I might need to go to the doctor cause I just got tagged...


Damn you Terrance!!! I should slap you like a ball-headed step child that stole money out my purse after I stole it out of her daddy’s wallet. Okay, Okay...since I too appreciate the Blogs I read daily I’ll play along.

The following are Bloggers that I check out as often as possible (sometimes twice a day) and why I appreciate you:


~Terrance-HoustonNY~ He’s one of my closest friends and one of the most intelligent and down to earth people that you could ever know. His posts are always thought provoking and inventive. I’m actually privy to some of his posts before they are published due to the fact that I work with him. Love ya, Babe...You’re a Doll...

Lost...in Translation I just love the love and support that he gives his friends. I know from personal experience that he is a great guy and his page always sparks nostalgia. “You killed my momma bird, Gina.”
For 10 points what was Momma Pain's bird's name?

LUVIN ME It's nice to see how a real lady handles drama. Her blogs take me back to college when I was watching soaps religiously and she is the heroine that I’m rooting for. Don’t ever let them get you down, Girl.

Voices In My Head When I say that this man is a Comedian on the low, any body who has read his posts before can testify that I’m not joking. The man says the sh*t that we all want to deep down and I love him for it.

A Day In The Life I started to read his blog after reading the comments that he left on other blogs. I love the other points of view that he offers with just a touch of humor...reminds me a little of myself.

BEING BOBBY BROWN JR. (not Whitney's Husband) I first met him at a little restaurant in the village while he was complimenting my girlfriends on her breasts. He was very funny and, as they say in church, ‘my sprit just took him’. It wasn't as much surprising, but very refreshing to hear or read how articulate he was voicing opinions on his blog. “BOBBY” (a la Whitney).

Chronicles-of-a-sexy-fat-chick It was her name that got my attention first…what can I say I’m a sucker for big girls. As I read one of her comments on Luvin Me’s page, I liked her personality and point of view so I checked out her page and so should you (that one was for free ya’ll). Hey, search through her page for some of her poetry ya’ll.

Last but definitely not least is A REASON TO LIVE. She is also a good friend of mine and although we don’t see eye to eye on some topics, I do value her opinion. I also love reading about what’s new in her life in hope that she doesn’t let the stress of life get her down.

WWHHEEWW...well that wasn’t that painful. I enjoyed just thinking and asking myself, “Well, why do I read that damn page anyway?” Okay gang, Holla at ya’ll later. I’m gonna try to have the original post I was planning on putting up BEFORE I GOT TAGGED up here by tonight. Love you guys...

No, We like you guys...Really we do!

What I like to do with my blog is expose the myths that I believe divide our society on a daily basis. My aim is to give the readers another point of view so that maybe one day they my will understand or try to understand the 'other sides' plight. Because if there is one thing I hate it's an ignorant person trying to teach a subject they have no knowledge about. Furthermore, these people use their influence to make others think the way that they do when they themselves haven't even tried to educate themselves past the typical stereotypes. This if my futile attempt to change the world.


Today, I would like to address the myth of the “man hating lesbian”.

Yes, I’m calling it a myth because contrary to popular belief we (lesbians) do not hate men. In fact, many of us, including myself, grew up with several loving, male role models in our lives that we looked or continue to look up to. And, even more of us have men, gay or straight, that are friends...sometimes they're even our closest friends.

So, where did this myth come from?

Well, I’m not a sociologist but this is my view…
Women as a whole have trouble completely trusting men stemming form a bad history that they have either heard of or experienced themselves with men. Also, and all you Pastors out there need to write this down, almost 85% of woman, PERIOD, have experienced some type of sexual abuse. Be it at home, in the street or on a crowded train…eeewwww, flash back. And sometimes for a person who likes to be in control it’s hard for a woman knowing that most men can over power them and rape them at any moment.

Straight woman deal, with the sh*t because they love them and know that not all men are bad. We know this also…really we do…but it’s just that since we don’t need sex from men there is even less reason to want them around. Now, this is nothing to be offended over but some men can’t understand that some women don’t need them. But, they in turn need women to show them attention. Even if they are a lesbian, some men feel that deep down all women want d*ck. Which is NOT TRUE. A woman can like penetration but not like men; sorry to break it to you. Some men can’t get it through their hard heads that their hard heads are not the precious commodity that they thought they were so they will rape even the most butch looking women just to show that they are still the dominate one of the species.

Gay women resent this thinking so as a defense they simply try to stay away from most men. Another belief of mine is that some lesbians have a hard enough time finding mates and then to see women that they would love to love being mistreated and abused by men. From personal experience I can tell you I was IN LOVE with my roommate in college and wanted to snap the neck of her boy friend every time I had to console her after one of their arguments. I was like this woman is wasting away on this BOY.

Now, as far as Gay Men go with lesbians, I have never had any bad blood with them. People are people to me…no matter who they love. Some are assh*les and some are down the earth…I’m good friends with one and cool with others. But, I have seen the bad looks that they get when coming into a lesbian establishment and they are not pretty. Also, a friend of mine told me about an experience that he had just on line to get into a club that affected the way he views lesbians.

First of all I’d like to apologies for that even happening…because it shouldn’t…we should all be able to hang out and chill. Now, that being said, certain things run through the mind of a woman when we see ya’ll on the line. We ask ourselves, “Don’t you have enough places to look for women…why you got to try and pouch ours?” And we think that gay men have just as many if not more clubs that they can hang at, why they got to come into ours to? And some times there is just a vibe that you get when there is nothing but female energy in the room…and it feels good when we are just trying to have fun…mmm, just p*ssy everywhere…but I digress.

Sorry, guys but when we first see you all we see is a man; not a gay man but a man. So all those things I mentioned earlier come rushing back into our minds and we get on guard at first but hopefully we relax realize that you guys are not trying to threatening us…you just want to shake your ass too. And some of ya’ll can shake it better than us too….Don’t get gassed…I said SOME.

We love men seriously…some of us even get our sense of fashion of them…we just don’t LOVE love ya’ll. I hope that shed a little light on the subject and helps to bring us closer through conversation. So please tell me your thoughts…or past experiences with the subject.

Hi! My name is Felicia and I’m an Aries…..


As we are 13 days from closing out the season of Aries I figured that I give a quick ‘shout out’ to all my Rams out there. I love being an Aries due to the characteristics that one usually show when being born under this sign (getting all technical and articulate on ya’ll).

General Profile

Aries is symbolized by the Ram. You're initiating, bold and impatient, your fiery nature making you irresistible and exciting. While you can be impulsive and combative, you're the absolute leader of the pack -- in team sports, business or just your group of friends and family!

Aries Kid Profile

If you're an Aries, you're likely to be the most energetic kid on the block! Aries is a Fire Sign, which means you get excited easily and you're always ready to run around doing anything fun. You get bored easily, too, and you're constantly fidgeting. At the dinner table or in the car, your Mom and Dad are constantly telling you to settle down! Aries is represented by the Ram, an animal with tons of energy and spirit -- and a bit of fight in them, too. Do you get mad fast and then get over it and move on just as quickly? Yep, you're a true Aries!

Friendship Profile

As fire can be a fleeting thing, so can be the friendship of a Ram. If you want to call an Aries up for a night on the town, you'll have an exciting companion for the evening -- but don't try to make plans for next week. This Sign needs variety in their friendships. If one group of people can't keep up with their constantly changing interests, they'll move on to new friends. Not that they ever lack for companionship: The Ram is well liked for their edge, so making new friends is never a big problem. Friends are nice, but not exactly necessary for independent Aries, who doesn't need a big group to have fun. When they are in one, though, their competitive nature is liable to get the better of them. Don't try to borrow even a cup of sugar from this one. Ruled by the First House of Self, selfishness can sometimes take the upper hand when it's a choice between people and possessions. On the other hand, the Ram can be very warm toward their friends. As long as Aries feels that they are the number one friend in your life, you can count on having an exciting, albeit brief, whirlwind of fun.

Best Friend Bets: Gemini, Aquarius

Romance Profile

The sign of the Ram is graced by the element of Fire, and if you were to use one word to describe Aries, it could easily be heat. People born under this sign have a passion and red-hot energy, which often proves irresistible. It's certainly never boring! Aries likes to initiate relationships, and the role of seducer comes to them easily. This sizzling romance dance will only work on those strong enough to stay in the game, because Aries wants a partner who can go toe-to-toe with them, whether it's over lunch or under the covers. Aries likes to get its way and often pits the wishes of self against what is best for the partnership, which can lead to conflict. These battles, though, are often foreplay, which can result in some sexy fireworks of their own. The Ram is possessed of a great physicality, a sense of adventure, is wildly flirtatious and loves to play.

Aries and Sex

The Ram is more of a tiger where sex is concerned and, like many other sleek animals, loves the hunt -- that steady pursuit of the ultimate prize. Aries is a physical and fearless lover and is blessed with the stamina to go all night long. They are not afraid to experiment sexually in their quest for pleasure, which means an open-minded lover is a must. The Mile-High Club must have been invented for these folks! It's safe to say that Aries' lover must be able to satisfy, or the Ram will move on. The dominant sexual partner will likely be the Ram, and while eroticism is important, a mental connection is also favored by this sign. As if Aries weren't passionate and demanding enough, they also want to be made to feel secure in a sexual relationship, lest jealousy rear its ugly head.

Aries Beauty Profile

Aries, as the first and fieriest sign of the Zodiac, prefers to set the trends, not follow them. If you're an Aries, depending on your generation, you were probably the first to iron your hair straight or wear glitter on your cheeks or even get that crazy Brazilian bikini wax. You like perfumes with florid, heady undertones, and you should call attention to your piercing eyes with bold shadow choices and well-groomed brows.
Though you'll try anything once -- bold shades on your eyes, ultra-short pixie hair cuts or the latest skin-hydrating therapy on the market -- the one thing in your life you're most loyal to is your sleek, sexy tube of red lipstick. You probably have a dozen varieties of red, but they're all vibrant and dangerous, never coy or subtle.
As a Cardinal Fire Sign, you like to get things started, but you're not so keen on finishing. This short attention span holds true for you when it comes to your beauty routine. You buy every new product that comes out, then quickly grow bored of it. Last season's discarded colors and half-used lotions pile up beneath your sink and clutter up your vanity.
Although the lotions and potions you love certainly help you shine, your true beauty comes from your spontaneity and willingness to experiment. You glow with a radiant and confident energy that is its own, natural blush.

Aries Fashion Profile

The Ram wants to be first in everything. This means you probably know, up to the minute, all about the current trends in fashion. One step ahead of the game, you're a trendsetter. Not afraid to try new things, as long as they appeal to your sense of fun and adventure, you'll wear the most daring of styles. As soon as you see a new item on the rack, you know it'll be the latest trend, and you're not afraid to spend your hard-earned cash to be the first to have 'the look.' In the eighties, you might have been the first to wear shoulder pads (and the first to rip them out toward the end of the decade), and in the nineties you were first in line for that eyebrow piercing. More conservative Aries turned on the television in the mid-nineties and went right out to get their 'Friends' haircut.
True to its fiery nature, the Ram prefers black and red clothing. Not one to go for the tailored look, your closet resembles Noah's Ark, full of all shapes, sizes, colors and fabrics. Rest assured, though, it all looks really good once it goes on your body. You know that flowers are out and solids are in. As far as makeup goes, dramatic eyes do you best, with bright red lipstick to match your fiery hair. Your Sign rules the head, so your best accessory is a hat and sparkling diamonds to adorn your neck and fingers.

Favorite Label: Gucci


So now that you know something about THE RAM tell me what you think. Is this profile close to the Aries that you know? Are an Aries and if so does this come close? What do you think about the Zodiac?

If you are posting, please introduce yourself with the greeting that I used at the beginning of this post…I’m just thinking that it would be cute…Like a big ass AA meeting.
