Me: Baby, could you come help me?

Mistah: *yells from the other room* What's wrong?

Me: Can you just come in here.......shit (mumbled under my breath)

Mistah: What?

Me: The tv remote is not working...well it is but the volume doesn't work on it anymore. Like I can't adjust it and it's annoying me because it's too loud.

Mistah: Have you tried reprogramming it?

Me: Yes aaaaaaannnnnnnd I changed the batteries but it's still doing the same thing. I even tested it with the remote in the den (it's the same kind because of our cable boxes). This TV ain't even six months old and it's already acting up. If you can't get it to work, pack this shit up and put it in the trunk because it's going back to where it came from.

Mistah: *looks at the remote...... looks at the TV and moves a magazine out of the way to unblock the sensor......test the remote........hands it back to me........smirks and snickers*

Me: So!!!!!! Oh and thank you!

Between You and Silly Person*

Silly Person September 30

me and tim* is not cool like that,so please keep his updates bout his problem off my home page,thanks

AR Gal September 30

Was this really meant for me? I have no clue what you're talking about.

Silly Person September 30

his update was under your name,just saying...and we're friend on facebook

*me thinking trying to figure out what the devil this fool is talking about*

AR Gal September 30

I'm trying to picture this in my head. I tagged him earlier this week or last week...can't remember. At any rate, I can't promise it won't happen again (i.e. that I won't tag him in something else). If it is that troublesome to you it can be prevented by simply hiding my posts. :)

For the record it wasn't anything bad, it was actually something he and Turkey* are doing to help better our hometown. With all the murders B'ville has experienced as of late, I would think people would be excited about steps being taken to make a difference. I hope you contribute to the cause. I will be.

Silly Person September 30

Ok,u is my friend sweetie.


I honestly thought he had me confused with someone else when I first saw the message. I was quite tickled when I realized it was meant for me and he was so for real.

People take this FB ish way too seriously.

Reality TV Shenanigans.........................

Teen Mom

I fell asleep on it last night about half way through. No worries, that's what repeats are for. I saw Macy(ie\e\whatever) contemplating moving to Nashville to be closer to magilla gorilla. Was I the only one screaming nooooooooooooooooo!!!!!???!!! Did ya'll peep how he was quick to shut down the idea of him moving back to Chattanooga? RED FLAG!

Let me stop but for real....RED FLAG!!! Finish school first home girl (especially while you have a good support system in place), then worry about trying to make it clap for the monchichi.

I didn't see much of Amber or Gary (thank goodness). All of that hollerin' raises my pressure! Speaking of, I sure could go for a burger from The Hop in Little Rock today. YUM! I'll be a good girl and wait until Friday (my designated 'eat out for lunch' day). If you're ever in town, stop by and have one (the one on Cantrell Rd. by Mc'D's NOT the one in the Rivermarket).

I also missed the much hyped blow up between Mrs. Coke-head (aka Catelynn's momma....oh don't tell me ya'll don't think she's on the pipe) and Catelynn.

Farrah was pretty boring this week as far as I could tell. I guess there's not much that's interesting about trying to hustle up rent money. Well unless you're trying to raise the funds on the pole or the cor'na!

US Weekly magazine did a story on the girls a few weeks back (you find these things out being bored at work during down times at work). I only got a chance to read Farrah's. For those of you that don't watch the show, the father of her child died a couple of months before the baby was born. So sad. BUT she also admitted that they weren't on speaking terms before his death but she thinks he would have been a good dad. *coughRyancough* Hmmmmmmmmmm...........perhaps.

RHONJ REUNION (BEEYOTCHES)!!!!!

Do not bring up my family!!!! Do not bring up my family!!!! ARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHH!!!

Bwahahahahahahahahaha Who watched it? Who saw it? Who can't wait for part deux??







I found this hilarious cartoon parody clip of the RHONY Season 3 reunion

Early morning dialogue……………………

Mistah: Do you think they sell promiscuous olive oil?

Me: What?

Mistah: Do you think they sell promiscuous olive oil?

Me: Negro, what the hell are you talking about? And who is they?

Mistah: The stores… do.you.think.they.sell.promiscuous.olive.oil?

Me: I don’t know. What the hell is promiscuous olive oil?

Mistah: Well, there’s extra virgin olive oil so I was just wondering if someone sells promiscuous olive oil.

Me: I…….you…….just stop.

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!

The Villa Marre

Here are the pics from my drive-by past the Villa Marre yesterday. It was neat seeing the house but truth be told I was kind of underwhelmed. It always looked more glamorous on tv. Perhaps it was the lack of sunlight.....yeah that's it. In any event, enjoy!

Front view

Side view

And now for a bit of entertainment



And just for S&G's

Lookin’ for that good stuff……..

Since Mistah’s job is transitioning to LR we commute to work together on the days that he works in the ‘big city’. The main road to get to his job currently has a lot of construction in progress. As we got closer to the stoplight to make the last turn, we noticed a construction worker crossing the street. Not too far behind him was a scraggly piece of trash petite young lady who, apparently, was scared shitless by the sight of my car approaching her body walking slowly across the street.

Sitting at the stoplight, we observed Pedro walking to a large SUV and opening up the door to the backseat. By the time the light turned green, Peggy Sue had caught up. As we turned the corner, we witnessed Pedro climbing in the back seat. I look at Mistah wide-eyed and Mistah looks back at me laughing. I checked the rearview mirror to make sure no one was behind the car and slowed down.

Mistah: What are you doing?
Me: I wanna see if she gets in that truck!
Mistah: Woman, just drive.
Me: Shut up.

Sure enough, Peggy Sue hops her tail back there with him.

Laughter ensues in our vehicle…….sexual pleasure in theirs.

As Mistah got out of the car, he asked me to promise not to pull up behind the truck to try and take a picture with my camera phone. He claims that I’m always trying to snap something or another. *sigh* Be that as it may, I didn’t pull up to try and watch (that’s just gross) BUT I did go really slow as I passed the front of the truck on my way to work to see what I could see. WHAT?! LOL I only saw his head…..looking down…..no sign of Peggy Sue. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out the rest.

And now for a musical selection…………………

Just when……..

…..I think I have nothing to blog about, Mother Earth works her magic and VOILA!

I ventured out to a beauty supply store in Mexican Central (aka SW Little Rock) today. They are the only place I have been able to find that carries raw black soap. That’s pretty sad considering you could go to any other major city and find it (relatively) easy…..or at least I think so. It’s also pretty sad that I work with a lot of African people and not one of them could tell me where I could go to buy some. Boo. Anyway, the downside is they only carry it in small sizes (about $2 for .5 oz) but I figure I can grab a lot of them at one time and it would still be cheaper than buying it online and paying for shipping.

Moving on.

So I grabbed my supply, headed to the cash register and proceed to have the most intriguing conversation with the young lady that checked me out.

YL: Did you need help finding anything or were you ready to check out?

Me: *smiles* Oh, I’m ready.

YL: So, do you use this all over your body?

Me: Yeah, face and all.

YL: Really? I tried it once but broke me out.

Me: Oh no! Well you can’t tell. You have a beautiful complexion.

YL: Yeah well it wasn’t anywhere you could see.

Me: (wondering where the hell this girl could be talking about….her ankles?) Oh?

YL: Yeah it was down there *points to her nether regions with her finger*

Me: Ooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

YL: I mean it was real bad. My grandmama had to call the medical emergency number and everything because it was puffed up like this (yes she really held her fist up)

Me: Oh my! I don’t blame you not using any longer. Well, thanks and have a nice day!

Now at this point, I’m laughing but she was too so it wasn’t totally awkward. I didn’t realize when she asked if I used it all over my body she really meant allllllllll over mah body. I just assumed she meant exposed skin. LOL Oh well, at least I learned something new today…I think.

Why you over there lookin’ at me?

My co-worker annoys the Sh’Nikes out of me. Every time I get up from my desk, she breaks her neck to see where I’m walking. Every time I walk back to my desk, she just stares…..intently. Now I just avoid eye contact with her and keep my eyes focused in whatever direction I’m going (but I can still see her looking in my peripheral vision). This behavior is strange (to me) as my personality is such that I really could care less about what anyone around me is doing.

You’re going to a meeting? Do I have to go? No? Great! Have fun!

You have a visitor at your desk? Good for you! I can’t hear what you’re saying over the music in my headphones anyway.

You’re trying to sneak out early? Great! Have loads of fun!

You diggin’ a booger out of your nose? Ewww but just don’t flick it over here or let me catch you eating it ‘cuz I’m tellin’!

That reminds me, I have a short story about that.

As long as you are not a disgruntled employee and refrain from coming into the building to shoot ‘em up at the OK Corral then we’re good.

This chick though…..she’s just different and stuff. She’s been in our group for almost one year but has been with the organization for maybe three or so. She was placed here during the re-org that happened last year. One experience I had early on really helped shape my opinion of her.

I was working on a report and needed no distractions so I sought refuge in one of the empty conference rooms on the opposite end of our department’s floor. During a break, I visited the lady’s room and went to my desk to grab a granola bar to snack on. I saw her sitting at her desk so I spoke.

Me: Hey Sh’Nike

Sh’Nike: Hey AR Gal, I missed you!

Me: *strange look on my face* Girl ion't even know you Ummmmm, oh. Well, I’ll see you later.

(I must point that I had only known this chick for maybe a month up to this point)

As I walked back to the conference room, I heard heels clomping (loudly) on the floor. I turned to see who it was and saw her little head peeking around the corner watching me to see where I was going. I turned my head back around and headed to the stairwell to go up one floor and came back down in one of the side stairwells to get back to the conference room. Like I said I needed no distractions and the last thing I wanted was her following me to find out my top secret location. LOL Now in my head, I was thinking….seriously WHO DOES THAT?! In my heart I was thinking, this beesh is CRAZY! I laugh about it now when I tell that story but really….WHO DOES THAT??!!

Mase - Lookin' At Me (1998)

This just in....................

This reporter on one of the local networks cracks.me.up! His voice, I can't describe it, but it always elicits the same reaction from me....a fit of giggles! Here are some video clips of him. Be sure to stay tuned up through at least the 23 second mark....comedy! TJ Holmes you are not my dear sir....*swoons*

Fun fact: TJ Holmes used to work for one of the local stations in LR before he moved to CNN. Hmmm, so that wasn't really fun...just a fact.

Tap, tap, tap………

I was accosted by a man the other day while pumping gas at S.a.m’s C—lub. Thinking back now it’s kind of funny but if I may be honest, it totally caught me off guard when it happened. I was sitting in the car playing around with my phone waiting on the gas to finish pumping when I heard him. I just assumed it was the attendant trying to tell me something.

Tap, tap, tap

*me looking up from the phone to find a rather rotund man standing outside of the passenger side window*

I cracked it just a nudge.

RM: Hey how you doing Miss lady?

*oh lawd here we go*

Me: Fine

At this point I noticed he had his AR Dept. of Corrections uniform on.

RM: Well I just noticed you pumping your gas and thought you looked kinda nice.

*KINDA NICE???!!! Negro I’m FOINE!*

RM: You gotta man?

Me: Yeeeeeeeep

RM: Aww, well he shol’ is lucky. Can I give you my card in case you change your mind about that?

*pump the brakes* Corrections Officers have business cards??? LOL Who knew?

Me: Neeeeerrp

RM: Oh well, my name is Carlos. It was nice to meet you.

Me: *rolls the window up*

Let me holla at cha!

While perusing FB just now, I came across the most crazy sh*t one of my high school classmates posted. The name has been changed to protect the slightly touched.

Just in case you missed that, he holla'd at himself. I can't....................

Drop down low and sweep tha flo' wit it!

The mother of an infant daughter wearing her first lacefront wig writes: “It’s never too early for my baby to start looking glamorous like Beyonce!”
Mom said she had the wig custom made human hair to match her own lacefront. “I wouldn’t be caught dead without my lacefront and my baby won’t either!” she wrote.
But is that adhesive glue safe or gentle enough for the child’s baby hairs?

Riddle Me This...............

I usually see this ad several times during the day on the web and the same question always pops in my head. Why should I be compelled to purchase this product when the end result is showcased inside a set of charbroiled lips? I can't focus on the whiteness of it all because of those things.


For the record (and for my own sanity), I have chosen to overlook the white/butter popcorn tooth color comparison.
