Isn't that crazy when people do that ???
It's almost like they can't help themselve. I mean you'd think that they'd realize the arguing over useless points, like if I was talking about EVERY SINGLE black person on the planet would prove my point, but they just didn't want to get it. Anyway, writing for an audience like that is a drag!
So I hear you about your job. Working with people who are not on your same vibe can be trying to the spirit!!!!! Sometimes you got to just get the hell away from them!!!!! I know you travel alot and I still can't figure out how you do that part!!!!!
Yeah, girl, I want to shave my hair off! I just don't want to do it! But we'll see. I go through different phases and after I locked my hair (had locks for about 3-4 years) I realized that it is just hair and it will always grow back, and if it's not growing back fast enough, you can aways where a wig!!!!!
I'm glad you like it, it's such a breath of fresh air from the whole perm, straighten, blow dry and other nonsense, isn't it?
Hi Sabine!!!
It's been awhile and just wanted to check in to see how you are!
Enjoying these hot, muggy days?????
I refuse to go outside when the sun is up! lol
Hello all!!!
Well, in the past month I have moved, gone to Comic-Con, had a friend visit from New Zealand and went to Disneyland for a few days. WHEW!!!
How has everyone been??? LOL!!!
Hey Frodes. I though I saw your avatar!
My son went to Comic-Con. He and his Dad love doing stuff like that. I love comic books, but I guess not that much 
Good morning dear Sabine!
(unrelated to my post... the comment box background changed, I can actually see what it is that I'm typing while I'm typing!!! lol)
Anyhoo... I hope you're doing fine. I don't have a lot of free time to visit here as often as I'd like to.
Hi Frodes! Just in case you're lurking.
....oh cool, new emoticons.
Well, I just wanted to tell you, Sabine, that I stumbled onto the cutest little movie called Unbowed that I thought you would get a kick out of (if you haven't already seen it of course). It isn't mainstream though, came out in '03 at the Palm Springs Film Festival I believe. All I'm going to say is Jay Tavare! ..... you need a 'swoon' smilie.
Hey Ladake!
Yep, I finally figured out how to fix that comment box! I'm patting myself on the back
I'll definitely check out that movie. I'm always looking for a good movie. Been watching a whole bunch of documentaries!!!! And it has a cutie in it!!! Love me some eye candy!!!!!
I just watched Conan, The Barbarian. I know, I know
But girl, beautiful man!!!
I do need a swoon smilie. I'ma find me one now!
There you go!
Oh, I adore Jason Momoa.
I loved him before folks knew who he was. lol.... that man is finer than all outdoors!
And yes, right now, Unbowed is my new favorite movie. I got it on Saturday and I've watched it five times already. ....obsessed much?
lol... the lead guy, Jay, is cute but short, though his body totally makes up for any shortcomings.
Jason Momoa, is that his name? I thought it was just HOT!!!
I can't wait to "see" Jay, and see if we have the same taste!!!!
Oh my sweet Lord!
Did you feel the earthquake????
You know the area I live in. It was so extremely strong. I've never experienced anything like that in my life.
I've been in San Fran during a 4.1, but they're buildings are made to roll with the quake.
We don't have buildings like that! This was a 5.9 and my building was shaking, hard and loud!
I'm PRAYING there are no more. I can't take it.
Girl, I am sooooo desensitized, I'm sitting and my house is shaking, the head board is knocking against the wall, and my daughter says, Why is the house shaking.
I told her: Don't ask.
Why I would think that I don't know. I'm so crazy!!!! No man one can shake a damn building!!!!!! But I swear, I just dismissed it, and then my daughter said other people were saying on line that their house was shaking, and so I shrugged my shoulders and said it must have been an EarthQuake; I chalked it up to global warming.
But listen, Ladake, I'm the person who said to myself, Why is everyone running, just after the 2nd plane hit the WTC and right when the first building fell -- I thought it was a newscopter.
I grew up in a very volatile environment -- that's my only excuse!
Well girl, I almost peed my pants!
I don't like that feeling at all. It's very unsettling.
You should have seen me running like a fool trying to get out of here. Logically you know you're not supposed to run, but instead get under something sturdy or in a doorway. But by then all logical thought has flown out the window.
Awww, you poor thing
And I was over here going, why are people panicing! If it's a real Earthquake, they'd lose their minds!!!!
OMG, by the way I'm trying to find the movie you mentioned!
"is the story of a Lakota warrior and a black woman who fall in love."
Native American man, with black woman, set in the past. Are you trying to freakin' kill me!!!!
It's already my favorite. They had the "kiss" scene on youtube, but I don't want to ruin it for myself. I'm off to find it, because it is NOT on Netflix, damn it!
lol... I'm sorry, so what did you think was happening?
The people next door were having sex?
lolol
One of my friends hipped my to it. It's been on replay for the last 4 days!!!!!
I thought hte people UPSTAIRS were having sex, cause they were walking and there was all this knocking, but in hindsigh, I'm just out of my mind!!!!
Okay, my dear, I ordered it. Did you order it, too?
Now I'm going to put a lawn chair in front my mail box and grab some chips or something because it says:
Shipping method: Standard Shipping (1-2 Weeks) $4.00 USD
WTF!!!!!
I really wish I would have "found" it and watched it without knowing what it's about at all, that would have been great.
From their FB page: ""70 individuals were trained in film production during the making of UnBowed. 70% of them were placed in entertainment positions. The majority were people of color and/or women."
Gotta love that
First off... you got some freaky neighbors then.
I'm sitting here cracking up. lol
Second, yeah. I want to find it online too, only because even though I have the DVD, I can totally see myself wearing this out and then being completely devastated if I mess it up. But yeah, I ordered it.
I had actually forgot about it until I got it in the mail, so it wasn't too bad. But it is a sweet film. My only complaint is that there isn't a sequel.
But that's all I'm gonna say about it until AFTER you watch it.
They're actually my tenants, but I've never heard them before, it's just that the walls are thin, and I can hear them walking. So when my bed was hitting the wall . . . awwww, forget it! I don't think I can make it make sense
You're talking like a true addict! Already worrying about what might happen if you don't have your next hit!!!!!
I can't wait to see it . . . thanks again!
Oh, by the way, a movie I love to death and have watched over and over is The Waitress, totally different genre, but it's so funny/sweet to me. Very unconventional though.
By the way, if I find it on line I'll let you know, I can already feel my OCD kicking in big time! I'm determined to find it now!!!!!
Yes, please, pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease let me know if you find it.
Okay Chica,
They're talking about mandatory evacuations for NYC.
First the earthquake, now a damn hurricane!
Just checking in to make sure you and fam are okay and out of harms way.
I think we may just be getting wind and rain, but I'm prepared if the power goes out. Though I'm praying that will not happen.
Awwww, girl you're so sweet! :kissing: Thank you! Well, you know if the earth quake didn't phase me . . . .
I keep saying it's going to be nothin' but rain. Over where I'm at, I haven't seen anyone board up their windows, though the mayor did order the coastal line neighborhoods to evacuate.
But you know what i want to do, I want to head on out to the shore and watch the storm come in!!!!!!
I sure wish I had the DVD, since I might be stuck in the house. As long as I have electricity, i'll be okay . . . I mean electricity and internet
We're just getting rain right now. And Miss Irene has downgraded again, so hopefully it'll just be a little rain spout by the times it gets to NYC. I don't want anyone to be flooded out.
I'm not too concerned about this one. I've been experienced much larger hurricanes before. Just as long as it doesn't produce any tornadoes, I'm good.
I'm hoping power doesn't go out either. I don't know what I would do if the internet goes down!
I'm off to the beach!!! After I get some groceries, I'm going to go down so I cna look at the big waves! Wish me luck. I don't want the lifeguards to turn me away! I'm not going to get in the water, mind you, but I was watching footage of newscasters, and who are behind them - PEOPLE
Hope you had fun.
I think the stronger winds aren't going to get to you until tomorrow morning anyway.
It's a very slow moving storm.
We went to this little place that is by the bay that leads to the ocean, they had blocked all the entrances to the beach. It was nice. The big ocean and the gusting wind, no waves, but still you could feel the power of nature. I like stuff like that!
On our way home it started really raining and the winds picked up, so yeah, by tomorrow morning.
Plus my garage is flooded
Aww.... today's his birthday.
This August has been such a whirlwind of a month. I'll be glad to see September!!!
Sorry about your garage!
It's okay, it's dry now!
Did you read the post I wrote in honor of Michael's birthday?
I never got to read all these before but I am 'Speechless' .... :) ♥
So weird! I swear, I didn't do anything! But yeah, this is our bar!
Hey Sabine, how are you?! It's Pink Frosting, I hope you remember me, I left a comment on the main page. What do I have to do to become an honorory member? I've been away for sometime, but I would like my privileges back, lol. I'm still in love with your stories.
Hey Ms. Frosting!
How's grad school treating you! Well you know what they say about all work and no play, so oooooooooof course you can have access. You're actually an honorary member; everyone who was a member from the very beginning is; your avatar just shows up when you pop in though!!!!
Oooo...you already watched it!
And yes, I was getting very anxious towards the end - so I'm the type that doesn't care about being spoiled, and I fast-forwarded, thinking, if they don't end up together I'm gonna be PISSED and just stop watching altogether. And though they do end up together, I thought the ending could've been a little bit better.
But that's okay, I was very happy with everything else.
I have 4 absolutely favorite scenes. And in that movie Jay - Wakanami - is totally fine and yes, his body is on point.
Well, are you going to tell me the favorite scenes!!!!
I, too, though the ending could have been better, but I didn't want to come off as a critic
It's okay to be a critic!
I thought the ending was a little rushed. And then I was like, dang, so that's it, like....what happens after they walk off dramatically into the night?????
But meanwhile, the library, ...'you're afraid. ' 'A little. Should I be?' 'A little.' That entire exchange, and the crazy way he looked at her when she asked if he scalped them.
The...'how do keep your hair like that.'
The roof, of course.
And the last scene in the church.
Ooooo, yes, those all were great. The dialgue was simple but created that delicious tension! And yes, the look in her eyes, in his eyes, so wonderful.
I wanted him to at least beat the crap outta homeboy with the gun. There's always someone trying to mess up your happiness!!!!
Why did I have a dream last night that I was talking to you on the phone about the 12 tribes of Israel???? !!!!
And it was a very detailed conversation.
It must have been that bowl of rice pudding I had right before bedtime.
Oy, vey! Blame it on the rice! I bet we could have a long and rousing conversation about the 12 tribes of Israel!!!!
You know, I'm still waiting on that book! What's taking it so long. Did I ever tell you that i have NOOOOOOO patience!!! I'm the type of person who get's on line at the grocery store and ten seconds later I'm like
Is anyone else open?????
Sooooo n e way, what did we have to say in your dream!!!!?!?!?!?!
Was it like the Black Israelites? Have you ever seen them. They stand on the street and read the bible and interpret every three or four words in their own special way
Yes I've seen them, not in NY but there are some in DC.
But I have just been re-reading the bible, though I had stopped last Thursday. In the dream I was just trying to explain to you who they were. Who knows what I said lololol
My dreams are always so detailed and vivid. Last week while I was in canada I had a dream that Drake (the rapper, who I don't even like) was at my parents house and we were showing them slides (like the old-time slide carousel projector from the 80s!) from our trip to Paris!
I've never even been to Paris.
But anyhoo, boobalah, did they give you a time frame on how long it will take to get your book printed? Is there a limited number?? And will we get an email notice as to exactly when we can order from you?
And yes,
You've mentioned your lack of patience before.
Wow, really Ladake?
I've been reading the bible lately too!!!!! OMG, I feel so close to you right now :kissing:
Well, you know I have vivid dreams, I think you've read a couple. But that's groovy, you're lusting after Drake, bringing him home to meet Mommy and Daddy
Just kidding!!! I like Drake! I really like his latest song, I don't know the title but it goes, they know. I think he has talent.
When I get the proof of the book, I'm going to look it over and make sure it's perfect, and then I will put up the link for orders! They said it shipped last Friday and gave me a three to five business day time line. I should have waited until I got it, but I was so excited!!!!!!
This is a soft cover, but if the cost is about the same, I think I'm going to have it printed in hardcover. What do you think Ladake?
LOL!, Did I mention my lack of patience! Ugh, I'm hopeless!!!!!
Ladake, can I ask you to do something for me? Can you send me some positive beautiful energy? I'd reallllllly appreciate it!!!!!
Really? I was reading Deuteronmy through Judges. What books were you reading?
5 business days isn't that long. You'll have them by next week, yeah? That's not too bad.
And here's me sending you all the love, eternal peace and joy that your soul can contain till it overflows to those around you!
Thank you!!!! You're making me teary eyed!!!!
I was reading I Corinthians. It's my favorite chapter.
The words are just calming and soothing.
Hey everyone...
I just wanted to stop by and see how everyone is doing during this difficult time.
It's been hard watching the trial but having 2 jobs keeps me busy and I don't have to think about it too much. I hope it hasn't been too difficult on any of you.
Hi Frodes - I'm taking the trial in measures. Have you been following closely? I can't do that, because it is toooooooo depressing!
I have been cause it's a big deal for Positively Michael. We are partnered with Justice4MJ and we have to keep the investigation section going strong. It hasn't been easy but the girls there are really supportive. It makes it a little less depressing.
heeeeeyyyy.... look who's back ( i dont know for how long but im back for now... lol) i swear since i havent been on CCC, everythings been going wrong in my life lol! what is this black majic? lol!but i am soooo excited to be back, you have no idea!!!
i hope you are doing well Sabine & i hope everyone else is ok also. oh Sabine, i wanted to draw a picture of you & surprise you ( and give it to you, even though i dont know how would that work lol!)but i couldnt. it made me sad because i know i missed your birthday and i wanted to do something special for you because you truly deserve it.... well let me get started doing some major catching up... i(i most likely will be on here for the majority of today & a few more days though... because these stories kick ass!!! lol!
Hi honey!
Wow, that's so sweet that you'd think of drawing me!
My ex did a painting of me that I really treasure. I so much love art!!!!
Well, have fun
p.s. I hope your little girl is doing great
Hi honey :wave:
That's so sweet that you'd think of drawing me! My ex did a painting of me that I treasure! I so love art! You know my son is an artist -- well all of us draw, but my son really is an artist thru and thru, so is his Dad, and me, I just dabble!
I don't know how much you've missed, but I think you have a few chapters to play with. Have fun
p.s. I hope your little girl is doing great!
wow, im just checking in and seeing what would happen if i logged in with my FB account.. i guess, its still the same lol
wow, I want to talk about something too, haha, but what ? I'm still a newbie.
I LOVE YOU EVERYBODY !!
