Forget the ball..hey sweetie where you going!

Big puss and I, took the puss to the park on saturday. He loved it with the exception of getting wet. Oh no! Rico Suave is not getting wet. So he started on the swings and he was giggling away.....awwww, how nice it is to be young and happy. Another little boy and his fad entered the park, but puss was not interested in playing with him.

He finally got tired of swinging and decide to play ball with his dad. However, there was no way in hell he was getting any ball that rolled in water sprinklers. Anywho, several other kids came on the scene to which he showed no interest.

However, about 20 mins later, a father and his 2 daughters came into the park. At first he continued playing ball, until one of the long haired cutie ran by him . Alright, hold up......brotherman ran pass the ball and after little miss shouting "Hey!!!!! Where you going? Big puss was rolling, of course Miss slow poke here thought he just miss the ball and went play with others.

Puss continue to chase miss thing for the rest of the day, until mommy spoiled it for him. I pick him up and ran through the sprinklers with him, so did his dad. Pepe Le Phew was no longer hot, he was drenched and he was pissed. He stop chasing miss thing and started crying.

Okay, so we spoiled his fun but I just wanted him to run through the water. Anywho, later when I asked him if he had fun he goes "yup, can we go again? LOL......kids

Itchfest

So, a few weeks ago I noticed that whenever I washed my hair it itches. I eliminated and isolated the problem to be Neutrogena Relaxed and Natural conditioner. Ummm....or so I thought . A week ago I had the major itch, I mean it felt like something hunkered down in my scalp and was chewing away. I washed my hair with Giovanni and conditioned with V05. No sooner than I got out it was on.

The itching got so bad that sleeping straight throughout the night was not an option. This morning with Big puss snoring and the itching, I got fed up and head to the kitchen. I had a box of Neem and was ready to throw the box in my head, if it means the itching would stop. So I mixed up a batch, massage it into the area. The itching stop, wow was all I could say.

Will it last? I don't know. I let it stay in for 30 mins and washed it out. Did it itch, yes it did. However, after an hr the itching stopped with the exception of the very lower part of my head, close to the neck. It's too early to say if this worked. I will keep check throughout the day and let you all know.

UPDATE: The itching finally stopped but took way too long. My good friend Onxycabelo suggested I try Brahimi powder. I certainly will.

Cellphones

I think the criteria for having a cellphones should include much more than a credit check or the ability to make a downpayment. To weed people out the application should list THE REASONS YOU WOULD BE DENIED

1. If you are stupid
2. If you can't spell
3. If you talk loud ( a little leeway will be given to slightly deaf, if it is medically proven)
4. If you text while walking
5. If you text while driving
6. If you have to be on the phone at 3 am talking about nothing

I'm sure some of you could add to this list.

So a note to the people who walk and text, this is NYC. NYC drivers will run you over, make you part of the roadway.... Giving new meaning to the word roadkill. They are crazy enough to drive and text, so damn if they care.

To the 3am users who think they the only one awake. Get a life, oh!!!!! I am sorry, I forgot while wifey home sleeping the girlfriend get the early morning call.

To the stupid, cellphones are a mean of communication in case of emergencies. Ummmmm... My bad, you still done get it huh?

Cellphones

Today as I drove past several people on the street, I could not help but notice that the cell phone is very dangerous. I mean I know that for me the cell phone means a quick link to the puss and big puss if anything goes wrong. I am sure this is the case with most people.

However, to some it seem to be nothing other than an expensive toy, to show off who has the better gadget. Way back in the day when there was no cellphone, you would have to wait from someone to get home before you were able to call them. God forbid there was an emergency, you would have to wait to get to the nearest home or callbox.

Then there was the invention of pagers, but back then it was only doctors who had that luxury. Somehow, it found it's place in the public and so that one could leave a callback number or a short text if you will. However, you still had to wait for the recipient to get to a phone. Then came the huge cellphones that looked like walkie talkies with buttons. Those suckers could have easily been used as weapons (LOL).....I know... I had one. Those who had one, proudly show them off. Those who didn't have, could only wish.

Cellphones have evolved so much over the years, that now it's more of a nusiance than a necessary commodity for some. People call all hours of the day (nevermind that you are at work).

Caller: "hey where are you?"
Me: "uuuuuum, at work"
Caller: "can you talk?"
Me: "uuummm, no"
Caller: "what you doing,later?"
Me: *rolling my eyes* *silence*
Caller: "hello" "hello"
Me: "I have to go"
Caller: "guess you can't talk now"
Me: *hanging up the phone"

Then there are the early morning talkers (3am-8am), what in name of Jesus could you seriously be talking about at that time of the morning. There are some that talking and walking cannot be achieved at the same time. They stand in the middle of the sidewalk, saunter across the road with no regard for the motorist..... uuuuum news flash here in the big NYC you will get run over by uncaring drivers who are also texting and driving.

Some people cannot even drive, and if they so much as take their eyes off the road for a second, they end up in Mr. Chin corner shop. Let alone talking and driving and worse yet texting and driving.

Cell phone.....the evil necessity.

That's crazy

So I saw the funniest sign today, at least IMO.

I walked passed a hair salon in the prestgious Manhattan NYC today. As I did on numerous occasions when I walk by, I would read the list of services that you can go in for.

Yet today was different as the list had a particular service that they have never advertised before. The list read:

1. Brazillean straightening $250.00

2. Cut and Blowdry $80.00

3. Henna $70.00

Now for those who have natural hair and prefer to use a natural color for their hair...this would have been hilarious.

Shoot, I know I was laughing. Why? b/c 100g of henna is like $1.99 - $3.99 if bought from the local India store and a litte more if bought online.

Now, my hair which is probably a little pass brastrap when stretch. I use about 100g-200g for all of 7.00 bucks. You don't need a professional to slapped the ish on your head and wait for a couple of hrs (Depending on the color you want).

So, c'mon $70. Not even if you add light and water...now here's a thought you morons, how about you pay me the $70 to slap the ish on myyyyy head.

Beware

Me: Puss, did you eat dinner?

Puss: "No"

Me: "you're such a liar."

Puss: "I'm not a liar."

Me: "If you are not a liar. Who is the liar?"

Puss: "Daddy."

Sorry big puss, it was my turn to laugh. Bawaahahaha...heeeheeeeeh..ROFL

Pet Peeves

One of my biggest pet peeves is getting skipped while in a line........I will tear the mutherother down if someone as much as put their little toe in front of me.

Since I have to ride the subway to work, I have a problem with people standing in the doorway of the train or rushing to come in, while you are trying to come off.

Standing at the top or bottom of a stairwell talking.......Cmon move your a$$ this is not ONESTOP.

People having a three course meal on the train. I saw one man pulled out a salad, then his dinner and then his dessert and drinks. Instead of putting the bones and box into the bag it came in, brotherman threw (yes I say threw) the bones and boxes and cup under the seat.......OMG !!!!!! I rolled my eyes, looked at him in disgust.........ummmm but noone else batted their eyelids. The only conclusion that I could come up with was that this NYC host a bunch of nasty Meffas.

Parking in the city is ripoff, parking anywhere is a ripoff.

People just spitting anyway. Now, where I come from, if we must, bound and compound to spit it would be in a area with dirt or grass (hence the coverup). No!! these people spit anyway. On you, in close proximity, in the train etc. I can't tell how many times I have to hop, skip and jump spit on a sidewalk.............utterly disgusting.


Peace

Michael Jackson 1958-2009

So I am a week late, but nonetheless remembering Michael Joseph Jackson. I remember back in my high school days, when there was a serious Michael Jackson craze. My brother and I had MJ's Jackets and stickers (we stuck them all over our bookbags and folders)

We would watch MJ's performance for hrs (thriller to be exact) and execute the moves flawlessly....(looking like two kids on crack...LOL). Good Times, Good Times.....thanks Michael. I am sad that he died and the way he died, but I am especially sad for "his" children.

I watched the memorial service at work.......shhhhh. It was tastetfully done and had a tear jerking moment or two. However, I almost shed a tear when Paris gave her little speech. Awww man. I don't care what noone says, his biological kids or not thats all they knew and they loved him. RIP MJ you will never be forgotten.

I can't take it anymore

Me: "puss, will you keep the noise down?"

Puss: *silence*, but he is still banging his cars.

Me: *louder* "puss, will you be quiet"

Puss: *blink* *throws hands in the air* and retorted "I cannot take this anymore"

While I was processing what the hell just happened, Big puss was cracking up.

Ummmm.....not funny.

Me: "well then there is the door, don't hit your diaper butt on the way out"

He promptly got up mumbling " Ok, I can't take it anymore", made his way to the door and proceeded to try to open it. Since it was locked and he could not get out, he remarked " I cannot opened the door mommy"

Me: "Sit your diaper butt back down and be quiet"

Puss: "okay mommy." "Mommy, I love you."

Me: " I love you too puss."

I am back after being sick for two weeks. I don't get sick often but when I do, I am knocked the fugg out.

However, I am back and I had time to think of stuff I wanted to talk about.

I will start off with caring for natural hair. I am by no means an expert nor professional, I can only tell you
what has worked for my hair.

I am natural, by this I mean that I don't process my hair with any chemicals. I decided a longtime ago that if I were to ever have a child, I would shave off my head and start over.

So 2 years ago I did just that. While it was not as extreme as shaving, I did cut off all the permed ends. What was left could barely fit in a scrunchie.

Fast forward 2 years later, I have a gorgeous head of curls (even I had forgotten the true texture of my hair).

At first I hd no idea how to take care of the darn thing. However, I did some research and started doing some experiments.

If you are a newly natural, or clueless as to where to start u can start here
naturallycurly.com. It is chock full of information so enjoy. I will be back with my own bloop and blunders with my hair...LOL...see ya
