"Now say Thank You"

"You know what grinds my gears ?" (True Family Guy fans stand up)

I hate it when someone does something nice for you, you say thank you because your mother raised u...not dragged you up. And you don't get as much as a head nod for being polite. Under normal circumstances I wouldn't rant about this minor infraction, however it happened to me three times in all of 3 minutes; needless to say I was a little overwhelmed. (Sidenote: you can only be overwhelmed or underwhelmed, never whelmed)

Newho. I think it is completely ridicilous for adults to constantly make an effort to make children say please and thank you over and over again when they are young for things such as bottles or food, when these sayings are lost in infantile amnesia or just plain forgotten as you get older. For those of you in blog land please remember to be polite and say please and thank you for they trully are the magic words.

Her Love

No other love can compare I swear
Shes the only one I know that will always be there
She loves me so much she beats the hell out of me so the world doesnt have to
She makes me try to be more accountable for the things that I do
Must hurt her to sit idly by and watch me make my mistakes
But she loves me that much, whatever it takes
Regardless of the grief and burdens I give she still weathers through
She does it so effortlessly, proof that her love is true
Thankful that I have someone to pick me up when I fall
She's always knows when I need her, don't even have to call
A kiss, a hug, a homecooked meal
Tiny pieces that show how a mother's love is so real

Need You Bad

I find myself completely in love with this song...Sining it extra loud and mighty off key while with friends or in a car kind of like this song. Funny how the brain works. Your subconscious will take a hold of something that your conscious isn't man enough to face and hold on to it until you get a clue. Well my subconscious let me in on to why I like the song so much. Apparently He lied to me and had a relationship with Jazmine Sullivan simultaneously with me because there's no other explanation as to how perfectly the lyrics of the song embody my feelings.

If i had you back in my world
I would prove that i could be a better girl
oh oh oh
If you let me back in
I would sho'nuff never never let you go again(hey baby)
I was so foolish to ever leave your side,
searching for what was right before my eyes
It was me who didn't realize
'till it was gone but now i know i need you in my life

Boy i need you bad as my heartbeat, (bad like the food i eat)
Bad as the air i breath, (baby i want you bad)
I need you bad i cant take this pain, (bad i cant take this pain)
Boy I'm 'bout to go insane (baby i need you bad)
I need you,
I need you,
What i gotta do (baby i want you bad)
I need you,
I need you,
Do it all for you (baby i need you)
Baby there's nothing i wouldn't do to get back what we had when love was true.
(oh oh oh)
No lie I'd give up all i got
Just so i could get back in my spot (Ooooh)


No...I do not think that throwing yourself at someone like this is all good in the hood, however if you know you messed up...the reality and the consequences of the actions eventually catch up and you feel it. It hurts. Life is like a tootsie pop sometimes. You gotta work through a really hard shell, maybe break a tooth trying to crack it but eventually you will arrive to a chocolate center. Naturally I have to get the rock hard lollipop that damn near cut my tongue. It's OK tho. I gotta chocolate center, it was promised to me.
