birthday update

well, once again, thanks to Sid and Princess, i went out last night and had a good time. thankfully the place wasnt crowded, and three nice ladies bought me some O'Doul's non-alcoholic beers ( i still got a little buzzed tho LOL). i dressed in black with my killer leopard boots, purse and belt, and if i must say myself, i think i looked damn good *smile*

my Capricorn guy friend came down and hung out with me, and i shared my beers and smokes with him. he was depressed because his g/f had found another man, and he had went over to her house to get the swerve on, and got his feelings hurt. oh well. shit happens. with all the carousing and shit he did on her i just say payback is a muthafucka.

i dont know if i have an invisible label on me that says, "all losers can dance with me" but this one guy, who reminded me of one of the "Sopranos" *shudders* insisted i dance with him. i did, and i had to keep stepping back because he was trying to push all up on me and i hate when men do that. then he came over to where i was sitting in the corner and still tried to kick game to me. i nodded like i was truly interested *insert yawn here* and finally eased away. it's for that kind of shit that makes me not want to go out -- it never fails -- it's always some horny old fart that wants to step to me.

anyways, the joint is having a New Year's Eve party -- but i aint going, because i know the old fart drunks will be on the prowl and i aint havin it. my oldest daughter is going to come over later and we are going to order Chinese takeout and watch some movies, since it's gotten so damn cold out. yep, the dinner downtown got scrapped because we both were just not up to being downtown where the cold winds blow across the lake. plus, a "Law & Order SVU/CI" marathon is on USA channel, and if i had been smart, i could have been taping them *duh*.
but it's all good. it continues on into the new year, so i'm cool with that.

so that's that. i wish everyone a peaceful, prosperous, healthy and happy New Year.

Kwanzaa Principle #6 - Kuumba (Creativity)

since we are heading towards the end of the year, today's Kwanzaa Principle is Kuumba - Creativity.

being creative doesnt always neccesarily mean having artistic talent -- creativity comes in many other forms -- creativity in one's homelife, in one's thinking and also in just day-to-day living. and those of us who suffer mental illnesses have to find positive ways of expressing our creativity -- because we DO possess it -- in ways that will not be detrimental to us. the most popular ways of creativity is thru some form of the arts, be it artwork, sculpture, crafts, writing, singing, and so forth. in fact there are historical people who suffered from mental illness that were brilliant -- the tragic example of Vincent Van Gogh, the famed Edgar Allan Poe, the zany Jim Carrey, the no-nonsense Mike Wallace, and of course, John Nash.

in the New year, let's all combine our respective creative energies together in a positive way.

Kuumba - Creativity.

plans changed due to shitty weather - grrrrrrrr

well due to the shitty weather we are currently having now, my daughter and i decided this would not be a good day to be downtown. it's sleeting like mad out and later on it's supposed to snow - between one and three inches - grrrrrrrrrrrr. but it's all good. we are going to go tomorrow (weather permitting - grrr). besides, my baby is being visited by "Aunt Flo" and i certainly understand that feeling when old "Flo" is dishing out her monthly misery.

however, she told me that she got me the boxed set of the first season of "Law and Order Criminal Intent" WOO HOO!!!! she knows i'm a die-hard "L&O" fan and she said she was gonna try to find the "L&O SVU" boxed set too. yay!!!!

so all is not lost. i'm still gonna go out with my godson tonight and if these old bones will allow me, shake my groove thang LOL.

thanks to all my Blogger friends for the birthday wishes. i appreciate each and every one of you!

this is scary...i love black nail polish!

Your Nail Polish Color is Black

How you're unique: There's nothing about you that isn't unique! Why your style rocks: You are a total indie chick... and you can pull it off! What this color says about you: "I'm a trendsetter and don't care what anyone else is doing!"

who u callin a pig???????

ok i know it's my birthday and i'm gonna go out to eat but to insult me like this is just plain foul LOL

these "word verifications" get weirder every day......this must've been what one drunk said to the other and the guys from Blogger recorded it LOL

Happy Birthday to me -- and Kwanzaa Principle #5 - Nia (Purpose)

well it's offical y'all. yep. i'm an old bag LOL. at 6:15 pm i will be "offically" 47 years old. my oldest daughter is going to take me out to this fancy Cantonese restaurant that she and her boyfriend frequent downtown off Michigan Avenue. i'm going to taste Peking Duck for the first time....i just hope i dont come away quacking LOL. she also has another surprise for me, so i guess i just have to wait and see *waaaaaaaaaa* ok whine moment over LOL --- damn, in 3 years i'll be 50. oh well. i thank the Creator that i made it this far--bad knees and all LOL

this is also the fifth day of Kwanzaa Nia - meaning "purpose"
for those of us who are recovering from mental illness, our purpose, in order to stay on the path of recovery, is to be med-compliant, make sure we maintain open communication with our therapists and p-docs, and if it gets to a point where we feel ourselves starting to relapse, we must seek IMMEDIATE emergency help....because the life you save may be YOUR OWN.

Nia - Purpose

i hope that i'm not boring anyone...

with daily postings of the Seven Principles of Kwanzaa, i certainly hope that it is not boring, nor am i trying to "convert" anyone with Kwanzaa. it is simply a holiday that holds great meaning for me and i share it with everyone who is curious about it, regardless to your ethnic background, and i also encourage you to feel free to click on the link of "The Official Kwanzaa Website" for more detailed information, at your leisure. i do appreciate all who have left comments - thank you sooooo much!

it is my sincere wish that the New Year will hold prosperity, peace, peace of mind, positivity and happiness to those of us here in Blogland who are afflicted with psychiatric illnesses. it is my wish that one day we will be free from the shackles of these illnesses and be able to function as we did before we were diagnosed.

peace blessings and love to you all.

Kwanzaa Principle #4 - Ujamaa (Cooperative Economics)

Today's Kwanzaa principle is Ujamaa (Cooperative Economics). This principle simply means that African-American people should strive to work together economically and show our support to those African-American businesses and corporations. This does NOT mean that we cannot support other businesses, but in the African-American communities we tend to shy away from Black-owned businesses and venues and unlike other people of color, who work together for the common good, unfortunately African-Americans are quick to criticize and not lend support to our brothers and sisters. Cooperative economics is like pooling our resources together and showing support for one another in a positive and progressive manner, and constantly uplift each other so that we as a people can be as successful as everyone else.

Ujamaa - Cooperative Economics.

Kwanzaa Principle #3 - Ujima (Collective Work & Responsibility)

Today's principle Ujima (Collective Work and Responsibility) is Kwanzaa Principle #3.

This means that in order to work together in unity in our communities, we must take responsibility for our actions - be it with family, friends, or within our communities. Taking responsibility to ensure that our children get their education, that we protect them from harm, and also look after our senior citizens and our elders.

Ujima - Collective Work & Responsibility

Kwanzaa Principle #2 - Kugichagulia (Self-Determination)

Habari Gani (what's the news)? well, on this second day of Kwanzaa the news is

Kugichagulia (pronounced "koo-gee-cha-goo-lea) which in Swahili, means "self-determination".

Self-determination means that in order to be a productive member of one's community, one should be motivated to succeed, regardless of whatever circumstances there are that could hinder progress. as in the case of those of us who suffer from various psychiatric illnesses, we must be determined to not let those illnesses rule our livelihoods.

Kugichagulia (self-determination).

why am i not surprised LOL

Kwanzaa - December 26 - January 1

Kwanzaa is an African-American holiday founded by Maulena Karenga in 1966. Kwanzaa is a celebration of family, community and culture. It is also a time of reaffirming African-American people as a whole.

Kwanzaa is NOT a religious holiday nor is it a substitute for Christmas.

Kwanzaa has Seven Symbols and Seven Principles as listed below:
THE SEVEN SYMBOLS:

1) Makao (crops)

2) Mkeka (mat)

3) Kinara (candle holder)

4) Vibunzi (ears of corn)

5) Zawadi (gifts)

6) Kikombe cha Umoja (the Unity cup)

7) Mishumaa Saba (the 7 candles)


The terminology used in the celebration of Kwanzaa are as follows:

*Kwanza - means "first fruits"

* Kwanzaa (with 2 a's) an African-American celebration

* Habari Gani (what's the news?)

*Harambee - let's pull together (during the celebration 7 "Harambees" are uttered)

*Karamu - the feast or culmination of activities


There are also Seven Principles that are associated with Kwanzaa, and with each day's Principle it is prefaced by the phrase "Habari Gani (what's the news?) and the response is that day's Principle. So since today is the first day of Kwanzaa, the first Principle is :

UMOJA - Unity. Unity of all people of color, unity within our communities, unity with all the people of the world. Where there is UNITY, there is STRENGTH.

Hugs to all of you!

a hard , errrum, "phone" to swallow....????

Woman Swallows Cell Phone After Argument
By Associated Press
Fri. Dece 23, 5:04 PM

BLUE SPRINGS, Mo. - It was a conversation stopper. A lovers' dispute over a cell phone took a serious turn early Friday morning when the woman ended the spat by swallowing the phone whole.

Police said they received a call at 4:52 a.m. from a man who said his girlfriend was having trouble breathing. When they arrived at the house they found the 24-year-old woman had a cell phone lodged in her throat.

"He wanted the phone and she wouldn't give it to him, so she attempted to swallow it," Detective Sgt. Steve Decker of the Blue Springs Police Department. "She just put the entire phone in her mouth so he couldn't get it."

Police said an ambulance transported the woman to St. Mary's Medical Center in Blue Springs.

A hospital spokeswoman said she couldn't give details about the woman's health since police have not released her identity.

Decker said police had closed investigations on the swallowing, the first such incident of its kind here.

"This is the first I've heard of this happening," said Decker. "I don't know what kind of phone it was. I don't know if it was on ring or vibrate, either."

yanno, i've heard of "swallowing one's pride" and life being a "hard pill to swallow" but, err, dontcha think this lady took things a tad too far? i guess we should be glad it wasnt one of those old-school "brick" phones.....my question is, will she be billed for uh, "roaming" charges? is um, a "swallowing" clause included in the phone's warranty?

the cop said it was the "first" of such incident of its kind there....damn, are there other places that we dont know of where people have swallowed their cell phones? and if the phone went all the way down, did it ring or vibrate alerting the swallower it was time to take a shit?

i'm sure it would be most embarassing if the swallowed phone had a "voice" tone that came out of the swallower's ass with a Tourette's style command like "ANSWER THE PHONE ASSHOLE!"

this gives a whole new meaning to the phrase "talkin' outta your ass" dontcha think?

i made it thru last night..thanks to Sid *smile*

as previously mentioned, last night was my best buddy's birthday party. in the beginning i was quite reluctant to go, because i have been used to being a hermit and not wanting to interact with the outside world.

thanks to Sid, who talked me thru it last night, i did go and had a great time. it was good to be out and in a festive place and just kick it and have some fun. i did some dancing, a lot of laughing and i gotta say i kinda felt like my old self again. the birthday boy seemed like he too was having fun, and there was plenty of food as well as his birthday cake. so Sid, thank you for giving me that extra push to go out and have some fun.

well, next Friday is my birthday. my oldest daughter says she has a surprise for me (darn, i couldnt get her to tell me what it was LOL).

am i gonna go out and have fun on my birthday? damn sure is...and the next night for the New Year's Eve party too!

to everyone i have come to know thru Blogland, i wish a very Merry Christmas (to the traditionalists *smile*), Happy Holidays (to the non-traditionalists *smile*), for my friends of the Hebrew faith, Happy Hannukah (or Chanukkah), and to my African-American sisters and brothers, Happy Kwanzaa (btw i will be posting the "The Seven Principles of Kwanzaa" for each day starting December 26 on thru to January 1); however, if you would like to learn more about Kwanzaa, at your leisure, i have posted "The Official Kwanzaa Website" link, and you can click on it and find out more information.

most of all it is my deepest wish that we all have a peaceful, positive, prosperous and blessed New Year.

happy birthday to my Capricorn brotha

today is my Capricorn homey Al's b-day. he's 45 today. he has issues about getting older. lemme 'splain.....

<-----this is the birthday boy. now y'all see why i was sprung on his ass for nearly ten years? look at them big brown bedroom eyes...


you see, he was a well-known radio jock on one of the popular hip-hop/r&b stations and he did this overnite show called "Whispers In The Dark." he has the perfect baritone voice for it, very deep and very sexy. women would call in all the time just to hear his voice (hell that's what hooked me, but that's for another story), while he played all the "slow jams". he also is a big ole freak, and would have chicks coming (literally) down to the station and he'd bone 'em right there in the studio. yet looking at him, you wouldnt think he was a wild man...but yep. he would get buckdafuck wild. TRUST ME. I KNOW. i remember we had a birthday party together at this spot 'round my way. we decided to do a "theme" and what we decided on was "Bonnie & Clyde"-- he dressed in a sharp black and white pin-striped suit with the brim and all, and i wore a rather tight black and white pinstriped double breasted dress, black lace bra and garterbelt and "fuck me" heels. well, for this party the folks who helped organize it got strippers for both of us...a girl for him and a guy for me (i was kinda salty they didnt get BOTH for me, but it's all good). nnnnnnnnn-eways, we both got a bit grunk (ok fine, drunk, a'ight?) and you know when you start drinking, inhibitions are tossed to the wind.

ok. when the female stripper came out (damn she was sexy as hell, errr, oh sorry), well ole boy was already fired up, and she started dancing on his lap at first, then she whipped out her boobs
and he started suckin' on 'em. yes. you read that right. HE.SUCKED.HER TITS. then she got down on the floor and started wigglin' her ass and such (whew, is it hot in here?), and then the next thing i knew, my boy had dropped to the floor and was eatin' her pussy. IN. FRONT. OF. EVERYBODY. i shit you not. i mean, that mofo was tearin' up that girls cooch! i got jealous cuz i wanted a shot at it too, but alas, it was not meant to be, dammit. oh well.

alrighty then. my stripper came out, and LAWD! that man was PHY-YI-YINNNNE and hung like a horse. he started bumpin' and grindin' on my lap, which got my juices flowin' and since i was about ready to hump whatever, when he came up on me, i whipped my 44DDs outta my bra and started rubbin 'em over his smooth bald head. yeah. i did it. the men in the crowd went wild and was sayin shit like, "hey, can i be next?" i was close to tellin my stripper to whip his dick out and i woulda titty-fucked him right there, but i didnt. so yeah. both of us got buck-fuckin-wild that night. he still teases me about whippin out mah "girls" on that sexy baldheaded man's head LOL.

ok. back to the story....well, The Powers That Be at the station fired him, because he wouldnt take another time slot, when actually, me thinks he got cold-busted in mid-stroke with one of the hoochies by another jock, who just happened to be female. nnnnnnnnnnnn-eway, homey got quite upset about it, and bitched about it on his last show. in a sense, he's kinda like a Black Howard Stern...whatever comes out, hey it is what it is.

well, ole boy had an interview down in the A-T-L for a spot on their hip-hop/r&b station, and was all psyched about it. okay then. ole boy went to Atlanta for the interview, and was told, "we'll call you." that right there was a sure sign he wasnt gonna get the gig. and, he didnt. homey dropped into a deep depression and had to take Zoloft to keep himself from totally going off the deep end. he took it for a while, but when he realized that Zoloft tends to zap the sex drive, he quit taking it. after all, he was quite the ladies' man *cough* and sex to him, was more important than breathing.

alrighty then. a couple of years passed, and he wound up doing a dusties (our Chi-town term for "oldies") show on a city college radio station. he wasnt getting paid for that, but i spose the faculty head thought he could give him a shot at being a teacher, in Radio Communications, of course.

now. i have known this cat since 1993. i even slipped, tripped and fell in love with him. we had mind-blowing sex, and yes, he is both blessed down below, and gifted with his tongue. i carried a torch for this cat from '93 to 2003, when i finally decided to accept that he wasnt feelin me the way i was feelin him. he has/had a girlfriend, but those two are like oil and water....they just dont mix well nor do they play well with each other.

now that he's entered middle age, he is not taking it well at all. like a spoiled brat, he wants his "glory days" back where he was a freak-of-the-week-sex-machine. ole boy has to take Viagra, which REALLY fucked up his understanding, hypertension meds and uh....nah, i wont go there. WAY too much information.

he works at Radio Shack now, and oh good gawd, you'd think somebody hauled off and bitch-slapped him -- god knows i was tempted -- he is HIGHLY pissed off to high pissivity about having to work there. when i saw him last, of course he was bitching about it, and i merely told him to just shut up, be glad you got a job at least and quitchabitchin'. *sigh*

then i mentioned that i liked the way he had his hair cut, and that the salt & pepper sprinkled thru his hair made him look "distinguished" oh gawd. what did i say that for? like a two-year old throwing a tantrum, he bellowed "DISTINGUISHED? I DONT WANNA LOOK DISTINGUISHED! I LOOK LIKE AN OLD MAN!" and wah wah wah wah. i said to him, uh, you want some cheese with that WHINE? dude....get over it. age happens. hushdefuck up. you dont hear me bitching about gettin older, and i got two years on you - muthafucka, i'll be 47 my next birthday, a'ight? so shut up and thank god you still can get up and move every day.

well, he still fussed and whined, and i just threw my hands up and said, "whatever"

so homey, it's your 45th year on this planet, and since y'all teased me about bein "an old, beat-up, warped, faded label 45" on my 45th b-day, well playa, it's your turn LOL

Happy birthday, dawg... i'll see you at your party tonite.

dark days

i was sitting here (as is my usual habit) at this computer and thinking back to the dark days when i was psychotic to the point my pdoc was gonna put me in the hospital. i also remember dark days when i had no money coming in and no food, save for 2 cans of cat food. i remember my youngest and i were so hungry that we wound up eating the cat food. my daughter didnt know it was cat food and i just couldnt bring myself to tell her, but we ate it (it was chicken chunks in gravy, and i dressed it up as best as i could with my own seasonings) and then the next day, of all people, Ms Homophobe helped me out with food from her own cupboard, which, despite our differences, was a blessing to me, and i cannot ever forget that. then she told me about food pantries in my neighborhood, and swallowing my shattered pride, i went to one of the churches in the neighborhood and they gave me a big bag of groceries -- with meat too, and i nearly cried with joy because at least we were gonna eat good that night. this was when my food stamps had been cut down to $10.00, and i was desperate.

i am thankful that some of those dark days are behind me. i'm not completely out of the woods, but i'm taking one step at a time and trying not to get overstressed in the process. i am learning that life will throw some curve balls at you, but you gotta be determined to not get knocked down and stay down, otherwise you'll get used to it and never escape from it.

i thank all of you who have posted comments or just stopped by this blog. your presence is very comforting during times like these, and i appreciate each and every one of you. if i missed someone, please forgive me, it was not intentional. just wanted to tell all of you -- THANK YOU.

miracles do happen

i got a wonderful surprise when i went to check my mailbox. i got a Christmas card from my sister in Pennsylvania and when i opened the card she had added a check for $25! now i know to some of y'all may say $25 aint much, but to me, it's like $2500 dollars for somebody as broke as i am right now. i'm gonna deposit this check into my $-14.00 overdrawn new checking account and hope that it will clear away that overdraft, and bring me into a positive balance of about $11.00.

i would have never expected that from my sister, and i am going to call her and thank her for her generosity.

i know some of y'all arent believers in God, but i know y'all know that miracles can happen when we least expect them, and to me, this was a wonderful miracle.

"on the last day of Christmas my true love gave to me....a lame ass Chia Pet and a Clapper for the TV...."

i have noticed a pattern here...when it's last-minute gift shopping all of a sudden the "Chia Pets" and "Clappers" start taking over the airwaves on television.

when the very first "Chia Pet" was introduced, it was cool. now? man! they got these lame ass Chia thingys with Chia Tweety (um, birds have FEATHERS, dummy!), Chia Guy (oh yeah there's a winner right there...to me he looks like an old funk musician with a green Jeri-Curl), Chia Sylvester (?), Chia Bugs Bunny (why..why...make 'em stop mommy, please make 'em stop waaaaaaaaa), i think, a Chia "Elmer Fudd" (be vewwy vewwy qwiet) and now we have Chia "Garfield" ad nauseam. just for shits 'n' giggles, how about making a "Chia Fruitcake"....i'm sure if one were to spread the Chia seeds on those indestructable bricks of crap (my apologies to those who actually LIKE fruitcake) , i honestly believe something would actually grow from it *shudders at the thought*

what i think would make this lame thing more interesting is if they added "chronic" seeds (stop playin' y'all know what i mean when i say "chronic") and spreaded that on one of those awful looking things...and i'm sure somebody out there is thinking the exact thing i just said *evil laugh bwahahahahahaha*

now we move on to the "Clapper" *sigh* it seems like it would be a handy gizmo when you dont feel like finding your remote to turn off the TV, or using it to come into a dark house. but what if you get a Clapper that doesnt, um "clap on" once you unlock your darkened home....or if you do happen to get one that ACTUALLY works, you decide to turn the TV off by "clapping off" and when you do, the TV blows out, and all your "clappable" appliances blow out too?

and why do they keep using the same old lady (i swear it's Barbara Bush *shhhhh*) in these commercials?

what if a person who has no hands, but instead they have "bionic"hands, and they receive one of these as a gift...will all the circuitry blow their prostheses off -- or worse, their "bionic" hands start "clapping" out of control?

i have a warped sense of humor, but i'm actually curious about these things.....what about y'all?
