HOW TO TELL IF YOU NEED TO PRAY AT WORK
* When a co-worker comes in a little too happy singing “good morning” to everyone and you think, “Somebody needs to slap the s#@! out of
her/him”…You need to pray at work.
* When someone comes in and announces, “office meeting in 5 minutes,” and you think, “what the f*&% do they want now?”….. You need to pray at work.
* When your computer is mysteriously turned off and you want to say, “which one of you sons of b*&^%$# turned off my computer?”….. You need to pray at work.
* When you and a co-worker are discussing something, and a third person comes in and says, “well at my last office…,” and you want to throw a stapler at him…… You need to pray at work.
* When you hear a co-worker call your name and the first thing that crosses your mind is, “what the h*&^ does she want now?” and you try to hide underneath your desk……… You need to pray at work.
* When you are asked to stay late and help do someone else’s work and the first thing that pops in your head is, “both of y’all can kiss my a@@!!”…. You need to pray at work.
* When you take some vacation time and come back to find a mountain of paperwork sitting on your desk because no one else would do it and you think, “sorry a## M#$^%F%&#s”…….. You need to pray at work.
* If you have ever thought about poisoning, choking, punching, slapping or flattening someone’s tires that you work with…… You need to pray at work.
* If you avoid saying more than hello or how are you doing to someone because you know it’s going to lead to their life story …..You need to pray at work.
* If you know all the words that have been bleeped out….You need to pray at work!
LET US ALL BOW OUR HEADS
PPP participated in an event called Stroll Like a Kappa last night. It was a mini step show but it was open to groups were not part of a sorority. I talked to my daughter before the show and she was all intimidated because she said a few of the groups were established sororities and she felt that was an unfair advantage. Let’s just say that my daughter’s group BLEW IT OUT THE WATER!!!! Krucial Katz were the shiznit!!! They won 1st place!
Letmein, was it sponsored by Kappa?
Some of my Kappas will be in town today for some stuff here in KC and then we’re heading up to Lawrence.
And congratulations to her!
(excuse my poor manners this morning)
Good morning family. What it do?
Congrats to PPP and her group!!!
Thanks Lovely. I believe it was sponsored by the Kappas. The emcee or whatever he was, was irritating as hell! Most of the shit he was saying was blah, blah, blah to me.
nobody LISTENS to Kappas, you just LOOK at them
Girrrrllll…..I swear guys didn’t look that damn good when I was that age. I think I said no less than 5 times, if I was 15-20 years younger and single…..DAMN!!!!
I was @ an HBCU football game last weekend and said the same thing about the young sistas…not that I paid tooo much attention! ;o)
I REALLY want to go see Raheem DeVaughn Saturday. As usual I have broke friends and I know hubby has no desire to see him and Tank. I’m wondering if I would feel like a loser if I went by myself.
SNORK! Coming in room with can of Perv-Off to spay in letmein’s panties, clam down and turn yo molester thoughts off…. Before you end up in the corner….
Good Morning Everyone!
MWM…I do think I said ‘wit-cho fine ass’ a few times last night. **fanning**
Letmein – if they’re 21 and over, I say go for it! Some of these young dudes have way better bodies than they did back in the day.
They’re introduced to spooge at such an early age, they’re prime and ready to be picked as soon as they’re old enough to buy liquor!
PLUS, that thing called “swag” is a mofo on the right young buck!!
And if you wanna see that concert, you should go!!
As YLY says, “One monkey doesn’t stop the show (unless he bites your face off)”.
Lovely shame on you, letmein is a married woman with videos on the net, don’t give her no ideas…… She should only lust from a far…..
((*))((*))
And for the record just cause they’ve been introduced to Spooge and an early age don’t mean they know how to do Da Nasty it takes years of pervin to get it down right, that goes for both male and female…..
Well, I think she should take one for the team and go for it and then come back with a full report.
“Jail?!?! Ninja…I aint afraid of going to jail….lock me up, throw away the key…I aint afraid ______ (man laws wouldnt let me repeat this lol)–> whoa whoa hey…this ninjas trippin” lolol Yall remember this scene? Hows everyone?

Good Morning Kings & Queens! Welcome to Thursday! I hope everyone has a great day today.
Yesterday was not a good day for me cuz I had a splitting headache. Well, today is a new day and even though my head still hurts a little, it’s not as bad as yesterday. I’m excited today cuz J is being shadowed by a junior at one of St. Louis’ top private schools, CBC. R & I have been wanting him to go to this school for years, but we’ve always kinda been a bit hesitant because of the cost. But God knows my desires and I have faith that he will make it happen! We will be applying for every scholarship known to man and also financial aid to assist us with cost. J is really excited and really wants to attend as well. My friends, I need all the prayers that I can get because I really want my baby to go to a great high school and this school is it! I am just so excited for what the future holds for my kids! God is good! 
Okay I’m done, what’s the T? *scrolling up*
Um, Lovely, although VERY tempting, I will NOT be tasting any of those young men! **sigh**
SB – is that “Life”?
MWM – I’m pretty sure it only took me about 6 months to get good at spooge. I had a fantastic teacher. Then, it only took college to make me an absolute pro at it. I think it’s in my astrological sign to be very passionate and thorough. I give it my all (minus tea and bags).
12 – congrats to the fam and prayers up for your wishes and the seeds you have planted to come to fruition!
LETMEIN – well where is the ninja? I’ll do him!
Hey Hey Hey!!
It’s HersheysKiss– unwrap the fun!! ALL OF IT!! Heh heh!!
Congrats to PPP!! Way to Go! *throwing confetti*
LoveTrain make sure you tell my boy Helloooooooooo from me. LOL I hope you have a great time!
Ooh!! Great News! I have a new intern who is FA-BU-LOUS!! Urkel revisted had to go! *still throwing confetti* Sheesh! Nice kid but it just wasn’t working.
HK – I’ll do that
Congrats on your new intern… Urkel will find his niche soon enough
lol Good Guess Love. It’s actually from “Dont Be a Menace while Drinking Your Juice in the Hood.” Its the scene when they’re at the party playin cards and the thug reminises about being in jail…anyway it was HIGHLY random I know. lol So I woke up extremely late this morning. I had a meeting at 8:15. Got up running at 7:48…had to jump in the shower etc…flew on the highway and walked in the meeting as it was starting at 8:15 on the dot…dont know how in the hell I moved that fast but I was on it…lol
What it do, boo?
And a special “what it do, BOOBOO?” for all the salad tossing folks out there in cyberland…
Prayers up A12. We’re in the same boat so I know all the emotions you are going through! We’ll both find great schools for our sons!
Congrats to PPP @ team! I LOVE stepshows!!! J already thinks he’s a Kappa. *sigh*
SB – brushed teeth, showered (including the salad shooter), lotioned, dressed, combed hair and made it to work in 27 minutes? What did you leave out?
Poor Urkel….LOL!
I didnt iron @ Love. Grabbed something out the closet, hoped it wrinkle-free enough and dipped…also left my hot cocoa on the counter dammit…
awwwwwwwwwwwww! The baby drinks hot cocoa! That’s really cute!
Mine likes hot apple cider
I LOVE these and think they will cure any suicidal or homicidal thoughts that I have at this moment….

>letmein, I thought you got him in your school of choice??? Are you talking about high school? Letmein Jr. is in 8th grade, right?
LetMeIn– don’t even go there!! You should be saying Poor HK! *that boy had me drinking at work!!**
>letmein, those are the BEES KNEES!!!
A12…baby boy is in the 8th. His school only goes to the 8th so I’m on a hunt for high school, also.
LOL @ HK….was he THAT bad?!
Yes Let- He was THAT bad.
WOW!!! So, he was let go or did you pawn him off on someone else? Someone else like an enemy? LOL!
Let – LOL Nah girl! His school is responsible for finding him a different site. He’ll be a-ok! LOL
Now he’s going to get an F..*sigh* LMAO!!!
He’s gonna get an F, flunk out of school, turn to a life of prostitution, get beat by his pimp and then OD on pcp.
Is PCP still a drug that people use??
That’s ironic. “Lovely” was a slang name for PCP in DC back in the 80′s. I heard.
If this lanky 25/20 mf’er bend down in my ear ONE MO’ GIN counting down the hours and minutes until he’s on vaction, I’m giong to kick him in the nuts!!! He’s been doing this shit all WEEK!!! He has a countdown clock on his desktop.
Yes Lovely, they still use PCP. All those reports of people running around butt naked are high off PCP.
OK, let’s say I decide to get married at 38 (in 5 years) and then have a baby at 40… is that too old?
Nah, that ain’t too old. But be prepared. Like when he/she is 5 and in kindergarten and you’re 46 and other 5 year olds have parents half your age without much in common with you – including perspective on raising kids. Or when you’re out with your 8 year-old and kind of imagine people wondering “is that his mother or his grand…”
Good afternoon all…Just doing a little PSA…if you know of family or friends who may be thinking of not voting, send this to them and hopefully they will change their minds…

TURN UP YOUR SOUND
Lovely I don’t think it is too old. That is my situation. Somebody is going to give me his sperm via spooge in the near future.
OAN this fool just quoted me a shampoo and style only for $80.
$80?!?!?! Just for a wash and set? GTFOH!!!
Lovely…IMO I don’t think that’s too old.
Thanks you two… I think I may make up my mind by then… my girl said 40 is too old to have a baby. She said I’ll be in my 60′s going to a college graduation. I figure by the time the kid is finishing school, I should be retiring and then it’ll be time to have fun again.
What’s the deal, pickles?!
Lovely….YEARS ago I probably would have thought that but my coworker had her daughter at 40. She’s a senior this year and my coworker still doesn’t look nor act a day over 40. She has a great relationship with her daughter and they travel and hang out a lot. My coworker said she has no regrets. She was able to do all her ‘youthful’ things and get that out the way before having children. I see nothing wrong with it.
I see nothing wrong with it either Lovely. You know 40 is the new 30.
Times today are different. I know a few 60 yr olds who don’t look 60 and don’t feel a day over 40. Sometimes I forget I’m 32 bc I thought I would have aches and pains and I would look old. lol But I don’t feel or look a day over 25. Ok, I may look over 25. I read an interview with Halle Berry a few weeks ago. Speaking of Halle, I want to be her in my next life. Have yall seen the pics from the Scream awards this week? That woman is hot! Anyway, she was saying how God only got one thing wrong. He should have made it easier to get pregnant as you age and harder as you are younger. When you are older, you have more patience and are more mature.
Girl have your baby at 40!
OJ – $80 is too much unless you live in ATL or DC (and even then, that’s still some BS). I pay $50 for shampoo/style.
ARK! Heeeeeeeeeey girl! How’s life and the gig and baby boy?
Letmein – that’s kinda how my mind is thinking. I’m just not ready for ‘that’ life yet but I’m hoping I can get past my issues and decide to marry this ninja one day so we can have a baby. SOMEBODY has to take care of me when I’m old and I don’t think he’s that great of a nurturer.
I just had the best Turkey Burger ever…with bacon, pepperjack cheese, and pesto. I opted for the fries instead of the tossed side salad, tho… O_o
I need a nap.
OJ – wanna know a secret?
Nikki is gonna sleep with Deacon and Victor isn’t going to leave her, he’s going to stick by her and try to get her some help. I love those two!!
Ark, I read that Halle interview!
OK, I’ll try to grow up in the next few years.
And you’re right, Halle is hot. She’s one of my girl crushes (as long as her hair is short). She’s going to be in that She-Na-Na/Wanda movie… Jamie Foxx was talking about it last week. Jamie said he urged her to get back to comedy and she said OK.
LHM – I get this amazing cheesesteak from this place and they use pepperjack cheese. It’s GOOD!
Lovely, I would do Halle and I’m not into females like that.
The gig is going good and baby boy still thinks he is running things.
Halle has THE most adorable child on the planet. That will remain a fact until my little munchkin is born… hehehehe
BTW 40 ain’t late, but keep in mind that the older you are, the harder it becomes. So, you may start TRYING at 40 but it could take up to a year or so before you are successful. Our eggs become ‘over easy or poached’ after 35… LOL
Hey Ark!
Ark – what’s he gonna be for Easter? My godson and my other friend’s son are both gonna be Iron Man. I guess he’s what’s hot in the streets right now.
LHM – according to ‘this b*tch’, my eggs are turning to dust every day since I hit 30. If I get married at 38 maybe we’ll start trying at 39. I don’t know man… we’ll see what God has in store. I still don’t even like to hold babies so this whole conversation is kinda far-fetched right now.
Why is my wax chick gonna be in Vegas at the SAME hotel this weekend….
I told her that we can all hang out, but heyall she may not notice me with some curtains on my crotch.
Love, pepperjack is one of my fave cheeses!
Lovely, for Easter?! lol He said Spiderman. We’ll see when we go to buy him an outfit. That boy changes his mind like the wind. You should see him when I reward him with a toy truck. He loves them! He will stand there for awhile then chose one, then put it back and chose another, then put it back and chose another, etc. He does this until I tell him if he doesn’t pick a truck, he’s not getting one.
Lovely ain’t nothing wrong with having a niglet at that age… You are established, so fock what anybody else thinks…..
AKG I’d do you and Halle, but I think I’d do you first….
oh Lord… My heart just froze while I was laughing at the coochie curtain!!
ARK – gotta love a man that thinks through his options before making a final decision!!
MWM – thanks! ya’ll make me feel better
just wanted to post something here….
Lovely you made me have a flashback, to when MWM II was born and we brought that lil niglet home from the hospital, me and Ms. MWM didn’t know shat, we put him in his crib and just looked at him for like 20 minutes and looked at each other and said what the fock we do now?
Ark; what up boo? what that thang looki…oh nevermind you aint been around in awhile dont know if you brand new now or what?
–> anyway as I walked thru walmart yesterday…this lady eye fvcked the shyt outta me…lol I was still lookin daper with my suit on #nshyt…she glanced me up and down…then gazed into my eyes with this ‘boy i would ride yo to sleep look’ as we approached…even peeked back as she passed me by…i was like dayum…I aint even get to strap up first…she had a fat azz tho…lol OAN: its so crazy out here…like if a lady even shows an inkling of interest…I know if I have an opportunity to converse with her…I can pull her…conversation most definitely rules the nation…where GHank at…I could share some ish with him…not even tryna jone either…just saying…
I just bought a new car. I bought a 2010 Kia Rio. I went straight economy. It’s the smallest car I’ve ever owned, but hey, I have a piece of mind as far as maintenance is concerned. The brakes went on my 1999 Chevy Blazer with 184,332 miles on it and I was looking at the very least a $1300 bill. Besides, as little as it’s being mentioned, gas is slowly creppin up.
I have to admit that the stereo system in the Kia Rio is nice. I was playing Big Daddy Kane and Kool Mo Dee like nobody’s business. “Ain’t No Half-Steppin”……
Whe did kids atart dressing in costumes for Easter?
Easter, halloween, same difference. Ya’ll know what I meant
MWM – so what did ya’ll do?
He’s the freak of the week!
or a d*ck for hire… this dude gets more chicks than an NBA player.
Lovely we freakin winged it, we learned, trail and error all kids are different now he’s a young man in college so I guess we didn’t fock up to bad… lol
ARK…I was thinking about you. The picture of Nia Long on her 40th bday reminds me soooo much of YOU!!!
Oh I forgot to mention he’s a pretty good man whore too….
Lovely….you can’t have kids until you learn the difference between Halloween and Easter!!!
Letmein she has ho costumes for both so she good….
LOL @ MWM. You may want to stick with the Mrs bc I will take ALLLLL of your check. I can’t let the kids suffer.
SB, you still talking these women out of their draws, huh?
Letmein, you know Nia is my sister in my head. lol
Man, I just back from a little ‘wedding shower’ for a coworker of mine. Her wedding is in like 3 weeks…these past 4 weekends I have been to 4 straight weddings…hers will make 5. Is this the wedding season? sheesh…
MWM – I guess that’s what most parents do… I didn’t know if ya’lls mama’s came over and told you what to do/how to do it.
I’ve never really dealt with a baby other than my goddaughter and her mom/dad were never more than 2 feet away when she was young so I’ll really be clueless.
I can see me now asking if Borders carries “Parenting for Dummies”. Can babies take 2 baths a day like me? How do I clean their nose without hurting them? (snot nosed kids disgust me)
I have zillion questions to answer in the next 5-6 years.
LETMEIN – I don’t know what made me type Easter…
hmmmmmmmmmmmm, Niglet Jr is in college… is he hot? can he drink yet?
I could be your daughter in law!!
LOL @ MWM!! I’m sooo not ready for my son to be a man whore
For some reason my last two comments are not going through. Anyway, I posted a few pics on FB from this past weekend. I got another sew-in. I think I’m ad.dic.ted
Lovely why not marry the ninja now but still have the kid at 40.
Ark: meant to tell you….I took a look at some pics of you earlier…and was like dayum…she sexier than a bytch…just thought I’d share…lol
OJ – I’m anti-marriage… thought you knew that. That’s why I say I hope I’m ready by then…
MWM – I sure do!! it’s call a birthday suit!!
SB – sexy than a b*tch is funny as hell!! You’re so country but I love it!!
SB, you still got my number.
Lovely, I’m telling you, your instints will kick in. I remember when I first brought O home. Everytime he cried, I cried. But after awhile I figured he was hungry or needed changing. lol
Love y’all are basically married anyway. It would just be a piece of paper. You can’t let other people’s failed marriages sway you.
I bought some almond cheese from whole foods today. It is delish. Tastes just like cheese.
I’d kill for a piece of fish hot out the skillet! Mmmmm
