On My Mind.

Thinking of sitting here ... looking at the view ... with someone special.

Clear Stuff.

So we're all supposed to be drinking 74fluid oz a day of water.
If you can't deal with your tap water n wanna try something else ... you got to try Voss and Bling H20.

So Bling is strictly for the Diva moments ... and I don't buy it often ... but Voss is the best tasting water you can find ... I'm so in love.

Home.

LOL, had to post this video clip from Absolutely Fabulous because it reminds me of home and has me dying laughing.

LORAC

OK, gotta rave real fast about LORAC ... their make-up is so damn creative when it comes to the colors and products.

Today ... wearing ... "For the Love of Money" eyeshadow duo. Perfect khaki greens to compliment my outfit.

Justifying My $20 Toothpaste

OK ... so ... excuse the garbage-ey picture ... but I have to justify my use of Denblan. I'm always coming under fire from friends, lovers, family for using a $20 toothpaste ... but y'all should know Darphin products are the secrets of the stars ... mhmm I SAID SO lol. But seriously I've known many a fashionista, socialite and celebrity swear by many of their products and Denblan is no joke. So try it ... you might just like it. Plus it's got that wholesome oldschool SoHo look to it.

Things I Hate.

1. Taking off my shoes at the airport ... I have size 6 feet ... do you really think I've packed explosives into my Louboutins?

2. McMansion Developers ... don't get me started. A mini-mansion with no backyard, no fence, about 3 ft from your neighbors house and only room for an above ground pool. Classic. Why don't we just build a home off the McDonalds dollar menu.

3. Pennies ... they build up in the bottom of my bag and make it heavy, then eventually I get around to emptying it out and it looks as if I've been stealing the change from Las Vegas fountains.

4. Mediums, faith healers and clairvoyants ... lets just put them under the grand title of "con artists"

5. T Shirts with awful catchphrases on them. Lord. I have been guilty of having them. But anything that causes me to walk into something in the street trying to read the fucking paragraph on someone's t shirt is just WRONG. Banned banned banned.

6. People who don't eat with their mouth closed and smack their lips - This should have been number one but I cannot be bothered editing.

7. TV's in taxis ... they make me nauseous.

8. I hate not having the time to be artistic anymore ... and the fact I read People magazine.

9. People with no social graces. Know how to act in certain situations. Or I get upset.

10. People with no drive or motivation ... people who just "settle" ... at least be about SOMETHING.

(** 11. THE WAH WAH WAH of college music ... whenever I step into urban outfitters their in-store soundtrack makes me want to slice my own wrists**)

2nite.

It's just past midnight ... and I just finished walking foxy with a friend. ... wearing ... Juicy Couture black sweats, havanias, hair all sleek in a bun ...the air outside feels so fresh and so good, Fall is finally almost here. It's that cold night air that makes you want to bundle up with someone ... lingerie on and a big blanket to keep you both warm ... skin to skin. mhmm I'm getting chills just thinking about it.

Tonight my ex called me and asked me how I felt about her going on a date with someone.
Although it feels strange in a way that she would be dating someone other than me ... I really don't have a problem with it. I just want to see her happy ... and the individual she has been talking to sound grounded and about something (going to school, no kids etc).

ABC ... Broadway ... Love it.

I am a an interior-ho ... LOVE anything to do with decorating my home, a home, someone elses home etc ... at the end of the day HOME is where you come HOME to. You've got to make it your sanctuary from everything on the outside.
So seeing as my mum is visiting from the UK we headed over to ABC home and carpet on broadway ... ok so granted you have to be willing to drop paper in there, but it is so worth it.
They have EVERYTHING you could need when it comes to the living room, bedroom, bathroom, etc. Gotta love it. Be sure to drop by there sometime ... x Luv you x

**Currently wearing Da-Nang cream cargo pants, wifebeater, my rock, Chloe paddington bag (gold n black) and gold Jimmy Choo flats**

What ... "I Love Money" ... mhmm that show on VH1 or MTV or something.
Who ... my own favorite critic
Where ... YouTube.Com

My B.F.F. showed me her ex-camera-mans new "piece of work" ... n yeh it is a "piece of work" alright. Firstly it features this female ... I say female but that is clearly debatable (so says the modeling world too) called Sabrina. Firstly I cannot stand "try-hard" comediennes, they are just the hardest and most painful to watch. It's like watching an episode of Flava of Love ... watch me while I crucify myself with embarassment LIVE n DIRECT.

So ... firstly yes, me and this chick do have a history. Let's take it back ... picture it ... early Summer in a recording studio in Midtown Manhattan. Me ... wearing light brown Maharaishi cargos with the chinese dragon on the back, white wifebeater, Armani denim jacket with low collar dtail, and some silver jewelled Blaknik's. Hair tied up in messy bun. So we're just organizing things for the radio show ... the where's what's etc. N she shows up. Now, being a business woman and lady I TRY to keep things civil, but after this bitch looks me up and down with some ghetto-ized garbage look ... ummm ... honey ... bye bye. Consider your ass got rid of because now everyone sees that not only do you look like you stepped out the 90's (with your t-boz hairstyle, 70's jeans and tank that only a genuine bonafide hoodrat would squeeze into n your stomach poppin over the top of your jeans) but they also now see how unprofessional you are. Congratulations. Then to top it all off you loudly start critisizing the studio owners daughter (who ... I would like to point out, does have some kinda career in music, whether it's one I respect or not). Damn S, you really outdid yourself there.

But anyhow ... so here she is ... on this new "project" (which is not only poorly edited but incredibly un-funny). Hair done in the same T-Boz style cept curly n lopsided this time, bags under her eyes that would rival Uncle Fester's (ya know, Adam's Family style) and a man jaw that suggests she eats steriods with her Cheerio's. To top that all off ... she apparently left her sense of humor on the A Train next to Doug E. Fresh.

I went so far as to watch it 3 times to check I wasn't missing the concept. (Actually the concept could have been great had someone executed it correctly) 18 minutes later ... nope wasn't missing the concept.

Just to show ... with some people ... NOT A DAMN THING CHANGES.
Progression babies ... it's all about progression.

Finesse It.

4. A stratagem in which one appears to decline an advantage.

v., -nessed, -ness·ing, -ness·es. v.tr.

When.

Where ... on my sofa listening to the rain outside
What ... when is it really time to SLOW DOWN?

I was just told "you need to sit your ass down and stop running around it's not healthy"
I had it sit and think about it for a minute - When is it time to slow down? When is it time to take a break?

This Monday I'm so over-excited about my mum flying in from England to visit for two weeks. Honestly, I cannot wait to be totally cut off from the outside world and just spend family time. Hell ... I MISS HER!! Family is always first and I'm so incredibly protective over my immediate family that people are lucky to even catch a glimpse of them, I keep them so shielded from any foolishness or potential problems. You think the CIA protects the president?! ... PUH-LEASE you haven't seen shit til you see me get protective over my fam.

So from Monday it is time to SLOW DOWN and bring everything to a screeching halt for two weeks.
So ... C ... you were right to tell me to slow down. From tomorrow (Saturday) I'm back on my 3 times a week training routine along with 74 fl oz of water a day and healthy eating ... I REALLY fell off having consumed far too many dirty water hot-dogs ... and way too much soda lol. But, sometimes you just have to give in to what you really want ;)

Tomorrow is the Exxotica Convention in NJ ... porn porn everywhere lol.
