Iron Chef Chesterfield
I'm currently laying in the bed fresh out the shower and watching a movie. This Christmas to be exact. J just finished the dishes and is yelling at me from the shower nonsense about how bad she's going to beat me in our next challenge.
Tonight we had an Iron Chef type challenge in my kitchen and well, I won. We've been debating who is the better cook and well, let me just say that I put my foot in the quick meal we had tonight.
Because we both seem to love watching the food network, we thought an Iron Chef type challenge would be fun.
Baked tilapia, loaded baked taters, corn, and some asparagus. She claimed to not like asparagus but her stomach seemed to vacuum it up lol. She made the same things minus the green monsters as she calls them, but in different ways.
I baked my tilapia with lemon pepper and lemon slices. She just baked hers with salt and pepper. I baked potatoes with sour cream, cheese, chives, butter, and bacon bits. She made baked potatoes. We both made our corn on the cob the same way, and then I made asparagus.
We made Christmas cookies together because she's not a baker. That was interesting. After we ate we came to the unanimous decision that she lost. And had to wash dishes. Sucks for her because they all didn't fit in my dishwasher.
It's safe to say she should stick to breakfast because ummm, well it wasn't that good. She did try though and I give her that. She pours a mean glass of wine too.
She's out the shower now, still fussing about losing. Told me to get off the computer, but she lost so I'm going to do what I want.
Anywho, it was fun. I laughed, a lot, which is something I'm trying to do more often. Well, I'm going to get back to my movie and my screamer. Looking forward to tomorrow.
Today was a good day.

It's Just How I Feel
Alright so, I have to say this because it's kind of annoying me. Don't get me wrong, I'm not losing sleep over this, but when I enter the blogging environment it annoys me.
I recently joined this blog circle and it has been really cool. It has increased the amount of bloggers in my blog roll. It has encouraged me to be more open with my readers as well, knowing that here no one judges. But I do have one concern.
The person that started this circle came on really strong. She seemed to know what she wanted to come out of this and was determined to get it. She wanted people to comment on each others blogs so that people would be encouraged when writing. So that they would know their words weren't falling on blind eyes so-to-speak.
There was a lack of participation on some folks parts and this seemed to get her upset. So, she let her voice be heard. You go girl!
Then, things picked up a little but fell back off, so she let her voice be heard again. She even removed a person and called others out. You go girl!
But as of late I have realized something. She doesn't practice what she preaches. Oh no girl!
Maybe I could be wrong, and she just doesn't visit my blog. Or comment on my blog. But, I don't really see much participation from her.
Her blogs kind of get me too because most of them are features. I don't really get to peek inside of her mind like I do everyone else. Maybe it's just me though. And if it is, well then. It is.
I don't know, I just feel as if you're going to request that the entire circle comment on each others posts that you should too. I understand that we all have lives but umm, don't push the issue if you're not going to let it push you.
That's all I'm saying.
Hmph, anyway... I'm going to continue to blog (because I have a need to) and comment on others blog, because it's what I committed to doing when I signed up.
Happy Blogging everyone!!!

4 Types of Huh? Say What? Wow...
I recently came across something that actually made a great deal of sense to me. It's odd how when you're having a conversation about something, something that pertains to it seems to just fall in front of your eyes. Check it out. Let me know what you think.
A MAN HAS 4 DIFFERENT TYPES OF WOMEN…
1. Wifey
2. Boo
3. Bitches
4. Ho’s
1. Wifey: Is irreplaceable…and she is the only one that is irreplaceable…She is the girl that the guy loves and will always love – and he never wants to see her with another man. But, he will cheat on her with Boo, Bitches and Ho’s until he is mature enough to realize that if he loses Wifey, he would be screwed and NEVER be happy again.
2. Boo: Is replaceable – she thinks she’s Wifey, but will NEVER be Wifey because Wifey was made Wifey and is irreplaceable. She can NEVER replace her. Boo tries to take Wifey’s spot, but once she attempts, the guy allows her to get a TASTE of Wifey’s spot but, will NEVER achieve her spot for any longer than a few months, then the man goes back to Wifey…and Boo either gets replaced with another Boo, or, the man matures and decides that Wifey is the one for him… (Ladies… you don’t want to be Boo)
3. Bitches: A female that a male uses only for sxx or other sexually related events…Dat call when Wifey’s acting up and you need a quick nut. The naughty woman is the first one running there.
4. Ho’s: Enough said! Trying to move up in life, wants to be a naughty woman or a Boo. Hoes are just the girls you bag for no reason and have them in your phone. Backups in case a naughty woman or a boo slips up.
A WOMAN has 4 different types of MEN
THE HUSBAND
He is the sweetest, loving, kind man you know. His intellect makes him sexy although he is handsome. He treats you like a queen and puts you first. He takes care of the kids, you and home. This is the man you love coming home to. He spoils you with gifts and is a hard worker.
The BOO
This one is sexy as hell! This is the dude that you've known for years, kinda your homey-lover-friend! No matter who is in your life or who is in his life, you and your BOO seem to always have a thing for each other. Your BOO has a wifey, so he has as much to lose as you do, therefore you are guaranteed that ya'll relationship is on the 'DL'. You run to your BOO when your husband “F†up! Your BOO gives you comfort and the sex is da bomb, which explains why you can't leave him alone!
THE MAINTENANCE MAN
This is Mr. Wine and Dine. He has the charm, the romance and a body like a stripper! He is the one you call every now an then when HUSBAND and BOO done pissed you off! He really wants to be your HUSBAND or BOO on the low but he knows his role. HUSBAND will never suspect a thing because this man is the deacon at your church and well respected in the community so no one would know of ya'll secret love affair. You sneak and go on trips and getaways. He keeps that bank account tight.
THE RUFF NECK
This is the man we fantasize about when HUSBAND, BOO and THE MAINTENANCE man just not doing it for you! This is Mr. Bad Boy, he got the body from hell, the tattoos, and the motorcycle. You call on him when you want your back blown out, the bottom hit, and you want to walk bow legged for a couple days. He is the man HUSBAND sees and knows he needs to get on the treadmill to lose those extra pounds he has gained since ya'll been married. THE RUFF NECK is the one that rock the suits in the day and trade the Armani in for tims and jeans at night. He is pulled out in emergencies only and you can't resist to get your freak on in the craziest places, (in the car, the back of a vacant building, etc.) because his main goal is to tear it up! THE RUFF NECK is in your cell phone as one of your homegirls named Tee-Tee!

These Changes
If you want to make God laugh, tell him what you got planned. That's why for the last few months I've just been listening to Him. Waiting for some direction. Trying to decide if these changes I want to make are definitely changes I need to make.
Some of them are big, and some of them are small. However, they are all part of the process to becoming a better and a happier me.
I'm about to start living for me. Not just for everyone else. I keep saying that but in light of recent situations, I must. I have to.
Dear Lord,
please, please bring closure to my past, peace to my present, and promise to my future. Amen.

My December 1st Resolution
Things are about to change, I have some things I want to accomplish in the year 2012 and I am not waiting until New Years to begin working on them.
I am, however, going to start on the 1st of December. That's right, tomorrow. People are always saying tomorrow may be to late but today I'm writing out these plans of mine so that tomorrow I can begin to actually get things going.
What I'm making today will be something like a map so that I can remain focused. Because as of late, things have been blurring my vision.
I'm ready for tomorrow. Well, not quite I have to finish my calendar and such first then I will be ready.
It's time for me to make a few changes in my life so that I can really enjoy life. I shouldn't have to force myself to take vacations. I see big things in my future so as long as God keeps talking to me I'm going to keep listening.
I have decided upon one thing though this morning. I will not let the small stuff affect me. I can't give people that kind of power over me.
Excited about the things to come.

Sleep Talker
I sleep walk, not always but every now and then it just happens. That's normal. Well not normal, but it's common.
However, I'm not normal, I'm different.
I sleep talk as well. In fact last night while I slept comfortably in my bed my sister recorded me in the act.
She always comes over and doesn't sleep when she's having troubles with her men, and I always seem to get caught doing something weird.
First of all, I was talking calmly. And then I got into an argument. It's funny because I haven't really had any problems with anyone except for my mom lately. But that's a usual problem in my life so I don't see how I could have been arguing with her.
And she doesn't speak a lick of Spanish. Whoever I may have been verbally tussling with had to be speaking Spanish because the entire my sister is recording I'm talking and then yelling, in Spanish.
It's kind of weird because if you've ever seen someone sleep talk you know we move as if we are awake.
I don't know if I should be laughing still or worried because ummm, it is kind of weird.
Priceless moments, embarrassing moments, but priceless all the same.

Online Dating and Long Distance
Apparently I'm missing something because online dating is like the new thing. People seem to meet each other through all kinds of websites now.
I mean relationships are starting on Facebook and Twitter? (Really?)
eHarmony, Zoosk, OkCupid, Match.com, (yes I'm googling them) mingle2.com and a host of others are all making dreams come true for those persons interested in finding love.
Now I'm not knocking people who choose to find love via the internet I just feel as if that's not enough.
I want to fall in love the old fashion way. I want to be courted. Seriously courted. I want to be picked up and taken out.
Phone calls and online chatting just wouldn't do it for me. I'm a person that loves face to face conversation and well skype just can't cut it.
Now, some people will say that this is just like long distance relationships and that may be but, even then I can only deal with long distance relationships to an extent.
I was in one so I know how to handle it. I was here and my love was in Korea. I take pride, still to this day on being faithful. I looked forward to being able to see him, and spend time with him while he was on leave.
But of course we both wanted more, unfortunately only one of us could handle being a part.
I can't lie and say I didn't want him around all the time but I respected the fact that when he left we were together and I was hoping then that when his tour was over we'd be together when he got back.
But he couldn't handle it. *Courtney Shrug* because I'm over it now.
Now I have my reservations about long distance love. But like few I have an open mind and am only willing to work at a relationship if the other person is willing to do the same.
I don't know man, I'm still learning and I'm still growing as far as my heart is concerned. But ummm online dating... no. Long distance... ummmmm I don't know.

Cured Boredom
We fell asleep.
J came over last night to watch trash tv with me but that didn't happen. We ended up eating Chinese and Netflix-ing it.
We did talk some though, well we argued. She's a Washington Deadskins fan poor thing. And we laughed, a lot, about absolutely nothing.
She asked me what I'm always doing on my laptop because the two times she's come over it has been up. So I told her I blog, and I write. Which is the reason for the journal in my pocketbook.
I even let her run through my blogs, even the ones I don't write on anymore. I don't know what she stopped to read and what she ignored but it's all good because she didn't run out screaming.
Which is what this one guy did after he read a post of mine over the summer. Well, he didn't run but he walked away rather quickly.
I do have a random question for anyone that will answer, what is wrong with me sleeping in long sleeve shirts/hoodies in the winter time? I like to be comfortable.
Anywho, we cuddled up on the couch and watched movies until we fell asleep. J woke me up at like 3 something this morning to let me know she was leaving. Which was fine because I did have to come to work this morning.
I haven't fallen asleep on the couch with someone in a long time and it was quite nice.
It was the perfect cure for my Sunday night boredom.
J came over last night to watch trash tv with me but that didn't happen. We ended up eating Chinese and Netflix-ing it.
We did talk some though, well we argued. She's a Washington Deadskins fan poor thing. And we laughed, a lot, about absolutely nothing.
She asked me what I'm always doing on my laptop because the two times she's come over it has been up. So I told her I blog, and I write. Which is the reason for the journal in my pocketbook.
I even let her run through my blogs, even the ones I don't write on anymore. I don't know what she stopped to read and what she ignored but it's all good because she didn't run out screaming.
Which is what this one guy did after he read a post of mine over the summer. Well, he didn't run but he walked away rather quickly.

Left Overs
My Thanksgiving holiday is officially over. I must say it was quite a break. My grandma being here really did me a lot of good. According to her it did her a lot of good too.
My week was actually very relaxing. It was just what the doctor ordered, literally.
My breakfast date with J was pretty chill. The conversation was really good. And anyone who knows me knows I'm all about good conversation. She's older than I am, but only by 2 years.
She's in grad school at state. Although we've played intramural basketball against each other, and then on the same all-star team I never really knew who she was.
We're supposed to kick it again sometime this week so I'm a bit excited.
I did do some black friday shopping with her though. After she came to my place and ate sweet potatoes at 1 in the morning. Both of us had friends that tagged along so it made for an interesting array of conversation.
Anywho, I'm still upset that I haven't seen the lady from the Target commercials. I was so anxious to sing "rum tummy tummy, rum tummy tummy, rum tummy tummy ho ho ho" with her.
I'm kind of sad that this holiday break is over, but I'm excited that it is because on Friday I'll be headed to NYC for the weekend.
2 weeks left in the semester and then it's work, work, work, and more Xmas shopping.
I miss my grandma already, I want her to come back. Ugh, I've been writing a lot in my journal lately. Poetry is starting to pour out of my ink pens and I might share it, I don't know yet.

The Monday Review In Quicktime
I went to work.
Some of my students came and hung out with me while I was on the clock.
I went to my doctors appointment.
I had lunch with my homegirl Nita.
Saw a hawk attack a squirrel on campus :-(.
Got a number from this cutie named JG. He's like 6' 5. Very sexy.
I went and sat in my car while it got washed. I haven't done that in ages. It was like being a kid again.
I met a girl, well she came and met me. Apparently she was looking for me, I know her though so I didn't know why she was acting all shy like. Weird but I'll def give more details after our breakfast date in the morning.
I'm about to start my winter cleaning extremely early because tomorrow... My grandmother is coming!!!!!

I Want...
I want some head so good my muscles contract and my walls collapse.
So good my eyes roll back and there's a natural arch in my back.
I want some love so tender that, ooh wee my soul cries out.
Love so good it blows my back out.
I want kisses so sweet,
Each one feels different when they are placed all over me.
But each will carry the same amount of intensity.
I want the right person, to say the right things to me.
So right it makes me weak at the knees.
I want you to place your hands all over me.
Study my body like a student in anatomy.
I just want you... whoever you are.

It's Getting Harder to Hide
It bothers me to breathe. It's like I'm inhaling something that is strong like acetone.
I cough, constantly now. I can't even sleep at night. It like bronchitis but 100x worse. I can't even go out to dinner with my sisters without them jumping down my throat about not taking better care of myself.
But what more can I do. I've taken time off and out for myself. I try and sleep more. I've been leaving the office earlier on a daily basis.
I don't know what else to do. Luckily my hair isn't falling out like it did the first time. I'm already rockin' the mini fro.
There really is nothing left to lose. I know this isn't funny but I have to try and keep my spirits up.
This is forcing me to step up my game in life. Game meaning, get my life more together. Why is it that when people are faced with life altering situations they get a sudden boost of confidence?
I should have stepped up and did this a while back but I didn't have the motivation to until I found out I just might be enduring this fight for a second time.
Ugh! My life really just started picking back up and I'm smiling everyday now, I can't go back there.
I don't want to. Whoo Lordy, it's praying time like my grandmother says.

Open Mic Night
It was wonderful. I was so nervous that I thought my legs would give out on me as I walked from the back of the room. Everyone was staring, and all I could do was stare back.
I seemed to have to climb on stage, and just as I turned to face the crowd, there he was, smack dab in the dead center of the crowd. One of my co-workers.
How could I have missed him sitting there, next to a few people I recognized from campus.
Ugh. This is what I was trying to avoid. The same guy that laughed when he found out I liked to write was now going to hear my thoughts. All I could think about was that on Friday work was going to be awkward.
But then I realized something, who cares who was there as long as I was doing what I had been wanting to do all this time.
Overcome this fear of baring my soul to people so that they could get to know me. So, I inhaled and let my spirit flow.
I opened my mouth and "My Contradiction" poured out of my mouth.
It wasn't even what I had planned to perform but it's what I needed to do. I immediately felt so much better about everything that has been going on. I just felt so, I don't know.
Like I had revealed all of myself to that room full of people. I'm definitely going to do it again.
And work wasn't so awkward.

Overcome this fear of baring my soul to people so that they could get to know me. So, I inhaled and let my spirit flow.
I opened my mouth and "My Contradiction" poured out of my mouth.
It wasn't even what I had planned to perform but it's what I needed to do. I immediately felt so much better about everything that has been going on. I just felt so, I don't know.
Like I had revealed all of myself to that room full of people. I'm definitely going to do it again.
And work wasn't so awkward.
Something I Felt the Need to Post
I've been reading blogs and everyone seems to have that one blog in which friendship is the topic of discussion. So, I want to share this saying that my cousin sent me a while back when I was dealing with "friends."
"I TOLD GOD TO PROTECT ME FROM MY ENEMIES AND I STARTED LOSING FRIENDS."
Crazy isn't it?

I Had To...
I had to lose “myself” to find just a piece of MYSELF.
I had to lose my mind to find to find sanity in this life of mine.
I had to lose many “friends” to be blessed with a few true friends.
I had to suffer losses to truly appreciate my winnings.
I had to… so that I could.

Too Local Open Mic
In about 2 hours and some change I'll be participating in an open mic that is too close for comfort.
I can travel way out to the other side of Richmond where no one knows me and I don't have to face the people the next day but, this one tonight is 2 minutes away from my school.
And quite a few people I work with chill here apparently. I'm so nervous because this is a side of me not a lot of people know about.
I'm just hoping I shake these nerves before I get up there on that little stage. Plus it's my favorite sushi spot, if I get up there and mess up I'm going to remember it every time I have a dragon roll.
This isn't the only thing bothering me though. I had a not so good doctors visit the other day and I'm a bit down about it.
I'm trying to decide when I'm going to tell my sisters because the first time I went through this I thought they were going to pass out.
I don't know if I'm strong enough to handle this again so I'm hoping that it's not as bad as it feels.
I been praying so much that God help me through this again I practically live in my "prayer closet" as my grandmother calls it.
Whoo, I gotta shake this, and I gotta shake it now. It's already thrown me off once, I won't let it throw me off again.

You've Changed
It bothers me just a bit when people who haven't seen me say, "Girl, you've changed." Ummm duh! That's what people do when time passes.
Anywho, today while I was enjoying some me time I ran into this girl I went to school with when I first moved to Virginia. I'm not the one to hold grudges but, if I didn't associate with you in school, honey I'm not going to act all, "Ooooh hey girl, how you been? What you been up too?" That's just not me.
I didn't care then, still don't. But, I am a cordial person. So I said hey back, and hit her with the "I'm good". Then she hit me with the, "Girl you don' lost weight, and cut all yo hair off."
Obviously lol
I don't know, I just think it's weird when people say that I've grown or I'm becoming a beautiful young woman. It's like people think time stands still when I leave their presence.
But she did say one thing that made me feel good on the inside, she told me I looked happier. That is one thing I didn't realize people noticed then, that I wasn't always the happy.
But, ever since I left VA and went back to Texas to get my life together I've lost the weight and re-evaluated who I was and wanted to be. Just recently though did I realize that in order for me to really be the real me I had to change who I saw in the mirror.
So with all that excess fat, when all of that beautiful hair my grandmother gave me. So, I made the big chop and am living a napptural life. Slowly becoming the person I always feared to be, myself.
So, she was right in her observation, I am happier.
Life's Lesson when growing up: People never change, and we will never change who we are, we will simply become who we've always wanted to be... ourselves.

Lately
Lately I been itching to write but I've been so busy that I've been putting it off. But, there are some things going on in my head I need to get out, so I'm going to run through some stuff right now.
First, my little sister is obsessed with this boy group, Mindless Behavior. So, she won some tickets and a chance to hang with for three hours on Sunday. Oh my gosh if she isn't the most excited 16 year old ever.
I gave my dad his Christmas gift a month and some days early because it just couldn't wait. This Sunday, my dad will be attending the Dallas v. Washington game. He has been a Cowboys fan since before I was even thought of and I saved up all year so that he could go to this game and actually see the game without squinting. Oh Mmm Gee when I handed him the tickets I thought he was going to sprint across the country. I got him some Dallas stuff to wear too but he can't have that until Sunday. Too many surprises in one day, just isn't healthy.
I've been attending some open mic nights in the area lately. Nothing major just some small stuff. But it's been pretty chill. There's a place in RVA I'm thinking about venturing too once I get the courage up to do so.
I'm currently in the process of getting my body Hawaii ready. I use to be huge, then I lost a whole person. But ever since then I've been slacking in the workout department so, I'm back at it. I might even get back into playing basketball or softball.
I just need to get back to having fun, I can't take a vacation every weekend. Although I would love to. Hmmm, more poetry to come out of me I believe.
Oh, and I will be following this Penn State thing all the way through, I want to make sure I know everything I can before I write about it. One thing I'll say though, this is disgusting and sad.
Long live JoePa though!!!!! (what can I say, the man is a legend)

Relax, Relate, Release *In my Whitley Voice*
I have been working my BUTT off this past month and a half and I finally got a break. So I took it! I got in my little red focus, drove an hour and a half to the 757 to stay at the ALoft hotel. Which is okay but not all that.
However, I needed to get away for a while so I came. And I am loving every minute of it. There is nothing more relaxing than waking up, working out, showering, and climbing back into the bed.
I did enjoy some fruit and granola this morning, and a glass of the best breakfast drink ever. The lady that brought my food said she'd never heard of people mixing orange juice and cranberry juice but she was going to try it.
But now I'm watching a movie and secretly laughing at the people that had to drag themselves to work this morning. I did bring my books though. I don't mind studying when I'm on one of my get-a-ways. As long as I don't have to run to class or do something for someone.
Don't get me wrong, I love helping people out but sometimes, I need to do something for myself. This is it. But, I need to get back to my movie. Christmas with the Kranks is actually quite funny.
Hmmmm sweet peace.

Bedroom Guard
It stands before your body as an invisible wall. Waiting to be torn down. It is the gatekeeper to your most sacred gift, this gift...
When someone knows you like that it makes it your entire body exhale and smile with pure satisfaction. It is that time when you literally bare your soul to someone.
There is just something about someone that knows just how to please you in such a way that it leaves you speechless and truly satisfied. It's a feeling that comes over you when someone knows you inside and out.
It is the time when you reveal who you are inside and out. Now, this isn't the first time but this time it is different from any other time.
He knows you now, more than you think he does. More than anyone else ever did. He's studied your every movement. The way your hips and lips move, the way your eyes dance. He knows, simply by the way your body moves, just how pleased you are.
He knows just what to do so that you desire him even when your body is satisfied beyond it's limits. His strong hands seem to always be in the perfect place, his lips caress your skin at he right time.
Your bodies become one without hesitation, they move together slowly, quickly. They are elegant and divine.This is what love making feels like.
It gives the body a rush when it's slow and sensual, and causes the body to beg for more repeatedly when the tempo increases. It is this that makes you reminisce days after, tender love.
This gift is beautiful and real, but it is guarded.
To be continued...
Gimme the But(t)
I am currently having a conversation and I can't help but think about the but in the back of my mind. Why is it when people ask questions, or want the explanation to a question people hit that whole "I would... BUT..."
Now I'm not pinpointing the person in which the conversation was had, it's just that. But this is the third "but" conversation I've had today. And yet and still, no one will give me the but. Why not? What's wrong with giving up the but?
People give up the butt (notice the extra T) all the time, but they can never seem to give up the but without a little nudge. Hmmmm, now I have been known to not give up the but and I'm working on that.
However, why won't people just gimme the BUT!!!

Please, You're Just Horny
So, last night I had an extremely good conversation with my sister... and I admitted something that was so true and so on point that I had to Facebook it. The funny thing is, not everyone was feeling it. In fact, I got quite a few emails, an angry phone call, and even some odd text messages, all from guys to... go figure.
"You know, I be thinking I have feelings for people... turns out, I just be horny."-Yeah I said it, so what-
You gotta admit that is kinda funny and true. Let's be serious for a second people. Being horny can kind of be considered an emotion. Which is defined as any strong feeling. And being horny is quite a strong feeling. Anyone who says different has never been horny (or getting it in day in and day out).
Now, don't get me wrong. I'm not saying that every relationship I've ever been in is because I wanted some, it's just that, those guys who I should have known weren't good for me and who I knew I would never consider a lifetime partner, I've simply lusted over. They were sexy, and at the time, had it going on on the outside.
Being horny is an emotion people wear on their sleeve so to speak. One minute they're lusting over that guy or girl (b/c fellas y'all do it too) in the club. Saying stupid things like, "look at how he moving on the dance floor I bet he could ooh wee all up in the bedroom. Ima get that." Or "Dang shortie got an ass on her, ima hit that and make her one of my jants." But after a failed attempt or a change of topic, the feeling is gone.
In all honesty, I'll admit, I've entertained the thought of talking to a guy because of his physical, but I know that'll get me nowhere. As much as I love to look at a fine tall brother and think about how pleased I'd be in the bedroom, I need more in my life than some thang thang. And that's the truth honey.
I'm not knockin' you if all you looking for is some good good, but ummm don't let your hormones pick and choose the "relationships" you choose to be in because eventually, you're gonna wanna know more about the person you're having sex with... at least I hope so.

I Got Love On My Mind Because I Miss It
I miss it.
The love that is to be made.
The passion that is played upon.
But, why did I give it all up?
What made me want to let go of something so real.
Maybe it wasn't real love.
Maybe it was fake.
But, I miss it.
I miss...
I miss the long slow kisses..
The gentle touch of one's hand.
I miss the randomness before.
But most of all I miss the intimacy after.
I miss the soft heavy breaths I was forced to take.
The feeling of pure ecstasy.
But I gave it up.
Why?
Because I got tired of the planned sex.
As much as I enjoyed it,
I got tired of the pushing and pulling.
Because it wasn't real.
It was staged.
It was certain to happen.
I got tired of that.
I got tired of being told, when you get here...
I didn't miss that.
Sometimes, no, all the time.
I want the randomness.
The quality time.
Because I don't want love all the time.
Well, not the physical.
But when I want it, like now.
I want it.
I miss it.
The love.
Being loved on.
When I'm bored my mind wanders to
The love.
I got love on my mind.
Because
I Miss It.
Which Means I Might Have to do This Again
Magician
Without warning I was gone... just like a magician performing in front of hundreds of people I disappeared. But I didn't do it for the entertainment of others, I feel like that's what I had been doing all along. Entertaining people.
Entertaining people's thoughts and ideas, satisfying their needs to be listend to, being their shoulder to cry on. I entertained them with my responses to their constant never-ending bullsh*t problems that in my eyes weren't worth the stress. Yet I listened. Because I cared, and knew they needed someone to be there.
But when it was my turn entertain people, it was like being at a magic show when the magician is doing his played out card trick and all the audience wants is for him to disappear. So, I ended my card trick and immediately went to my disappearing act.
But why? Who wants to be unseen? It was like my whole show fell apart. My family broke first, constant arguing and door slamming. I bust my ass to help pay bills and in return I get, that's not enough, sonce when is $350 a month not enough when you have a good job? Huh, I don't get it. I am the lone ranger in my house.
My so-called friends, who I was there for no matter what, have become memories for, now when I need them they don't have time to listen. They'll talk, but won't listen. It was like what I was going through was simply easy to handle. Getting over the fact that your own family won't help you when you need them most is easy to handle, like a broken heart because love didn't love you back is easy to handle. Being robbed of another child must be easy to handle for some but for me, it was terrible.
So, what do I have left, no family, no friends... school. But even that seemed to slide through my fingers. I work my ass off to pay tuition, and I bust my ass in the gym everyday so that I could play ball in college. But as soon as things started looking up I realized that I all I could do was look. It was like my finger tips were brushing across the door into RU but I couldn't grab hold of the hanlde.
So with that, I gave up on trying to entertain people. They didn't want to applaud me, they didn't want to be there when the show ended. So, I thouhgt about what I needed. I needed change, I needed joy in my life I needed...I needed a whole new act

Repost: (I'm feeling like this again)
what's my name?
courtney lashay, miss extraordinary, coconut, big-point, big head... all of these names and yet not one of them describes me in full... maybe thats why i have so many. or maybe its because not everyone who knows me, knows me. i mean, im real at all times but not all of me is on display at all times.
i can only be my true self, the good, the bad, and at times the ugly around a few people, the people who i trust whole-heartedly. who i know won't change their opinions, judge me, or shun me because of the decisions i've made and will make right, wrong, or stupid.
i guess miss extraordinary describes me in full but the name makes me think of a superhero. and that makes me wonder, could i be a superhero???? i mean, superheroes are strong in every sense of the word and i'm not... ugh!!!
oh well, i guess when it comes down to the right nickname for me the right person will bless me with it. whoever that is.

I Want That Kind of Love
I want that kind of love where I hate to leave home in the morning because you're there. But I love to return because, you'll be there.
I want that kind of love that most people can only dream about. Real love.
That fight all night and then kiss and make up love.
That late night and early mornings love.
I want that kind of love that makes me want to scream your name from the roof tops.
I want that kind of love that when, you hurt I hurt, and when I hurt you hurt. When I smile you smile, and when you cry, I cry.
I want that love that isn't perfect. But still everyday is worth it.
I want that old folks love. That, for better or worse we will get through this love.
I want that 50 years and going strong love.
I want that love where when people pass us they say, "You don't see love like that any more do you."
I want that kind of love.
I want that kind of love that most people can only dream about. Real love.
That fight all night and then kiss and make up love.
That late night and early mornings love.
I want that kind of love that makes me want to scream your name from the roof tops.
I want that kind of love that when, you hurt I hurt, and when I hurt you hurt. When I smile you smile, and when you cry, I cry.
I want that love that isn't perfect. But still everyday is worth it.
I want that old folks love. That, for better or worse we will get through this love.
I want that 50 years and going strong love.
I want that love where when people pass us they say, "You don't see love like that any more do you."
I want that kind of love.
9 years
When he was 9, I was 2 months old.
When he was 18, I was 9.
But when I was 16, he was 25.
And we, became friends.
It's kind of weird. Like, what kind of people were we? Are we?
We would always have these little convos in the office. "Hey, how ya doin's" and "What you been up to's?"
Every so often, I'd notice in him, or he'd notice in me, a slight hint of distress. Which lead to the "What's wrongs" and "We can talk about it's."
I don't mean to toot my own horn but at 14 I was way to mature for my age. Made my mother's uncomfortable.
But, I was who I was.
So, when it came down to it. I was friends with older people.
And that's all we were, was friends.
Until that one day.
I hopped in the car and started singing with him. But it was so normal, you would have never known we had only known each other for a few months.
Then someone said those fatal words, "Y'all look so cute together."
That made our friendship weird for a few days.
And then after 2 years of talking, flirting, and working together... it happened.
Stop thinking nasty! We just kissed.
After that things got a little, friendly, friendly like.
But I realized something, I missed my friend.
So, after 2 more years of teasing each other we finally stopped everything.
It's been 2 years since I even looked at my friend that way and our friendship is stronger than ever.
But now he's 31, and I'm 22.
And we often talk about what made either one of us decide it was okay to fool around, after we said, we'd never cross that line.
There still is no answer, but it is for sure... we will not go back in that direction.
Love that guy.

Jewel vs. Brittany vs. Becky
It's pretty clear that I'm a little on the not normal side and I'm okay with that. But my insides are having this debate on which person Courtney needs to be.
I (Courtney) would just like to be myself. I don't want to be any of the people that have become a part of me over the past few years. It's like everyone knows a different side to me but not only 1 person, in this whole wide world, knows Courtney.
You would think that one person would be like my perfect match, my everything, my all. But he's just a friend. And old (literally lol) friend, who I need to publish this blog about.
I'll do that next.
Anyway, he knows everything. From beginning to end. He loves me, and I love him but ummm he doesn't like me.
People have so many different opinions on who I am as a person that he feels the real me has yet to run out on stage and scream, "Hey world! I'm here!!!!!!!!!!!!"
He met who the girls refer to as Jewel. The cute one with the long hair, and the jewelry (go figure she wears jewelry), and the pumps. Nice attitude and very shy. He can't stand her.
Jewel is shallow. Always in the mirror. Addicted to sex. smh
He also has met Becky. The white girl. The one who has a lot of "blonde moments." Whatever that means. If you have a slow moment you have a slow moment. I know brunettes that have made dumber decisions. lol
Funny thing about Becky is, Becky don't give head (sorry plies). She's too well behaved for that. In fact, Becky is still a virgin. Poor thing.
He likes Brittany to an extent. She's a bit of a thug. Long hair don't care. "Dressed in all black like the omen." (Whose line is that?) She likes to go out on occasion and find trouble. She's a very revealing person physically. She's addicted to it all. I think the girl is nasty.
But hey, that's just me. And trust, Brxt ain't no virgin, anywhere.
See what I'm saying though. I'm a little unbalanced. You put all of them together and well, you don't have Courtney, you got 4 different people.
Courtney is, an athlete, a sister, a friend and... a little twisted. I really just like to have fun. My friend said I should really allow people to meet the whole me. This way their perceptions of me aren't alternate personalities. So here goes nothing.
Good Evening, my name is Courtney LaShay and I am... not going to tell. So figure it out.
Even the most outgoing people have to leave something to the imagination.

I gotta get my life together. Not that it isn't together right now but it could be more together than it is.
Does that make sense?
Let me clarify a little. I'm behind in some things at school and I need some time to get caught up. In all seriousness, I could really stay at home all day Friday. I have to teach at Matoaca High during 1st period on Friday, but after that I believe I'm going home and crawling into my bed.
I sound so lazy but, I have never in my life been this tired. I've had two jobs before but the hours are kicking my cakes.
All I need is one day to just get everything in order and then I'll be ready to take on the world again. But I can't help but feel like I might need to take more time than that.
Lately a lot has been running through my head and I just might need to go on another
another, whatever it is. Last time I did it I dropped off the face of the earth and things changed.
They got better, and they stayed better (hello I'm still celibate). So I'm hoping that the things plaguing me now will subside and I can move on to bigger and better things.
All I know is right now I have so much to do it's driving me crazy and I'm so tired it's making me mad. I sleep about 3 hours a night, not b/c I'm just up wasting away but because I'm studying, or working, or doing something that only Courtney can do.
I just want to get away for a weekend if I can't take my month long hiatus. I just need some time to relax, and get over this flippin' cold.

This Morning
This morning I woke up wanting it. I mean I wanted it so bad it made no sense. I don't know why but 1 month prior to me celebrating my one year of celibacy up until now I have been overly horny. It's like my body wants nothing more than to be satisfied.
But I can't give in, I'm not ready to yet. Or am I? I can't make my body stop craving what I would feed to it on a regular basis for so long. I sound like an addict. It's funny because my friends use to call me a nympho and now refer to me as a caged nympho.
I hate to say it but they might be right. It's like every time I walk past someone that appeals to my senses I can't help but wonder what the sex is like. I have half a mind to make this one phone call that would put my body at ease but opening up that door will lead to a repeat performance if my past.
I don't want that. Especially with the talk of relationships and such going on all around me. I just can't enter into another relationship based on the fact that every time we're alone sex will be the main topic of "Physical Discussion."
I need to find another extracurricular activity, and soon.

Hello November
There are plenty of reasons why I am happy to say that November has arrived. For one, homecoming is over. I am so worn out, and sick that all I really want to do is sleep. Also, my grandma is coming to visit for Thanksgiving. That woman always lifts my spirits and by then, I'm going to need it. School and work are stressing me out. And oh, let's not forget, Thanksgiving dinner!!! Lol.
I love being able to eat Thanksgiving dinner, watch football until I fall asleep, and then wake up to do it all over again. Even though I won't be with my entire family as long as my grandma is here I'll be just fine.
November was supposed to bring me fall foliage since October didn't really bring me enough but mother nature and I are going to talk about that. I look forward to this weather because I know spring soon come. And I love the heat.
So, while winter fast approaches and the light jackets become heavy pea-coats and tall boots I'm preparing myself for some fun.
Finals in the first week of December and then an entire month off from school. That means I'll be in New York soon, then home for the holidays and oh the trouble I plan to get in to.
So, hellooooo November, it is very nice to see you.

Back to Reading
When I stopped writing, I stopped reading. I stopped enjoying me. My need to write and my desire to read go hand in hand. Both are ways that I enjoy me. Even when I'm writing about something that hurts me, or forces me to relive certain memories, I enjoy it.
Sounds a bit crazy, but if anyone has ever been through something that just broke them down, I am 200% sure that if they wrote it down they enjoyed it because they wrote their frustrations out.
That, is something to enjoy. The release of emotional pain and frustration onto paper. It's like pulling off an ugly pair of shoes that you walked around in all day long because you felt like their was nothing else to wear.
But, I'm falling back into the swing of things now and my oh my how much I am enjoying it. The more I write, the more I want to read. And the more I read the more I relax.
I most definitely have to get back reading more blog posts to, especially since about 6 people send me links to blogs they think I need to read. Thing is, I do need to read them.
Hmmm back to reading.

I Know Why, But I Don't Know Why
There are certain things about a woman that pull me in. The affection I get from her, her ability to please my mental and my physical without direction. Her ability to match the passion behind my kiss equally without struggle. The softness of her touch and the tenderness of her lips. And the conversation... yes. Women, most of them anyway, in my opinion, always seem to know exactly where you're coming from. No two women are alike in any way.
Then there are things I can get from a man that I can't get from a woman. A man's physical strength is, mhmmm, something that I crave at times. The strong hands that grip my back, the extra force behind his stroke in the heat of the moment. Some men have said some of the most intelligent things to me that have made me weak at the knees but, I always seem to want more.
I don't know, I just like what I like and I want what I want. For me being curious is satisfying to my "sweet tooth." It's like having the best of both worlds. I love her affection but I love his strength. I love her body, and hot damn I love his. Too many similarities and too many differences.

Still Celibate
Yesterday I celebrated 1 full year of being celibate by enjoying homecoming at VSU and then going out with a few friends to Colors. That was stupid.
There is nothing smart about going to a club full of men and women all on their A-game when you're craving some sexual attention. But I did have fun. I hadn't been out to Colors since my loves drag show and my how things have changed (insider).
I did enjoy myself though, and my friends helped me celebrate right. They surprised me with a few people from the 757 as well.
And although I was quite tempted to let my flesh make all my decisions I decided to party hard and then come home to a hot shower and some really good sleep.
Anywho, I've got other things I want to post but I felt like dedicating just one to myself!
Happy 1 year Anniversary to me.

Bear With Me, I Need to Ramble
I'm not really the normal type.
I pride myself on that.
I'm celibate.
But I get extremely horny at times.
I don't like hickies.
But I like the way it feels when someone is giving one.
Mhmmm bite me baby. lol
I think my homegirl is the sexiest stud I ever seen.
I've been in love with the same person since I was 13.
But that's another story.
I'm addicted to twitter.
I can't help it I love to share my thoughts with people.
Twitter is the next best thing after blogging.
I'm hungry.
I wouldn't mind being in a lip lock right now.
I'm going to see DeRay Davis tonight at my homecoming Comedy show.
I have heavily considered dropping out of school.
I spent the first two years of college effing up.
I'm really trying to stop cursing.
I'm really sleepy.
Sometimes I don't think I've gotten over my depression.
I feel like there may be more wrong with me than people think.
I'm starting to find myself in the midst of all this hell I been through though.
I'm learning more about me everyday.
Even when I'm feeling down.
I don't like breakfast, I love it.
I like to mix my cranberry and orange juice.
It tastes better that way.
I like working in the weight room in the mornings.
It gives me a chance to see what people look like under all those winter clothes they are about to start piling on.
I want some sushi.
And I want to go on a nice date.
But more than anything, I want to help people.
That is my main goal in life, there is nothing more fulfilling to my spirit than seeing someone be happy.
One Love <3

So NAPPtural
Sister locs or dreadlocks?
Mini afro or let it grow out like angie stone's.
Going natural is a process for me, one that I'm finding hard to handle because I've never had short hair.
It's always been fried, never dyed, and laid to the side. So, how do I manage this kinky forest atop my head.
I don't. I wash it and let it just... just. And then I slide a headband on it and go on with my day.
Ugh! I just gotta get my life and my hair together.

1 Year and Hopefully Still Counting
In 7 days I will be celebrating my first full year of celibacy. I can hardly believe it because there use to be a time when I couldn't go more than a couple days without giving in to the temptation of my flesh.
But mentally I am stronger now than I was then. But I still have my moments. I'm having one right now in fact but I'm trying to keep my mind busy.
This journey started as a joke between me and some friends, but as time went on I ended my 6 month bet by having what i thought might have been the best sex of my life lol.
However, going through that made me realize something, in those 6 months I learned quite a bit about myself and those around me.
So my simple bet became the first stepping stone in my path to becoming a better me. People asked how giving up sex helps me to be a better me but what they don't realize is that being celibate is about so much more than just not having sex, so much more.
It has helped me to see which people really wanted me for me, not for what I can do behind closed doors. It has caused me to develop a greater respect for myself and my body.
And, I'm sure that when I do finally decide to let my flesh taste the sweet and satisfying elixir that is sex it will be something like a great thing.
So, on this coming Saturday, not only will it be my Homecoming, it will be my anniversary.
But I gotta keep it real and admit, I wouldn't mind getting caught up in a mean lip lock with someone right about now. Just to satisfy this craving anyways.

Back to the Basics, Again
I haven't written anything since July. In fact, I hadn't the need to write anything. I don't know about other writers but I have to have the need to do so.
I use to have a need so great I would wake up early in the morning just to write something that was on my heart.
Whether it was something deep and insightful or shallow and amusing, I had to write it. But my need to write had faded.
I don't know why, because I wanted to write. I didn't really like the title of this blog at first, "My Final Thoughts."
It sounded like death. But after this long period of wanting to write and not needing to I have realized something. It isn't death, but it is final.
Because I can never relive that day or those moments again. They can be thought of, and the stories can be told of that days emotions but can't relive that day.
Sure, if I read over what I've written I may feel some of those emotions again, but it won't be the same. There I must get back to the basics.
I need to write because I need to release those feelings. Stop trying to relive those days over and over.
So, I getting back to the basics. When I need to write I'm going to write. Just let it go. I'm not going to force myself to write, I'm going to let it flow.
So, thanks to one of my followers/followees on twitter I am ready. So, thanks for the inspiration woman.
So without further ado, welcome back into my mind. These are my final thoughts.

I'm getting fed up with waiting. I'm the type of girl that needs some attention. I'm not asking for someone to be all in my face blowing up my phone all day everyday. But I hate to go days without talking.
I'd be happy with a, hey have a good day. At least then I know I'm being thought about. But heck I can't even get that.
I'm going to do a Tumblr post on cell phones probably tomorrow. I'm just not in the writing mood right now. I'm in reading mode.
I'm ready to go home and see my family because my Gramma and my aunt always seem to make things better.
Ugh! I hate to say it but if I don't get the attention I want and deserve soon I'm going to have to voice my opinion.
Today's Lesson: There isn't one. I'm trying to figure out just how patience is a virtue.
I'm tired so later.

I'm going to do a Tumblr post on cell phones probably tomorrow. I'm just not in the writing mood right now. I'm in reading mode.
I'm ready to go home and see my family because my Gramma and my aunt always seem to make things better.
Ugh! I hate to say it but if I don't get the attention I want and deserve soon I'm going to have to voice my opinion.
Today's Lesson: There isn't one. I'm trying to figure out just how patience is a virtue.
I'm tired so later.

After Thought
My dad and I had a conversation last night that made me cry more than normal. Every time I have a serious talk to my dad I cry. Because I know all the times I messed up hurt him.
And every conversation leads to him telling me to make sure I take care of my sister. And I always promise that I will.
I know I've let him down. It hurts me to say that, even now I want to cry. My dad and I haven't always seen eye to eye but I have always been a daddy's girl.
That's why I do this. That's why I work all day everyday. That's why I stay in on Fridays and study instead of go out.
I do this, I work hard, I give 200% daily to make my dad proud. It took awhile but I'm seeing that he has always been on my side.
I love my daddy and I'm going to do all that I can to reach my goals so that when the time comes I can do for him all that he has for me.
I don't care what anyone says... FUCK THEM TAYLOR'S I'm DAVIS. A Slider if you want to get technical.

Final Thoughts of the Week
I have been so busy this week that I haven't had the chance to share my final thoughts each and every day. But, finals are over and I'm almost caught up with everything that life throws my way.
So, I'm going to run through my week's final thoughts of each and everyday. Sooooo, here goes.
Monday: Well you saw those final thoughts. It was a bad day.
Tuesday: Tuesday was a pretty chill day. I began to get all of my final exam assignments so my week began to get real hectic. My SGA meeting went well and I will probably work on some of those things tonight. Nothing to major that day, but I did start sending out my good morning texts again. I plan on doing that daily like I use to.
Wednesday: I started losing it. It was my last day before all my finals were due so I did what I do best around finals time. I flipped out. I always do. Even when I have nothing to worry about. I have to do better this upcoming fall semester. Needless to say I got no sleep.
Thursday: FREAKING BUSY!!!! I did took my finals literally all day. But thanks to the many interruptions (meetings/stalking phone calls from my president/people just being people) I was up until 2 a.m. I even turned my phone off and people still found me. AT HOME!!!! Ugh! yesterday was just too busy and I was a mess.
Today!!!!!!
Today I got to work at 6a.m. (thats right, four hours after I went to bed I was at work)! Oh my gosh I dragged in something aweful. And I did not accomplish anything. Luckily we only worked a half day because our Company Cookout was at 12. I just get so bogged down in work I lose sight of fun. But I am not doing that again. Last night I decided that when I have no fun I had a nervous breakdown during my spanish final freshmen year.
I just get so tired. I really wish I could talk to him about things but we are both so busy we barely have time to talk to ourselves. No we are not crazy, just busy. But I'm dealing, that's why I'm sharing my final thoughts with you, whoever you are.
But yeah I want to talk a little about this blog. It will be my final thoughts of the day. Like a diary but not as secretive because well, it is on the internet for all the world to see.
I do have a Tumblr again. We got a divorce but we're working things out. Trying to be friends after the fact. (The Randomness That is C). Can't remember if I shared that already but if I did, well you get to see it again.
Today has been a bit rushed but I'm managing. I'm about to dive into this book that my friend and I are reading as our first book in our new book club.
Join us! We are doing a blog so that people can be a part of it from any and every part of the world.
I'm in love with Lupe Fiasco's Lasers album, I can listen to it no matter what I'm doing.
I'm rambling, this Final thought must be over. Hmph!
This week's lesson: Stop stressing, I always get it done.

My Very First Time, Again
I'm not sure how to start this blog. It reminds me of my very first time. My very first blog, my very first time sharing my thoughts by with the world.
I'm ready for this new blog to really take off. It is, the newest thing I have done in order to 'Become Me.'
I got rid of so many other things and added things that I felt it was time for me too start a new blog.
I even reconciled with Tumblr and brought back my randomness blog.
Today was a pretty chill day. Worked all day, picked up a much needed room organizer, and even washed a whole lot of clothes.
I'm getting ready to embark on this Book Club Blog journey with my friend and I'm kind of excited about it.
I'm starting to see ME more and more everyday.
Today's Lesson: Procrastination is my worse enemy.
About to go to sleep, workout in the morning and I need to have gotten enough sleep to be able to handle the day.
One Love
