I Wished I Was White Once…

I’ll probably catch a serious flogging for this later, but at one point in my life I wished I was white.
I had a very bad experience once because of my skin color, no, not that experience — my then boyfriend’s parents told him they didn’t like him dating me because I wasn’t “light enough” (they [...]

I like other people’s blogs

Hey all. I know it’s not Friday any more but since Teli’s blog is still open for FFAF I thought I’d play around.
It’s wierd blogging on someone elses blog. It feels like I’m doing something I shouldn’t be, like going through their underwear drawer…
But we won’t go there
Anyway, blog on people!

A Phoenix

Since I’ve been working my way down the FFAF blog roll, my brain is starting to die on topics. Thank goodness teli left some topics. PHEW.
If you could only pick one, would you rather be a sea creature or a bird - why?

I am the procrastinator!

Time killers? Erm, at work killing the time between 4 and half past when I leave is usually spent with lots of sheets of paper. They all have 6-digit numbers, and so you first separate them by the first two, then the third, fourth and so on, that generally kills time, however putting them away [...]

FFAF and No More Late Nights For Me!

**THIS POST WILL STAY AT THE TOP UNTIL FFAF IS OVER**
Well, I think I’ve finally learned my lesson - no more late nights! I didn’t get my butt to bed until 5am (and no I wasn’t partying - more like working…)
And thanks to a kick in the bum from Luka - I am now opening [...]

I Need To Blog More…Sort Of

I need to blog here more often. I’m sure my semi-loyal readership is ready to unsubscribe from my feed and leave my blog to the wayside…but I assure you, I am alive and well - just swamped.
I have been working on another project and I am working very hard on my other websites - I [...]

Warning Signs of Being Slightly Stalkerish

Okay, the title is a little sarcastic. These are, in fact, warning signs of being overtly stalkerish.
1. You call the person’s cell phone and when she does not answer you leave a 6 minute message (to the point where her voice mail system hangs up on you), then you call back and pick up the [...]

The Reason I Don’t Eat Goat

I realize I have a bad habit of befriending animals - especially animals slated for dinner. Being the true Jamerican that I am, while in Jamaica a while back I befriended a goat. I named the goat, I played with the goat and I thought it was the coolest thing that I found such a [...]
