T.G.I.F.

Today has, thankfully, started on a positive note! I am FINALLY feeling much, much better (yesterday I felt awful) and I received a call back from one of the 1,000 applications I submitted! If things go well, I'll be working for the Intercontinental Hotel in Buckhead Atlanta at their front desk. Not necessarily my "dream job" but it's one that will allow me to start some place and work my way up to bigger and better things! I'm 23....I have time....right? I'll be sure to keep you posted on how things go!

Oh! An update on my hair! So as I said in my last post, I got my hair done Wednesday. I totally meant to post pics that day or yesterday BUT my beautician braided my hair HELLA tight and I felt like my head was going to SPLIT OPEN!!! [excuse the visual] Because my hair is natural, I hardly EVER do anything with it besides two strand twists and as a result I've become insanely tender headed......so needless to say, yesterday I was in bed, ALL DAY, deciding whether I was going to leave the hair in or take it out! el.O.el It was just that bad. Since my beautician put a weave cap over my braids to help hold them down as the style gets older, I decided last night to cut it in an attempt to loosen the pressure on my poor head. IT WORKED! :-) I feel 100x's better. Tell me what you think! :-)

...Humpday Happenin's...

HAPPY HAPPY HUMPDAY TO ALL!!!! I remember the days when Wednesday used to be my small beacon of light at the end of the work day tunnel. Now.....it's just Wednesday [shrugs]. Soooo what to do, what to do  on this wonderful, sunny, breezy, humid, sticky summer day??? Stay inside with some A.C.! el.O.el     Just kidding.

Since it's summer and, as some of you may know, my hair is natural; I think it's time for a change [said in my best Barack Obama voice]. I'm so in love with my natural tresses that I can't leave them alone! It's seriously borderline obsessed.....So I've decided to get a sew in! I haven't had one since Nov of '09 and have been itching ever since to get another one. My problem is I believe very strongly that I'm low-key A.D.D.! I get bored AND distracted so easily its sickening. One day I'll want hair that touches my butt crack [excuse the visual] and the next I'll wanna look like Halle Berry! Or I'll get a cute sew in or quick weave, absolutely LOVE IT, then a few weeks later start missing my kinky fro....Not too sure if there's a cure for my illness, but hopefully I'll be so in love with this 'do' that I won't want to let it go! ......doubt it.....haha

Here is what I'm hoping it looks like (the long style)

Once it's complete I'll be sure to post pictures either here, on Facebook, or Twitter...maybe all 3 if I'm just feeling myself that much! :-)

*DEUCE.deuce for now!*

Midnight Memoirs

Looking at my cell it is exactly 12:39 AM. I'm awake...eating grilled veggies....watching Deadliest Catch...and reflecting....

Sometimes I feel like my life totally reflects a movie. Like, I'm living in my own "Breezie" version of Sex in the City...THE TRILOGY! But instead of 'Mr. Big,' my antagonist will lovingly be called: 'Hum Di Lah' (I borrowed that name from my cousin el.O.el)...So! This situation really has me thinking...is it for real?? Or should I be on my guard? Hum Di Lah is a man...in every definition of the word! Interesting, manly, funny, spontaneous, supportive, all of those things most SANE women would look for in a man right??? [waiting for a response....]

It's what I'd look for, provided I were sane [looking around hoping everyone other looked that last comment] Annnnnywhoooooo, I have come to discover that the old saying is quite true, "You never know what you have until you don't have it anymore" or something like that. I know I care, I know H.D.L. cares, but when is all this caring going to lead to something?!?!?! I've never been one to hold my tounge when it comes to expressing attraction or interest in a member of the opposite sex, however deep feelings tend to gimme the heebe geebes! Why do things that feel so easy end up being extremely complicated? I'll never get that....I hope H.D.L. feels the same, if not, I NEED TO KNOW IMMEDIATELY!

.....to be continued....

The Start of it all...

Today begins my journey of self discovery....I suppose it would be polite of me to give ya'll a bit of my background to help you understand why I am where I am today.

As with most girls, it all began with a boy :-)....Love is a crazy thing ain't it??? You fall so hard and fast then POW!!!! [insert car crash sound byte here] You're blind sided and it's over...So needless to say, I met a boy, fell in love, moved away, was disappointed, broke up with said boy, and moved back. Get it? [el.O.el.]     So going through a break up, make up, break up again, loss of employment, and all sorts of other random drama has led me to where I am now.....at my parent's home....in my old room...attempting to regroup. ::sighs::

On the bright side of things, this minor road block in my life has given me lots of time to reflect on things and make some serious decisions.
