The Randomness......

Clearly I wanted to be more dedicated to blogging than my life has allowed. If you've been waiting for the next excerpt, I apologize....since I have a few moments, I'd like to say a few things...like to hear it, here it go....

First, I must pay homage and respect to one of my favorite entertainers, Whitney Houston #RIP. I sat in disbelief on my couch when I read the news. I'm still having trouble wrapping my head around it. My prayer is that she made peace with God and transitioned to a better place. The world can be so hateful and cruel sometimes, even at the most inopportune moments. Sometimes I wish we could send direct haterade to the media. I know they try to do their jobs, but most of the time it's overkill and inappropriate. Me and Whitney have been through some things, not literally, but you know what I mean.  Her voice was so melodic and angelic and I'm thankful for the opportunity to hear her instrument. Prior to her passing we were just getting over the fact that Don Cornelius was gone too soon. He too was iconic in my childhood. "Soul Train" was a Saturday staple in my household. Who didn't get down with the hippest trip in America? A platform for so many artists... I remember seeing him on a recent episode of "UnSung" w/Full Force and thinking " Don's still kickin". Just goes to show, you never know what a person's going through or what demons they're fighting.
Much respect.....Rest In Paradise

Speaking of paradise...I'm on way to CIAA next weekend. For those that don't know what that is, I heard it's like "Chocolate Euphoria". Needless to say I'm really looking forward to it, because a sista could use a break, even if it's only for a day or two. Something to break the mundane monotony of everyday life. I'm pretty sure I'll need to dedicate a whole entire blog post CIAA so stay tuned for that.

Let's talk about this crazy weather. We haven't really had much of a winter, very little snow of which I'm not mad.....at all. Matter of fact if March 20th rolls around and we enter into spring without anymore traces of snow, I will be happy. Temps last week were in the 70's. I saw a bee....a freekin' bee! But you know what? I think the bee was confused because it was flying in a circle. Poor bee...I'm ready to retire the coats. I'm not a coat chick. They get in the way......How can you be cute with a coat on? Granted they make cute coats, but I'm cool just walking out the door with my keys and purse sans a big, bulky, worrisome coat.

Can we discuss reality TV? Am I the only one that is addicted to it? It seems there's reality shows for everything these days. Have you checked out "Lizard Lick Towing"....OMG...see what I mean? Who knew some back yard repo towing company in NC could be so entertaining. Pure comedy....check it out. I really try to understand who's reality these reality shows are portraying though. On most of the shows centered around women, there's a lot of eating, shopping and fighting. Rarely do you see anyone going to work. I mean...that's my reality. I guess that would be kind of boring though. Who would want to see me waking up at 5:45am, showering, getting in the car to travel 45 minutes to work, to sit at a desk all day, to get back in the car to drive 45 minutes home, to enter the PUBERTY chronicles that await me, cook dinner, check homework, get the kid showered, to probably log back in to do some work, watch a little TV and then go to bed...yea, that sounds boring. Oh well, I guess I'll continue to indulge in watching people who think that they're mother-effin' factors and boo boo's and socialites (with criminal records.......yes, that was SHADE). I mean really...but if we're watching, they're getting paid I guess.TV as a whole is missing me these days....I usually just watch re-runs of Martin and Jamie Foxx on Centric and TvOne. I pay all this money for cable only for them to play the same movies over and over and over and over and over..........did I say over?

I think the last thing I want to talk about is the All-Star Game. Did anyone watch it? OMG...it was like watching paint dry. The most entertaining part was Kevin Hart in the Celebrity All-Star game. The slam dunk contest sucked....I mean...first of all....who were the contestants? Jumping over a motorcycle? Doing a 360...granted I can do none of these things, but I'm staying awake to watch you do SOMETHING and all you can give me is some wack dunks? Really? I did enjoy seeing Kevin Durant and Rajon Rondo in the skills competition and the three point shoot out. Somebody explain to me why damn near every grown man had those Run DMC glasses on. Are they making a comeback or something? And the leather jackets....I mean....but I guess that's fashion. What do I know....

This has been B. Angie Ang....on your blog dial....over and OUT!
