Get out and enjoy, because tomorrow isn't promised!

Ms. MFN's Corner: Cheater Cheater Pumpkin Eater

Welcome to 2010 realism, where no one gives a care in the world about the meaning of a relationship. And when I mean no one I really mean NO ONE. We all know about the celebrities who find adultery cool and infidelity effortless and we also have friends who are currently in painful relationships getting cheated on or who are partaking in cheating ways. This is partly the reason why I believe this is not the season to fall in love, and why I am comfortable on my Singledom Throne. While on my wonderful journey of Singledom, I do live by standards and morals and there are certain things that I just would NOT do under any type of circumstance. I have hit that bump in the road, however. One thing I vowed I never would do has reared its ugly head and my angel and devil has appeared for their first appearance upon my shoulders. Living my life of a single young lady, one of my vows is to never become the assistant in infidelity…well folks, the dilemma of a taken man has presented itself to me.

Something I do NOT condone is cheating. I will not help facilitate cheating matters. I have never, and will never be called the ‘side girl.’ I have the world’s worst guilty conscience and am a very strong believer in karma. Plus I know how it feels to be the naïve girlfriend and I would never wish such hurtful heartache on anyone.

But then came the co-worker. A simple joke turned into countless hypothetical situation conversations. You know the “What ifs…” and the “If I did this, would you do that…” convos. We started playing games to “make the work day go by.” Games like This or That (Kitchen or Bedroom?) and Fill in the Blank (The color of your thongs today are ____). I justified my actions as not wrong because I wasn’t the one doing the asking. Figured since he was asking me the questions, I would feel less guilty & blame couldn’t be put on me. But the more the conversations lasted, the more my mind wondered and I knew if my mind was wondering, his mind was wondering. I eventually let him know that these conversations have to be nipped before I throw morals out the window & tell him meet me at my place after work (almost tempted on a number of different occasions).

But this is not the reason behind this post. I have a deeper question then what is right or wrong. My co-worker seems to believe these conversations we were having, and the thoughts that he is having, and the occasional touching…is NOT categorized in the cheating category. Now please…let us dwell on this.

Cheating implies the breaking of rules. When you decide that you want to be exclusive to one person and announce to the world that you are taken, there are certain things that you cannot do. Telling someone what you would do to them if they had the opportunity on a constant basis, in my book, is cheating. It is only the beginning of a downhill battle. Conversation leads to curiosity. Curiosity leads to happy hour dates after work. Happy hour dates leads to ‘Oh no! I had 1 too many drinks!’ And we all know what happens after alcohol is added to the equation. If you do not want your significant other know what we talk about at work, then the conversations need not be had and I dub you a cheater.

But when do you really cross that line into cheating? Is it okay to have thoughts about being with someone else? Is it okay to tell that person ‘hey…one day I’d like to have sex with you?’ Or does cheating not come into play until the actual act is in play?

Either way, this is the #1 reason why I am sitting mighty high and pretty on my Singledom Throne. ‘Relationship’ is clearly just a fickled word that is thrown around just because people want to say they belong to someone. When they start to grow that old meaning back, you know…the Bill and Claire Huxtable type love/relationship…someone let me know. I’ll put myself back on the market. Maybe.

So I did it....

I made that move! Myles and I now live in Tobaccoville, NC with my aunt and cousin. We Skyped my mom this morning, and she was happy that she was able to get everything straight and situated with it before we left yesterday.

Of course, I've moved to a place where I don't know anybody, but my cousin goes to school not even 25 minutes down the highway so I'll have him to entertain me when he's not super busy!

Anywho, I just wanted to blog about my "big" move!! Happy Thursday everybody

*xo

SN:: I really feel some kind of way & it's a good feeling!! People may call me dumb, but I'll wait as long as I need to

Lyrics of My Life Right Now......

Bring Me Flowers
-Hope

I haven't got a clue if you're the one.
But i like you.
And ohh i like how you make me feel.
I want to do this right.
Don't want to waste this night.
But, im drowning.
Drowning in your love.
Bring me flowers and talk for hours.
And ohh i like you,
And ohh i like how you make me feel.
Kiss my face,
Your warm imbrace.
And ohh i like you,
And ohh i like how you make me feel.
Im a little scared to hold you close.
Cause i just might never ever let you go.
Caught up in your smile,
Im happy as a child.
But im still drowning, drowning in your love.
Bring me flowers and talk for hours.
And ohh i like you,
And ohh i like how you make me feel.
Kiss my face,
Your warm imbrace.
And ohh i like you,
And ohh i like how you make me feel.
Your heart cares for nothing, everytime.
And im just takin', takin' you in.
Caught up in your smile,
Im happy as a child.
But im still drowning, drowning in your love.
Bring me flowers and talk for hours.
And ohh i like you,
And ohh i like how you make me feel.
Kiss my face,
Your warm imbrace.
And ohh i like you,
And ohh i like how you make me feel.
Bring me flowers and talk for hours.
And ohh i like you,
And ohh i like how you make me feel.
Close my eyes and dream for miles.
And ohh i like you,
And ohh i like how you make me feel.
Bring me flowers and talk for hours.
And ohh i like you,
And ohh i like how you make me feel.
Kiss my face,
Your warm imbrace.
And ohh i like you,
And ohh i like how you make me feel.

September Already?!?


SoD x2:: Listen - Beyonce;; Wake Me Up When September Ends-American Idiot

I can't believe that it's already September, before I know it I'll be planning a birthday party for my main man! He'll be 1 in January!

So what's been going on in my life?? A lot, so to say. Last year, as some of you may know my mom got really sick, was in critical condition, and for the entire latter portion of the year was basically home bound w/nurses coming to visit & basically reteaching the bottom half of her body how to work again after two major surgeries. Well in July 09, I was interviewed @ Methodist University [for a position that I would eventually get offered, yet because of my honesty (being pregnant) was taken away before it was officially given to me] I met some pretty cool dudes & the ones that had significant others at the time, I was able to met them as well. Well one of these dudes is pretty awesome and he's back on the market.......I'll just leave it at that :)

BUT, Myles has been with his dad all week & last night I broke down because I miss my little booger. It's so quiet without him around here making noise & trying to pull down plants, or crawl around and down the hall to see where my mom & I are and what we're doing. I really do appreciate the fact that he's able to have somebody to go with while I pack up or things this week & prepare for this move to NC!!

Soooo excited about this move, for so many reasons. God has allowed us to be able to move w/o having to worry about paying rent or any major bills. We are moving in with my mom's sister & her son. He's so excited to have Myles come live with him. He often says he is going to teach Myles everything he knows! He's 10 years old and is very smart, I'm happy that Myles is going to have another boy around him that he'll be able to spend a portion of his life close to him. Myles really does love his big cousins & looks up to them already (literally, too!) I'm so excited about the things that are going to be happening this month....I have faith!

On a different note, this year will be the 9th Anniversary of the September 11th attacks. Time really does fly doesn't it?? I still remember where I was when I heard the news, freshman in high school, just finishing lunch, going to 5th period. My English teacher, Ms. Biddle, who's is just a ray of sunshine, had a serious look on her face when we'd gotten in the classroom. She informed us of what had gone on then we went on with the lesson plan for the day ending a bit early so we could listen to the radio. I personally think that hero isn't the right word for those that not only sacrificed their lives on that day, but also those whose lives were taken. Hero is more of an understatement, a word that fills the blank.....but if I could think of a "better" word to describe them all, it would definitely go right there.

These next few weeks will be busy, so I don't know when I'll be able to blog again. I'm supposed to be moving September 11, but some things have come up, so who knows if that'll still be my moving date. ANYWHO, love conquers all......remember that!

B-L-A-H


SoD:: When A Woman's Fed Up-R. Kelly

On behalf of all the women out here, I think for those of us that are single/talking to somebody, we're sick of being compared to the person before us.....they're your EX for a reason....you'd think it was simple enough right? But apparently it's not && I'm SO confused about it all.....

I'm sure men know they're not over their ex, yet they "test it out" to see if they are. Go on with the next booskie, wife her up, then say they're not completely in the relationship b/c they still have feelings for their ex? Go jump off of a cliff & I'm sure I'd be by your side before your ex would. Especially if SHE broke up with you and 3 weeks later started talking to somebody else.....after almost 3 years she can just move on like that? She wasn't feeling you in the first place......#realtalk.

"Your past is called that for a reason. Look towards the future".....maybe this ex will be your future, but right now, don't waste my time talking about you care for me & all that jive just because you think it's what I want to hear. Keep it 200. This is 2010, women are a lot stronger than you think. It's hard and it hurts to give your all only for you to be selfish & act like a bxtch.

C'mon son! You and I BOTH know you can do better than that!!!!
......seriously though, for my readers, this isn't only something that I've been through and I know it. We all go through it. It's about time that we try to prevent it from happening. That's why so many of us are single......Single is fun, but it's not supposed to be forever. Think about it.

So shout out to all the dudes that have done this to a chick, step your game up and be a man. Move on. Live life. Make mistakes. LEARN.


But on to a brighter note, I'm SO excited about things to come. Moving to NC next month with my aunt and cousin. They're just as excited as I am. I truly think the only person who isn't too thrilled about it is my mom. She keeps telling me "You don't know for sure if you're going to move. You don't know what could come up" I'm hoping something comes up in Winston-Salem b/c there's NOTHING in Richmond that I am benefiting from. Myles and I need a change of scenery & I think moving into the woods will do the trick. Fresh air, big yards, country life *I'm a little bit afraid of it* shall be our new scene. But enough about me and my boo, go on with your lives!

Happy Tuesday bishes!

Hot Shiz!!

Saw this pic and I swear it made me wish I was one of them, doesn't even matter which one.....Gah! This is the sexiest image of them I've ever seen, seriously! Whew!

Sheesh, I envied her at first for being with my man, but now I applaud her. Hate the way she sounds when she talks, but she is DEFINITELY a bad, BAD bish && we all know Kanye is just a genius! This picture is too hot for words.....Got Ham!!!

Baby x 3

SoD: Baby-Justin Beiber

So today has been very chill. I'm still missing my phone *hurry up Thursday* but I'm happy!

Ju-LIE


SoD:: Free Your Mind-EnVogue

It's already July 11--people say to you when something isn't going your way "when the time is right, it'll work out for you". I'm SO sick of hearing that or things of that nature.

I'm sick of being in my mother's house with my son. I want it to be Myles and me. JUST Myles and me, with maybe a roommate in an apartment or a house that we're working on getting. NOT in my mother's house. Love the woman, but oil and water just won't EVER mix! Well maybe I should't say oil & water because we're just alike. So, too much water in the pot makes the pot overflow.....yup, that's A LOT better.

Anywho, what's up world?!? Hope the people I know that read this blog haven't given up on my long spells of not blogging. I think people should get paid a good salary while looking FOR jobs and if you're a stay at home mom, you should also get a good salary with AWESOME benefits. Being a stay at home mom is one heck of a job for real!

This is a late night blog so it'll definitely be ALL over the place and there will be lots of caps to let you know what I really want to emphasize on. First off, Myles and I are both sick, it sucks, but it's life. I'm just not really used to being sick, so taking care of myself and an infant can be tough at times. Then, my phone is OFF.....a blackberry is called a crackberry for a reason. SMH!!

Random thought/question:: Should I feel offended if a guy is talking to a chick who isn't that pretty on the outside & he's talking to me too?? (Yes, that was a bit mean, but that's just how I'm feeling right now--bish ISN'T cute to me & I will give a cute chick props if need be, no homo)

I'm thinking about either going on a diet or ordering some diet pills from China that my friends sister used & she lost A LOT of weight. This fat thing has gotsta go! SO over it--I lose a little weight, get my Brazilian butt lift & I'm as good as new.......even though I know the fellas like a lil meat on the bones these days, I'm not quite where I want to be. Maybe lose about 50 lbs & I'm good! Just so I can fit into a wider selection of cute clothes, yup! & because it's healthy to haha

Another random, I have told this dude like 23 million times that I want nothing to do with him & he tends to drag me along because he KNOWS I allow it & I let him go, haven't talked to him or anything, but I want to add him on FB & talk to him SO bad......temptation is a bad bish, really she is......so props go out to her

So Carmelo Anthony & Lala Vasquez got married today.....they took their time. They were engaged for a MINUTE && I don't blame them! I want to be engaged for like two years before I get married. I want to really se if the dude is THE ONE for me. N*ggas these days be on some other stuff and we just cant have that maaaaan! But anywho, I think I'm out of topics & randoms to discuss at the moment---so #thatisall :o)

hit me up on twitter @laruhn or skype:: ruskles

God Bless!

WTF when I google "July Graphics" only things that come up are for the 4th of July....ummmm that's over with Google, sheesh!

Guess Who's Back?!?


It's ME snitches!!

I've been gone for a few....celebrating birthdays and such :)
I'm 23 now, whoo hoo!!

Anywho, before I get started I wanted to tell you three things I learned while celebrating my birthday down in Atlanta....

1. Before a celebrity asks you if you want a drink, and they do something you want to do, take the opportunity to network......
2. Floyd Mayweather is ignorant
3. Don't regret anything you've done, especially where people don't know you!

(I will take the time to explain each of these!!)

So with the first lesson I learned, as I stated before, we (we being my girls and I) went to Atlanta to celebrate my 23rd birthday! That Thursday night, we went to this awesome club called Opera, and we were in VIP--since my friend knew a promoter & it was my birthday celebration too! When we first got there, of course the first stop was the bar. Everybody got their drinks then as we're standing there, I feel somebody tap me with a little force on my back. I thought it was one of my girls, but none of them said they'd done it. So then this handsome man starts laughing and says "It was me".....I initially had no clue who he was, then my friend whispered to me that he was Nephew Tommy from the Steve Harvey Morning Show. (If anybody reads this & they don't know me, my dream job is to be an on-air radio personality) He bought us a round of patron shots & then me and my girls thanked him & walked away. STUPIDEST thing I could've ever done.....the next day, I woke up, with a sore knee *hahaha, I fell later that night in Opera* but I was beating myself in the head asking myself why I didn't take the chance to network....I'm still beating myself in the head as a matter of fact. So as I'd stated before, when you meet somebody in your field, NETWORK first, drink later :)

I think the second lesson is self explanatory.....Floyd was having a party at one of the clubs down in the A and he claimed he was supposed to be throwing out $40,000. (We went, but didn't stick around to see him or his money, club was TOO hood) But as he was on the radio, he just made no sense and sounded like a complete fool. Ugh, money just doesn't fix some things with some people huh?!? Shame!

Third lesson, is something we should all know. While this may sound like I'm kind of contradicting myself from lesson 1, it's true. The past is the past, and we only live once. I mean I know a handful of people down in ATL, so if I'd wanted to get buck nasty, I would've done so and not regretted it at all because it's MY life & I do as I please.......counted my lucky stars and kept it moving!

I loved it there but really missed my son too! Happy to have his bright toothless smile back in my life :o) Hopefully, he'll get to experience the things I've experienced when he gets older because I can say I've done a lot and I'm proud of it!

Well, that's all for right now!

First Day of Summer :o)

ToD:: Summertime-Fresh Prince & DJ Jazzy Jeff

It's the first day of summer, June 21, 2010! Yay, two days until my birthday....3 days until I'm in ATL with some of my main chicks! I'm too excited. Raleigh has been kind to me while I've been here, but I'm ready to get to the dirty south ;)

Today has been pretty chill. Got to chill with my baby boy and I loved it. He's just so happy and cheerful. Some people complain that their kids cry all the time, mine only cries when nobody is talking to him or when he's hungry. Hopefully that's a sign of a chill kid as he grows older.

Yet on to some other things going on in my life! One of my best friends is making dinner for me her and her sister tonight....yay!! Also, my son's father is taking me to buy me a few outfits tomorrow (an early birthday gift since I'll be going to take Myles to my grandmother's house ON my birthday....I always end up driving somewhere on my birthday aaahhh!!) But I think it's going to be a pretty good birthday overall. I'm going to surprise my mother with an early birthday dinner since I'll be out of town (her birthday is 3 days after mine). She and I both will be out of town, we never really spend our birthdays together lol, sad but true.

Tomorrow, we're planning on going to the pool....so maybe I'll take a few pix and post them for y'all to see! Sorry this was posted too late, but have a great night!

xo*

Thank you for being a friend!



















....I don't think I'm going to blog about celebs anymore. I may have a little snippett of something that's going on but I don't think I wanna do that. Why? Too many people are already doing it, plus not too many people read my blog soooo what's the point??

I'm going to blog about my life & the people in it. I'll try to get back on daily, but as I'd stated before, times are hard & I REALLY need to find a job...for me & so I can continue supporting my baby boo :)

Before I go on an issue we should all know about, I just wanted to say you don't have to have a lot of friends to have fun. I have a good handfull of friends and when we get together & party, we have a lot more fun and a lot less drama then the million girl march friendships have.....the pic I posted was from last night. We partied at Hi5 (in Raleigh, NC) and had too much fun!! Now on to what is on my chest....

A SOCIAL NETWORK is just that....nothing more nothing less. So many people get caught up in the world of Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, and all of the other millions of networks out there. I don't understand why people try and get really crunk nasty online, but are the total opposite in person. Be who you are NO MATTER WHAT, be it internet or personally. Ugh! I just wanted to get that off of my chest because no matter what at the end of the day all you have is you. I just witnessed one of my really good friends go through some twitter bs that ended up off of twitter for no reason.

If you know me, I'm a go hard or go home kind of person. If I have something to say, I'll say it to you personally, then put it out there that I've told you (if I feel it's something that can be put out there). No need in faking the funk. It will get you NOWHERE in life. I mean maybe my opinions are out there and I may sound like I'm insensative, but it's me. Hate it or love it. At the end of the day, those who are there for me are there for me and I have my son with me as well.

Onto something else, I can't believe that it's almost been a year since the death of Micheal Jackson & Farrah Faucette. (sorry if I spelled it wrong) What a difference a year makes. We've also lost Gary Colemen and Rue McClanahan....sad days for us who have grown up watching reruns of Diff'rent Strokes & Golden Girls.

This time last year I was in Jersey preparing to come home from a wonderful pre-birthday weekend in New York with some of my best friends. Couldn't do much b/c I had my little bun in the oven, but a year later I must say his father and I have had some issues, but overall, couldn't be more greatful to have a man who loves his son and will put almost anything to the side for him.

(SN:: There was just a fire in the apartment complex, so I was just gone for what seemed like forever!!! Thank God for the men & women who risk their lives with any type of dangerous job)

Right now, I'm watching the American Dream: The Jackson 5 Story, I love it to death!!

So maybe I'll come back later, maybe I won't!

I really want to blog while I'm in Atlanta for my birthday b/c I'm sure that I'll have PLENTY to blog about! Hopefully I'll be partying with the celebs like I did the last time I was in Atlanta :)

Anywho, Happy Father's Day to all of the fathers out there who take care of their kids (and the mothers who have double duty as well)

God Bless you all (I know he's truly blessed me!!!)

YESSS!! Enjoy :o)

Eh??

SoD::: Money-O'Jays

For you 2010 Graduates, hope you didn't graduate w/a degree in any of these majors! These are the Top 10 Worst-Paying College Degrees (according to Yahoo's job link)::

10. Drama
9. Fine Arts
8. Hospitality
7. Education
6. Horticulture
5. Spanish
4. Music
3. Theology
2. Elementary Education
1. Social Work

Once again, if you've been under a rock since Sunday, a few new vids have premiered--and of course, I have them for you!



(Kanye did a way better job directing this one than Drake's first video!!)

&& rumor has it that Miss Gabby Sidibe (aka Precious) is becoming a diva??? (not in a good way either!!)
At the MET event a week or so ago, a lot of reporters were coming up to her trying to get interviews & asking questions and she kept blowing them off and telling them to come back in 5 minutes because "she was busy" also people wanting to commend her on what a wonderful job she did in Precious & her response being "I guess I need to say thank you".....no ma'am! You give some people an inch, they take a yard. SMH....just as fast as she got on the scene, I'm sure her divatude can get her erased from it as well!

ANYWHO, I'm really excited to go see Just Wright this weekend! Hopefully it won't be sold out like Our Family Wedding was......well at least it's good that people are coming out to support Black films!

As far as local news, there have been A LOT of floods on local roads because of pipes breaking....I'm gonna need Richmond and the surrounding counties to work on that like ASAP!!

Also, Governor McDonnell will be revealing a new law apparently later on today that reflects the murder of UVA student, Yardley Love. She was killed by her ex-boyfriend, and apparently they had a relationship full of domestic violence that wasn't a secret....

In my opinion, a REAL friend would've told someone way before now of this, that way they could both get help, and she may still be alive today.....so if you know anybody that's in a domestic relationship, TELL SOMEBODY!! #thatisall

RIP Ms. Horne


SoD:: Stormy Weather



Lena Horne died Sunday (May 9,2010) at the age of 92. She was the first African-American actress to sign on to a long term acting contract (which she did with MGM). She is well known for both acting and singing. She will be missed!

She was such a beautiful woman who paved the way for SO MANY actresses && actors......

Feliz el Cinco de Mayo!

SoD:: I don't have one in particular, go listen to a live Mariachi band or make a tasty margarita w/top shelf tequila in honor of the Mexican's Independence Day :o)

Feliz el Cinco de Mayo!!

















"Why Don't You Love Me" - Beyoncé from Beyoncé on Vimeo.


I think the video is gonna have to grow on me....but on another note, Solange is awesome!! I think she's better than Bey! (Little Sis wrote the song for her big sis) #teamsolange :o)


Ummmm I never wrote anything about the fight either did I?!?
IT WAS A WASTE OF $$$!!
I was going for Sugar Shane,why? Because was the underdog in this fight. I wasn't happy w/it at all though....no blood, no punching somebody and they fall....NONE OF THAT! I mean c'mon, they shoulda took it back pre-Ali for this fight and gone 18 rounds. For the sake of those who paid for it......if you've been under a rock though, Mayweather won, by a huge amount of throws so yeah.


Also, my boo Wale has a new video out....I'm really lovin is album btw!
(My lover Mo put me on to him way back when we were freshies @ Peace College)
Check it out && tell me what ya think!


Well that's all for now!

O_o Say Word.....


SoD:: Tears Dry on Their Own (Amy Winehouse)

Hey y'all today I'm just doing celeb stuff, it's really juicy today!

So I'm going to start off w/what you should've already heard about......

First off, Sandra Bullock and her continued situation. If you've been under a rock, basically she's been a victim of the Oscar Curse--cheater hubbie causes the filing of a divorce. She spoke to People magazine and also reveals that she and Jesse *cheater hubbie* had adopted a baby from New Orleans back in January. Sandra told them that she is going to raise the little boy on her own, as a single mother. He's too precious!!!

A lot of my friends had a problem with the fact that the baby was black....WHO CARES?!? He's a cutie pie and he is being rescued from the foster system. Some people were ignorant to the fact that he was from New Orleans because they're used to SOME famous couples only adopting kids from other countries (cough, cough Brangelina). Sandra adopted him from the USA--which is something else I applaud her for. This woman is one of the best actresses around right now, so versatile with her acting skills and she is holding her head up and staying strong even though Jesse did her dirty. Keep on keepin on girlfriend!

THEN....last night, The Hills premiered its newest season on MTV.
I don't watch the show, but this clip has surfaced, of course, for everybody to see. The clip is Heidi revealing her "new" self to her mom....clearly mama doesn't like it & has NO problem telling her daughter the truth. Now THAT'S the kind of mom we all need to have!!! (I know mine is truthful and has no problem hurting my feelings)




Also, this morning I was up w/Myles and I saw the ka-yutest 3 little old ladies on the Today Show talking about their new show that premieres tonight....Sunset Daze on WE TV @ 10 pm. It was described by Al Roker as Jersey Shore meets the Golden Girls....we'll see!

A lot of Glee fans are getting upset w/the fact that American Idol has run over by a few minutes for the second week in a row. Why do they care? Because it cuts off the end of Glee, therefore they aren't able to see the entire show.....if anybody is as much of a fan as me and you saw everybody tweeting about the "white girl singing a song from The Wiz", here it is! Enjoy!!


And if you were one of those fools who thought Bobby Brown was dead, he's not....so get over it!!

#thatisall folks!

Chris Brown is in THE building....VA Stand Up!


So Chris Brown is going to be heading a Haitian benefit concert in Richmond on May 15 at 7 pm!

Tickets aren't that expensive and can be found online at the VCU Siegel Center website (http://ev9.evenue.net/cgi-bin/ncommerce3/SEGetEventInfo?ticketCode=GS:VCU:SCE10:32:&linkID=vcu&shopperContext=&caller=&appCode=) , the VCU Siegel Center box office, which is located at 1200 W. Broad St, Richmond, VA 23220. LiveNation.com also has tickets available!

Like I said ticket's aren't too expensive, well to me this is a reasonable price for all of the guests that are said to be coming! Tickets range from $30 - $60.

Guest performers include Keri Hilson, T-Pain, Ryan Leslie, Trey Songz, and Mario.

I've seen all of them in concert, and I wasn't disappointed, therefore I'm supporting them again! Well actually continuing the support of Haiti after the earthquake.

April is National Grilled Cheese Month!

HAPPY GRILLED CHEESE MONTH folks! In order to celebrate this delicious month I laid out some tips in making your boring grilled cheese sandwich into a mouth watering scrumptious delight.

  1. Add a mix of cheeses! Don't just slap on two slices of American, but spice it up with Pepperjack and Swiss. A blend of cheeses is delicious and always makes for a better sandwich than plan ol' American.
  2. Butter it up! Don't be afraid of the butter…butter both sides of your bread and lay it on THICK. When you go to grill, bake, or sear your sandwich in a pan it adds a nice, rich taste. And if you are worried about the fat that butter brings, margarine is a-okay.
  3. Honey Wheat Bread! Honey wheat bread is DELICIOUSLY HEALTHY and a step up from plan white bread. Or you should also go for deli select thick bread; the more cheese you use, the thicker your bread has to be.
  4. Accompany it with tomato basil soup! My all time fav! Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup will NEVER steer you wrong. And if your April is warm, then swap out that soup for a nice light fruit salad. Delicioso!

Hope these tips helped in making your Grilled Cheese Month a memorable one :o)



Ms. Mfn's Corner


Dear Ms. Mfn,

I have a good friend who I met in college and she's been adopted as my sister from another mister who just stays ashy. Yet, I know that she does some grimy things to her so called "friends". It's never happened to me, but with this new guy I'm sort of talking to she's hinted that he's cute. She's really into black guys and recently I'd gotten an e-mail from one of her best friends stating that she'd slept with her now ex boyfriend.

I decided to stay out of their business, but I did keep that in the back of my mind. Also, she went on a vacation with a few of our other girlfriends last year and they came back telling me some crazy stories of things she'd done while they were down there. Again, I stayed out of it, but the acts stayed in the back of my mind.....I'm just really concerned that she's going to go after this guy I'm talking to now. She's already sent him a request to be his friend on Facebook and I just put a picture up of us. That sort of really sent off a red flag to me!!!

What should I do?!?

Thanks,
Confused on the definition of a Loyal Friend

Dear Confused on the definition of a Loyal Friend,

Let me first school you on LOYALTY. The definition of loyalty is being “faithful to one's oath, commitments or obligations.” We all misconstrue and assume that all of our friends have to be loyal to us, when in actuality the only person they have to be loyal to is themselves. So with this harsh fact, you must know that this so called friend of yours is NOT LOYAL TO YOU! It's called being realistic. Welcome to realism.

With this found new realism, it sounds like your friend's only true interest in life is something that belongs to the opposite sex; a penis. She has history of not being loyal to her best friend, so why assume she'd bare you any slack? Especially since you stated that she already commented on the fact that he's handsome? Here is what you do in your new realistic world …

  1. Tell him to NOT accept her friend request. If he likes you enough, then he will listen.
  2. If you and her are really friends, tell her do NOT send him a friend request. There is no reason for them to communicate. At all.
  3. And if the friend request is already sent, and he already accepted it, tell him to delete her.

And it is as simple as 1, 2, 3.

Life is an experience. Learn from it.

Ms. Mfn {that's MUFFIN to you}

TGiF

Happy Friday y'all!!

Today's SoD:: Tardy for the Party-Kim Z from RHoA (Real Housewives of ATL)

News from the 804::

James Poole (known as JJ) was found shot to death last night in a playground....here's a clip from a local news station featuring his mother's plea to find his killer

http://www.nbc12.com/global/category.asp?c=151146&clipId=&topVideoCatNo=15149&topVideoCatNoB=135440&topVideoCatNoC=136187&topVideoCatNoD=136183&topVideoCatNoE=154626&autoStart=true&topVideoCatNo=default&clipId=4728925&flvUri=&partnerclipid=

If you're from the area, or not and know anything about this homicide, PLEASE help out! Call Crime Solvers with ANY tips//leads you may have.

Also, Lt. Governor Bolling is back from Italy after being stuck overseas due to the volcanic ash cloud hovering a good portion of Europe.....I really could care less though (that's just me)

**That's all for local news but I'm about to go on a little rant about some things that have been going on nationally**

First off, I don't believe in abortions. Point blank.

With that being said, I hate to see selfish women who are going around just having sex and whoring around with whatever and whomever they want, without using protection. If you know that you're going to be a whore, USE PROTECTION. I mean I hate seeing cases where children are neglected and/or killed because of the fact that they have either been abused or they are with somebody who doesn't care about them. It hurts me so bad. There are so many women in the world that go through adoption because they aren't capable of having children of their own. So if there is a woman out there who knows she won't be capable of taking care of a child, just give it up for adoption.

I know it would be better for you both.

Second, what's up with all of this bullying and sexual assault going on in middle schools and high schools? I'm not that much older than the kids that are dealing with this stuff now, but really though it's just crazy.

One of my good friends from college recently sent me a text saying that her little sister, who is in high school, got jumped by a group of girls and she was also sexually assaulted. This wasn't the first time it had happened to her at this school either. If it was me, I would've been really pissed off if the same group of kids has attacked my child more than once. I'd be trying to get them expelled, really. I mean think about how these types of things makes the kids feel. The little girl who not too long ago committed suicide because of the fact that the bullying from her peers had gotten out of control.....IT'S SAD AND SHOULDN'T BE HAPPENING.

But I also blame the parents. Why? Because there has to be something that they aren't doing which is causing these kids to come to school and feel like they need to be dominant in some type of way. Usually when a kid is bullied, the bully is lacking something.....so I'd also advise that the school would make these kids that are bullying go to some type of counseling b/c this just isn't right!! If it was my kid, I'd be one pissed off parent.....and you REALLY wouldn't like me pissed off about something dealing with my child.

*steps off of my soap box*

I want to share this with y'all cuz I just bout died when I saw this::


Why they have to repeat it in slow mo though?!? TOO MUCH!!!

Anywho, I don't have too much more to say.....it's after 9 PM on a Friday....

xoxo.
I'll try and blog this weekend, but if I don't, y'all be safe!!
