Right Or Wrong
By Eric Roberson
I wanna love you I wanna kiss you, And when I miss you, I really miss you I wanna give it, give it to you Whether it’s right or wrong baby, If you feel it then why you hide it Or if you like it then why you fight it I wanna give it, give it to you whether it’s right or wrong baby Verse 1: Thought about you as I wrote this So much to say hard to show this ...

Caught up
Got me feelin it…. :)
1) Hang up and call back
2) Call when I don’t even have anything to say.
2.a. “Your breathing sure is nice today”
3) Realizing that when I’m mad, I only stay mad cuz even that feels good.
4) Laughing at Will Ferrel jokes for hours on end.
5) Planning Spike Lee Joint movie nights
6) Reading Black Militant books together… plotting

Who hasn’t played a good ice breaker?
I know we all remember those college dorm days full of Never Have I Ever which led to a disastrous drinking game. But on the less damaging side, I’m thinking…
To think realistically is to desire to be mediocre.” Your dreams should be...

I like to put my hand out on the table sometimes.

Or Fold.
Either way. I go all in.
Phasing
Moving into a new phase of your life is so scary. I’m realizing more and more how terrified I am. Seems like when I begin to make a major change I make a bunch of smaller changes too.
Just accept me as I am.
A work in progress.
Man… I wish I were a superhero.
All- Natural Recipes for your Skin
strawberricurls:
Since going natural, it has made me take a step back and look at everything i use, not just my hair. So i started to look around for a way to get rid of my dry skin and now i no longer use or buy lotion! I make my own exfoliating scrubs, facial mask, and lighten cream. Exfoliating scrub:

Two Books I'm Reading
The Help by Kathryn Stockett
and
Wench by Dolen Perkins-valdez
Both chronicle the roles black women have played in the birthing of this country. From being the mistresses of their slave masters to being the maids and mammys to those same slave owner’s children and future generations.
Should be interesting. I’ll let you know what I think.

Love, You don’t know how much I’ve missed you… These past few years that we’ve been apart have been crazy. It was like my heart had committed suicide and was waiting on me to die with it. I started to question you then...
I know you hate when I...
Act impatient for no reason at all.
Stop listening so I can push my point.
Talk when you’re talking. (I do this accidentally)
Talk too much. (I do this cuz I can’t help it) .
Micro-manage some of the things you do. (I’m only trying to help.. really)
Say “no” when really it’s “yes”
….That’s about it. Overall I’m pretty awesome....

The Fire sign in these people is enthusiastic, energetic, and optimistic. People born in this period always aim to get above the common herd of humanity, and they themselves in turn are naturally attracted to strong personalities – in fact, they will forgive any fault in the people they like so long as they have individuality and purpose. They are usually generous, kind, and openhearted, they...

I can't hide who I am
I think it’s pretty funny the perception that people have of me, or even how I sometimes catch myself acting. I could never be that girl that ran around talking about how my degrees and my new Birkin bag made me someone special. Even when I have all that stuff I will not have it in me to be a snob.
You know why?
You can take the girl out the country but you can’t take the country out...
He gets it...
He knows how to make me laugh. I need men to understand how important this is. Of course, he knows how to piss me off, but it can never last. You know why? He has it. He has the ability to make me laugh, make me smile, and I don’t think he’d ever do a thing to make me cry.
He gets it.

Lunchtime in your office
I imagine that we’ll both be pretty big time.
You in your sexy suits with the corner office.
Me, I’ll be the modern day revolutionary changing
the way future generations grow and learn.
But that won’t stop lunchtime in your office.
The elevator ride that seems to last forever.
The hallway littered with pictures of you.
This magazine cover, that newspaper clipping.
You and...
