I've been looking for work, nothing yet.
I was actually thinking of leaving the 'net, i saw no reason for me to put so much energy into something that seems like it bears no fruit. BUT, you know what I realized? well, what was brought to my attention by a buddy of mine. While I was complaining he said to me, "if it's important to you, then it can't be worthless" ain't that the gotdang truth and it makes so much sense.
Another associate of mine told me as I was wearing my pity party suit, "don't take this wrong but you have to do something besides sit under this dark cloud, do something about it, you talk a lot but you're not showing anything"
yeah, i got broke down in a good way. I do realize that I would rather complain about my life then change and I'm always the first one to encourage others to run after their dreams. I was about to run off a list of excuses as to why it's different for me.. but when I start off calling what I'm about to say an excuse.. it's not even worth elaborating.
I'm working on a plethora of things.
I just wanted to share these stories on my vox so that I can tell someone else that even when it seems like it's not worth the time.. if it's something you enjoy or are passionate about you should DO IT.
Everytime I build a website or make a graphic or write a poem, whenever I'm about to share I always say this to myself OUTLOUD "I DO IT BECAUSE I LOVE IT, NOT FOR THE LOVE" because sometimes I find that people are only doing things FOR the love and attention and if you base everything on how much feedback you get or how much people tell you what a great thing you did.. you'll always be disappointed.
at this time, I realize, I REFUSE TO GIVE UP on ANYthing I like doing, no matter how many folks question or criticize. It's not about validation.. it's about sharing what is dear to your heart.
I am off to watch DAN IN REAL LIFE and organize some things.
Good Morning.
I have a lot going on, but if the kind of "a lot going on" that I don't really want to talk about it because I'm experiencing it so much. I think I'm going to go watch a movie and pretend that it's my reality. I'm such an escapist, I'd rather live in unreality than put up with the real-ity.
I've been waiting anxiously for February 26 because it was the release of another album by my wife and Erykah Badu. I've yet to listen to either one and they are sitting still in their plastic wrappers staring at me in disbelief. Maybe I'm scared I'm going to be disappointed. These are 2 artists I count on.
Have a good weekend and God Bless.
Just because you might not of been happy as a fatty DO NOT THINK THAT OTHERS CAN'T BE! That's the problem with this world, everybody thinks that people thrive to fit in a certain prototype.. like it's not possible to focus on helping the world if you're fat. I almost want to say get over yourself skinny people but I know that there are skinny folks who don't think they are better than someone cause they're skinny.
I'm fat and you can't tell me I'm not beautiful or worth a damn because I don't wear a size 6.
Unless it is affecting you moving and doing in this world, don't let anyone tell you cause you're fat that you should get skinny first and then you'll enjoy the world more. Fat people get the same diseases as skinny people.. Fat people aren't of a different species. Fat people aren't the only ones with diabetes and high cholesterol and high blood pressure. I'm fat and I'm in the lower ends of ALL OF THAT, so it's about being HEALTHY on the inside NOT the outside.
Anyone who tries to define you by your waist size isn't shit. That's real rap. I don't put people down like that but if you judge people by how they look, YOU aren't worth what comes out of a behind and gets flushed down the toilet. I don't care if you have the fitness of Jillian and the looks of Angelina or Halle.. YOU AREN'T SPECIAL.
DON'T LET ANYONE TELL YOU YOUR WORTH. THE JUDGE OF YOU CAN'T BE SEEN BY THE NAKED EYE.
Seeing this makes you want to walk on Washington and stuff. This speech is beautiful. I definitely understand the hope Obama offers.. The Primary for Pennsylvania isn't until April. I don't know man.. no lie, this jawn brought tears to my eyes. This is some beautiful stuff.. I see you Obama. I'm saying Hillary, you got my vote but I'm seeing why you got such strong opposition from this man.
This is the video for missy's 2 new singles Ching-A-Ling/Shake Ya Pom Pom.. honestly I'm not feeling the songs.. I like the beats and I catch myself saying "chang chang getting paid over here" and other variants that aren't in the song.. But I must always give props to Missy when her videos drop because her stuff is always fun and entertaining and she always has some hot ass dancing. I've always dug Missy and even though I'm not feeling these songs as much as I do when she drops a single, I'm excited to know she's in the studio 'cause Missy is that woman.

I was listening to Jamie Foxx The Foxxhole on this site and I realized something. About 14 minutes into the show, they talk about why black people don’t want to vote for Obama and start addressing the reasons. I think that on some level I might of been a Hillary Clinton supporter because I didn’t want folks to think that just because I was black I was going to vote for a black man.
Someone told me about this site called Vote Help, where you answer questions based on if you agree or disagree and their importance. After filling out all the questions as best as I could, my results went Hillary, Edwards and THEN Obama. So, based on the issues not who they are and how well they speak, Hillary is talking more in line with what I want in this country.
There are still months to go and like I said, I’ve been kind of taken aback with some of the antics that are coming from the Clinton camp. But, I must say that I do support morals and honesty, and Barack Obama has character, he does have a presence about him. It all comes down to me having a hard time thinking just because someone is a tremendous spirit that they are the best for a job.
I definitely can say that I am on the fence. I think I need to start paying more attention to what is being said and not trying to defend my choice. Listen to the show, there is a LOT of good points that may make you reconsider your choice if you aren’t a Barack supporter. I definitely am going to pay more attention to Barack, though Hillary supports more of what I believe.
First off let me say, for some reason I'm really feeling myself today I'm feeling good. I think we should listen to this song which has been on repeat while I type up this i don't know how long it will get message.
I took some pictures today, put them on my flickr. I've messed with 2 types of lighting in the last couple of days one making me look "dark"
So, I'm getting real bored with my room and the lovely nieces were over this weekend. I have pictures of the wall and my nieces but I don't feel like going through the batch and uploading so I'll give you a glimpse here.
"I ain't get no sleep cause of youuuuu" yeah, we got a lot of love for Tanisha cause she's loud and I don't know.. she's the one I'd follow around the house just to be like awww Tanisha about to pop off!! If Bad Girls 2 takes a road trip and Tanisha's part of it.. I'm there dude requesting her to pop off
I've given up a bad habit let us hope that it does not come back and bite me in the bootay.
I'm job hunting.
I haven't been updating because it's more important for me to get MY sites up and running.
and I don't want to update the way I thought I did..
good day.
