Happy birthday to my friend Jake.

Somebody is gonna make me do some shit I did not want to have to do.

For the past four weeks someone has been stealing our Saturday morning (St. Louis Post Dispatch) newspaper. The Saturday delivered edition comes in two parts; one has the bulk of the news and the other has all of the sale ads (and comics) that you would normally get in a Sunday five star edition. JT and I suspect that it may be one of our neighbors. Last week, when JT took me to my early morning hair appointment, once again only one of our papers were outside. Surprisingly, when he came home after getting his haircut, the other paper was mysteriously sitting at our doorstep. The delivery man does not come up two set of stairs and nicely sit our papers at our doorstep. He throws them suckas up on the grassy hill!!

This is clue number one that one of my neighbors took the paper.

I am not going to get into the other clues at the moment…

The problem is that my Mama taught me that you always ask for something, you do not just take and grab what you want. Tell me what the hell is wrong with just asking to use the paper when I am done? Nothing? Aaah okay that is what I thought…

Do not take what is mine without asking…

If you do, you shall be on my shit list…

God does not like ugly. Whoever is stealing my papers is being very ugly and I am going to act a damn fool when I find out (with hardcore evidence) who is stealing our papers.

It is a shame that I am going to have to get up early on my day off, set up my Sony camcorder on a tripod and record all morning activities through my blinds.

mis S n E X us (7:18:28 AM): I am highly pissed off about some moron stealing my gotdamn saturday newspapers
mis S n E X us (7:18:41 AM): I suspect that it is one of my neighbors
Jake (7:19:24 AM): ha!@

mis S n E X us (7:19:52 AM): I’m gonna set up my camera and catch their ass on tape
mis S n E X us (7:19:56 AM): fuckers
mis S n E X us (7:20:13 AM): that shit is not free

I shall keep you all posted on any future related events.

In other annoying news…

I did not even know that people on AIM still spam others in instant messages:

miamigrl7310 (7:24:39 PM): Whats up sexy? :-) I just started up my webcam and was wondering if you wanted to come watch, its completely free, I work for donations :-). click here to watch my LIVE webcam for FREE i’ll be waitin for ya with my pretty pink vibrator ;-)

AIM would not even let me warn her ass. What is the point of warning if you cannot use the shit?

As anxious I was to see some pretty pink vibrator action, I resisted clicking the link. Of course this was not as funny as when my friend asked me if I had any phish for AOL a couple of months ago. After laughing my ass off, I just had to ask him if they still have AO-servers, yanno the servers on AOL that have the mp3s, software, videos and such. I used to live in those servers 25-8 about four years ago. With a T-1 connection during my junior and senior years there was absolutely no stopping me. Back in the day when people were like Napster what? Aaah those were the days. I remember over the span of about three days once, I downloaded each and every one of my favorite 80s hits. Bangles, A-Ha, Duran Duran, Prince, Pointer Sisters, Michael Jackson, Lionel Richie… and I remember my buddy Jason schooled me to some other 80s music that I had never even heard. We had this friendly competition of who could have the most mp3s. At one point, I had about 1,500 songs on my little 7.4GB hard drive that is sitting about six from me now.

All this talk about downloading music makes me think about RIAA in the news now. I really can care less and I am going to keep doing my thang, soooo moving right along…

It only takes one little thing to change the entire mood of an evening. How did I know it was coming?

My evening was great until a few moments ago.

But let us rewind until this morning.

I woke up around 9am and called Nikki to go Party City to check out prices of bridal shower paraphernalia. Most of the day involved finishing up the bridal shower invitations and rushing them off to the post office. We made a few other stops along the way. I wanted to get a flag shirt at Old Navy, but they only had the ugly olive t-shirts left UGH.

After buying two books of stamps and mailing off the invitations, Nikki and I browsed around the mall for a bit. Dillards had a great clearance on some sandals, but of course they did not have my size!! I have been cursed with big feet. Well, size ten is not that big, but for a woman it is just not a common size. I thought I could get away with a size 9½ sandal then little did I know that my damn left foot is bigger than my right foot. WTF… yes my left heel hung way the fuck over the sandal compared to my right foot. I was truly flabergasted by this. So I threw a pair of Bass sandals and the salesman and said “how about these?” (Un)lucky me, they did not have those in my size either.

I am still trippin about my big left foot…

Anyway, Nikki found her a pair of sandals and I found a Nine West purse marked down from $59.99 to $14.75. I could not resist.

I am sick of people at work that offer their help to you “whenever you need it” yet when time comes to the point when you need it, you politely ask for their assistance (to see if they are not busy and willing), then they look at you like you have just bothered them to no end.

Or they will say, “do you have training in that,”… “didn’t you learn that in training?”

What that statement and question really means is, “I’m too stupid to answer your question, so let me try to belittle you by asking if you were trained in it.”

Of course first and foremost I admire people who know what the hell they are talking about. There are a couple of people at work that I can nearly ALWAYS count on for help. Secondly, I also admire the person who doesn’t know what they are talking about, BUT will admit that they simply do not know. Just tell me “I don’t know,” instead of bullshitting with this talk about was I trained in it. Whether or not I was trained in the subject is not the question. The question is, can you help me with my problem YES or NO and if not shut your ass up so I can find someone that CAN help me.

I don’t have time for all that beating around the bush shit at work.

Last night, I had the worst Charlie Horse ever in my left calf muscle.

Ok so all Charlie Horses feel this way, but still…

Anyway, I stretched out my legs and suddenly a pain shot to my leg like it was a roasting turkey leg over an open fire. I felt like screaming but no sound would come out. I felt helpless until I willed the pain away which took a few minutes. Yeah I had to use mind control because massaging my leg did absolutely nothing for me. This morning, my calf muscle is still a little tender.

If a Charlie Horse feels this bad in my calf muscle I shudder to think about what it feels like in other areas. Thankfully, I have not experienced this.

Yesterday, there was definitely something in the air or everybody and they mama was smoking crack over the Memorial Day weekend. I swear people were acting

quite looney yesterday. At work we had over 200 calls in queue for most of the day and at one point, over 300. Downtown, people were driving crazier than

normal. So what in the hell happened over the weekend? You ate too much barbeque and now you got the worst case of indigestion ever? Got gas from all that

potato salad you ate? Uncle Willie drank to much at the family gathering? Wha what tell me what happened, so I can understand why y’all were acting like a

damn fool yesterday.

The next couple of months will be crucial at the work place. I need to get motivated and apply to some more jobs. My networking has slowed down a bit, so

I’ll have to look to other alternatives. Sometimes I’m not really feeling Monster.com. They often give me

listings of the same job three times in one day. I can’t seem to get my profile the way I want it either. Anyone know of better places than

For all of you doubters, rebates really do work (well most of the time). I would say in the last few months out of all the rebates I have mailed off for

from Best Buy, I have received 80% of them back. Ten dollars here and twenty dollars there arriving in the

mail is always nice to see :D The only time I don’t buy something for a rebate is when the deal of the purchase depends too much on the rebate; i.e. a

Friday Five

1. How many houses/apartments have you lived in throughout your life?

Eight.

2. Which was your favorite and why?

The one on Aldridge Street was my favorite because I grew up there and that’s where my Papa was.

3. Do you find moving house more exciting or stressful? Why?

Extremely stressful, because I wait until the last minute to pack. It starts out very organized, each box is nicely packed and labeled

‘Kitchen Stuff Here,’ but then when it comes to crunch time, I start throwing random things that happen to fit in a box, pack, tape and

go.

4. What’s more important, location or price?

Location.

5. What features does your dream house have (pool, spa bath, big yard, etc.)?

Small movie theatre, bowling alley, indoor and outdoor pool, spa, basketball court, internet networked throughout the entire house,

darkroom, editing room, entertainment room, at least five main bedrooms, two guestrooms, tennis court, bathroom in each main bedroom,

full bath in basement, bathroom in between the two guestrooms, full size bar in basement, big screen televisions in master bedroom,

entertainment room and basement, elegant dining room, living room, three car garage…. I could go on and on.

Go shizzolate a site, thanks Adam :D

I feel like wearing and outfit, so I can show off my camel

toe today. How about that Jake?

Umm, why did they need an American Idol reunion with the top 30 singers? I enjoyed Tamyra singing, ‘A House is Not a Home,’ but otherwise, the little that I watched was a complete waste of my time. More than half of them sound horrible. There’s a reason why they didn’t make it in the top ten.

A few days ago, my scanner went kaput while I was scanning a DirecTV listing. The glue on the glass from the flatbed scanner loosened and pulled away which caused the scanner to get stuck everytime it tried to scan something. This was a birthday present from JT. My wonderful man bought the warranty on the scanner and BestBuy replaced the scanner for him yesterday. JOY.

Black Exploitation Television is coming out with their rendition of MTV Cribs, entitled How I’m Living. “Spend an evening inside R&B sensation R. Kelly’s indoor rainforest.” Umm, I hope there’s nothing up in there to incriminate him or *cough* his brother.

St. Louis Cardinals have clinched their division, but what the hell is going on with the St. Louis Rams?

I’m sitting here watching Soaps ( One Life to Live is on now) and updating my site; a regular routine for my days off. I had this major headache on the way, so I put my magnetic headband on about twenty minutes ago. Headache is slowly… going… away.

I have this evening with JT to look forward to at Troy’s On the Park.

I’m also chatting with friends on AIM. I IMed a couple of friends asking them to rate my blog.

So I IMed Vad…

I2ayne (1:13:29 PM): whats a “blog”?
neXylicious (1:13:39 PM): a Journal :-P
I2ayne (1:13:48 PM): gm
I2ayne (1:14:03 PM): this isn’t really a journal, it’s more of a like, news kinda site.
I2ayne (1:14:32 PM): it’s a good way to waste 10 mins of your time :-).

My site is not just a journal, it’s a plethora of information; my life, shit happening around me, news, opinions, etc. To me that’s

what a blog is all about. One day, I want missnexus.com to become a community but I’m fine with how it is right now.

The entire conversation….

I2ayne (1:13:29 PM): whats a “blog”?

You know, curiousity is always there.
neXylicious (1:14:33 PM): since you don’t know what a blog is, i simplified what it is by just saying blog.
neXylicious (1:14:41 PM): *journal
I2ayne (1:14:58 PM): The layout itself is good,
neXylicious (1:15:29 PM): blog= journal, news, opinion, politics, debates, whatever i want it to contain
I2ayne (1:15:31 PM): btw, you know the “up-arrow” link button? I hate that shit. :/
