That's what it sounds like when you live in Atlanta. I went to see it this weekend. So... SPOILER ALERT!

I guess I knew people go through mess but GOT DAMN. I guess if you've never been abused you ain't been through nothing. I swear to all mighty God that I did not know men would talk to a girl all nice and sweet for 2 weeks, beg and plead to take her out to dinner and have a great time with her. Kiss her all sweet, and beg and plead all cute for a second date, then rape her. LAWD! I had no idea. You can rape somebody for free. You did all this wooing, for why? That was so upsetting to me. Now this movie got me out here side-eyeing every man that I've ever went out with. I can thankfully say every time I've said no (and meant it) that he (whoever he was) listened to me. I'm glad I say this because I usually think if someone is being all nice and seemingly genuine that they aren't faking it. I'm not a good liar. I'm going to be more careful because I am a tease and so far I've been really lucky.

I did not know negroes was throwing babies out of windows. If I was going to cry at any point in the movie this was the scene. Crystal should have known better than to let that fancy ass car pull up in front her house. She wasn't thinking. Poor children. They are honestly better off dead. It's a shame some people can procreate really. She should have left him so long ago.. I was so pleased to see Gilda tell her that she needed to take some responsibility in their deaths. Children need to be protected. If daddy is an ass, mama must protect them and vice versa. She did not do her part. I know I have more backbone than that. I don't give a damn you went to war. I work everyday and raise yo kids. Negro please! I have no sympathy for that sorry ass man talmbout "why wont you marry me?" She at least had enough sense there. When she was trying to clean the sidewalk I was done! I couldn't even imagine. I understand why she didn't want to live.

So Girls are still getting abortions in low down dirty places. Coming from a never been pregnant person who's an adult now and nobody would side-eye me if I turned up pregnant, nor would it ruin my life, yet I still don't want no babies. As a teenager as scared as I would have been. My ass would have went straight to my mama. She always knows what to do. She would have been pissed and I can guarantee I would have been slapped its better than getting a non-sterilized abortion. I said I didn't want THIS baby, not babies ever?! There are so many options, official abortions at a clinic, adoptions, and keeping the baby. I can't tell you what I would have chosen. I just can't believe girls are still doing that.

I loved the crazy mama. I feel a lot of people have crazy parents like that. I loved Thandie's character too. I know a plethora of chicks just like that. And I hope I look as amazing as Phylicia Rashad for the rest of my time on earth!.

Homosexuality in the Church

I live in Atlanta. Homosexuality is as common as a drive-by shooting. Open homosexuality that is. I'm from VA. There are probably as many gay there. They just aren't out because a lot of the time you can't be. I'm so proud of Atlanta for the acceptingness of the LGBT community. Its the straight up bible belt here! Why cant ole mid-Atlantic Virginia get it together?

Anyway I've started going to a new church that is full, lleno, packed, straight up crowded with gays and just people in general. They congratulated a lesbian couple on their marriage this morning. Everybody was so excited for them. I didn't see one ounce of judgement. I also noticed that the demo tends to be 20-40ish. I always felt that at my old church in RVa that it was the older folk that kept us from being progressive. Eventually one day we will be the old folk and hopefully we can change along with the youngins.

I'm glad it seems like being gay is no longer looked at as something all about sex. That's why so many people have problems with it. I don;t know anybody who has a problem with love. Homosexuality is no longer a classified mental illness. I'm glad gays in Atlanta have a home to worship in because New Birth is NOT that place. Oh and the manly lesbians stay out in full force, you know I have a slightly lesbian spot for all of y'all. LOL.

Pics I Love!

Alzheimers?

When is the age of onset? Can it start in your 20s. Maybe my ass is just forgetful as all get out. It took me 2 weeks to remember to buy some AAA batteries. I just bought some AA's after a 3 month stint without them. I have been meaning to buy this composition book all damn semester. I often go to the store reciting what I;m going to buy and then I get in the bitch and I look stupid. I don't remember why I came here. I try to make lists but I cant remember to save my life to do that either. This is why folks live with the 'rents so damn long. They wouldn't have you toilet paper less or without juice. And why can't I get me a damn lunchbox so I'm not starving up at school all day. Oh I know because I forget.

Give Folks A Little Power...

I cam back to school this semester and like every semester up til now something changes in the library. This year they decided to get turnstiles. They made us all get new cards so they could be swipe-accessed. Before they turned them on in mid October they wanted us to practice using them. I told them NO! I can figure it out why am I wasting my time. Fake Swiping my card. What the hell? They didn't like it. But if you just run through real fast what are they gonna do. So they finally turn them on. The first time I did it I guess I swiped too fast. Security was all "uh you have to swipe slow." now looky here. Never do you swipe slow with any card anywhere. at the checkout line you must swipe fast and forceful.

Anyway I go in the library a few more time showing them my card and swiping sloooowww. So this morning I decide to hell with showing them the card. Security like always was chatting and laughing it up at their hourly wage positions. They told me I had to show them and then swipe! I hate them so much. It's so unnecessary. I cant wait til I get outta here. And yes I felt impassioned enough to blog about this.

Good Grief!

List!

Don't do any of these things to me. I will be pissed

1. call/text me 12, 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 am in the morning because you keep trying to smash. sir. its not happening. go away. If I liked you I would tell you.

2. Use my plate and leave it in your room for days on end. I have a set I'd like to keep together. My plates are pretty. I know. Use the mis-matched house plates!

3. Sit next to me on the bus and figdet and nudge me. Do all your makeup a la casa. just sit still. This is not about kids its about grown ass women. And when we get to five points please get up promptly.

4. Play hood music from your phone. I girl on the bus played that "make it rain trick" song , produced by my buddy on the bus on her low quality cell phone for 10 minutes. It was like a 30 sec sample. LOL

5. mother nature, if you see my hair is fly as all get out. why would you turn the humidity up to a level 10 and then make it drizzle.

sigh.

For Lauren. Nobody else reads this but her.

I will try to attempt to write about whats been going on since the school year started. It has been utter foolishness but you already knew this. Most of it happens outside of school but you know how the kids in the AUC are. SMH. recently I've been going thru the "its the teachers fault in failing" thing with my MMA counterparts. I have all A's and I earned then. The scantron didn't mess up for me, you fucked up and you wanna blame the prof with 200+ students. Get outta here. They really get on my nerves 95% of them and I hope that I never have to deal with them anymore after graduation. I never wanted to say that. I thought I would make lasting business relationships with these people but they suck. I can usually see the good in most but they are just selfish and continually looking for an easy way out.

Lots of people annoy me outside of school. The Homeless. I cant feed myself and you too. Why must you sleep horizontal on the sidewalk. That is for my walking, not your resting. Stop eating out of trashcans in front of me. I understand but its disgusting. seeing you sip out of somebodys mcdonalds sweet tea cup is enough to make me swoon. And if you know you stink stay away from me and stay out of the direction of the wind. I am sad often over most of your situations especially one lady in particular that the bus rides past everyday. She lives on the bus stop bench with all her stuff in a shopping cart. She has no regard for decency anymore. She will change clothes and do other private activities out on Moreland Ave. I can't help myself, cant help you and if I did I would not donate to you but to a credible org. sorry

My roommates. They really arent that bad. They have weird hours. Up at 5am coming in loud at 3am with a full clique of ppl. They eat trash. I know I had a run in with banquet dinners but never like this. And the hot dogs never stop being bought. And you already know that they leave their broken relaxed ends everywhere and there weave hair all over the place. I have yet to have to embarrass anyone with their trifiling ness but I was close this last wknd. Don't leave stuff in the bathroom you don't want anybody to find, that is all.
