still I rise"? not saying maya angelou's poem isn't inspiring...

She Just Knew...

It is Memorial Day 2014. Time to remember those who served our country in our history's most memorable battles. While you guys are doing that, I'll enjoy a bowl of Grape Nuts as I FINALLY can get started on another blog to post for my fans out there...all three of them! Maybe there is more than that, but they don't stay long enough to even send me a nice commentary or something creative. Whatever works for the weary-headed.  Let me tell you folks what's been going on here, besides nothing. Seriously. I got to get in touch with my sister Annette in Minnesota. May 10th was her 52nd birthday, and she and her accountant hubby Jerry just recently celebrated 23 years of marriage this month as well. How quaint, right? Anyhoo, I tried a few times calling her on her birthday to no avail. I left a couple of messages to let her know I called. Where was this broad? She was actually in Virginia, attending my cousin's commencement from Hampton University. Another graduate of...

Here Comes the Holidays

We are now in the last month of 2014. Not far now from Christmas and the beginning of 2015. The days are short and crisp, the nights are long...and the tension over TWO grand juries NOT pressing charges against the police after they were involved in shooting deaths of two unarmed Black men - one of them was clearly seen via smartphone in a choke hold - is still seething in the minds of numerous Americans from all walks of life. They have been showing their anger of police force by marching down our main streets and highways protesting something we blacks know all too well...police mainly doesn't give a shit about us. I have heard the reports out of the horse's ass themselves. Grand juries hardly ever indict the officers sworn to protect them. Even in the case of Eric Garner, who as I mentioned was taken down to the ground via a choke hold AND recorded AND seen by practically everybody, justice should have come for New York's finest on the asthmatic hefty father of 6....

Goodbye Dave, Hello, Employment!

-
We're nearing the Memorial Day weekend, and one of my icons from tv is calling it a career this week....and I did get a job. That schedule's not set in stone. I'm going to have my eyes peeled the next several nights as David Letterman is saying goodbye after 33 years on tv. Hell, having no social life to the current thanks to all these nights watching Johnny and Dave. At least it's kept me safe from whatever shit's on the street. A part of my life is coming to a close and it's time to open a new chapter of my life...as Kayleah Madison. On this eve before Letterman's swan song, I'm constructing another blog that I'm sure no one will read unless I give them a link to this. To keep me company, I'm watching/listening to Chicken Run on Netflix. Thanks to this, I am now up to date on both seasons of Orange Is The New Black . So many movies to catch up on, so many reasons to giveth a shit.  Back in 2012, around my 42nd birthday, I never actually s...
