Todays Moms

It is a fact that today's moms are different from our own mothers and our grandmothers. Is it true that we as parents today have become, dare I say, a bit lazy when it comes to our kids? Or is it that parents are getting younger and younger and they just don't know enough to raise children the way they once were.

Do you remember when society lent a hand in keeping kids straight, when teachers could actually hit or whip you if you misbehaved, or if your neighbor caught you doing something they'd whip your ass then send you home for your mother (who was ALWAYS home when you got home) to whip your ass .. and for her to make you wait for your father for when he came home. Shiiiiiiiiitt I remember, as a matter of fact I stayed in trouble so my behind was sore most of my youth .. lol

But on a serious note, I mention this because I notice significant differences in the way even I raise my children. I've always been firm and disciplined them the way my mother would me, and I make sure they are protected and taken care of as best I can. That being said I notice some of our young parents today lack patience, or interest in their kids. They don't want to be bothered, possibly because our young ladies somehow got in their heads that having a baby will keep the man .. you know .. the "keep a n*gga baby," but when the man is gone a mother is left with a child she probably didn't want in the first place!

Sad that most of our youth have lazy, non caring, inexperienced parents who don't care enough about their kids to do the job right, and it is a job. Raising kids is not an easy feat! I'm married with children and even I need a break every now and then because it is alot of work. But what's really going on with todays moms? Just a little something I had on my mind after seeing a mother bark on her daughter for what seemed to me like no big deal, you walk in the store your kids always want something, mine do, and you tell them no, simple and keep it moving. I had on headphones and heard this lady going off on her son, I hate to see that, I saw a lady on the bus one day who didn't seem like the mother of this young toddler, she was about 3 or 4 the lady is going on downgrading and cussing her out for who knows what, the little girl just sat somewhat oblivious as if she was used to it .. that's heartbreaking to me really.

So I say like Michael Jackson said .. if you can't feed the baby, then don't have the baby, and don't think maybe, if you can't feed the baby!

Bitchassness

I am so sick of Bitchassness it's like a disease .. I hate to say that it's a trait that I see more in men than women but it's present in both sexes *smh*, I don't know what's worse, HATERS or BITCHASSNESS .. this is some shit that I simply can not digest! Here it is 2009 and I have to deal with this shit as if i'm still in High School and shit .. I'm a grown ass woman .. in case it was not obvious! I'm tired of no life having mother fuckers falling prey to that bitchassness .. lol .. it's so sad to see our people go there .. really it is!

So i'm here at work listening to what seems like never ending drama from one coworker who can't seem to get along with another coworker .. so they've been on some real catty shit lately and to me it all seems so damn extra .. BITCHASSNESS at its best! Some people really need to get their damn priorities straight .. instead of coming to me to talk about that shit you worried about .. worry about the damn job you might lose cause the shit the other coworker is beating you in the head about might just be true .. so guess what .. the BOSS IS WATCHING YOUR ASS ... and here you are with the BITCHASSNESS running to me all day with the bull .. but guess what .. I DON'T GIVE A FUCK .. I could care less, I got my own damn back to watch!

Scenario number 2 .. how about a dude I work with is so nosy .. be alllllllll up in the latest gossip, always wanna know what you talking about and what's the haps but when it comes time to get up in his business dude shut down like nah ya'll can't no nothing about me .. but wait, ain't you the same dude that was just at the cooler with me talking about everyone who walked by ... BITCHASSNESS .. obviously there is some dirt there or some bones in the closet .. if you ask me it's the latter of the two .. lol

That's about all for now .. I have more but why bore you with the shit I can't even stand to tolerate my damn self .. if you know some bitchassness stories by all means share them .. let the bitchassness stop here .. ctfu .. carry on!

Incompetence or Plain Old Inconsiderate?

I'm trying to get my daughter to work this summer, as mentioned in an earlier blog, however my city is just as incompetent as they come, I've been running around trying to get all of this stuff done, and here we are at the deadline and I have yet to get the shit accomplished. No lie I have called the place for an appointment a hundred times, perhaps about 10 times a day this entire week .. wtf? If you don't want shit to get done or you don't want to do shit then don't get people interested and give out numbers for us to call just for you not to get back or respond .. smh i'm so heated over this!

I don't know what's going to happen this summer, everything seems to be in shambles so far, camps are closing, the camps that are open are expensive, no ones answering phones I mean this economy situation is a bit out of control and we the citizens are stuck with what's left. I don't want my daughters running the streets this summer but it seems like the only thing they will be doing!

Camel Toe & Wedgies

I absolutely hate to see someone, and this usually applies to women, with wedgies in their pants. You know the kind, where the pants are absolutely embedded in the ass of some chick walking in front of you, I hate it. It almost makes me want to check mine, or pull it out for her, it can't be comfortable .. shit it's certainly not cute! Nothing is worse than seeing a sloppy ass at that with a wedgie in it, do you honestly think they just can't feel it? I mean for the heavier ladies i'm sure that might play a factor but I have heavy friends and i've never seen them with wedgies so I don't know *smh* I have to say that I've seen this alot on skinny chicks .. I mean let me know if there's a new trend out that I should know about, because honestly when I see it, it just disgusts me .. really and if i'm not disgusted I'm smh and or ctfu .. lol either of those two extremes will typically be my response .. I know I know it's wrong of me, but I think the wedgie in itself is a worse offense .. lol



And what about that camel toe? I don't know what's worse, camel toe or ass toe .. lmao @ ass toe (that was funny). Now I don't see ass toe as often but I have seen it and in this pic especially the ass toe is there and in full effect! Again I ask is this not uncomfortable? Is this a new trend? If so I am sooooo to the left with this one!

Ephiphany

I'm absolutely not leaving anyone any time soon but I do love this song .. I heard it and was encapsulated .. thought I would share this with you. After a stressful day like I had this song makes things that much better. Being the r&b head that I am I thought this song provided the perfect r&b vibe with a twist of jazz which could be the reason it sounds so good to me. I hope you enjoy this as much as I do!

Dancing with the Stars

Keep in mind I never watch this show, however, since Lil Kim is (still on quite to my surprise) I made an effort (well not really) I just happened on last nights episode and saw her for the first time. Now that being said I do have some things to say about the show ..

1st of all .. why is Kim talking the way she is .. isn't she a rapper? Ain't she from the streets of Brooklyn like me? Now this is not to say I want her all thugged out because i'm not, I know there is a time and a place, but for goodness sakes why is it that she sounds like a Barbie doll ... and i'm not talking a black one! This bitch gets the only makeover (breast, lips, ass and who knows what else) and somehow lost herself in hollywood .. not a good look Kim *smh*

2nd .. she can dance, I saw her performance only and it was decent, could've been better but it damn sure could've been worse, at least she's out there you know! But I will say that i'm shocked she made it to the top three .. guess Lil Kim is taking that God given talent of dancing and putting it to good use!

3rd .. do people really watch this show all the time, I mean it was just a bit much for me, like I said i've never seen the show, I'd rather watch America's Best Dance Crew .. it takes me back to my younger days and I like to see that effort and drive from the contestants you can tell they're on their grind cause they be getting it in for real .. lol ..

Last and certainly not least .. despite not really liking the show I hope the best pair wins, the one thing I do admire is the fact that monies or prize won is given to a charity .. Lord knows (as a people) need all the help we can get!

Btw .. her shoes don't match that outfit .. lol .. I wonder if they were special shoes to dance in? *pondering* Your thoughts welcome!

Atlantic City

I'm heading to Atlantic City this weekend, a little girls get a way that is much needed. I go at least once a year or twice depending on my schedule but I really enjoy being able to kick back blow some money and chill at the same time .. lol it's like the mini Vegas without the flight!

I hear the weather is going to be FABULOUS .. it's about damn time .. lol it's been nasty for ever, today was quite nice but next week is a different story. Any who if I win big i'll make sure to post a blog of me virtually screaming and losing my mind from the shock of hitting big on the nickel slots .. ctfu .. it's a damn recession I won't be high rolling AT ALL .. lol! If I don't win at all ... i'll come back and bitch and moan about how I knew better than to waste money on a two day trip to Atlantic City .. lol ..

Well I hope you all have a beautiful weekend! Have fun .. I know I will!

Working Papers

So my daughter is of age to start working this summer, whoo hoo .. lol! I'm trying to teach her early how to prepare herself for the workplace, earn a living and be responsible with her funds, not an easy task I tell you trying to convince your 14 year old not to spend all her money in one day and to instead hold it for what she absolutely needs and then preserve the rest .. it seems like that message went right in one ear and out the other! *blank stare*

So here it is a few months away from the Summer and though I trust she will spend every dime on nonsense I still am excited for her to have this experience, I never worked as a teen so this is exciting for me as well. She's like up in the air about it .. lol but like I told her if you don't work you won't be getting no money .. lol .. I figured that would spark her interest .. we'll see .. and i'll keep you posted!

Tell 'Em Why You Mad!

So it's Monday and though it's a beautiful day outside there is always something to be mad about on a Monday .. for me today it's only the fact that it's Monday that has me tight .. lol! I had a good weekend and last night as I was preparing for the week, I found myself getting tight .. you wanna know why? Cause I had to come to work today. I left my kids in the house this morning, they all knocked out and i'm here working .. DAMN!

Sometimes I wish I was a teacher just so I could get a damn spring break and shit for no reason ... lol I don't even have to go no where just be off cause it's spring .. lol. However, i'm grown now and that is a distant thought or wish if you will that will most likely never come to pass, oh well.

So here I sit, mad cause i'm at work (but not mad cause I got a job to come too) but still overall wishing that I was in bed catching up on some TV I missed, or just being lazy "not working" on vacation some where .. shit can a sister get a break? lol

I'm also mad cause I got on the bus this morning on my way to work and the bastard driver act like he was mad at the world and seemed like he pulled off as soon as I got one foot in the dor .. lol .. so I get on and had to get my pass out my bag the bus is moving and I damn near fall .. lol ok so i'm being dramatic .. my point here is that some civil workers act like they hate their job, I mean it shows all over their face. I hate my job some days but I never take it out on the people I work with or the clients, it's just so unprofessional you know. Why do a job you hate? I know the market is tough right now but if you really don't like it, don't make my life miserable it's already Monday .. why make it worse!?

I think that's all i'm mad about today .. lol

Work Shit

Ok so why did I get tight yesterday over some shit someone suggested I do .. mind you this shit always manages to come from some one who is not your boss. So in a nut shell a co-worker of mine from another office hits me on email she's basically complaining that I didn't call back a contractor to notify him about something and she happens to mention that yet another contractor called her about the same! Ok fine, but WHY IN THE FUCK IS SHE TELLING ME TO CALL THEM!? I didn't answer my phone and call them back because there annoying, so I emailed one of them and called the other.

Now here's my problem who is she to suggest to me to make sure I call the contractors back? Is it cause she don't want their annoying asses calling her? I wonder, so she beefs and in anger I reply to her email but before I could hit send the bitch is on the phone, I check the caller ID it's this bitch .. so I didn't answer figuring she'd get the fucking hint that I do get busy! She calls again then replies to my nasty/nice email that I should make the contractors a priority over my boss and whatever else i'm doing .. is this bitch MAD .. I mean mad in a crazy sense .. she must be off her damn rocker .. when I see her ass tomorrow we gonna have a nice little conversation .. lmao
