Can Somebody Buy Me These?

My Lover made these...

His name is Christian. Christian Louboutin...

For anyone wanting to but me these please do inquire about the shipping address!

Stanks!

You look like a horse!

Ahahahahaaaa!

I hope the designer of these shoes wasn't serious when he made these and put his name on it! (Psssst... his name is Rick... Rick Owens! You clown, you!)

He must think women look like horses to wanna make their feet look like a Clydesdale's!

Honestly, they would've been fine without the black sheet! Right?

Let's do a little experiment to see if he was on the right track... Ahahahaaaa...

Parental Advisory: This post may contain content that may not be suitable for a young'n's eyes. If they see this while you're looking, don't you blame me!

Mmmkay...

As we were saying... the experiment! Ahhh, yes!

And we shall continue...

Here it is...

LOL! We gotta keep it classy up in here!

And for those of you who think I'm hatin', that is sooo not the case!

To each it's own!

Lol!

"Turn the Lights Out and Listen Tuesday"- MGMT- Electric Feel

How do I love thee?
Let me count the ways...
MGMT is definitely on that good ish! I call it The Good Ship, Lollipop! Well, that's the only explanation I could come up with! I really love the feel that this record gives me... it's just something kind of smooth. It's quite the random thing, too! Those characters from Chuck E Cheese were playing the instruments! Watch it! You'll see!

Appreciate this video by itself for the simple fact someone actually dug deep into their imagination to produce such a unique style of video to compliment this track. Brilliant!

I should've been up in this video with Adel Abouelala! Yo, that would've been crazy! You need us to stand there doing random things?! Done! Yeeeeeah...

This track is far from the noise you hear on the radio... I guess the radio doesn't like good music most of the time. Humph!

Do enjoy!

Now, get it on your iPod... You're welcome!

illMonic presents MGMT!

Sundays are for Writing!

See you tomorrow, darlings! :0)

Fierce & Fun Fashion Friday: Do We Not Love This?

I mean, really...

How sexy is this bathing suit?!

REALLY SEXY!
Although, Christian Dior came out with this piece back in February 2009, let me tell you that I'd rock this joint every dag on summer without shame! And you know what? I'd pose just like this on the beach with that same bracelet and pair of sunglasses! Trust, I will not even care who looks at me funny like, what the "f" is that girl doing?! Whatever, dude, I'm sexy! Don't even hate!

You know, looking at this, it's not very much going on as far as the details, but it's just the right amount of a little bit that did the trick. Hmmm... I wonder what the back looks like. I hope it's not a thong... Nah, I don't think they'd do that to this nice piece of brilliance...

My rating? 3 snaps in a mutha f-ing circle!

Get it!

It's the Fonz! Fonzworth Bentley, that Is!!!

Whaaaat?! When did Fonzy come back out with another album? I mean, where have I been?! Wherrre?! Yo, I'm diggin' this record of his- featuring Mr. Anthony Hamilton!
It's a bit banal compared to what we expect and know of him to but he's on point with this one here! Just a little bit of sugar is nice! Yeah, he's still dressed to impress and I must say that I dooo love his style! Quite weird that he started off as Diddy's umbrella boy, but hey! You get it boy! This is one smooth track right here! Welcome to my iPod, Fonzy!

Introduciiiiiiiing... JADE!

This is my oldest niece, Jade!

This little girl cracks me up!

Just thought that I'd post it because I was completely tickled by her...

Watch the way she runs out like it was an emergency! Ahahahahaaaa!

Sorry for the briefness of this post, she gave me quite the long list for my new job as the Clean-up Crew! Lol!

Love you, my little sugar muffin!

Turn the Lights Out and Listen Tuesday: Maze and Frankie Beverly- Happy Feelin's

This is one record I could ne-verrr get tired of. If you want a classic, this is definitely one that never loses it's groove. I love it when musical geniuses find each other and create such bliss to my ears! I could hug this record! Awwwh! Couldn't you? I could! Right? I know!

Vibin'.

This track right here is smoooooth and promotes much of what we need with all that's happening in the world right now. Just for a moment, let's throw it all to the wind, baby! Forget about that article due, classes tomorrow, forget about work! Get you a nice glass of _____- whatever your poison... Dim the lights... get your man or lady and enjoy yourselves. Or who even cares if you dance by yourself?! That's normal- I know I do it!

Vibe... oooooh, that's nice, right?

Yessss...

Yessss...

I know...

You're welcome.

Get it!

Beware! Lock Your Car Doors! Dummy on the Loose!

So, as very few of you may be aware, after a 2 year hiatus, I flew back to my old lover, New York, to visit my sister and her family for a few days last week.

On the first day that I arrived, I took my sister's car and went to get a few things from Shop Rite with my mother. All done. As we began to walk to the car, my mother remembered that she needed to go to Money Gram (which was in Cigar Aficion). We went. As we exited, she decided that she wanted to walk to the shoe store. We went. Afterwards, I remembered that I needed to go to 99cents City (which was really disappointing because it was no longer a city filled with just 99cent items- it was filled with items costing 99cents + $2, $3, $4 and $5!!! What the heezy?! Then it should no longer be called 99cents City! It should be called 199cents City! Or how about 299cents City?! How about that?!)

Pety letter to the owner:

Dear 99cents City,

How could you deceive me this way?! HOW?! LIARRRRRR! Oh, and you suck!

-illmonic

Anywaaaaaays...

My mom said, "You go and I'll bring the car over!"

I said, "Mmmkay!"

I paid for the stuff and my mother and I started to walk back to the car.

DUN! DUN! DUNNNNNNN!

This is where it gets crazy!

Mmmkay...

Background Information:

My sister just got a new car- it's pretty cool. I like it! But, for some reason, (sorry Jesca! Love youuu!) she always has something on her floor! ALLLLLLLLways!

Ahahahahahahhaaaaa!

That's funny!

Today, or that day, rather, it was a newspaper.

Moving on...

We start walking back to the car and I approached the passenger side. My mom walked around the back. I opened the door, hopped in and I was deeply touched! I saw that my mother removed the newspaper from the floor when she moved the car. I don't know how she could've seen it from the driver's seat, but yeah! Awwwwh!

But, wait... where in the H-E double hockey sticks did that pink jacket come from?!

And wth put these seat covers on the chairs?!

Who the heck's carrr is dis?!

OMG!

I DON'T KNOW!

GET OUT! Shut the door! I said to myself as I tried to escape from the UNcrime I had just committed! And this is New York! Whaaaat?! OMG! Somebody is going to see me! Oh, sugar and spice! RUNNNNNNNN, GIRL! RUNNNNNNNNNNN!

But, I had on some flip flops! I can't look cute running in some flip flops! C'mon son! Luckily, I saw this kid that had on some Jordan's and I said, "Son, can I borrow your Jordan's?"

He gave me the look. That let me know to keep it movin'...

I did!

I skedaddled my happy little self all the way up to my mother who was looking at me like Iiiiiii was the crazy one!

Apparently, she walked around the car I had gotten into and back to my sister's car!

Ahahahahahahahahahaaaaaa!

Oh, that wasn't her car?! Oooops! My bad!

Next time lock your car lady! I could've taken that pink jacket!

Ahahahahahaaha!!!

The End.

I'm not ashamed of myself.

A day in the life of Monic'... You're welcome! :0)

DISCLAIMER: A very small part of this post was, in fact, fabricated. But, I could've asked a kid to borrow his Jordan's... except for the simple yet, very real fact that I don't wear sneakers.

Ahhh, well!

Get it!

Sundays are for Writing!

See you tomorrow, my darlings... :0)

I have fans?! Whaaaat?!

So, I must admit that I didn't know so many people actually read my blog! Not many of them have subscribed but, I cannot tell you just how many people have inquired about my MIA blog posts! Golly, geeee whiz! Shucks, ya'll I didn't know! I have been thinking that it may be pointless because hardly anyone reads my pieces. So, I guess that's one of the reasons I haven't posted. Truly, I thought just a few close friends that paid attention, but, yo! I have so many people that read! They haven't subscribed (hint-hint!) as of yet, but, yes! I have people that read! Wowza! Allow me to apologize for the delay... I am now back in full swing!

Thank you all for reading and nagging me!

Sincerely, it means the world to me!

I love you! ( Insert big cheese smile here)

Are you kidding me?! Oh... you're not? Ooops! Sorry... I didn't know you were serious!

So, this was featured in Japan's 2010 Fashion Womp, I mean Japan's 2010 Fashion Week by a fashion designer that shall remain nameless for the obvious reasons...

Introduuucing...

Innntroooduuucing...

Hmmm...

Well...

You, know I don't know what the heezy this is... maybe we can put on our thinking caps and try... I mean, really, really try to figure out what this is! Because I just don't know!

I'm mad and irritated now.

Thinking caps onnn!

Shooooop!

OMG...

Let's converse about this image for a few moments...

I guess she is going to keep smiling like that because she thinks she's cute...

Really?! Oh dear goodness...

Wakka-wakka...

Ahahahahaaaaa!

WHAT is dat on her head?!

I mean, what?!

I think somebody needs to go shopping for another thinking cap...

Fierce & Fun Fashion Friday: Do We Not Love This? (Double Feature)

OMG! Shut UP!
I could cry!
Yo, Christian Louboutin is one bad mutha!

He is a straight genius! You could tell by his website that he's on something we've never heard of! But, whatever it is... Keep sipping! Go check out his website! Pure entertainment and incredible style! I love him! I really do!

Fierce & Fun Fashion Friday: Do We Not Love This?

Awwwh! Look how cute this is!

Now, some of you might question me for cosigning on this one, but I find it to be quite fun even if she isn't fully dressed! But, who cares! You could walk around the house like this! Good going Patricia Van Der Vliet for mixing stripes with polka dots! Hey, I'm all for it! For the Sex in the City 2 release I wore a mix of print and stripes with black high heels! Loved it!

Now, don't get it twisted, mmmkay? I didn't say rock an outfit with two different types of plaid, mmmkay? THAT is a straight up fashion violation and you should be issued some kind of penalty for walking around looking like a dummy- just like those chicks that wear Uggs with short jeans skirts in the dead middle of Florida's Summer! ARE YOU CRAZY?! Huh?! Are you? Are you crazy?! Apparently, and the friend you're walking with doesn't really like you because they let you walk out the house looking like whodunnitandwhy! Did you not get the "It's 97 degrees outside today, so wear flip flops" memo?!

(Inhale... exhale...)

Anyway...

Moving on...

I love this... I would skip around the house in it, too!

Don't judge me!

GET IT!

Turn the Lights Out and Listen Tuesday DOUBLE FEATURE: Led Zeppelin (Original Version), Corinne Bailey Rae- Since I've Been Loving You

Everybody listen, up! Listen up, right nnnnnnnnow!!! If you ain't up on this record right here... I feel bad for you because you've been on punishment all of your life! I'm about to introduce to you or rekindle something special between the words of this here song and your ears, mmmkay?!



Corrine Bailey Rae (Cover)- Since I've Been Loving You

I am really not one big on covers, but she gets a lighter up on this one! I actually had the opportunity to see her perform this song live! Whoa! It was no joke! I mean it was intense! This particular performance wasn't as good as when I saw hear perform, but it's enough to have you guys appreciate it! Please listen and listen hard! This is a serious situation right here!
Get it, Corrine!

Sex and the City 2

First of all... it was great!

Not as amazing as the first but it was nothing less than what I expected.

It opened up with vocals stylings of Jay-Z and Alicia Keys' New Yorrrk which was of course suiting for the movie. What followed immediately after that was quite the shocker- Standford and Anthony got hitched!

Whaaaaaat?!

Yeah! Iiiiiiii knnnow!

Now, that made me gasp considering they hated each other's guts for yeeeeeears!

Then, of course it had it's hilarious moments...

sad moments...

and moments that made you pout your lip and moan, "awwwh."

For me, I've missed the drama, the fashion- I've missed the gals! But let's be honest- it was more fashion than anything else. It really felt like they were forcing everyone's story into the movie and somehow (although he made a brief appearance in the beginning of the movie) Steve was left in the dust. Lol! Not that he had anything crazy going on anyway!

I could be hard on this movie because I am, in fact, a die hard Sex and the City fan.

Perhaps, it's selfish of me to criteek this movie as much as possible because I'm sure this is the last run for the ladies. I wanted more! MORRRRRRRRRRE!

Ok...

So, let's get dirty...

Liza Minelli kills Beyonce's Put a Ring on it. I mean, she really held it down! Get it!

Aiden pops up outta nowhere as the ladies take a trip to Abu Dhabi on a business trip, on behalf of Samantha Jones. What made me mad was the fact that Aiden kept picking Carrie up and spinning her around like he lost his sense! He knew she was married! Jerk! But allow me to point an index finger off of each hand- one at Aiden and the other at Carrie! Yes, the went out to dinner and yes they kissed! OMG! I know!

Ooops! Sorry for the spill...

Let's talk fashion...

Monic's Official Fashion Wishlist:

The breathtaking Christian Louboutin Sparkly gold heels.

Oh, yes... I do love my shoes... I could hug Mr. Louboutin for making these.

Excuse me while I cry...

I won't say too much, except for expect another update once everyone has seen the movie.

Fun Tool!

Turn the Lights Out and Listen Tuesday: Adele- Chasing Pavements

You know, the very first time I heard this song it was in the morning on VH1. It was one of the videos played by new artist, Adele... incredible. I would recommend turning the lights out once you've watched the video a few times. She hardly fits into the Old School Classics category I've been posting on Tuesdays, however, she is an artist with a stronger substance than most artists out today. I love her voice- the way it crackles a bit with her little accent. Awh! It's quite soulful, in fact, I literally drown in this track specifically because I can relate to the words and the feelings the gestures inflict in this video.

Oh, how I love the concept of this video... I could hug it! It's crazy because it shares with you the paradise experienced between the two lovers in the midst of disaster. Perhaps, it suggests the moments someone experiences before something incredibly terrible happens- "my life flashed before my eyes!" In this case, it seems their souls are the ones reflecting since their lives have already expired. Jeeez, truly I hope they (the lovers) were still basking in the happiness they lived after the were killed. But, wait! The deception! That cheating lint licker of a woman! She gives good women bad names!

In any case... this is a great song... get it on your iPod ASAP! AND! She has another track I love off of the same album entitled, 19, released in 2008. That's a must-have! Get it!

Enjoy!

Today was a Good Day!

Hilarity, took place today and I will work you into that part.

Today, while I was at work, I look up and there he was... ICE CUBE aka Oshea Jackson!

Oooh! What a nice name! Oshea... it just pronounces smooth like silk! Whooo! Oshea...

I looked at him in his face and all I could say was, "Oh, my God! Shut up!"

There was no doubt in my mind that I looked like a complete idiot to him- at least his face didn't show what he must have been thinking! Ha!

His demeanor is actually quite intimidating however, he's a smiler! A humble one at that!

Jackie- my coworker- I call him Jackie but his real name is Jack, was shaking his hand and Mr. Oshea... Oshea... Oshea... smiled so big and was happy to hear what Jackie had to say...

And his facial features are quite strong in person!

I didn't mind it...

There's a reason why I have most of his movies and know plenty of his songs...

People like that get far...

What's funny is that one of the guys in his party asked us how we were doing and Jackie said, "Great!"

And the guy replied, "Well, that's great! I guess today was a good day!"

All is could do was crack up like the dumb fool I am and say, "I like how you said that!"

Ha!

I'm tickled by his whole thing!

Yay!

Part Dalawa

(Dalawa means two in Tagalog aka a filipino dialect- Yeah, I just schooled you!)

I'm standing there next to my homie, Carlo and when I turn around, I see this woman who happens to be more beautiful in person and is awfully familiar! I move closer to her and stare harder to her face and say, "Oh! It's you!"

It was the wife and family of Terry Crews from the BET TV show The Family Crews.

I look at Carlo and he's bouncing his pecks up and down! Hahahahhahahaaaaa! I said to him, "Carlo, what the heck are you doing?!"
He said, "I was doing that way before her husband was!"
Ahahahhahaaaaaaa!
Ahhahahhaaaaa!
Can you believe he actually told her that while he was bouncing them up and down?!
Ahahahahahaaaa!
My friend Carlo...

I just want you to know that you are such a special friend to me!
Lol!
The end.
Aahahahaaaa!

DJ Kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiid Capri!

Word! So, today was pretty cool! I met DJ Kid Capri...

I remember him from Def Comedy Jam way back in the day and the radio growing up. And who could forget his trademark, "DJ Kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiid Capri?!"

Wow! It was a cool moment for me...

There he was...

I was like, "Oh snap! That's Kid Capri!"

Lol! I'm such a fool!
I thought to say, "hello!" because he is a Music Lover like me... we have something in common!

Word! That was hot!

Of course, I said the same dumb thing I always say when I see someone worth saying hello to-

"Is it you?!"

Oh, dear goodness... I guess that's what makes me one of a kind!

Never mind the fact that he had a DJ KID CAPRI sticker on his laptop as if that didn't give it away!

Who's a dork? You're probably thinking, Mo-ni-caaaa!

So! I don't care! I might even agree with you!

What's really cool is that he was so giddy- high on life even! He just kept smiling and was completely personable! I love that about humble people! What a nice guy!

For those of you that need a trip back down memory lane...

I give you...

Def Comedy Jam hosted by Martin Lawrence and DJ Kid Capri!

CLASSIC!

Can you believe this was 18 years ago?! Crazy!

The Official UNofficial Gemini Yearly Horoscope (May21~ June 20)

Otay, Gemini's... This is your Official UNofficial Yearly Horoscope, brought you by, yours truly... Me! Ow!

If you were born on an odd numbered day, ending in a three or a seven, you are stuck between two worlds- the good and the bad! That thing you've been doing... yeeeah... Bad! Apparently, normal Gemini's have no problem multitasking, but you, oh boy... let's just say Mama calls you her "special one." Mmmkay? What you need to do is quit bouncing back and forth, like you can handle it and keep it moving. If this seems quite difficult to you perhaps you should seek professional help. No! Not from me... another professional! If you don't you'll be waaay, I mean, like super waaay in over your head. Slacking on this advice could end you committing some type of crime or even worse... telling a lie! You don't want to lie to anybody do you?! I didn't think so! Make it happen Cap'n!

If your first name has an A or P...

HOLT!

Oh, sweet goodness! Why did they come out with ANOTHER Karate Kid?! Are you serious?! We have had enough of Daniel, son! Aight?! Be original, for Pete's sake!

Anyways... yeeeah...

Like I was saying before I was rudely startled by that nonsense commercial for another unoriginal flick...

If your first name has an A or P in it... You're fine. There's nothing wrong with you. BUT you do have a friend that really isn't your friend. It's most likely a two-faced chick but I can't put my finger on it at the moment. Keep an eye out. Oh, and play the lotto... Congratulations!

I'll Always Love My Mama!

And there she is... My Mama, back in the day... and me! Ow! <3

There's only one of her and I share her with not only with my Dad, my older sister, Jesca and younger brother, Jr., I am lucky enough to share her with anyone who needs a wonderful person like her in their life too! It's a funny thing looking back on all of those years growing up... Being mad at her for things she wouldn't let me have and mad again for the things she gave and I thought I didn't need... Doing things I really wish I didn't, thinking back... I guess SHE'S the one laughing now...

Ma, you don't have to say, "I told you so!"

I already know.

I know it must be hard for you mother's out there teaching your children things maybe you're not 100% sure about- so, you try your very best to guide in the right direction. You're only a mother to each of your children only once, individually, but equally at the same time. Ma, it's incredible how you extend your imagination, will, strength, courage and loving hands to everyone you know needing it. And be fair at the same time. I wish I could start over knowing I wanted to be just like you now, being aware that although my feet are waaaaaay bigger than yours, I have some major shoes to fill.

I want to thank you for doing your best even when I failed. And thank you for being there, like always when I did succeed. The world doesn't have arms big enough to hold a heart like yours. I'm grateful and blessed to know that I couldn't either, BUT I can hug you really tight. That's a start right? I'm grateful to GOD for believing that I do deserve to have a woman in my life like you... My Mother. :0) I wish I had more to give to show my appreciation for you doing such an amazing job... and most of all, being my Mom.

I LOVE YOU, MAMACITA!

This goes out to all the mother's out there... Happy Mother's Day!!!

A special shout out to my sister, Jesca, my Mom, my Grandma, my Lola, to all of you ladies I call "Auntie," Annie Bananie, Ms. Violet...

And Special, Special Shout Outs to Nazeg Abouelala and Karen Schuller (RIP). <3>

For your listening pleasure... I give you, The Intruders! :0)

Bad, Bad Jessica!

First of all, if I didn't brush my teeth at least twice a day, do you think I would admit to practicing bad hygiene on national TV? H to the E double hockey sticks nah!
That's just disgusting! Trust there is nothing in this world you can say to make me feel otherwise! Yuk, Jessica! Yuk!

Fast forward to 5:30 to see hear say it...

Call her Ms. Simpson if you're nasty...

I kid you not, I am going to brush my teeth while you watch this!
Ewwwh!

Fierce & Fun Fashion Friday: Do We Not Love This?

Thank goodness for a Keren and Georgina for establishing a brand like Marchesa!
These ladies mean business!
When I saw this my first reaction was, "Woooooooowwww!"
I don't know if your eyes see what I'm seeing, but this is definitely a garment that qualifies for a "Fierce and Fun" post! Ow!
From the Spring 2010 Collection, it looks like a huge flower with brilliant definition- breath taking!
It's a dress that was incredibly placed together with each piece playing it's own role. The colors are quite the elegant blend that establishes the true beauty of a woman... and it look goods, honey!

I took a look at the Marchesa website and I was overwhelmed with many of the garments- stunning! I would wear every single one of those pieces and feel like a million bucks... Bravo Ladies! Bravo!

Get it! Ow!

Oh, dear! There's a Pet Peeve on your Window!

This post is dadicated to my dear friend, Swan who also shares the "Mispelled Words Pet-Peave."

What I don't udnerstand is-

Why people keep posting sines at local businesses without aksing sumone, "hay, did I spell this werd ryte?" Butt, nothing in this entire worrrrrrrld erks me more then someone misspelling the word "Inconvenience!"

Whyyyyyy?!

Why musk everyone misspell this worde?!

People, explain yurselfs!

Dude, sound that joint out, mmmkay?!

Let's do it together...

IN-CON-VE-NI-ENCE!

INCONVENIENCE!

You sea?!

Was that hard?!

Now write it!

Have you any idear how bad this looks?

Have you?!

Have you iny idear?!

And P.S. it's flipping annoyeng!

Handle it!

Let's play a game called, How Many Errors are in this Post?

Answer:

Now, it's time to call them out...

Oh, dear goodness...

I don't even know what this person was thinking when they started to spell this word! Sound it out! Use yourrr vowels, honey!

Poor Walgreen's... What's funny about this is that it looks like there could've been a possibility that they misspelled the word wrong previously, cut that line off and then attached another line, with what?! A misspelled inconvenience! Arrrrrrgh!

What can you proscribe for the headache you just gave me reading this?!

Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds... Sippin' Cognac

Awwwh!

So, as many of you may know (or not), my bf engaged me on Thursday! Ow!

(Sigh)

I cannot explain to you the excitement that is flowing through my veins! It was truly an experience I will never forget! He's a great guy- one like I've never met. :0) Awh!

I am not going to sit here and share the private details, but I will, however let you see what she looks like.

She is definitely one of a kind... I named her, Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds. She's a Cognac colored diamond. Boy, is she unique... She is definitely me! :0)

I have a beautiful life ahead of me! (smiley face)

Yikes!

Pardon me, people!

I know it's been a lil bit since I've posted something, but let me explain!

I have been quite occupied with the great things in life- not to say that you're not important!

Many amazing things have been coming my way and it has been quite a handful!

I am working on somethings to post for you and will be right back on it with a load for you to catch up on by this Thursday!

I hope you can hold on till then!

Kisses!

Well, hellooo, Mr. Presidents!

I saw this on msn.com.

Personally, I thought it was quite simple of the person who decided that it was necessary to alter the faces of our currency and Founding Fathers... It could have a baboon hugging a tree on a sweet Sunday afternoon, for all we care! It's cash money! There's nothing more required to appeal to us! Derrr!

My first response to seeing this? "Wow! Are you kidding me, right now? Are you really serious, right now?"

This says quite a bit about society, doesn't it?

Not only does it say you need to be skinny to be healthy, being beautiful will get you places further than your intellect will (but don't you forget your degree because we will deduct points from your final worth), but it subliminally presents ideas of what they believe "beauty" really is, in some of the most sneaky places! We see it everyday (or most days, anyways). We touch it! Flip it! Rub it down... Oh, nooooooo! Who would've thought to see such nonsense, here? Surely not me, but it doesn't surprise me one tid bit!

Don't play games with my money, honey!

I won't lie though, they are more attractive having had their paper surgery, but I am also not implicating in any form that there was something wrong with them before!

I feel it's petty and irritating!

Please tell me what you think of this...

Happy Birthday to Me!!! Ow!

So, as many of you may know, today was, in fact the birthday!

Sexytwenty7 (written and pronounced, just like dat!) Ow! Ow! Ow! Owwwwwrrrrrrrrow!

I was supposed to work today, but a kind friend, Nadia- who shares 4/20 as a birthdate, suggested I take off. And it was done!

It started off with my Mass Media Final... I'm kind of a genius. :0) What! What!

Afterwards, I went to pick up my niece, Leiara and we did go shopping! Ow!

Boyyy, lemme tell you how TIRED a sista like me is right now!

I decided to hang out with my niece all day long and to tell you the truth, I could've completed a triathlon and still had energy! I though I was a hand full! Whaaaaat! I ain't got nothing ( I know it's a double negative, but let's not get all bougie about it! I'm fittin' to tell you something!) on her! No-thiiiiiing! Lol!

"Mmmkay, well, what had happened was..." #1:

So, I have no shame, right about now.

I'm calling myself out!

Before we hit the Florida Mall, I was taking her out of her car seat and decided, hmmm... I shall change the diaper! Dunnn, nah, nahhhhh!

I put a jacket down to protect the leather seats and I went in. She had a flippin' Pull-Ups diaper on! Ok?! I wasn't trainnnnnnnned on how to remove this contraption! Arrrrright?! Why don't they put frickin' arrows to show you that the sides detach?! Huh?! I'm going to write a letter of complaint! Yo, I messed up my jacket, her shirt, and I waisted about 20 wet wipes! I was sweating profusely! Profusely, I tell you! PROFUSELY! And you KNOW I hate sweating! It took me near 10 minutes to change her diaper and get her presentable before I could even get her into the stroller! What the heck?! Oh, dear goodness (placing the back of my hand to my forehead)! Are you judging me?! Don't judge me!

Moving on...

I found it to be fun that everyone kept saying, "Ya'll have such big hair!" Lol! Well, thank you! I try and it comes naturally to her! :0)

I picked up a Sexy Mama dress that I will sashay in, right down the sidewalk and straight into Texas De Brazil with a group of old friends and new pals, on Thursday. Oh! Did I mention that my little-big bro bought it for me? Awwwh! I know! That was sweet of him, right? That's my brother! Ow! Hi5!

"Mmmkay, well, what had happened was..." #2:

So, after we finished eating at the food court I decided again... the diaper! We headed to the family restroom. This time I knew to rip the sides off instead of trying to pull it off like a regular underwear. Throw it in the bag! Or garbage, rather! Ow!

I decided I wasn't going to place her directly on that table thinkymabobber for the kids. I went and grabbed a butt-load of those tissue cover thingymajobbers that go on the toilet when you have to do a no. 2 and laid them all out on the table thingymabobber, so her skin wouldn't touch it.

And thennn... oh, sweet goodness...

She started crying so loud and hard!

I was shocked!

I turned to her and started asking what I did wrong!

She cried to me, "Auntie! I don't want to go to the doctor! Ahhhhhhhhh! Ahhhhhhhhhh!"

Poor girl. I messed her up for life!

Lord knows I gave it my all today... I truly really did. I'm not perfect. Just human.

I took a picture of us at the food court and oooooooh, WEEEE! That picture will never surface! OK?! We both look like we been through it. But truth be told, it was an experience to remember. I spent the entire day with my niece and that was a beautiful gift all it's own.

I'm blessed to have seen the light this morning.

I'm blessed to be loved and even more to have the ability and understanding to love someone else.

I love my life and I wouldn't trade it for the North Star.

Life is beautiful. Thank God. <3

Why Do Your Feet Smell Like Dat?!

Heaven forbid someone rolling through with these shoes on their feet!

Oh, dear goodness!

I couldn't imagine the level of rancid smell that would overcome us!

I am actually going to go wash my feet right now just because I feel like the picture of this footwear could, in fact, stink!!

Who in the eff would create such a hideous shoe?!

Someone please go find out and call them out!

I just got a headache!

Oh, my goodness...

Oh!

"Turn the Lights Out and Listen Tuesday"- The Delfonics- Hey Love

People taaaaalk... about youuuuuuu!



They didn't lie when they said nothing is new! I have always been a fan of the classics, thanks to my dear daddy-o! I appreciate good music that makes you feels good. It presents substance, unlike a lot of music today. Since music isn't what it used to be and some people just don't know what a true classic is... allow me to school you! This is just one of the many classics I will be posting during the course of our brand new relationship.
Now, let me state for the record, I am a singer. I am good at it, too! However, I feel that if I do put out more music, it has to be a classic or else I'm just another chick on the radio or iPod making sounds with my mouth. Honestly, I am not in the right state of mind to complete such a task. There's something about being "caught in a moment" and being "timeless" that challenges me. Mentally, I'm an investor. Let me present you a product that will last a lifetime. Sometimes, it happens over night. Sometimes it takes years. That's real talk.

It used to be that the talent is what entertained. These gentlemen have not lost their place in time...

I give you, the brilliant stylings of The Delfonics!

Do enjoy!

What Ya'll Know About a... Superrr Model?!

Get it girls! Owww!

I don't care what anybody has to say about a plus sized woman modeling! All I know is that these gals here, are killing it! Just because you're not a double zero doesn't mean you don't look good! It's society that puts these silly ideas into our heads that we need to be skinny to look good! Ironically, they say it's ok to keep building a Mickey D's every half a mile! Pah-leeeeeeeees! Let me tell you, honey... Ain't nothing sexy about seeing your veins mashing into your bones because they have no other place to go!

Now, I'm not saying be obese! No, sir-reee, Bob! That's not healthy! Mmmkay? You can be healthy and thick at the same time.

Be who you are and love it! If you don't, nobody else will! And I KNOW that's right, honey!

If you're thick... get it and look good in it! Work it! Cover girl! Do... ya... thang!

Nobody likes Bobby the Slob!

For the readers out there that have it in your heads... Quit it! I'm on it and I call the outfit on the right! Whaaaaaat?! Big hair and theme music please!

Three snaps in a mutha flippin' circle! Let's gooo!

Ow!

Heeeeeere's Johnny! Cupcakes, that is!

Mmmkay...

So, like I mentioned in my very second blog, I met Johnny Cupcakes in the Orlando International Airport...

Feel free to take a gander and catch up to speed! :0)

http://illmonic.blogspot.com/2010/03/who-doesnt-like-cupcakes.html

Currently, J-Cup is having his Back to Basics Suitcase Tour, flying around the US selling his shirts just like he used to- straight out of Compton! Excuse me... I meant straight out of his suitcases! Last night, he was in Orlando, FL at the Bold Hype Art Gallery.

Man, oh man! By the time Pierre and I arrived it was about nine something and the line was wrapped around and 'round. I, of course, was trying act like heels don't hurt when you stand in them for four hours straight and went in like a fashion soldier!

I must say that I've never waited on line for anything- to include a Playstation or Jordan's. This was truly a unique experience. I could only imagine how he (J-Cup) feels knowing people would actually stand outside this long to say, "chelloooo!" take a picture and buy a t-shirt. Whooo-weee! But, we did!

I'm sure it was quite inspiring for Pierre because he is currently pursuing fashion design- his brand is coming along quite lovely. >>>Keep an eye out, I'll be posting about his line soon-LMG. I'm glad I was there with him. He's a fun guy! :0)

OMG! Shut up!

Mmmkay, lemme tell you...

We're standing there and this dude pulls up in his scooter and behold! It has a spare tire! I thought it was just the most darling thing! I was literally so tickled, I had to take a photo!

It's cute right? Don't you just want to pinch it?! Ha!

Back to what I was saying...

Uhhhh...

So, we finally get to the front of the line and there he is... Johnny Cupcakes! Yay!

He didn't recognize me at first because I had on my "cool-gal glasses."

I said, "Remember me from the airport? I said I was going to bring him!"

He said, "Oh, yesss! Thanks for helping me!" <<--- This statement has been revised for certain reasons. ;0) I got you Johnny!

It's quite funny because he remembered exactly what I said to him at the airport! Hi5, Johnny!

Recap: I said, "Are you him?" I'm such a dork!

He then goes to one of his fashion designers and told him, "This is the girl I was talking about!" and introduced us! Awwwh!

And then you know what he did next?

No?

He gave me the biggest hug! :0) Awwwh!

Pierre was excited to converse. Johnny was interested.

We took pictures and this time I can show you!

He made a funny face again!

I'm such a diva, that the first pic turned into a do-over! Ha!

He's still a nice guy... with a great memory!

P.S. Check out his story... It's incredible!

I enjoyed myself! Ow!
