Tuning the Mood

As ambitious as I was about starting this year out on the good foot I have still managed to find myself here battling the taupes. Aside from my many other pressing problems, my PC is going down hill fast. Its slower, having to load and blow that loud ass fan more frequently, making me have to rethink and remember my thoughts as I wait... grrrr. I'm close to putting it out of its misery, just a couple more weeks for financial aid to roll around and it will be all good in the hood. I was prepared to sit here and rant and rave about it, until I fired up my bTunes. Keyshia made everything all better. I jumped up and my inner Tina took over. Shaking my shimmy, and everything else that shimmies, up and down the hallway. You shoulda seen me. I WAS Ms. Bar B Fierce! All I was missing was this dress.


In black of course. Truth is, I really do wanna be made over. I want the taupes to leave me alone, I wanna laugh in the face of the pass and say, "I made it." I want the healing process to begin already. Healing takes an amount of skill. It has to be organized and it doesn't happen over night. Its not just a simple process of forgive and forget, some real work has to be put in to get to a point in life where you really are able to move on. To live and let live. I'm ready to do the work and dancing is a great prelude.

You should post a video of yourself on your blog of you Tina Turnering through your house.

Haha. If only I had a webcam, or a pc that wasn't about to croak, or... well, you get the point.

Considering being Tina for Halloween this year (yep, thinking Halloween already), so look out for the dress, the wig, fishnets and a lot of thigh this October!

The taupes have been trying to make their way in. In fact, I think I see them in here somewhere...just waiting for me to slip. Nope, can't do it! Hang in there!

I'm hangin'. 8 more days until the real pressure kicks in, so I have to at least save myself for then, lol.

same thing here. i just wanna curl up in the bed all damn day. i'm not sure what it is.

eventually i'll come out of it. hopefully. but i'm also due for some sort of newness. don't know what that could be...

and i feel ya on shakin' the shimmy! i'm forever in here singing to the top of my lungs and dancing around. it helps keep me sane.

Ms. Bar B,

Usijali! Mambo yata get better.

I do hope that the taupes pass quickly. I have been there and am finally experiencing a reprieve. I am sure that the dancing helped out a lot. Keep moving, that is sure to make a difference.

@ Tie and Renee: Sounds like "the taupes" are wide spread, but we wont let them keep hold of us =).

@ Mama Shujaa: Asante sana kwa well wishes yako (don't have my dictionary handy, lol)
