Shopping at Wally World

So, I went shopping today with my youngest boy-- D. It was an all day affair-- Walmart and Sam's. I spent Waaaaayy too much money, but we needed every bit of it.

While we were in Walmart we kept running across a particular Indian family. There were 2 kids, one woman and three men. Everywhere I went in Wally World I saw them congregating around the merchandise as if paying 32 cent more for a bottle of Clorox was going to cause a World War. I get that times are tough, I'm struggling pay check to check myself, but do you have to clog up the aisles with 6 people to buy some Tilex? Really!??!?!?!?! They stood right in the aisle talking with the Tilex in one and another cleaner in the other, with their cart and there were at least 5 other people trying to navigate the same aisle. I thought one woman was going to "kirk-off" on them. *Shout out to Lil Mama for the "kirk-off reference* She almost ran the little woman down!

I get that other cultures have a great respect for the extended family and that they are patriarchal societies, but really?!?!?! sheesh!

Since that is off my chest, I'm gonna get me a big ole yeast roll and some chicken salad and drink one of my industrial soft drinks and go to bed!!!

Music

I haven't posted a video in a minute so I am posting one for a song that has been running through my head for a minute...





I have always love, love, loved SWV- Sisters With Voices!

It has been a long time since I have really felt this way about anybody, but this song playing on repeat in my brain. Enjoy!

P.S. I know that this is gonna make me sound old, but THIS is real music and singing. That other crap out there can kick rocks man, bring back 90's R&B!

Hulu Magic

Happy New Year friends! Twenty- Eleven is destined to be a great year. I am moving towards my purpose professionally (teaching) & spiritually. So excited!
But today I am ensconced in front of my laptop watching Hulu. I am having a ball. Since the cable is off, (again- I'd rather buy boots & dresses than pay some bills. So sue me!) I have been watching all of the old shows that I loved that were cancelled. ABC had some really good shows like What About Brian? , Dirty Sexy Money, and Samantha Who? that were cancelled before they should have. They are really good shows! I have a queue with over 60 shows in it! Hulu also has the best thing ever... 21 Jump Street! I relish the hours I have to swoon over the pre-weird Johnny Depp. So hot!
Anyway, I cannot get enough of what is on Hulu. It is magic!

Last night I went to a pre Watch Night dinner party hosted by my good friends the Slaters. My other friends Prettyface & T- Bone were there as well. We had an absolute ball. Good food, good company & Wii Just Dance! I am in love! The bad thing is that we have XBox & no Kinect so I can't play the game. I guess that when tax time comes I'll be buying the Kinect & Dance Central for the XBox. I cannot wait. I hope that I keep this passion for the game. It is good exercise & baby I need it.

Another splenderific thing that happened is that our group finally went into the studio! It was the most exhilarating experience ever. I was nervous, but we sounded beautiful! I can't wait until the single is released. Since we are independent, it will be on CD Baby & iTunes instead of stores. I expect all of you, my readers to purchase a copy. You won't regret it. The links will be coming soon. Hopefully.

Young Buck was there & silly, attentive & flirty as ever. I just love the way he makes me feel. I forget that I have two almost grown kids @ home. I feel so young & carefree. He makes me want to do dangerous things! Not a good thing.... After the session, which is long & a lot of waiting for vocalists, we ate dinner @ Waffle House. Not 5 star, but adequate. He flirted like no tomorrow. He even tried for a kiss. You know, I might as well give up & give in. Kiss the man. He may be just what I am looking for. Maybe. Eyes, I know that you'll have some advice or some comment that will get me to thinking. I really appreciate that. I know that there are a couple others out there @ least passing through from time to time, I'd love to hear from you too.

I do have a new follower, Milky Way, so I'm up to three (yay!) & I've read your blog & girl you make a sistah have to think- I love it!

So that's my first blog of 2011. A little long, but all me!

Love you & have a blessed new year!
