First off nice pic...damn it I dispute # 64....Very interesting though...I don't think I can make a list that long
I wore braces for 3 1/2 years. I am now obsessed with teeth. I notice other people's imperfections rather quickly.
I feel like I'm allergic to kids too. You cussed out an 8 year old? YOU are out of control. When is your reality tv show debuting again?
that milk - cold cereal thing you do is just plain off.
Please why those 3 actresses are your imaginary friends?
What are the 4 plastic surgeries? What are the chances you have the operations performed?
"and we can pump, pump
all through the night till the early morn"
Well daggone! Nice to meet cha! I didn't read all hunnad and some odd tidbits, but I know enough for now! LOL Be back later!
hahahahaha (partially). i read the first part of this standing up. then my mouth fell open. then i took a lunch break. then i came back to read more. started laughing. then my eyebrows shot into my hairline. there was so much i don't even know where to start. i think my fave fact is the cussing out the 8-year-old or maybe the crackhead. hahahahahahahaha!
Nice Pic Miss A...lemme just ssay I skimmed the list and will read it when I get home...Nice to meetcha tho
I just thought of something...Do your online folks know more aboutcha them some of the blockheads you see erryday....Hahahaha...mine do *snicker* I am reserved with folks
WOW stalked by a man and a woman...that's serious plus robbed by a crackhead I wonder if he was surprised that you found him....lol
Nice pic...Grrrrr.
I had Mono when I was a senior.
Clorox should be available at any public place.
Thanks for stopping by my blog, girl. I appreciate the love.
You are a trip tho! I HAD to add ya to my blog list so I can check up on ya to have a laugh or two...
Im So feelin you on
#25,26,28.. oh and 88!
LOL! I am too lazy to make a list like that. I'm bored too. I should be working, but I'm not. LOL!
You are a trip, there is too much similar between us based on that list! Although you have definitely had some unique experiences. You got robbed by a crackhead? How did you find him/her? I am sure there is a good storie behind that?
I hate other peoples' kids too, somedays I don't really care for my own that much! I am sure I will think of some more questions!
beautiful photo! i loved your answers. very candid.
i've got one question. what does it feel like to be in love?
Miss A- I took everything done. Hopefully now those freaks will leave me the hell alone.
I see that we have a few things in common, one of them is the braces.
I have been meaning to do a post like this to, but I just have not gotten around to it.
Have a great weekend!
Great post!
I don't think I could reveal 50 things about mysef..i'm shady like that:-)
but here's a few.
i was a vegetarian for five years and woke up one day wanting a steak and never went back.
I moved all across the country to live with someone i'd never kissed before. (never again like the jews)
i don't like chocolate and only eat soy cream (the soy version of ice cream)
I have a thing for cuban men...totally random, but very very true!
ha ha good times!
Damn....I only like 25 things about me...when I did something like this a while back.
btw...long legs can come in handy.
Look at you, lookin' all cute. Oh, what a diva!!!
#72: I say gon' slap a bitch, she had it coming, anyway.
#84: Me too, aren't we the Shiznit!
You are just way too funny! :)
I'm trippin' on your obsession with Queen Latifah. I've never heard anyone speak of her that way. I'll never forget when I saw her in concert in Savannah when I was in college. This was in 1990 when she first sat on her throne. I love the queen too, but you REALLY LOVE her!
By the way, I've always thought that the queen would play a really good Pearl Bailey if they ever decided to do a story of her life. Anyway, I learned a lot about you. Nice post!
MISS A Im glad I am the key behind the post..um but u went for the gusto on this one..ya ass is crazy...lmao U posted a lot....102 girl u wild
I don't have a question just a few compliments> The first is that you're beautiful and the second is that I enjoyed your post.
jay-hay-zus christ that was long!
aight you lost 33 pounds last year! incredible. before and after pictures. I simply cant believe it (yeah i'm an old cynic).
love the video. one of my favourite groups back in the day.
GIRL! Did you see Flavor of Love this weekend? Rrrrrrrrrrroflmao! Pumkin straight spit in New York's face! Girl! GIRL! I tell you one thing! Flav shoulda let New York whoop Pumkin's ass! Girl!
number 101 slightly disturbs me. the one where you are unconmfortable when there are large groups of Black people in your neighborhood?!?!? Thats a lillte f'ed up.
@ epsilonicus-well dear, in the neighborhood i currently live in, the colored community (generally speaking) lacks class, couth, home-training and overall-good stuff. regardless to the fact that i grew up on a very secure, quiet cove nestled in the burbs, i now live in a very urban area where knee-length white tee-wearers who yell outside of their windows and cars are all the rage. standing at the bus stop, slanging all the naughty rocks....they litter, they cuss, they just make me nervous...and being that i have had a couple of bad run-ins with said group...i just ain't feelin them!!! i minds my own...i think the hood dwellers are f'ed up cuz nothing positive is being accomplished in these groups that congregate on the corners and such, just turmoil and degradation-so i say BOO! to them...dang, i just made it sound like i live in a crackhouse or something :-D but i do reserve the right to be uncomfortable cuz either they are doing illegal biznaz, or hollerin at the "hos" that go by or planning their next heist....all things that i just can't get with. i dont subscribe to the complexion connection, and it just so happens that the ones 'round my way are fools, just those ones, not all coloreds...just cuz we all brown, dont mean we all down (for good, that is)
@ epsilonicus - also, thinking i could be comfortable around my fellow browns, slapped me on the ass...i got robbed, car all violated, and harrassed....that also contributes to the way i feel. and i thought it was all good, but ugly knows no bounds
Now that you explain it, I can understand why. You gotta qualify your statements sometimes. People can get confused.
