Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving and happy birthday to my sister-in-law Maria and congratulations to she and Kevin on the newest member to our family, Kiah. (am i spelling her name right?)
Now, if you are looking for my normal rant and soap-box murmurings, stop because I'm not doing it. We are now entering the holiday season and we all have to be greatful and happy about something. So, no more on-line whining about whatever. Be happy and promote well-being amongst your peers. Besides, I'm a little sleepy.

Whass been goin on

Y'all would not BELIEVE the ____ I have been going through lately. And, of course, it is mostly self-caused.
That one guy I used to talk about all the time won't talk right to me anymore so I gave up and I'm too busy anyways. So I mostly just work and these guys that I meet want to know why I don't have a boyfriend. They are poking around trying to figure out what is wrong with me. (where will they start?) I told one guy the problem is that I talk too much, I'm hardheaded and don't like being bossed around so I have no man. He started bossing me around so I left.

By the way, the most popular link on my Web site, http://photosmidwest.blogspot.com is the "Drunk As Hell" link to all of the photos of tore-up folk. Go check it out.

Compromise

It's good to compromise, find a common ground in which to settle differences. However, too much compromise can be dangerous. Sometimes we can bargain away any glue and legs we have keeping you upright. Before you know it, you're a pool of _____ lying in the middle of the floor. People are stepping over you and whatnot.
So compromise with caution and wisdom but above all, compromise.
Oh, and by the by: Happy birthday Nicie
And another thing: That Olay Nighttime Regenerist Serum really works. It costs like $19 at the store (I go to Walgreen all the time)
Hey can the company send me some free samples of all of the Regenerist products? I'm in love.

I got another job

I haven't been writing on my blog because I got a job. Now, I'm the not-broke-that-much diva!

Broke Diva (copyright LJM 2006)

I have never bought any stock or reaped any great financial benefits from keeping my nails done, wearing colored contacts, three-inch heels and hair down to my waist but yet I continue to do it.
I buy clothes that can only be worn to a nightclub because if I wore it to the office the boss would want to either send me home or take me home right away.

I am a Diva but I am a Broke Diva.

What if I removed the nail tips (New York manicure courtesy of Hollywood Nails in Griffith, IN) and the waist long stick straight brown hair with light brown streaks? What if I put my clear contact lenses in instead of the amethyst ones I wear?
How would my public receive me then?
(What if I stopped referring to the people that I meet each day as my public?)
What if, with revamped attitude in hand, I reintroduced myself to the world as just plain old Woman? You know, the real me. The me that my friends know. The one they've been knowing since the seventh and eighth grade? Plain old me.
I would be so boring. No one would pay any attention to me. I'd look just like any other woman walking down the street. My nails would revert to the hideous nubbs I once wore. (man hands--ewww)
My hair would just lay there in a layered bob of sorts--you know the mommy/working woman/ housewife hairstyle we have all worn at some point until we got that really great haircut.
The changes I speak of would certainly thrill my family. Although, I wonder if they too have gotten used to noticing my hair before noticing me. I'm sure it lends a certain excitement to their day figuring out how I'll look each day.
HMMMM.... (I'm actually thinking right now, watching the cursor blink.)
Nah, Broke Diva shall reign forever and ever because I like her too.

She's like this past model chick that never modeled but just thought she could, that's all fat and stuff but still has that cheery personality and lots of stories about celebrity sightings and stuff. And she's always into stuff. She seems to lead a very exciting life filled with intrigue, danger and lots and lots of turmoil. (really most of her time--like everyone else's--is spent keeping up appearances)

Yeah, I like Broke Diva and I think I'll keep her. Hey, maybe I'll give her some money so that she's not so broke anymore.
Then she can just be Diva.
(this is me thinking about where I can get a second job, watching the cursor blink)

Original Content

I've been so out-of-hand lately.
I know my place and all but I just don't know what has gotten into me.
For instance, I was told to stay at home and fininsh cleaning but instead I went to work. Now it doesn't matter that it was I who said stay home but why didn't I listen?
Okay, bad example.
Yesterday I was told to shut up but I didn't, Matter of fact, I talked even more. This insanity has to end. I'm putting my foot down.
You know, men folk don't like a sassy woman. They got a war to fight and all and other manly things to do and they don't have time to deal with a sassy-mouthed, hardheaded woman. This I know to be true.
Just ask any of them about it. Ask them if they mind putting up with your mindless chatter, endless requests and paying attention to you. Ask any of them. The answer will be a resounding No!
If you women would just do what the man says, get his dinner on time (and don't burn it) and stay out of his way, the world would be a much, much better place.
There, I said it.

P.S.
Luther Campbell of 2 Live Crew, chimed in on the Middle East war this morning on Fox during Your World with Cavuto.
He said America should stay out of it because it is a regional situation. In other words, if America got into it, it would turn into a free-for-all over there and lead to World War 3.
"I'm sitting there looking at kids dying and women bleeding--I don't think that's good for (anyone)," he said.

Reruns: Stupid Questions

April 2005 was a time for reflection and humor. It's almost as if I didn't write the post because I laughed and I'm still giggling--sorta.
I don't know what I was going through I'm sure it was trivial and blown completely out of proportion by me but go read it anyway.
Click on the title of this post and page down a little and you will see "Stupid Questions."
