Howdy Howdy all!

Alright alright Myclette  so you were right! I did indeed do well this semester. I have a 4.0 ya'll and believe me...ya girl scrounged for that all the way...LOL! I called Myclette in hysterics (well not really but I was nervous) about my grades! We didnt get them until Today at Noon and I was at work from 9am to 4:30pm and didnt get home until 5:30pm so I spent the whole friggin day stewing and freaking about what my grades might look like! Anyway they were Fantastic and I am so grateful that I could jump up and down and do a hand stand and moonwalk and....well you get the message. Okay ya'll I am officially back on the block and will start lurking about on your blogs and commenting all willy nilly now that the scare and the crunch is over...Well first I gotta do some laundry but then I will get back to the business of checking yall out...

First things first, ya'll know that the end of the year is upon us and so we should all be thinking about getting our annual physicals and well-woman exams! Go to www.PlannedParenthood.com for locations near you and get some very affordable preventative treatment. If you don't jive with them because of whatever reason then please check with your doctor or local state or city sponsored medical department for affordable exams--YOU TOO FELLAS! The thing with planned parenthood is that they will let you pay whatever you can afford to pay (I have insurance but I still hit them up for services and USE my insurance to pay so that they can use their services for folks who are actually needy). They provide a number of services from parenting classes, gyno exams to prenatal care...okay I will stop the public service announcement right after I say that if you are nervous about going, enlist a friend...if any of you live in Houston I volunteer to go with you!  and hold your hand during the whole thing (well not DURING). I plan to hightail it there myself at the FIRST of the year, you all do the same please!

Okay onto your financial health! Go to https://www.annualcreditreport.com to recieve your FREE annual credit report through Trans Union, Equifax or Experian. See what is what and be sure to DISPUTE any items that don't jive with your facts! It is free and easy and can be done ALL online!

Enough of this stuff---

Okay so ya'll know about the fun birthday times that I had, right? Well here are some fantastic photos of said goodtimes!

I got a buncha cool stuff including A ship that Myclette got me along with some yummy Happy Bunny Lip Gloss! I can't post a pic of the ship because for some reason my camera wont take a pic of it that is not crazy blurred out...the sails are stark white and with or without the flash it is just a big white blurr! Anyway I collect ships and I ALWAYS want one for any occassion! So thanks Myclette you're the keenest! Now Torridgirl also got me something fun and fancy! This tee--which aint nuthing but the truth-- and this cd that has Indian music infused with hip-hop beats! It is off the chain!

Okay so once again my friend T from NYC came down for the holiday and my birthday (or so I like to think) and we had a blast! I drank but not as much as I Could have, and everyone was thankful for that! HA!

Then there was the Amaretto Sour, the Midori sour and the blowjob Hail, Hail the gangs all here! Its T, environgirl (that's me ya'll), Torridgirl , and the one and only Cocoa Goddess--Myclette ....T's cousin Gerald is snapping the photo, he was great as well but I didnt get a photo of him like I thought I did!

And by the end of the night, you can see that my headband from the photo above is conspicuously absent as is my sobriety! My tee reads "I'm kind of a big deal, and it was a gift from the roomies! Birthdays are Fun ya'll!

Okay that is all for now, how about some poetry...here goes...(I haven't forgotten about you doll....who could?)

I, Made Of Stone

Venturing outside so nonchalant, I smile
Inhaling deeply of the breeze
When it strikes me
This air is pleasant but unremarkable, less than delicious.
Just then, from down the street
Comes the squeal of an axle
As a digging machine maneuvers, unseen
And for a split-second it is the cry of a seagull
And the ebbing, flowing traffic, the tide.
I, born of the city, made of stone (so it seems, at times)
I, flourishing in fields of concrete and forests of steel
With no warning, discomfort reaches for me
My habitat turns hollow and gray
Under sunlight thin as a cloth too often washed.
I crave the wild wind, the growing green and boundless blue.
To walk an unmarked path
(Not smoothed for celebrity-endorsed shoes)
To seat myself on a non-ergonomic patch of terrain
To watch clouds that never knew the sly touch of Adobe.
Great. Next I'll be eating hummus and burning patchouli oil.--Jax Marie Miller
