"JustTrina"

Dr. Dawson: JustTrina, why haven't you been to the doctor in 4 years? JustTrina: Cuz I figured I wasn't bumpin', so what's the point? Dr. Dawson: When was the last time you had sexual intercourse? JustTrina: January 1st of this year. Dr. Dawson: And before that? JustTrina: May of 2001. Dr. Dawson: And you never thought to go to the doctor in that time? JustTrina: Dude, I don't have a penis. I don't have to "use it or lose it." Dr. Dawson: No, but I guess you want your uterus to fall out as you're walking one day. JustTrina: That can happen? (pause) Ah well, so long as it makes the periods end, I'm all right with that. Dr. Dawson: Get out of my office...I will see you next year. JustTrina: Whatever makes you feel better at the end of the day, doc.

----------> You have GOT to be shitting me. Then again, I can see it. Further proof that a brilliant mind can't get you as far as awesome boobs and bleach blonde hair. So go ahead, get those implants and buy that bottle of Clairol hair dye!! I'm starting the pool on how long it will last...I say RIGHT til the holidays, then it's curtains. I mean, c'mon, she probably only dated him for writing "Daughters," figuring Papa Joe could only approve of a man who wrote a song like that. Beats bad boy, unkempt potty mouth Dane Cook any day. Well, if it works, it works, that's what I say. Nothing nowadays promised and if they can make it work, more power to them. Besides, John may get some new material for his comedy routine . UPDATE: Apparently, I'm not alone on this one.

Reading a book has never been a struggle for me, but I recently discovered my nerd kryptonite: The 9/11 Commission Final Report . As intriguing as it may seem to read about the events leading up to and after the hugest terror attack on American soil, political jargon is boring as all hell. And I tried, trust me, but to no avail. But fear not, for Slate , my favorite online magazine, has made a dream come true. They are showcasing The 9/11 Report: A Graphic Adaptation . Yes, you read right, and it's awesome. Illustrated by Sid Jacobson and Ernie Colon, this graphic novel takes you through the entire 9/11 Report. I love graphic novels. I wanna say Brian (the Pimperor) introduced me to the world of the graphic novel; he showed me that they too, are books in their own right. It's a good read and the graphics are GREAT, so I'd check it out if I were you. I mean, it's no Jimmy Corrigan: The Smartest Kid on Earth , but it's worth a shot. Will I try to read the actual repor...

E-mail from me to the ENTIRE corporate office: To: GPC Alpharetta From: JustTrina RE: Color Copier I'm going to be using the color copier for the next couple of hours to print a publication. As always, you can scan documents to be e-mailed, but copying won't be available until 3:30-ish (I love the tem "ish," it pretty much guarantees no one can get mad at me for taking too long. Why? 'Cuz I said "ish" and that buys me AT LEAST a half hour. "Ish," people, not just for valley girls anymore, add it to your vocab today). Thanks and let me know if you need anything further. JustTrina And this, my darling readers is why I'm so loved by many.

Wanna know what all the hype's about? Check out John Mayer's newest CD, Continuum . All thank you notes and checks can be sent to my home in Atlanta. Address available upon request. It's different, but a good listen nonetheless. Wonder why he didn't go with MTV this time? Oh, that's right, cuz he's an adult.

I flew home this weekend for my uncle's funeral and realized how much I hate Delta. Not ONCE have I flown on this airline and enjoyed it -- okay, ONCE...but that was in first class (translation: free liquor makes everything better). As with most things, I don't want to spout off at the mouth about something without good reason. So, that being said, I've come up with a list. In no particular order, here are the things I hate about Delta. 1. You will wait. You will be given no information and you will wait. My flight out was delayed 3 hours and we weren't told anything until an hour into it. 2. 12 flights out of one gate is NOT a smart idea. 3. Your staff, not so nice. I thought Delta was supposed to be the best airline to work for. Bigger ain't necessary better in this case. Maybe their mad cuz they can't afford those HOT new uniforms you advertised a while back. I thought you went baknrupt? A few times? 4. Your gate is UGLY. This may be more of an Atlanta-Hart...

I'm sitting here in the airport waiting to fly back home for the weekend for my uncle's funeral. The flight was supposed to leave at 6:30, and yes, it's 9:30 right now. That's a 3-hour delay. And I refuse to eat cuz I know good food awaits me at home. F'n Delta SUX!! Anyway, enough ranting... There is an airline employee standing in front of me and THAT is what prompted this blog. Sometimes people do things that make me ashamed. Ashamed to be black, ashamed to be a woman, ashamed to be human . Not so much for myself, but for the embarrassment they're putting themselves through, especially with people like me in the area. That being said, I've got an announcement (or newsflash, if I may): If you're black and wearing a blonde WIG, chances are people know it's not yours. So don't toss your head around and caress your hair like it's natural and not from Barbaro's mane. That's it, some people just need to be told these things...
