I already know I'm being totally ridiculous

...but hey, at least I'm not waxing poetic about how I'm ready to be a mother, starting today (and looking for William to do his part).


Anyway, I just found out that one of my favorite people in the world is engaged. Bring the count up to a round 5. Some of those people are simply old aquaintences from high school - I'll care the most come reunion time (4 years --- oh my god--- from now). But one wedding I'm in, and the other I will most definitely be attending.

The thing is, coupled with my (I believe) genuine excitement for her (considering we ALL knew it was coming - even heard it from her boyfriend's mouth), I cant help but not be so happy. Maybe even a twinge of jealousy.

There, I said it. But only a twinge.

Why? BECAUSE I AM NOT READY TO GET MARRIED TO ANYONE! Especially right now. (lol).

So I really am just being crazy. I'll settle for blaming Spelman/Mom/American society for bringing me up to expect to have it all...PhD, long ready for marriage relationship, being involved on campus, working out, and having fabulous hair. And I'll settle for having a few of those secured, and working on the others...


Its Spring Break, and I'm blogging....whats wrong with this pic? Nothing!! Having a wonderful time in the Azalea City (maybe I'll take some pics...theyre everywhere!). Adi!

Random Acts and 5-Finger Discounts

So I'm sitting at Krispy Kreme waiting to order 2 original glazed doughnuts (like a moth to a flame i'm drawn to the hotlight - lol). And I see someone loading a truck or something in the back. Needless to say a black guy walks over and motions for me to roll down my window. I do (i know, it was pretty risky) and he essentially asks what I'm ordering and offers to get me 2 dozen for $5 - a percentage of what they would normally cost. Of course I decline, becuase what the hell would I do with 2 dozen doughnuts but eat them and be sick, but I pulled up the speaker thingie (and subsequent window) smiling. He didnt have to offer to get the doughtnuts for me on sale. Or to go in back and get my 2 doughnuts for free. Idunno what made him come to my car...but I appreciated the offer even if I am totally able to buy my own doughnuts.

Like Jamie said: You still got it girl...
