YESTERDAY SUCKED SWEATY BALLS AFTER A PICK UP GAME OF BASKETBALL...

BUT TODAY IS A NEW DAY!!

That was cheesy...I will prob delete this silly girly post in a few days. Gotta hide the evidence.

The Conundrum

Its summer. I'm a staunch supporter of nudity. I live in an "urban" neighbs.

Add these things together and you get me crying on Fulton Street walking to Jackie's house.

As a woman, I've been getting cat-called at my entire life. Every time probably hurts a little more and last night was the worst yet. I had on my fave cut offs and a tank top, nothing major. Yet, every step I took on that four avenue and seven block walk, I'm getting yelled at...

"Damn shawty, can I talk to you for a minute?"

"Ayo, yah ass lookin' right in 'dem shorts ma"

"Yo, I just wanna lick up dem thick ass thighs"

"Ma, you too pretty to be actin' like dat!"

One dude drove his truck up on the curb on Fulton ( the main street in Brooklyn) and was yelling out of his truck for my number. At this point, my eyes are burning and I'm at a breaking point. I turn around and yell, "NO, SHUT UP!" Of course, I am now an ugly bitch. Dude, if you would've seen my face before yelling at my butt, maaaaaaybe, you would have known that already. UGH!

Seriously, as a chick who only knows the howls of a cat-call, its really getting ridiculous. Unless you are a close friend you wouldn't know, but I've only had one boyfriend ( at 20) and prob only "talked" to 2 other dudes...and I'm reaching when I say "talk". So, when the only male attention is the quotes above, even the baddest b*tch ::cue Trina:: can get a bit down. When I was younger, I would acknowledge and respond to these things because that was the only way I could get males to speak to me outside of my humor. Its still the lone mode of convo between men I don't know and myself, but I'm not stooping to this silliness anymore. If that means that I will be a lonely cat lady for the rest of my life...I'm cool with that.

Think I could put some sequins on this to jazz it up???

VENTILATION : PARDON ME WHILE I SLIT MY WRISTS

Thanx Nightline/Oprah/Lonely broad in DC with the book deal/every blog known to man/Black men that bring non-Black women to see FELA for reminding me that my college degree and skin color are the reason why I will be a cat lady by 31.

OK...PROMISE I'M BACK FORREALS THIS TIME!

As you know...my power cord for mi laptop couldn't handle the death of Michael Jackson so she ended it all.

I've been a crackhead status hunting down anyone with chargers until my Apple dealer resurfaced. Well, he's still M.I.A. and have things to do, so I'm breaking down and buying one from the Apple store. :: Le sigh::

I'm back! I'm back!

Now its time for the catch up...mama's been busy!

VENTILATION :TURN OVER RATES IN NYC

Hetero relationships in NYC = Homo relationships in general.

Like my friends say, "the kids move fast honey!" Seriously, in NYC, you can have a full fledged relationship equivalent to 3 years to most people, in 3 months. Its like meeting a dude Monday...hooking up by Friday...introduce each other's friends by Saturday...saying "I love you" two weeks later...a month passes,keys get made...you break up a week later...a date with someone new the VERY next day.

I've been wanting to post about this for a while and I'm just getting around to it. Its funny watching the forever revolving door of people shuffling in and out. I swear I can't keep up with my friends and their briefly significant others! As for me, I'm the queen of going on one date, give some phone time, and then stop answering calls because I was over it before it started. Standing in a sea of people in my age group getting married or having youngins, I sometimes feel immature. When is my circle going to settle down??

::sigh:: New York... I mean, its cool for your twenties, but its people actually living like this in their 30s and 40s. I expect so much more for my elder years! LoL

For all of my NYers..what do you think about the crazy turnover rates for dating in our fair city? Out-of-towners make sure to weigh in!

VENTILATION

IM SO OVER THIS WEATHER.....WHERE FOR ART THE SUMMER??????

Note to self: Find the male version of this...
