Going Away

Categories: celebrations, change, death, friends, future gazing

I’m going to a LOT of these parties lately. In the last few weeks I’ve gone to 2 and I have 3 more coming up in the next 2 weeks. Florida. South Carolina. Georgia. Oklahoma. Everyone is leaving. It’s a mass exodus for various reasons. School. Money. Opportunity. Peace of Mind. Fleeing from the rigors … Read More

Ressurrection

I feel like I’m back from the dead. I have time to myself now. Maybe even time to finish my many awaiting projects… clean my room… start going to the gym again. EVEN TIME TO SLEEP… which is most awesome of all. That dreaded project I’d been working on for 5 weeks has successfully completed … Read More

A March Snow       In Memoriam of my Soror Aiyana. So sad because you were much too young to pass so soon, but I’m so glad that you passed by me during your stay. It was a pleasure knowing you… I hope to see you again soon. Rest in peace. *

For Granted

Categories: death, figuring it out, thinking too much

We do take a lot of things for granted in life. Things that other people would kill to have… we have at our disposal and don’t have much regard for. Tonight, my baby called me and told me that an associate of his committed suicide last night. He was 82. How do you get to … Read More

Superman is Dead

Categories: bad day, death, media

It’s not too strange to think that’s what he’ll be remembered as. He was the Superman of my time. Seeing him on the screen made me think… “I wish there was someone like that on the Earth who was that concerned about people’s safety and well being.” Made me a little sad, so young, that … Read More

We Know Not The Day Nor The Hour

Categories: bad day, death, friends

I woke up this morning with the intention of sitting down and writing out the bizzare dreams that I had running through my mind last night. But reality struck that down in the face of death. As I opened up my new.blogger.com window, my cell phone rang. I saw it was one of my Sorors. … Read More

September 11th

Categories: death, family, figuring it out, media, music, news and politic

I woke up this morning to the constant pounding and hammering next door. The vastness and emptiness of that apartment magnified every slam, footstep and sliding. Just another reminder that the neighbors next door are gone. Mad that they couldn’t start at 10:00AM or maybe do it during the week when I would have normally … Read More

Rememberance

I had a moment this morning while I was getting ready for work that I felt I should blog. I don’t believe I have any recollection of this man on paper in my files, but I’ll go ahead and put it down now. I remember getting ready to graduate from college and I got a … Read More

Life

Categories: death, growing, reminiscing

The last few days have been strange with their twist of life, happiness, love, contentment, sadness and death. Work has been unusually difficult for me to get my mind through. Although, I always say it’s unusual. But I manage to find a way through it. But my brain is muddling through it all. I got … Read More
