| I'm a true random blogger!!! .....lol Since my last entry
I've been on the move, literally! I moved back into my home that was
being rented out and found a complete mess along with little
insects that decided to stay instead of leaving with their owner, my
sad ex-tenant.It urks me just thinking about it. I 'll save all of
those goings on for another blog.. Anywho, I finally found a decent
last minute plane ticket to the ATL to visit my girl Stacie
(FrmCali2Atl).... My plane landed last thursday night. The airport was
enormous!!!! I had no clue of where to pick up my luggage...I was
completely bewildered.Luckily a nice Southern gentleman lead me to the
MARTA (the train) and I found my luggage ....Kudos to him!! Friday
night- Got all spruced up to go out to Visions the hottest nightclub in
Atlanta. It turned out to be lukewarm...lol It was a beautiful
nightclub, but I couldn't get into the mix of people. Many of the men
were metrosexual borderline homosexual.... I
can't keep up with all of the titles people are giving themselves
nowadays.I guess I'm old-fashioned. I wasn't too impressed, but at
least I can say I've been there.....lmao... Saturday night-
Stacie made watermelon martini's they were toooooo good.I had about 4
of them.She also played some west coast rap for a sistah. I think she
was making up for all that crunk music I couldn't dance to at the club
and their horrible watered down drinks.... Her newfound southern
hospitality worked!!! I had a ball. Later on her boyfriend
brought over an old high school buddy for me to meet.He was a
young khat doin' his thing at CNN.We all ended up debating over
politics.....It was great!!..hehehe......We also tried to catch a hot
spot to shake our money makers, so we went to Insomnia.This club was
free all night if you were over 25yrs....When we got there the peeps in
the line had grandkids 25yrs old at least
I should have known sumthin' was shady about that
hook-up.............lol Sunday- got to do some sightseeing. we
went downtown to the Coca-Cola bldg. looked around, toke some pictures
with the Coca-Cola polar bear , and tasted
the coca-cola's of the world. went to the underground mall, saw the
Martin Luther King house.didn't get out of the vehicle to see his
memorial (had on the wrong shoes).... the footsies wouldn't let me do
it.. passed all of the HBCU'S and went to Pappadeax's for their seafood
and brunch buffet.the food was great! Monday-met up with a real estate
agent and viewed homes in Dunwoody, Roswell and Alpharetta.The homes
had generous lots. Roswell looked promising .Later that day ,went to
the Lenox mall in Buckhead and looked around... it was cool. there were
alot of Africans walking around ..
Tues- viewed more homes with the agent , went with Stacie to Bed, Bath
and Beyond to pick up some decorative accessories. we also went to the
Beautiful Restaurant in southwest Atlanta.... it was in the hood and I
felt right at home.. the service, food and price was on point... I had
a nice evening that wrapped up my stay in Atlanta.It's a strong
possibility that I might become a resident here.I just have to get over
the flash thunderstorms that give you no warning and the
wildlife that kinda roams freely........lol stories for another
time.oh! check out FrmCali2Atl blog page for pictures of my
visit.... Enough said.....Ciao and Stay Blessed!! | | |
| After of a week of hiatus, I'm finally back to earth...It's soooooo drab  Anywho, I'd just like to thank all my Xanga peeps for wishing me a happy birthday!! Trust me, I needed it!! I've just turned 29 and I realize in few light years I'll be 30.........It's time for a major assessment of my life and purpose on this planet....I mean, I'm Hot stuff on other planets..............lol Seriously, I sometimes paint a mental picture of what I want once I enter my 30's... I envision living with a strong shield of faith, living with a peace of mind, living with direction, living with decisiveness, living without procrastination, living with emotional strength, living with patience, living with discretion,living with honesty, living with little regret and living with purpose........ I have lived the complete opposite in my 20's.......So, In my 30's I will be amending my shell and making it whole...I can see it! therefore, I shall be it!....Salut!! ....... May God have mercy on all of the suffering around the world!!!..... | | |
| Forget my weekend........Nothing compares to the day I've been having   !!! Recently, I've been in the process of selling my home......My only obstacle in achieving this was my tenant...You see, This woman had been in my home for 1yr under the section 8 program...During this time she never paid in full and she neglected to report repair issues. Now, being the civiled minded, God fearing woman that I am, I adopted patience and fostered tongue-biting..I continously made efforts to work with this woman. She had children and I felt sympathy for them.........BIG MISTAKE!!! I allowed my personal feelings to infringe on business... She played on my sympathy.............................I mean, I gave this lady more than enough rope to hang herself with and I did it the legal way....She was properly served with a 30day notice followed by a 3day.....Today made the fourth day and final day of her occupancy....I went to my home to initiate repairs and was confronted with shouts of, "I'm not going anywhere, blah! blah! blah".............. I remained silent.... As she went on, I began changing the locks my house....I was fed up and ready to deal with the consequences of my actions...She ended up calling the police on me...........I guess she thought the law would side with a person who hadn't paid rent and was no longer covered under contract.. The sheriff told her to move on...I was estatic....You see, a person can only take soooooooooo much..I was at my wits end.After a couple hours of being counseled by the sheriff, she gathered the little sense she had and started packing. She then asked if I would stop the eviction process on her...The nerve of her!!! After all of the damage to my property, her unpaid rent and court fees for the eviction......Pleassssssse.In the words of Mos Def, "The hard-headed gotta feel it to believe it." She's got to feel it.............. This situation was just one of LIFE'S LESSONS LEARNED!! In the future sympathy will be replaced with empathy.Anywho, God was on my side.I was fair with her and the almighty knew my heart.Enough of dat for now... talkin' 'bout this done go my pressure up............. Gotta go, got a paper to do! Stay Blessed and Stay Prayful!! | | |
| INVITATION TO LOVE
COME when the nights are bright with stars
Or when the moon is mellow;
Come when the sun his golden bars
Drops on the hay-field yellow.
Come in the twilight soft and gray,
Come in the night or come in the day,
Come, O love, whene'er you may,
And you are welcome, welcome.
You are sweet, O Love, dear Love,
You are soft as the nesting dove.
Come to my heart and bring it rest
As the bird flies home to its welcome nest.
Come when my heart is full of grief
Or when my heart is merry;
Come with the falling of the leaf
Or with the redd'ning cherry.
Come when the year's first blossom blows,
Come when the summer gleams and glows,
Come with the winter's drifting snows,
And you are welcome, welcome.
-Paul Laurence Dunbar
This poem is soooooooo romantic...Love is necessary!
I'll have to share my weekend 2morrow......Adios
