"There is always something left to love. And if you ain’t learned that, you ain’t learned nothing."--from A Raisin In The Sun

My mood is a lot better than the last time. I was going through a whirlwind of emotions for whatever reasons. I really am an easygoing person, and can take poke fun of myself (98% of the time!). Anyhoot, I am back to being the crazy, silly egg that I am known for being:)

Recently I was saddened to read about a blogger's loss of a loved one. I sent him an email saying that I was touched by his words, and that it reminded me of how much I love my ma. And pa. Yes, I've had some turbulent times with my family. Especially with my father. After I moved out last year, I had no contact with him for about three months. Alas, we slowly reconciled and I make attempts to visit when time permits. I realized that I can't change his ways, and life will simply be miserable if I try to...I had to learn to forgive the wrongs of the past. No I won't be able to erase the wrongdoings, but I can look forward to light-hearted moments, which can be sporadic and surprising. Last night I was home for a brief visit. When my dad came back from the office, he asked if I wanted to watch Sidney Poitier's "A Raisin In The Sun." He asked a few times before, and I'd keep saying another time. I knew I should sit down and watch this classic. It was everything that I had expected. Powerful storyline that involved the strength of a family's bonds tested by harsh prejudice and poverty. After we finished the movie, my dad asked if I liked the movie. I said yes and that it probably is 100 times better than the P. Diddy version:). He said bye and to take care of myself...

Irritable Egg Syndrome

I'd like to take this time to vent about sarcastic comments that have been made recently....

1) I like to blow my cash at JcPenny's because I can't blow it at a Ralph Lauren store. Besides I still like to shop in the junior's department! Very reasonable and stylish items for my hard earned money's worth. Ya I'm proud to say that I shop in the junior's dept! Telling others of my "bad" shopping habits is uncalled for and very rude. I should also add that in the past year, I've bought things without guilt. When I had my loan for med school, anything that I bought had a tone of "you don't deserve this." Ever since I left home, I've learned to splurge on things that I wanted...and deserved!

2) I like to sleep late and wake up late because my body is wired differently than most people. I used to be quite the insomniac, so I've learned to fall asleep when the body says it's time and wake up whenever my sleep cycle has ended...I also like to vegetate in the bed before actually getting my ass up.


I like to laugh and can make fun of myself. But I also have LIMITS. Trashing friends in front of others is something that happens in drunken rages. Especially if the others include people you don't really know! I wish I could take the punches, but I can't...I'm a gal. I don't have balls. But I do have the balls to tell you that you've hurt me.
