I HAVE THE BEST BOYFRIEND EVER!!!!!

A coupla minutes ago this was gonna be a whole different bad word laden post but the bf came in on his shining steed and saved the day.

Sometime yesterday someone from office was kind enough to relieve me of $15, 000 that I had to complete payment on my new computer. I didn't notice it till this morning when I was getting my taxi fare. I was so angry and sad. I called my co-workers to check if they had seen any suspicous acitivityaround my desk yesterday and no one saw anything. So I'm at desk alternating between cussing mad and crying sad. When the bf shows up, with $15, 000 of his own money to give me. My knight in shining armour! So I won't be bitching about him for a looooong time.

I'm gonna do all the official reporting at work but this is fucked up. My bag ain't leaving my side again.

And you know what pisses me off too. I have a good mind to tell my computer dealer get lost wen I get my computer. If I had gotten my computer on time then some tirfing raas wouldn't have their $15, 000 to do whatever with. A nd I know tis the season but I really hope and pray whoever took it suffers. Break a leg or something, have an accident and don't say I don't mean it and forget it cuz I ain't that kinda person. I highly doubt whoever took it was starving prolly just wanted money to go spree or some shit well I hope he or she gets shot or loses a hand in a car accident.


Onto better news. I was a glutton last night! I had dinner/supper at David's house and his mom is a 5 star cook! It was Indian themed, so there was curry chicken, goat and shrimp. Normal and potato roti, dahl(I think that's how it spelt.) callaloo cooked with coconut milk, okra(I didn't have any, not a fan), banana and white rice. I didn't have any rice, hello! there was roti! The food was HEAVEN!!!! I ate and didn't stop wen my tummy ws full that's how good it was. And then there was fruitcake AND chocolate cake. And we all know it's against my religion to have choccy and NOT eat it so I ate that too! And they had sorrel! Real sorrel! With not too much sugar, rum or ginger, sorrel!

They also had this really good snack they got from Guyana. Split peas fried with salt and pepper, Mr Lam gave me a bottle :) I'm gonna be enjoying that for awhile yet.

Anyhoo, a BIG thank you to the best boyfriend ever!!!! I love you!

I'm done

Not that I regret getting back into soaps because if I hadn't I wouldn't be writing or doing graphics and I wouldn't have met some of the wonderful people I know now. But that's it. I'm through. I'm sick of it. Why do I always choose the characters that get turned to shit? You know what's not so funny. When shit started happening on one soap I sought refuge in another only to find it's the same shit just different names.

Don't say anything Rog cuz I know what you're gonna say and I don't care to hear it. I started watching because I was being entertained, it was fun then it just isn't. My intelligence keeps getting insulted and my faves are being written as freaking aliens cuz I dont know who the fuck they are anymore.

I need a laptop, I can write at work but I can't do graphics unless someone makes a writely.com for Gimp or Photoshop. Sometimes I'm at work and I wanna try something and I just can't and by the time I get home I'm tired or have forgotton.

Speaking of which, where's my new computer? Bah! I'm supposedly getting it tomorrow just called and I'm highly doubting it but we'll see.

I have cotton candy!!!

I love walking through HWT at night. I know it's a total corny line but it's so alive. The music. This one stall that has a TV so there's almost always a small crowd there watching. The taxi/bus loaders:

Baby love! Browning! New Kingston? Mommy! New Kingston?
The vendors selling any and everything and I do mean any and everything. fruits, vegetables, clothes underwear, cell batteries and charger, Saw some cool slippers tonight. But I gotta be careful with the spending, money I got now gotta last till next year. I ma not even frame my painting till next year.

Had a not so good day today but I don't feel like talking about it.

Millie Jackson is in Jamaica and I dunno who she is or any of her songs but I'm thinking of going anyways but the outlook ain't good.

My new computer is still on the wharf somewhere,hopefully this week, I'll get it, hopefuly.

Saw Kit tonight, he looks good, good enough to make me forget he's recovering from a stroke.

anyways, enough talk.

God bless Mary J Blige. Her new album is downright buyable and I will buy it, just great. Mellowing me out right now.

Another public transportation rant: those little fuckers aka JUTC inspectors or wat ever bulshit they call themselves, do me a favour, can take some time out of your labrishing to do your raas job? Sitting there chatting when people are a few feet from them waiting on a bus the JUTC ppl know ARENT coming. People been asking and you tell them bullshit about running late, ugh! See it's shit like that make people give you such a hard time.

Another friday night at my house. oh joy. Today is Paul's birthday, I wanted to go chill with him but it didn't work out that way. I guess I should be glad. I'm working tomorrow and I need to conserve on cash seeing my next payday is a long way off. See, I'm not even mad or frustrated anymore. Thank you Mary.

For my LJ people girl Nuri is making me a header :) It's gonna be the HOTTNESS! I'm soo excited!

Public transportation is the devil...

...well, not really but last night and this morning was not good. Last night my bus came and handful of people gathered but the driver had to go take a break or leak so we all stood outside waiting for him to come back. Now the amount of people outside was way less than the seating capacity of the bus so no one was in a rush, except one girl with a willfuly oblivious mother. This little girk kept pushing and boring and the little bitch stepped on my toe WITHOUT an apology. So I just timed her, wait for her next round of pushing, moved my foot a little, turned a little bit and when she pushed again she went to the floor, well she hit the ticket dispenser but it was still a great fall. I gave her a 9. I had my laugh and went to my seat.

This morning my bus was late and not even 5 minutes into it, the ticket dispenser went on vacation. So the driver stopped to call the depot becasue she couldn't cash new passengers. And there was the usual loud mouth passenger with her hilarious brand of dumbness.

And finally, you know those guys, that have a football field of space behind them on the bus but still ride your ass? Had one this morning. So I did what always do. The next time the bus stopped I hit him and pretended I lost my grip on the rail. I gave him world's fakest sorry and changed my position.

I'm going to see Chronicles of Narnia tonight, yay me!

I bought art!

There was an arts and craft fair at the Hilton today and I went to support my friend Gregory. Loved it! I wish I had money, we got some great local talent here. But I did buy something from Gregory :D A painting and I loves it! I just need to get it framed.

I also got my pic taken :) I was looking good even if I say so myself, when I get them I may post them.

My bf is sick and apparently has taken a nasty fall. Poor thing well, I'd say serve him right but then I'll appear wicked but he neve listens so I'm gonna say it, serves him right. I bet he still won't take his ass to the doc.

It's that time again



yep, time to wash and comb my hair and it's times like this I seriously contemplate getting locks(hence the L-Boogie pic). Yes, I know locks need maintenance too but at least I wouldn't have to worry about combing it. I hate washing my hair cuz it gets knotty no matter what product I use and combing it out HURTS. So I can straighten my hair, lock it or continue to grin and bear the regular. I'm not feeling the first option and the second is a commitment I'm not sure I'm willing to make. The third is a PITA.

I went to have my hair locked once and they couldn't cuz they were booked out but I made an appointment that I cancelled on. Now I'm thinking about giving them a call. Maybe one day I'll bite the bullet.

Going to an exhibiton tomorrow. K's bf is one of the artists showing off their work. And I know jeans and t-shirt ain't the what to wear :(

My new comp comes next week! :) I may just a TV card to the list and I will but not now. I dunno how I'm gonna get it home though. Hopefully Rog or Warren can bring it home for me.

I wish I had my cam. I wanted to take a pic of myself and make an icon. Speaking of which. I'm gonna make some Gimp brushes with Jamaican sayings. I'm gonna make imagepacks too since not everyone use Gimp. Now I need somewhere to host them. Suggestions please.

Anyhoo, gonna see if Blossom can do my hair. I was gonna twist it but I'm feeling sleepy.

Writely.com test

Went home last night to see an electric support pole lying in the street by my house. Apparently one of them JUTC buses knocked it out. The pole was old anyways, almost rotted right through.

I'm working xmas day, yay me.

Anyhoo, this is just a test post from writely.com. I can post to my blogger and LJ from here so I'm testing it.

ETA: YAY! It works! For here and my LJ. My cup runneth over.

gov't blows

Now my wonderful government after complaining about the policemen that wanted a well deserved payrise citing lack of funds and such have just increased THEIR pension like those parasitic fucks need more money. Ugh! Now theyre fucking around Half Way Tree. Changing roadways and making the place more congested and the town buses are now where Papine buses are and th Papine buses are now God knows where because they made one bus stop JUTC bus only. Which i can sorta understand bcuz the coaster drivers used to block up that bus stop and get in the way of the JUTC buses but it's still annoyin to me.

Best "improvement" has to go to the new pedestrian crossing between NCB and York corner. It's a three(3) lane road with nice new crossing and a light that says walk for less than five(5) seconds. Me want to see the eediat that design that shit cross that road in less than 5 seconds. nobody thinks!

Onto my raving, I have a new internet love, www.writely.com It's an online word processor. Now I don't have to worry about comps having OpenOffice, as long as there is net I can work on whatever fiction I'm currently working on. I love that you can upload OO documents as well as Word and you can save as them too. No more uploading and downloading for me.

Ackee & saltfish

Ackee & saltfish is like the best breakfast EVER!!! With banana, dumpling, yam and sweet potato. Only ting missing is me lemonade or me chocolate tea, i have had that in ages.

About Thursday, thanks to all my friends that IMed and called me. I started feeling better that same day, some English customer called needed help to setup a dial up connection, his accent was so nice and he was so charming got me laughing and not thinking about my previous post in no time.

This part is for the bf, take note when you read this. When I say I wanna spend time with you, that's what I want. I call him Friday evening, I wanna spend time with you, you working tonight? Him seh no, him will come pick me up. Fine, so I'm at work cracking jokes, Stumbling on the net and such. He comes, hangs for a bit then we leave. We had sorta made an agreement to watch a movie but I really wasn't in the mood. So he's like whch movie do you wanna see? Harry Potter, duh! But I wasn't in the mood and esp not a HP mood. SO I'm like why not chill at my house. Then he puts on his I don't wanna but I'll do it for you. And I cave, I'm like doesnt really matter, I just wanna be with you doesn't really matter where.

So I'm like OK let's go to Carib but I'm not watching HP, I'm gonna see Jarhead. I shoulda known by his slience shouldn't I? When we went there, you know he bought a HP ticket right? I was sooo pissed! Ugh! I just bought my Jarhead ticket and took the car keys from him. Ass.

Anyhoo, Jarhead was GOOOOD! Love it! Jake, Jamie and Peter were awesome in that movie! The other guys were great too but me nuh know dem name and I cba to look them up. That show was funny and touching.

So after I went in the car to wait on his HP-watching ass. I don't have to tell you how tempted I was to drive off, lol. But I didn't feel like driving, yes I'm lazy.

But we did hang some when he took me home. I swear my computer knows I'm getting a new one and is acting up. I rebooted it and it started giving that invalid system disk message. And my HD was making some dumb noise. ugh!. Opened the case took it out shook it and it sounds like sand or dirt is in there. I just got pissed put it back in. When I was putting the case back it came on and booted. I haven't turned it off since and I won't not till I get my new one.

Went to a benefit concert last nite. Me and David cuz the bf was sick. We went to eat first cuz we didn't think there'd be food there but there was. It was really good though, the cncert although we missed like a hour but what we caught was good. I had to leave early cuz I didn't have Rog to take me home and my head was bitching.

Washed my clothes this morning and now I'm streaming soul classics and eating me ackee and saltfish. I'm gonna take a nap. Prepare myself for being broke tomorrow, when i go cut a cheque for the new computer.

d.e.a.t.h.

I just spent 5 minutes in the bathroom crying for someone I don't know and for a friend that I'm not so close to anymore. Keesha IM me telling me Latty bf died and I got confirmation from Dave. Now Latty and I are aren't close but it's not a hate thing. I want to call her but I have no idea what to say but I do anyways. She sounds sorta normal but sorta fragile, she says she's OK and I'm still searching for something to say.

I dunno why this affects me so much. Maybe it's cuz it was just days ago I was thinking about Hailu since it was his birthday but I'm thoroughly depressed now.

A first

So me deh pon the bus going to work when I hear one of them bus preachers. No big deal, used to them. So as I'm turning up the volume on my iPod, I realize she's not preaching so much as she's arguing. So me turn down the volume to realize she and a guy arguing. Apparently they were of different denominations who decided to save the same bus. Cannot make up this crap.

As she something him challenge it and then them start rebuke each other in Jesus' name. Den dis rastaman is like, "Which one a unnu Jesus ago win dis?" For the first in my life I never wanted to come off a bus.
