Second night in a row of binging on candy and not being able to sleep at all. My sister gave me a box of leftover Halloween candy from her son's trick or treat bag and I couldn't help myself. It was good, so good.

Mmmmm candy good. Especially gummie treats....

 THe last month has been hell. I think I mask it very well because no one would know unless I spilled my story to them. Here's a sample of the crap that befell me this month ( Read more... )

 Ok. I'm ok with people again. I went to the shrimp boil at St. Roch tavern last night and got myself a $5 box of all kinds of good boiled up right delights. The cook is this fun-lovin jolly guy who makes people smile while he's cooking by saying things like "Y'all just wait an' see, you gonna love this!" and jokes about his "kitchen" which is this ( Read more... )

 This is ridiculous. My life seems like its on pause. There's definitely no forward movement...just sort of this feeling like I'm in a waiting room- the second one you sit in alone with no windows and cool magazines to thumb through while you're waiting for the doctor to come in and give you three minutes of his time.

I'm all ANTI -people today.

More later.

 WELL. I haven't posted in a while. Many of my friends have seriously changed in one way or another. Moves-a-plenty, jobs, split-ups and what not. It seems so strange that a couple of years ago I was thinking how boring everything was. Now it is constant change and movement and it seems to be crippling me a bit. My energy is all whacked out. I want ( Read more... )

I just got off the phone with my sister and now we're both very upset. She doesn't understand why I don't come over and visit the baby more often. I don't like babies but I didn't say that. I said, "maybe when he gets a little older like 4 or 5 I'll visit more often." (She wants me to come to her turf, her house and hang out with her family but ( Read more... )

After picking up a record with Shelly Thunders singing "Kuff" I became intrigued with the meaning of kuff.

I looked up urban dictionary defs and found about 4 separate meanings: The other one not listed here lists it as a kind of music. But in the Kuff song, she's talking about being jilted by her man. So i'm thinking she wants to hit him? Anyway ( Read more... )

Sunday afternoon there a moment in Audubon park when I could actually feel the promise of fall. You laugh at me but there was a soft cool breeze on my shoulders as I listened to the gospel/funk stylings of Sista Otis and sipped an icy mimosa in the grass...I thought I'm gonna be ok. We're all gonna be ok.

Just when I start to have faith in human kindness and the possible triumph of the human spirit, I am disappointed again. It never fails. I have been dissed by a new friend who I thought was not only the knees, but the cute little fuzz too, of the bee.

Oh but, thankfully my neighbors are angels, as I am to them, they say...how nice. At least we have ( Read more... )
