Wednesday thoughts

Hey everybody.  I’ve been working hard so I can get outta here early to hit the highway.

Just a few thoughts,

What’s up with white folk and vampires?

Happy Tuesday everybody!  If you’ve been under a rock, you probably haven’t noticed how much they have been promoting this new film “Twilight” as a “Pop culture phenomenom!” and have raved about it in the promotions.  If you don’t know, it’s a movie about some teenage vampire bullsh!t.  By now, you probably figure that the sources going on and on about how great any movie is is probably getting broken off by the studio in some form or fashion.  Whenever a movie is a big budget movie, they use the influence they have with various publications for them to spout off all this hollow acclaim, like “The BEST film in years!!”  or “A Phenomenom!”  blah blah blah.

Monday Thoughts

Happy Monday everyone! I know most of you feel pretty good because this week is going to be a short work week with Thanksgiving and all.  I’ll be going home for it, but my brain may not check into work at all these next three days. What a shame.

Hey, if you didn’t read Friday’s post about working out, I’d like you all to read it please.  I know a lot of people like to set fitness goals come the beginning of the year because they feel guilty for being sessile and gorging themselves on turkey, dressing, gravy, greens, mac and cheese, yams, rice, green bean or broccoli casserole, cabbage, sweet potato pie, cake, and whatever else big mama decided to cook,

Corduroy’s two cents: Working out

Happy Friday ya’ll!  Today is going to be super and the weekend is gonna be super duper!  I plan on milking all of the goodness out of it, just as I hope you will.

I wanted to talk about something I feel strongly about.  Maybe I shouldn’t have called it my two cents, because it implies that it is information that in some situations wouldn’t be welcomed.  Being that this is my blog, then I shouldn’t care.  However, I recognize that this subject is a veeeeeeeeery touchy one for women, and I think more women read my blog than dudes, so I’ll be as gentle as I can.

Teenage Love

Happy Thursday everyone! We’re almost there to the weekend, so just hold on! It’s coming!  Shout out to my main man Diddles for leaving a comment yesterday.  It wasn’t until midday yesterday that I figured out who you were.  Tell your folks I said hey, and I hope your mom is doing well.

There are a couple funny things I heard and saw this morning I wanted to tell ya’ll about before I begin today’s post:

1. So yesterday I posted about ghetto names, and not to belabor the point, I remember briefly seeing an interview with a little black girl who went 4 months without a heart, and being hooked up to an artificial one while she waited on a real one for the transplant. 

Ghetto Names

Good morning everybody!  Happy Hump Day!!  I just came in to the plantation and I’m currently experiencing plantation bliss…. I sat down, opened my Outlook, and had NO NEW EMAILS!!  That’s a beautiful thing!  Do you feel me out there??

Yesterday I was talking about Ghetto Snacks, but today I wanna talk about ghetto names.  It may be wrong for me to call these ghetto names, because really they are black names, and it implies that what is ghetto is also black and vice versa.  I know you educated readers out there know better than that, and know that my intent is not to offend you or your ghetto named kinfolk.  It’s all love!!!!

Ghetto Snacks

Good morning everybody.  Before you’re done with me, let me explain!! What had happened was….

No seriously.  I thought yesterday was gonna be a light one, cause I make it a practice not to do much work on Monday (or any day for that matter), but Mr. Charlie had some crucial tasks that needed to be done from the instant I arrived, and like a good house negro, I did my job.

Anyway, this post here is one that I did before, but there must have been some ghost in the machine that deleted it when I tried to save it.  I put so much into it, that I didn’t feel like doing the entire thing over.  So here it goes one mo gin…

Art

Good morning everyone.  It’s Thursday and I feel great!  I’ve been ironing my shirts and putting on spiffy clothes for the past few days, looking GQ and feeling the part.  

Yesterday I just happened to be doing a little exploration on one of my favorite sites, eBay, and found this “FRAMED LTD. TAKASHI MURAKAMI HELLO DOB CREAM LITHOGRAPH” for $3,800.00

I hate talking on the phone

Hey everyone!  Happy Hump Day!  I’m happy, and you should be too! Why, you may ask? Because we’re in the land of the living!! 

I hate talking on the phone.  To give it more of a poetic flair, let’s say I LOATHE talking on the phone.  Why?  Well, whenever you talk on the phone (most people I think), you pretty much have to stop whatever you’re doing to seriously give the conversation any quality attention.  I hate that.  And the thing is, more times than not when I’m receiving a call, it’s interrupting whatever I’m doing to talk to the person.  Of course when doing something mundane like cooking or maybe even driving, breaking from that activity isn’t necessary.  I say maybe when it comes to driving because based on the conversation, it could be distracting. And dangerous.  If you are talking to your mom about what you’re gonna have for dinner, then you can probably talk on the phone and drive safely (hands free of course).  But if you are having a heated argument with Bonequisha on her reluctance to acknowledge that “conversate” isn’t a word, then you may need to pull over before you hurt someone.

Sorry

I apologize everyone, I’m workin hard today.  Here’s a funny picture I found:
