Where I been…

Flaca in her element

Okay. So I’ve been takin’ forever to post cause frankly…I’ve been too busy readin’ everyone elses blog.

It started about 6-8 months ago with DnA at Too Sense.  It was like crack to me…the perfect answer to my dillema. I was fresh outta college and not living on campus so there was no one to talk politics with…and I’ve found that it leads to awkward silences at work so…thank you to everyone over there (DnA, OneDrop and all the guests) cause even though they prolly don’t know me from…anybody…their posts fed me.

From there I think I stumbled upon Mr. Furious and subsequently Mrs. Furious by way of Mr leaving a comment at Too Sense. His blogs kinda held me over while I was waiting for my fix from DnA or OneDrop. Now Mrs. Furious…was a blessing. I found her entries fun to read and they reminded me a lot of myself (Krisaela, not Pretty Flaca). I’ve been busy lately (I’ll explain later) and hadn’t got to read either blog as much as I’d like…and then today I played catch up with the Mrs…and I swear to Bob I wanna be her when I grow up. I read a recent post where someone was talkin’ down on stay at home moms and I was just in disbelief. Fashion Design is my first love, Track and Field is my second…but I’d give up both of them in a heartbeat if it meant I could have a family of my own and spend the time with my kids that my parents didn’t. I don’t mean to engage in ass kissery, but, she’s my hero (next to my little sister of course who…by the way is finna crank dat ass whoopin at regionals.

Shortly after quietly admiring the Furious’, I came across Don’s Minus The Bars and Deeper and Deeper. I love Don!!! I hardly ever comment on his stuff cause I’m usually too floored by it, or I’m at work and can’t get away with typing a lengthy response. He truly makes me think no matter which blog I choose, and sometimes when I’m thinkin too hard, his posts mellow me out.

Via Don, I came across Oh Hell Nawl!!! aka my ticket to hell. I love it there cause it’s not just about the staff of writers (though they do have me on my ass laughin every day) it’s about the blogging community that loves them…it’s a strange insestuous, disfunctional family and I LOVE IT!!!

My honorable mention goes to my best friend Jeremy’s blog “The Starving Artist Speaks”  (He can’t win other awards cause the judges ruled that as cheating)

Lastly…if all the aforementioned blogs aren’t enough, I hit up Stuff White People Like  and The Fail Blog.

Okay!!! So now you know where I’ve been and where you shoulda been too.

G’nite!!!

Bare with me…

Me right this secondI’m still trying to figure out this wordpress stuff…*Sighs*

I’ll write a real entry later, but for now, know that I’m in the middle of packing up my apt to move into a bigger one (yay), eatin some chicken wings, listening to a medley of Kimya Dawson (please listen…she’s hilarious), Bootsy Collins, Anita Baker, and Johhny Guitar Watson…

I’m hating my job more and more every day…

I’m about to go give a certain asshole his tie back (We had went dancing a long time ago, got drunk and I found it in my purse the next day…?)

I’m pondering the future relationship (or lack there of) between me and my ex. Trying to decide if I’m being tested. If I give the new guy a chance, he may turn out to be my worst nightmare…but if I don’t, I’ll feel like I let a good one get away. It’s like, he’s a really great guy…actually his only fault is…liking me (or acting like he likes me) too much and too soon. It’s nerve racking…*Sighs* Then I’ve got a valid crush on the coffee shop dude…like a middle school crush like, a “he said hi to me at my locker” type of crush…lol…I’m gonna get back to work…these bags won’t pack themselves.
