Why the hell…

by Courtney Elizabeth · October 3, 2006 · Life ·

Did my laptop just delete my Group Project that I’ve been workin on for the past 3 weeks? :wtf:

Squidwirth *my laptop* will be suffering death by smashing. I’ll have to revert to Dora *my desktop* in order to get this crap done. This is cutting into my Gilmore Girl’s time. *sigh*

Well…I think everything is on track for my party next Friday. I think….. Evite has been sent..25 “Yes” responses. Things seem to be going OK. :thumbsup: Bri’s flying in from New York, and pretty much all the folks that i want to be there *besides a few out of towners* will be there. even Shaun and Kim are coming. I dont know if Jenny will be there, but I HOPE so…things have been really good between us lately. Love my cousin to death. But anyways, no complaints here.

I got a lot of errands done today, so I was happy about that. And now…..now i just feel like relaxing.

 Party Planning...I forgot to post the photos of the stuff that I got from the WONDERFUL seller on Ebay.

I’m gonna go watch The First 48 on A&E with Incog. I think I’ve missed like…half of it already….and that’s not cool. Love that show…
Happy Friday!

Stay Blessed.

Black Women today…

by Courtney Elizabeth · September 24, 2006 · Life ·

thumb IMG 4055 400 Black Women today...What’s REALLY going on?

Just browsing the internet, you can really learn alot about the state of black women today….

It kills me when I see black women down talking eachother and their “skills” on the internet. And what makes it worse is that it’s usually the cute/pretty black women. Don’t they realize that they make themselves look sooo bad when they do that? When they bring up GOD in their biographies…and how much He has done for them, but in the next breath…talk about how they’ll do this or that to their boyfriends…. :shocked: Have some dignity…or at least keep it to yourself, so as to not make the black women who ARE trying to do something with their lives look bad.

In the words of my pRHOphyte…if you’re feeling offended, remain that way.

sad state of affairs. sad state of affairs. icon cry Black Women today...

It’s Sunday. we just got back from Church. I’m going to go into the living room and watch some football with incog….some of these girls gimme headaches. lol

  • Sidenote: I think i’ve narrowed down my choices of programs for my PhD. Keep me in your prayers.

stay Blessed. :pray:

Big Red is Dead.

by Courtney Elizabeth · September 22, 2006 · Life ·

 Big Red is Dead.  Big Red is Dead.

Big Red died while I was sleeping last night. I had washed him and his family off yesterday and placed them in the refrigerator so that they’d be crisp enough to cut into my Vanila Almond Clusters…but he died. And so did the rest of his family.

Maybe I should have a funeral service. Or maybe I should just go back to Trader Joes and let them know what I REALLY think of their “Fresh in the store, Die at home” strawberries. hmpgh. :shocked:

  • Weight Loss Update: 2 lbs down.

Have a great weekend ya’ll…I’M going to get some new strawberries…

Here we go again…

by Courtney Elizabeth · September 20, 2006 · Life ·

After reading Schatzi’s blog, I was reminded that i need to get back on track with this weight loss thing. icon sad Here we go again...

Watching ANTM:7 tonight FURTHER inspired me to get back on track. I could be one of those girls up there if I stop stuffin my face and eating so much bread…..and start working out again. Some of those girls were a little….:sick: My elliptical is collecting dust. My excuse is always…well, i just paid to get my hair pressed…and us black women who dont have perms know that when you get your hair pressed…if you just walk outside, and it’s a tad bit humid, your hair snaps right back into the natural curl. Nothing wrong with it….but it’s a bust after you’ve paid to get it done….and if you know me, you know i like the silky straight.

In any case, my birthday and birthday party are the same day (October 6th). So my goal is *best Harvey impression*….3lbs. icon cry Here we go again...

I’m going to use this as my before photo since it’s rare that you’ll find a full body shot of me :pissed::

Welp…here we go again! Wish me luck!

Think Before You Speak.

by Courtney Elizabeth · September 19, 2006 · Life ·

FROM KOOLBREEZE‘s blog…this was HIGHLARIOUS….

Here are six reasons why people should think before they speak.
Have you ever spoken and wished that you could
immediately take the words back…
or that you could crawl into a hole?
Here are the Testimonials of a few people who did….

FIRST TESTIMONY:

I walked into a hair salon with my husband and three kids in tow
and asked loudly,
“How much do you charge for a shampoo and a blow job?”
I turned around and walked back out and never went back
My husband didn’t say a word…
he knew better.

SECOND TESTIMONY:

I was at the golf store comparing different kinds of golf balls.
I was unhappy with the womens type I had been using.
After browsing for several minutes, I was approached by one of the good-looking gentlemen who works at the store. He asked if he could help me.
Without thinking, I looked at him and said,
“I think I like playing with men’s balls.”

THIRD TESTIMONY:

My sister and I were at the mall and
passed by a store that sold a
variety of candy and nuts.
As we were looking at the display case,
the boy behind the counter asked if we needed any help.
I replied, “No, I’m just looking at your nuts.”
My sister started to laugh hysterically.
The boy grinned, and I turned beet-red and walked away.
To this day, my sister has never let me forget.

FOURTH TESTIMONY:

While in line at the bank one afternoon,
my toddler decided to release
some pent-up energy and ran amok.
I was finally able to grab hold of
her after receiving looks of disgust
and annoyance from other patrons.
I told her that if she did not start behaving
“right now” she would be punished.
To my horror, she looked me in the eye and said in a
voice just as threatening,
“If you don’t let me go right now,
I will tell Grandma that I saw you
kissing Daddy’s pee-pee last night!”
The silence was deafening after this enlightening exchange.
Even the tellers stopped
what they were doing.
I mustered up the last of my dignity and
walked out of the bank with my daughter in tow.
The last thing I heard when
the door closed behind me,
were screams of laughter.

FIFTH TESTIMONY:

Have you ever asked your child a question too many times?
My three-year-old son had a lot of problems with potty training
and I was on him constantly.
One day we stopped at Taco Bell for a quick lunch
in between errands.
It was very busy, with a full dining room.
While enjoying my taco,
I smelled something funny,
so of course I checked
my seven-month-old daughter, she was clean.
The realized that Danny
had not asked to go potty in a while.
I asked him if he needed to go,
and he said “No”.
I kept thinking
“Oh Lord, that child has had an
accident, and I don’t have any clothes with me.”
Then I said,
“Danny, are you SURE you didn’t have an accident?”
“No,” he replied.
I just KNEW that he must have had an accident,
because the smell was getting worse.
Soooooo, I asked one more time,
“Danny, did you have an accident?”
This time he jumped up,
yanked down his pants,
bent over,
spread his cheeks
and yelled
“SEE MOM, IT’S JUST FARTS!!”
While 30 people nearly choked to death on their tacos laughing,
he calmly pulled up his pants and sat down.
An old couple made me feel better,
thanking me for the best laugh they’d ever had!

LAST BUT NOT LEAST TESTIMONY:

This had most of the state of Michigan laughing for 2 days
and a very embarrassed female news anchor who will,
in the future, likely think before she speaks.
What happens when you predict snow but don’t get any!
We had a female news anchor that,
the day after it was supposed to have snowed and didn’t,
turned to the weatherman and asked:
“So Bob, where’s that 8 inches you promised me last night?”
Not only did HE have to leave the set,
but half the crew did too they were laughing so hard!
