Ain’t Life A Niche…
Overzealous, overconfident, overactive, and today.....over reaching. I'm the biggest advocate of stepping out of the box, breaking away from the norm and doing or being different. That said, we each have our own roles to play in life. Our own talents, our own gifts. Our very own little niche. I know, (as much as I … Continue reading Ain’t Life A Niche…
Anatomy 101
I had a bit of an epiphany in the gym this morning. It dawned on me that most people go their entire lives without realizing what their very own bodies are physically capable of. I've been at this for awhile now. 25+ years. It's funny to me. Mainly because in my youth, I was skinny. … Continue reading Anatomy 101
Resolute Ideas
2010 is over. Thank God. It's been a rollercoaster ride from hell, from natural disasters to the ongoing ever present recession, things have not been nice (putting it mildly). Nevertheless tonight, err....tomorrow begins a new year, new beginnings, new chances, new opportunities and for a lot a people, new resolutions. I can tell my age … Continue reading Resolute Ideas
Bittersweet November
Well now....I think I'm most certainly convinced without a shadow of doubt that our country is nowhere near being out of the "recession" and things are steadily declining. Why?

Got Snacks?
Does anyone eat for sustenance anymore? I mean c'mon, isn't food meant to be eaten to survive? Not anymore...if it ain't smothered covered chopped scattered topped and peppered it ain't right.
Garlic crabs in a barrel
It's hard enough to deal with hidden agendas and the proverbial knife in the back, but when you're forced to endure the "crabs in the barrel" attitude from your own people, it really stops you in your tracks and makes you take a hard look at society, culture and regional environments....or maybe, that's just me.
10 things your mother forgot to tell you
Mothers often pass down unwritten rules to their daughters to prep them for the real world. To you ladies that missed out and/or didn't listen, this is for you.
More Cushion for the Pushing?
Any other day, I'd bypass this subject and wouldn't think twice about. I'm sitting at home sick as a dog, channel surfing. I see the Tyra Banks Show(damn, she is still fine!) about women loving men with big bellies. And then the subject was broached on Facebook. So I have to ask ladies...REALLY?
Mid-Life Madness
In less than 12 hours I'll age another year, and yet I am completely unfazed. All the rhetoric surrounding birthdays is designed to do what exactly? The cakes, the parties, the sheer drunkeness (if that's your kind of thing) is supposed to be a celebration of life? Or...is all the fanfare and festivities just a mere distraction from what you should be doing. Self evaluation. a gut check. I like to think of birthdays as milestone markers where I take out my compass and see what direction in life I'm headed in.
