And The Beat Goes On...

Hellooooo...is anyone out there?

I've been gone so long I doubt anyone will even read this. So much to tell I don't even know where to start. Let's do this Teej style.

LIST TIME!!!

Career

1. Since my last post I've been promoted twice. (Mo' Money, Mo' Money, Mo')
2. Still not where I want to be though. (Womp, Womp)
3. Broads at the job still trying to figure me out..."cause I'm just cool."
4. Corporate politics involved in my everyday bidness.
5. I play the game well and still manage to KEEP IT REAL BITCHEZ!

Love

1. Dated a cat
2. Dumped a cat after 6 months
3. As usual I really didn't like his country ass.
4. But I played a role...he believed it.
5. Now hollering at an ex from long ago.
6. Not sure if I want his ass either.
7. Even though for many years I thought I did.
8. Can someone say JADED?
9. But at least I'm not angry and asking the same old question most single broads ask, "Where are all the good black men?" LOL!
10. Summer is almost here...let the games begin!!

Adventure

1. Went to the Caribbean for the hundredth time. "I can't get enough of your love baby."
2. When I'm there I feel like I could give up my Urban dreams (Range Rover, Fly-ass condo, and Ice) for a nice spot on the beach selling dolls and art made of palm leaves.
3. When I get back to the city I forget the sand and then the $$$ takes over. I want, need...
4. I go out with the crew bi-weekly if not weekly.
5. I've gone from never drinking to being a social drinker/butterfly.
6. A good cigar never hurt nobody, right?
7. I'M BUYING A MOTORCYCLE IN JUNE!!!
8. I want a Hayabusa, but I'd probably kill myself, "you'll shoot your eye out kid."
9. I'll probably get a 750 instead.
10. Other than that I guess I'm chillin.

Sorry there's no real humor in this one. Once you've fallen off the horse it's hard to get back on in the Mad Real World.

WICKED!

So I finally checked out Wicked this weekend. And it was...GREAT! Now wait, I didn't love the songs as much as I loved the songs from the Color Purple but to be honest the Color Purple is engrossed in the ways of my culture. So of course those rhythms sounded better to me, however I really enjoyed Wicked.

The storyline was really interesting and makes the Wizard of Oz look like a half ass told story. Also the things they were able to do live on stage is amazing. I've never seen a show with some many visual effects. It of course gets four stars from me but folks have been saying that for years. I'm just one of the last to become hip.

Who knew a story so innocent as the Wizard of Oz could be turned into something so Wicked in the mad real world.

Jill Scott Rocks Chicago

My sisters and I went to go see Jill Scott perform at this charitable event tonight and that woman tore the house down. I've never been so happy to see a "celebrity" before. Like a punk ass I almost...almost cried. I was just that happy to be in the same room with the woman I've listened to and admired for years.

The harmonies, the music, the vibe were all perfect except for this dude who kept hollerin out that Jill was about to make him nut his pants. GROSS!! Get a room buddy, he of course got cussed out and told to "shut the fuck up!" Anyway I can stop smiling and I can't wait till she comes back!

She has turned this fan into a fanatic in the mad real world.
