Evening Goodies


I have found a blog boyfriend. I am so excited to introduce, Travis who is one of the counterparts of Street Etiquette blog. Travis has a keen eye for fashion. I just love how he puts together his outfits. He can wear anything well. I am feeling him because he gives me an Andre 3000 feel. Lawd knows that man, (Andre) is sent from heaven. I hope ya'll dig Travie as much as me.

Boy Meets World

Street Etiquette
So recently, I have been extremely fascinated in dressing like a male. I have been observing males in general staring at everything. I have been staring at hats, scarves, jeans, jackets and sneakers. When I was fresh from NYC and moved to DC, I had millions of sneakers. I was more of an androgynous dresser. I could make a masculine outfit work for me. I am thinking about bringing that back because as I look at men I think of the outfits I could pull off. In no way am rejecting my 38D breast or my hips, I just want to try something a little different. I am interested in more of the prep boy look. I love the button up shirts, jeans, suspenders and oxfords. Ties are also what make them stand out. I think I can try an outfit for next week or this weekend as long as I wash my dirty ass clothes. SMH

Here is something I created as an interpretation of men's fashion. Majority of the things in this, I have majority of it in my dirty pile. I will try to get it together. LOL

Mental Combustion


[source]
 Good Evening. I feel like I have been living under a rock lately. I have been extremely negative and trying to grasp what is my purpose. I have been working at my job for about 2 years. This job in itself was a blessing because I was let go a day before my birthday and was unemployed for 2 months. In this day and age, who can say they've been only unemployed for two months? It's been a lot longer for people that have higher credentials than me. I have found myself in sort of a mental bind or in self crisis mode because I want to just quit everything and move forward. In a past post I stated that I was leaving my current job and it is bittersweet thinking about abandoning my responsibilities so I could chase a dream. In a professional development session at work today, I started to connect the dots of what was making me unhappy. I am not challenged nor do I feel that I am an asset to the organization. I feel that my potential is bottled up like fireworks ready to explode. I think I am going through mental combustion. My brain is painting pictures of what if and doubt. The meeting talked about taking charge and knowing what you want. I know what I want but at this time I am wondering if it is even conducive to my work. I cannot up and leave without a game plan. As it stands I already have five months that I will be broke but the way I see that is five months of no money is the springboard for a CAREER not just a job. I guess at this point I have to suck it up and deal. I do not want to settle so I will try to make the best of my situation.

Weekend Recap

Good Afternoon All!
This weekend was interesting, to say the least. I ventured off with Chimi and my two sisters, Janee' and Crishana to the Big Apple. Chimi, Janee' and I branched off from Crishana and decided to hit the streets of New York for shopping. Needless to say that was an all-day event. We capped off our night by going to BBQ's (which I am accustomed to since Chimi first introduced me to this awesome place). We enjoyed our dinner and big ass Rum Punches (Texas Size). After going to the restroom and trying to get ourselves together, we almost got rained on with vomit by some woman who looked like she couldn't hold her Rum Punch down (of course we ran like shit)! Getting home around 1am, we called it quits.
The next day, we went out to do more site seeing and shopping. We met back up with Crishana and took on the streets once again. We went to Golden Krust, where I got what I wanted for a minute now. We enjoyed beef/chicken patties, coco bread, I got my Ting and we were on our way back to Chimi's grandma's house. My sister's and I rested up while Chimi ventured off to see her fam skate. After arriving back, Chimi was ready to hit the streets. Janee' wasn't up for it, so the 3 C's took to the streets. We went to Dave and Buster's, where we played games, had dinner and enjoyed the scenery (including the strong dish carrier and the man with the pimp-style ponytail). :)
While on our way home, I encountered a frightening discovery... we were headed to our train back to Harlem when a big, ugly, nasty ass rat began running through the station. I have a phobia of rats, so I hauled ass, takin Chimi with me (for guidance), yet leaving Crishana behind. I was scared as hell. Needless to say, I was paranoid in that train station and didn't feel safe until we reached our destination, which we did at about 3am. (Relief!)
Yesterday, we stayed in Harlem, going to the stores in that area. It was cold as hell. We stayed out most of the day and had dinner at AppleBee's (which was weak as shit, but the food was good). We headed back to get our duffles, totes, etc., and were back out to make our bus back to DC.
I enjoyed my time in NYC and hope Chimi, Janee' and Crishana did too! :)

Let me introduce this good looking brother here. His name is Frank Ocean and his album Nosalgia, ULTRA is currently being blasted from my computer. I have found my self singing his lyrics. Foul language fills his thought provoking music about relationships, sex, and other miscellaneous topics. I am feeling his song Nature Feels which samples MGMT's Electric Feel. Ummmm I just love listening to the story he tells and how sexy it would be to do what he is talking about. Overall he is dope. Thanks Carly and her music connect.

Nature Feels by Frank Ocean

Spring is in Bloom

This weekend I experienced a DAMN oxymoron. How the hell is it Spring and it's cold as shit? I have been putting on my bubble jacket for about 5 days now. My ass is cold. I'm tired of this damn weather. Where is the high 50s and 60s? Well since I cannot get what I want right away, I thought of finding colors that will bring Spring to me. Pastel colors and Neon colors are the nail trends for Spring and Summer. While in Nordstrom Rack, I saw this girl with baby blue toe nails and I thought they were so cute that I got a manicure shortly after with OPI What's with the Cattitude? It's a baby blue that was very divine but I did not feel like paying $10 for it. Instead I went to other stores and racked up on gorgeous colors and found a baby blue for spring. I cannot wait for this blue to start chipping so I can experiment.
Green- Roberta's Green Garden (Beauty Supply)
Lavender- Crowded (UO)
Peach- Hangover (UO)
Baby Blue- Factory Girl (Ricky's)
Red/Pink- Love Struck (Ricky's)

Outfit of the Day

Morning. I seemed to have not been doing these posts lately. I guess it's all because I haven't been wearing fly gear to work because I am stressed. This semester is coming to an end rapidly and of course it's kicking me in my hind part along the way. I have been slippin'. My apologies. LOL
I got in this morning from NYC and am I am trying to survive on the clothes I have left in my closet and drawers because I am in need of doing my damn laundry. It's to the point that it's gettting trifling. I want to say I'm gonna wash them but who knows. I might do my regular and buy new clothes. Today's outfit is work casual. Jean trousers, blue button up, creme sweater, clog boots, and a brown belt around the waist. I accessorized with blue earrings and sky blue nails.
My hair is in its usual afro puff on the top of my head. I need to get my hair together.

Romeo on Dancing With the Stars



I have been looking for this video all day. I guess since I went to other websites and wasn't able to see his performance, when I finally got to see it, I had to post it. Oh how he's grown from a little kid with a TV show to having a man's body. I liked watching him move across the floor. It got my blood moving around. About to have hot flashes LOL

Chris Brown can't catch a damn break!!!



Morning. I am supposed to be doing my damn homework but here I am writing about Chris Brown's incident this morning. According to Vibe.com, Chris had an outburst after an interview. He broke a window with a chair a ripped off his shirt as he walked through Times Square. I also heard rumors that the NYPD got that ass. What the FUCK is going on exactly? I am at a lost for words. I don't know him nor am I passing judgment. I guess these are the happenings of the day.

Weekend Recap

Morning. I feel like I haven't touched a computer in a few weeks to write a post let alone just a few days. This weekend was glorious as majority of the other ones I have. This one was one for the books. Carly and I spent a lot of time together and I became well acquainted with my bed.

Friday, I got off of work at 5pm which was an hour early than normal. I actually didn't leave work until about 25 minutes later looking around for my favorite pashmina I lost. I decided to give up cuz it was a lost cause plus I was going to New York the following weekend so I could purchase another one. I met Carly at Target in the bathing suit section. She was helping me to find a cover up for our trip. I didn't like anything they had. She paid for her items and we were on our way to Silver Spring. We took the bus up there and due to my expertise we got on the wrong bus. LOL When we finally got on the right track, we headed straight to Asian Bistro and ate. I had some a Rainbow Maki and California Rolls. Since I am putting aside all greasy foods until Easter, I had to opt for the rolls that did not have tempura, crab sticks or any other fried foods. I felt uberly betrayed because Carly got the Spider rolls which was my favorite rolls to get from Asian Bistro. These rolls had fried crab meat, avacado, and all these fixings that are divine with spicy mayonnaise. She sat there and enjoyed the shit outta her food while I ate my non-greased meal. After our fine dining we went to browse around in Ulta and DSW. Majority of the time when I go to DSW there is never really anything that I like. This time around the stuff I liked were not in my size or either they were not a price I would pay for shoes that would eventually be in my give away pile. Determined to get me drunk, Carly and I escaped Silver Spring and ventured to Chinatown to Ruby Tuesday. Ruby Tuesday was packed. People were watching the Final Four games and we were trying to get a seat at the bar. When seats were finally available we sat and were served our usual drinks. Carly gets a Red Sangria and I get a Strawberry Margarita. As we are sipping on our drinks Carly and I start to checking the scene and laughing at everything and we attracted men with our giddiness. On one side there was a large dude from New York, and on the other side was a freckled faced cutie and his fat cousin aka Fatz. We talked to them all night and we stayed at Ruby's until the lights came on bright. Overall I had a great time and left with a number that night. LOL Now on to Carly. She is fucking hilarious when she is tipsy. I don't even know what to call it cuz she was past her peak. I was walking with her and she was moving all over the place. When we finally got home she TORE into some Chipotle. LOL The wall was her friend that night. I cleaned off my bed and she took her position on her side of my bed (Trey Songz voice).

Saturday, I woke up at around 8 am and decided to go back to sleep. I woke up two hours later looking forward to an adventure. Carly comes up with the idea to go to Georgetown so she could go to Victoria Secret. We get dressed and get on the X2 crosstown to catch the Georgetown Circulator. Before we got on the X2 a drunkard with pimp shoes excuses himself and tells us that the Remy he had was good. He downed what he had and gets on bus. As the stops go by, we finally hit Chinatown. The drunkard bumps into the door and I can hear something drop. I couldn't see what it was until I reach over to see he dropped his phone. I jump out of my seat ask the busdriver to open the back door. With my cape flaring in the air I look for the man. I didn't see his ass so I left his phone on a metal box in the middle of the sidewalk. I then hear Carly calling me and telling me the direction of the man. I ran to him give him his phone and the busdriver screams out if I was still getting on the bus. I jump on the bus and we pull off. Carly is cracking up in the front of the bus and I could hear a man's voice say, "You jumped off the bus to do all that good and was gonna leave the man's phone there?" I looked at him and exclaimed the man had his phone. Man I'm happy I wasn't on my evil shit cuz a lot of words played in my mind. Some were "Shut the fuck up, Who asked you? and all the other profanities I could think of. When Carly and I were getting off at 14th Street he decided to give me another lecture on how if I find a phone I should keep it and wait for someone to call. That in itself was the meat and potatoes. Carly laughed my ass out. I had to laugh with her to keep from crying. She kept stating "Today is Saturday, I didn't know you were gonna get schooled?" I could've swore tears rolled down her damn cheeks. She tried to pick my brain on exactly what happened and at the point in time I wasn't thinking. I just reacted. So I had a Chris Brown moment (blonde) Oh Well!!! We went off to Georgetown went to H&M, Urban Outfitters, Banana Republic, and Sephora before we went Old Glory to eat. Barbequed food I could eat (Thank goodness) and I opted for Sticky Chicken, collard greens and mac n cheese. Carly had Sticky chicken, ribs, baked potato and collard greens. That food was good. So good Carly's shirt had to join in on the festivities. We left Georgetown with the ITIS and went to Metro Center to go to Forever 21, Zara, and the H&M there. We ended our outting with Fro Yo.

Sunday, I slept all day while Carly was at work. The only thing I did was eat spaghetti and an Alma treatment and went back to sleep. When Carly got home from work, I finally got up and got to working. I tried to do some Spring Cleaning and all we got around to doing was to pick out possible outfits for our trip. I am packed already. LOL I washed the Alma out my hair and painted my nails. I finally went to sleep at 3am this morning.

Fired-Up Friday

Good evening folks! Today is such a beautiful day. With just 2 days left before the premiere of Spring, the weather is showin off and so are some folks in my neck of the woods. My morning started off with a top-speed chase. My lil sister was droppin me off and before we made it to my house, a green Cadillac came from out of nowhere... heading straight-forward towards oncoming traffic. The police was directly behind him. While I was amazed that the car was flying on our narrow ass street, my sister was mad since she missed the chase! (Crazy ass girl!)
Now, while on my way to meet Chimi, I have seen the most molly-wopped, monkey-trollopped messy ass folk eva! Just because its past 60 degrees does not mean you are supposed to go outside with your damn titties poppin outta ur damn shirts (or lack thereof)... smdh. These shennanigans are bound to happen... especially in the hood (as Chimi affectionately calls it). Whatever the case, I hope everyone is enjoying the weather, as I am about to myself! Have a good weekend people!

Chris Brown Leaked-Response




I couldn't help but watch this video. I know we over at Chimi and Carly have not endorsed any full nudity pics but however, Chris Brown talking about his tan sausage being exposed on the internet is extremely interesting. Besides him turning beet red, he says that in the picture he was chillin and wasn't even excited. O_o WOW Chris!!! I think I will be on Chris Brown's fan list from this day forward.

Outfit of the Day

HUMP Day... So today I woke up the time I leave for my house so I had to come to work little later than my 7am shift. When I got up officially, I decided to wear a dress. I bought a denim dress from Urban Outfitters about three months ago and decided to give it a try. It has a V-neck front and shows some of my bosom. To cover that up, I put on a new accent piece I bought from a street vendor in Williamsburg. It's like a copper necklace that is vintage because its a turqouise color (like old pennies). I put on some nude tights and my new boots. As the day has gone on I see that I have two large holes in my tights. I look like a prostitute with these damn holes. I heard that distressed tights were in so I guess I'm gonna just suck it up and just wear them instead of trying to buy new tights.

100th Post

I didn't even notice, that Chimi and Carly has gotten to its 100th post. (This is 101. LOL). I think I might make some cupcakes today just to celebrate.LOL Thank you to the followers for looking at our posts and commenting. It means a lot to us.

New News

Yesterday, I had a meeting with my advisor at school. I was a little hesitant to go meet her because this was our first interaction and she of course has all my grades on her desktop. I for one am not the greatest student. My summer session for one was one for the Fucking birds. I got an A in one class and FLUNKED two other classes. When I say flunked I do not mean like a C or anything I mean a Damn F. I remember how stressful my summer was and I am just happy to be back on the right track. Anyway, I walked into her office turned in paperwork and she was impressed by my resume. She told me I was on the right track to graduation. Yay!!! I guess I am excited because I have to turn over a new leaf. I found out that I will have to do an internship. That means I will have to leave my job to work somewhere else. I am a little afraid to leave the nest and there are a lot of things going through my mind. I will be jobless for 3 months and I'm just thinking of alternatives for a part-time job. Hopefully if everything goes well, I will have a full-time position after I graduate. Things are seeming to look up. Wish me Luck!!!

Outfit of the Day

Good morning lovelies. I am extremely well rested after my weekend in New York. Getting home at 4:25am on Monday morning and going straight to work was a no go for my body. I will recap on my weekend in another post. Today it's pretty breezy in DC and I opted to wear a black empire dress, black tights, and motorcycle boots (All Black Everything)LOL. To add some color I grabbed a turquoise sweater with tribal print. My hair is in my usual puff. I hope everyone has a productive day.

P.S. I forgot my camera today. I had to opt for the Iphone. LOL

Dress, tights and motorcycle boots


Weekend Recap

Friday, I started my weekend off by going to the bar with one of my homegirls. She was there a few hours before me so she was a little tipsy when I got there. When I sat down she had already had conversations with everyone at the bar. They knew her by name. LOL I ordered my usual drink, Vodka, lime juice and tonic and observed the happenings. People were getting out of pocket. It's so funny how when you observe people and their mannerisms you get to learn a lot about a person. I saw a decent looking man with a muscular build that I could tell from his mannerisms that he was from New York. He had a diddy bop and all that. After my three drinks, I mustered up the courage to ask him. We had a little conversation. He told me where he was from (a few blocks from my old stomping grounds), and exclaimed he liked my "nerdy" look. I couldn't help but smile because I guess that's what I look like (sarcasm). LOL I got dropped off at home and packed for my ride to New York.

Saturday morning, 5:00am I arrived in New York and took the train Uptown to my grandmother's house. I went to sleep as soon as I got in the house. When I woke up, I could hear her in the bathroom. I got up, and suprised her. She then asked what I would do for the day. I told her my intentions for going to Soho to shop and look for items at the thrift store. She then asked me to come with her and her friend to Queens to go to Annie Sez, a clothing store that has discounted clothes. I got dressed and we were on our way. It took us FOREVER to get there. We got lost in the process and it was cold as SHIT out there. I did not have on a hat and had to use my Pashmina as a head wrap. When we finally got there, I was not impressed. I hated the clothes in that store. When I walked over to the shoe section, I saw a huge purple box with a pair of Madden Girl boots. I looked at the price of the boots and they were 50% off. I looked in the boots to see whether they were my size. EUREKA!!! They were my size and my price. While I waited for grandma, I played my addiction Words with Friends. Finally, she was ready to go and we went back to Manhattan so that she could take care of some business. I was a little annoyed because I wanted to branch out and she wanted me to stay with her. Instead of telling her my frustrations, it showed all over my face. We walked all over the damn place. I had an unlimited Metrocard and wanted to use it.LOL I was being lazy I know but where ever her friend wanted her to go she went. I just wanted to leave them alone so that I could do my own thing which would have been detrimental to my pockets. I ended that night going to Cafe Wha? in the West Village which is a live entertainment dining spot. After the event I walked to the East Village took some pictures and ate Frozen Yogurt in the middle of the night. I took a LOOOOONNNNG bus ride home and went to sleep.

Sunday, I was awakened by a call from my little cousin to hang out. I decided to spend my Sunday in Williamsburg, a fashionable place in Brooklyn. Williamsburg has many thrift stores and vintage shops that were extremely crowded that day. We manuevered to majority of the Thrift shops where I was able to pick up a few things and decided to eat at Pop's. Pop's is a hole in the wall burger joint which had poor decor according to my grandma. Needless to say she was not exactly happy with her food as well. I almost had an EPIC FAIL because as soon as my cousin's fries hit the table, I picked one up placed it 2mm from my mouth and dropped it down. I couldn't believe I couldn't have french fries. My decision to give up fried foods for lent actually hurt a little. I ate Chicken tacos and grilled corn and washed that all down with a Snapple. When we left Pop's, we hopped back on the train and went back to my Grandma's house. I went to sleep and did not wake until about 10pm. I packed my clothes and watched Lifetime until it was time to go. When I left I kissed my Grandma and told her I'd see her in two weeks. Overall it wasn't the kind of weekend to write about but it had its highs and lows

Zumba

So I just finished coming from Zumba with my big sista and her coworker. Being my first time, I didn't know what to expect. It was breath-taking (literally taking my breath away). From start to finish, we were working out (with mini breaks for water). Nevertheless, it was interesting. We went to a $5 Zumba Class at a community center in Bowie, Maryland.
Arriving early, I was able to scope out the area. My sista was tryin to tell me how packed it was. I overheard the men at the front desk comparing it to a Michael Jackson concert because of the long lines. They even went as far as getting a police officer on standby for the long lines. Needless to say, the place was packed. Seeing the instructor, a petite woman named Rachel, I wasn't sure of the speed/feel of the class. This lady (and her comrades) worked us out! It was as though they never got tired. All in all, it was a helluva workout (I had to crank out this post early cuz I might be dog tired aka knocked out later).

Smith Commons



Yesterday, it rained cats and dogs! That didnt stop Chimi and I from venturing out to celebrate her grade in her Research class and my job interview (hopefully with promising results). We decided to go to Smith Commons, a new restaurant on H Street NE. After fooling ourselves into trying to enter 2 doors, both of which were not entries, we stepped inside to get a closer look. Needless to say, it was lovely on the inside. The decor was unlike any decor we have seen in other restaurants (Chimi has some pix). It would have been a lil more interesting, had there been more people there (perhaps we should go again when its late). We ordered our drinks and sat down. Chimi admired the building, as I admired the strongness of my drink. ;)
We didn't stay long, having Sticky Rice on our minds for dinner. So we walked across the street to eat. Chimi, having opted for no fried foods and no soda, had to look a little bit longer at the menu. I knew I wanted a bucket of tater tots and sticky chicken (both of which were really good)! All in all, we enjoyed ourselves!

Lent: 40 Days and 40 nights

[source]
Good morning. Today is the first day of lent and I sat across my bed with Carly trying to figure out what to give up. I am not Catholic but I do like to be supportive of all religions and learn about their religion. It's kind of of like the saying "When in Rome do like the Romans". As I sat I got to thinking of tangible goals for my next 40 days. I thought of giving up soda and all the motherfuckers (My words exactly) in my life. I had to think about motherfuckers a while because it's hard to give them up especially if you work with them and have to conduct yourself in a professional matter. So this morning I decided to focus more on giving up all carbonated drinks and fried food. I will replace carbonated drinks with water, and the fried foods with grilled or baked food. More salads and a better way of life for 40 days. I wanted to give up fast food in general but Carly stated that restaurants were fast food as well (I still do not agree).

The reason why I want to give up motherfuckers is because at this point I am not liked by a particular person. This same time last year, we were courting and one year late we hardly talk. Majority of the reasons he is not talking to me is because of my ways. I can admit that I am an asshole at times and when angry I see red but I am overall a sweet person. I stopped talking to him clearly because I think he is bitch-made. We would have discussions about how we could rectify the situation and only I would hold my end of the bargain. I told him how I felt and he never changed it. I shed one tear and refused to shed anymore. In recent news I tried my hand at being a friend. Try to be supportive, ask how he was doing and all that good stuff. Yesterday, I called him a liar about something he didn't lie about. From someone else I heard he felt attacked and that I was being the old me. The old me to him was the mean person that wasn't able to open up and always cracked jokes. When I called him a liar it wasn't my intention to offend but if he felt a way I felt it should have been addressed. Because it was not addressed and his reluctance to respond to speak to me when I direct conversation his way, I decided to stop trying. I guess I am his poison. It's more like me trying to be out of sight out of mind. He will be part of my lent. I think it is for the best because someone else's trash is another's treasure. I have to grow to understand that I will not be on everyone's level and we may not always meet eye to eye. These are just the seasonal people that were at the climax of the rollercoaster but lack luster at the end. I have a lot of growing to do as far as relationships.

Outfit of the Day

Wednesday... It's HUMP DAY... The week is almost over thank goodness. Last night I heard it was supposed to be raining today. When I woke up I didn't see rain so I put on a dress. I stopped caring about the weather and just decided to get dressed and get dressed in a fast time. I pulled a dress out of my closet I got from Eastern Market in the Summer and paired it with a sweater and boots. Day 3 of Bantu Knots and they still look good. I'm missing my waist belt.

My visit to the Dentist

[source]
Yesterday, I went to my dentist. Where I go to get my teeth examined is unlike any other place people go to. I go to the dentist in the "hood" and when I say that word I use it loosely. I go to DC General Hospital outpatient clinic. DC General according to Washingtonians is the worst place in the DMV to go for anything let alone let them examine my teeth. I am kind of a rebel I guess when thinking about people's opinions and making sure that I go against the grain. I wanted to try them out because they were close to my house. I have been going there for almost a year and it's rarely ever a dull moment in this office.

People curse up a storm because the waits are so long but mind you we are at this clinic because we do not pay insurance. Thanks to DC Government if you make a certain amount of money they cover your healthcare. I became eligible when I became a DC resident but also because I was unemployed at the time. Yesterday like any other day was ride. When I walk in the office I walk to the receptionist desk, insert my information and go have a seat. I sat in the corner playing words with friends and reading a book that made me doze off. In my boredom I could hear people saying, Bitches, motherfuckers and what have you. I could hear an argument right next to me in its full entirety. I decided to take out my trusty Iphone and documented everything they said. LOL Now for our featured presentation (Ummm Hmmm * clears throat)

Tracey and Michael: A Novella

Tracey and Michael are a married couple around their mid-40s. They are at the dentist office together waiting to be called for their appointment and they have a dispute.

Tracey: "Be a man"
(Michael walks out of dentist office into the hallway)
Tracey: "Evil Bitch"
(Michael comes back in to sit down)
Tracey: "I'm not gonna have man staying with me at my mother's house, laying in my bed disrespect me. For all that why don't you give me a divorce so you can stay your ass at your own mother's house?"
Michael: "Maybe I'll do that Tracey"
Tracey: "You have an attitude. You snap on me I'm gonna snap the fuck back."
(Michael sits in silence)
Tracey:" You can kiss my ass and go to hell. Pay the bills and be a motherfucking man. I'm your wife not your fucking girlfriend.
(Michael still in silence)
Tracey: "You always walk out when we are arguing. You got me fucking bent outta shape"
Michael: "Why don't you tell everything Tracey? Why don't you leave me alone?"
Tracey: "We can pay some bills if wasnt drunking all the damn time. Snap on me cuz you fiending for a fucking beer. I aint no fiend"
 -END-

They then call my name. LOL I was really into their argument being nosy as hell. I like going to the dentist because there is never a dull moment plus my dentist is attractive. As he was getting the gunk out my teeth he was so sweet and considerate. He asked me was he hurting me and all that. I felt special. Like it was my first time all over again. Dr. Jackson I <3 U. LOL

Outfit of the Day

Today I'm feeling real ballsy maybe even controversial. Recently, I was approached by a co-worker about how to ask someone to go home because what they were wearing to work was unprofessional. I gave my opinion and suggestions. Mind you this girl had on shorts on the day that it was about 70 degrees in DC. I heard what she had on was unprofessional because they were jean cut-offs. So I got to thinking, are shorts professional for the workplace? Last night, I got a challenge from Carly and she even came up with the concept of what I should put on with the outfit. This morning when I stepped out of my house I had to tweet to tell the world that I might go home because of my shorts but so far so good. I just walked past majority of the high bosses at my job and no one said a thing. HAHAHAHA I have on my professional shorts.


I tried the full shot.
