Arduous

Well, it's Good Friday, ya'll!! And what a good day it is. The WND (Wednesday Night Dinner) crew has decided we will continue in fellowship and start the tradition of having Easter dinner together.
My tasks for this dinner are: Macaroni & cheese, candied yams and collard greens. Maybe I'll toss in some corn bread for good measure.
I was trying to get everything prepared when I realized that my friend has my dish. I called her to pick it up, and her response was: "Is it necessary to get it now?" To which I answered, "Absolutely." She waited in silence for me to change my mind (which never happens) and then repeated the question. I answered the same and she again waited in silence for me to change my mind. See, one thing the needs to be understood about me is that, when I want, I am the MOST PATIENT PERSON EVER. So I waited right along with her (cuz I knew I'd win) until she conceded.
I'm also in a "dialogue" with another friend. I told her not to work so hard since she has a baby on the way and she FLIPPED OUT. I was concerned for her health and now, none of my calls get answered. So here's what's going to happen: she's not going to call me for months and will probably change her phone number. Admittedly, I did kinda call her out for always getting testy before her birthday but that doesn't warrant any kind of silent treatment.
Why are my closest friends so very volatile? Or is it me? Seriously.
Over 2000 years ago, that awesome dude Jesus died for our sins, so why is everything seeming so petty? No idea, but whatever, I love them.
Looks like I'm headed to the grocery store!!

Is That Eyeliner You're Wearing, Charlie Day?

So I was watching It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia a few weeks ago when I noticed that Charlie 's eyes were so prominent. He's a funny little man whose antics never fail to please so I pushed it to the back of my mind. I know people wear eyeliner to bring out the expression in their eyes because the lighting drowns it out, whatever floats your boat. And you never know, he may have REALLY pretty eyes that just look like he's wearing eyeliner. Then I was watching last night and realized there was no DOUBT Charlie was wearing eyeliner and I couldn't shake it. It really took me out of it. Nonethless, the show was AWESOME and I don't care if Charlie's a cross-dressing salad tosser's bitch, I'd watch him any time. Check it out, cuz it's quite possibly the best TV I've seen in a while.

What's So Different

I was talking to my cousin Debbie (the Princess) about dating last night when we ended up arguing about cultural differences. We're both Haitian, but I was raised Black American (that term itself is from the Haitian culture) whereas as she was raised with the culture deeply imbedded. I can honestly say I started "learning" how to be Haitian when I was 17. My friends all knew I was Haitian, but also knew I was basically in a Southern family. It's a long story, but I was kept as far away from anything Haitian as long as my mother could help it. That's just a little background, on to the argument. Now, Debbie and I are like night and day when it comes to men. She's not the sharpest tool in the shed and I cut someone before they get to use me. We're not only like that with men, we're liek that all around. I'm bookish, she's artistic. I'm witty, she gigles a lot. She's got numbers locked, I'd rather write a story. We're just...opposi...
