Encounters

Have you ever had a run-in with racism?

I was called a nigger on the playground when I was 8.

That's my story.

I love getting to know...ME

One major thing I learned about myself is that my memory SUCKS. I'll forget a name, date, ect within an hour. But I remember the colors, the smells, the tastes, the feeling that I have. I have always tried to communicate how much of a sensual person I am. Most confuse this for sexual. Like all the paintings I saw while in Madrid, the few that I fell in love with made me feel something, evoked an emotional response. I saw texture in the paintings, placed myself in the paintings.

Even when talking to the guys I date, I have a LOT of trouble feeling a connection if he doesn't show any vulnerability.


ANGELA BASSET + ER = I'll be watching it religiously this year.

Sorry Folks...but it was funny. #27 - That One



On another tmi note...got dayum why on the one rainy day does mother nature have to deliver me a punch to the stomach and head? C'mon...Mercy please.

Right?

Because life is so simple, right? And our judgments on other people's situations are always correct, right? Everything is so cut and dry, right? It's productive and healthy to muse over situations in which you aren't a player, right?

I guess so.

What are you doing on November 5th?

I will probably take a personal day. However, if I go in to work...

if Obama wins, I'm wearing all white. It's a celebration. When 'we' protest, we wear black. This would be a true American victory.

if McCain wins, I should probably stay home to prevent myself from getting fired for saying something ignorant. I'll wear black an mourn.

BTW - My Company is being Green and allowing us 1 day per week to work from home. Not good for my productivity. But I do have a mighty fine headache, so it's probably good that I'm not amongst the masses.

Go Biden

You can't be a Maverick when all you've ever been is a sidekick.

Don't be confused...

On CNN the group of undecided voters were constantly monitored for their reaction to Obama and McCain during the debate. What we found was that in general the collective group subconsciously responded more favorably to Obama than McCain.

However when Soledad asked who folks were learning toward, over half the crowd said McCain.

Did you see the demographics of those who rose their hand? White males.

Read up on The Bradley (Wilder) Effect

The absolute most offensive part of the debate was..."I betcha you never heard of them before this crisis."



A seemingly educated black man doesn't know what Frannie and Freddie Mac are? GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE WITH THAT BULLSHIT.

You know what I never heard about before this crisis? Sarah Palin.

My Sarah Palin Moment

Sarah Palin is to Foreign Policy as I am to Initiating Reconciliation.

A former friend's birthday is this week. I purchased a Maya Angelou Hallmark Card. I am attempting to put words on the paper...but my thoughts are as fragmented as Palin's response in a Katie Couric Interview. Hell, the next difficult will actually be dropping that bad boy in the mail.

My incoherence has me referencing quotes to capture the words that I'm either at a loss for or too prideful to write on the card. Essentially, my thoughts come out as such, "Well, um I don't know how to open up and I don't want to assign the responsibility of forgiveness to either of us. I'm not even sure that forgiveness is the word that I should use. But our friendship ended so abruptly over childish bullshit. I've never been one to enjoy having numerous superficial, forced friendships. What we shared was deeper, but it was set in the context of numerous superficial forced friendships. So erruhhh Let us always meet each other with smile, for the smile is the beginning of love. And thereofre the umbrella of, "If you want a love message to be heard, it has got to be sent out. To keep a lamp burning, we have to keep putting oil in it. And ALSO, Grief and tragedy and hatred are only for a time. Goodness, remembrance and love have no end."

Lol, see sounds just like Palin trying to put together an intelligent thought. Eek. Then I selfishly wonder, will my efforts to reach out be well received? I'm not looking to be thrusted back into that lifestyle...the incessant talk about sex, failed relationships, drinking and constant socializing with people I didn't fancy. But I miss the simplistic connection that I had with one particular person. It's kinda like...you like toothpaste and you like orange juice...but not necessarily together.

Errr - perhaps I'm still suffering from Jet Lag, or perhaps my mental faculty is on par with my Wii fitness age of 80. I'm rambling and not looking forward to returning to work after traveling overseas.
