What's Sexy About Your Name



You are sexy because you are very dreamy. You are often lost in a lush fantasy.

You are a sincere and devoted partner. You are attracted to troubled souls.



You will do anything for the person you love, and in the bedroom, you aim to please.

Once you fall for someone, you're hooked. You give all of yourself to make the relationship work.



Of all the types, you're the most likely to have a secret fantasy life.

And for you, your fantasy life can be more real than your actual life at times.

Saturday morning

I woke up this morning at 7:15 to prepare for my tub to be re-glazed (resurfaced). They arrived about 8:30, and shortly there after I was informed there would be an additional cost for stripping..............woo's me and my pockets. They were already here so I agreed and they commenced with services.

I even got my homework done! So I can continue with my weekend knowing one of my major tasks for the weekend is completed.

As soon as they are done I can hit the outlets and commence with the rest of my weekend.

Hope you are having a good Saturday!

Weekend plans…..

I called and got a confirmation that my tub will indeed be re-glazed tomorrow morning……..so my Saturday morning will start at 7:30 am. I need to make sure we clean the bathroom tonight so that tomorrow it’s all good. I’ll tidy up the bedrooms also just in case.

Later on tomorrow I’m hitting Hagerstown Outlet for some shopping with friends. It’s about an hour and a half drive for me, so I’ll get my riding music ready tonight.

The stores I plan to hit include:

Bass
Adidas, Nike, Puma – I would like a new pair of sneakers
Kasper – I’m still trying to find a blue suit
Levis – I really need a new jean jacket
Nine West – can’t not go into this store…..although I just got my shipment from 6pm of two pairs of shoes and a pair of boots……
Perfumania – can never have enough smell good, although I really should jot down what I want

I’m not gonna go into Coach, not sure if I can go in and not make a purchase. I just got a new Cole Haan purse.

Then we’ll head back to my friends house for a night of drinking and girl talk…..LOL Sunday we’ll probably find a Waffle house or Cracker barrel for breakfast and then head on back this way.

I guess I’ll have to fit doing my homework in either tonight, tomorrow while they are doing the tub or Sunday when I get back. Of course it’s due Sunday by midnight…..LOL
Hope you have a great weekend!

I Dislike riding Metro: Thursday 13 - 9th edition

If you live in or near the Washington DC area or visited the area, chances are you've taken a ride on the subway. This week My Thursday Thirteen relates to my dislikes about riding the subway here in DC. Sure it's cool for weekend travel in and around DC. But daily commuting has it's draw backs and here are mine issues with riding on a daily basis:

  1. smells
  2. rowdy school kids
  3. cost of parking
  4. nasty patrons - people cough and or sneeze and don't cover their mouth/nose
  5. national fans
  6. tourists
  7. rude patrons - loud music even with earphones
  8. jerky train ride
  9. "brief delays"
  10. inconsiderate patrons - don't want anyone sitting beside them
  11. frequent train/track malfunctions
  12. uncooperative patrons - don't want to move further into the train preferring to stand by the doors which sometimes hinders others from getting on and off the train
  13. inconsiderate parking patrons - parking in 1.5 space or parking too close to already parked cars making it a feat for people to get in their cars

You Are 44% Interesting



Truth be told, you're not the most interesting person in the world.

You don't put much effort into expanding your horizons. You're content to stay in your little comfort zone.



You tend to get stuck in a rut, and you often bore people who spend time with you.

You are predictable and somewhat narcissistic. You're too focused on yourself to see how boring you can be.



You have the potential to be an incredibly fascinating person. You just have to be a little more proactive.

Shake things up. Try something new. Take a risk. The worst that can happen is that you'll have an amazing story to tell!

Kept

I Am a "Kept" Woman?


You see, there were a few times when I thought I would lose my mind,

But GOD kept me sane. (Isa. 26:3)

There were times when I thought I could go no longer,

But the LORD kept me moving. (Gen 28:15)

At times, I've wanted to lash out at those whom I felt had done me wrong,

But the LORD kept my mouth shut. (Psa. 13)

Sometimes, I think the money just isn't enough,

But GOD has helped me to keep the lights on, the water on, the car paid, the house paid, etc.., (Matt. 6:25 -34)

When I thought I would fall, HE kept me up.

When I thought I was weak, HE kept me strong!
(I Pet. 5:7, Matt. 11:28-30)

I could go on and on and on, but I'm sure you hear me!

I'm blessed to be "kept."

Damn Financial Industry!

I’m still undecided and have yet to make a decision as to what to do with my 401k from my previous employer. Right now it’s just sitting there. And I’m afraid that I’m potentially losing money by doing nothing.

And what has prompted my attention back to my 401k is BOA’s recent purchase of Merrill Lynch. I’ve always said there are two companies I don’t want to get in bed with: Bank of America and Capital One. Please don’t ask, as I’m afraid I can’t remember my exact rationale behind the decisions. But it’s beginning to look like I’ll have to reconsider those very same declarations.

I’ll soon sleep with Bank of America since my current employer’s 401k is with Merrill Lynch who was just purchased for a mere 50 billion by BOA. And a more personal matter might require my limping on over to Capital One.

Damn, gotta get a move on getting some personal affairs in order!

*update*
I forgot BOA purchased Countrywide....so I'm already connected to BOA....damn!

That Heffa

I decided to make it a quick lunch and hit up the Cosi for a Cesar salad no crotons, I had to wait in a long azz line. But it’s all good cause it’s lunch time and that how it goes. So its finally my turn to place my order and the young man took my order no problem, but the young lady who just puts the dressing on and mixes looked at my salad as if it’s foreign……….WTF is wrong with her?

So I get my salad and head to the register to pay, well guess what……the cashier turns her nose up at my salad as well. So as the manager just so happens to approach, I tell her “You don’t have to turn you nose up at my food” to which she gives me the blank face……what the heck is it you don’t get. You should be able to read the writing on the top. So she goes on to ring my purchase and I gave her my coupon for $2 bucks off………yay me for clipping that coupon, my salad was on $4.72 as opposed to 6.72……anyway, when she gives me my change she leans in and apologizes for the comment and states that she didn’t mean anything by it, but my salad didn’t look like the usual salad…….heffa still mind your P’s and Q’s when dealing with people and their food.

She better hope I don’t feel like causing a commotion and writing a letter to corporate about this incident.

What’s for lunch?

Yesterday I had a baked potato with cheddar cheese and a bag of chips. No hot tea to wash it down this time. But what’s up for today? I didn’t bring my lunch in so I’m forced to find a meal elsewhere. I’m in the mood for a crab cake. But I don’t feel up to making the walk to the Chop House.

Or maybe a slice of pizza and some chips.
I have some minute rice in my drawer, I could pop that in the microwave. Some how it doesn’t sound appeasing.

I could have a salad from Cosi, but I’m trying to give up bread for at least two weeks. And I can’t have their salad without the bread.

What will I do? Maybe a popcorn and hot tea kinda day?
