#TittyTuesday

Nothing makes me happier than titties, thighs, AND heels in the same picture...

Feeling the spirit!

This is my FAVORITE Christmas song of ALL TIME!  I do like John Coltrane's Drummer Boy, but that's a year-round fave.  I only break out Mimi for the Holidays.  This has been on repeat all day...

 

 

#TittyTuesday !!!

LA has been rainy ALL weekend...this picture is in rebellion of the horrific So Cal weather we're experiencing, and of course I love the rose!  

Black Swan

The holidays are here! I've had friends in town since I got home on Wednesday. We been out every day and night since then, and I had a holiday party to attend yesterday. LA has been a wet *pause* rainy mess, but it's been good ass times. I saw the movie Black Swan today, my first low-key day all week. I definitely recommend it. The costumes and styling are pretty...

Home.

I'm home!  Yesterday was my travel day.  I flew home, and although Virgin America is offering free wifi on all flights until January 2, my bag was so full and my flight was so short, I didn't want to drag my laptop out.  It was nice though, cause I caught up on reading and some personal writing.  My writing consists mainly of connecting with my thoughts and ideas.  It was a really soothing flight, as a result.  Then I touched down and things got hectic.  I went out to eat with my girl to fill our stomachs for the drinking we were going to do later, and then I came home to unpack and get ready for the night.  I had a really nice time.  I only got moderately typsy, and then afterward we headed to an after-hours spot for food.  When I got home, I got a text from a friend, and a family member of theirs has died.  My friend is extremely family-oriented, so this is devastating.  

I got to thinking about the holidays, family and friends, and then this morning my girl and I were talking about meeting up with some other friends of ours for Christmas Eve, and the next comment out of her mouth was, "So what do you want for Christmas?!"  Easy.  I just want her.  My friends and family are all that I need and want.  I seriously cannot even think about gifts.  My friend's situation reminded me that this time is all about connecting and feeling love.  It's about connecting with the people that love you, nurture your soul, and fill your life with love and light.  For some people, this may not include family, which is fine, because friends count as extended family, and spending time with them is equally as important.  Other people, for whatever reason, don't feel they have a network, and in that case, I always say that connecting with people in any way possible is the solution.  There are numerous organizations that need help with various events during the holiday season, and volunteering your time to connect with your brothers and sisters in your community can fill you with much love and light.  

I will be volunteering at a local organization for LGBTQ youth, because a friend of mine recently shared his coming-out story, and a huge part of that was feeling like he wanted to end his life.  This happened last summer, and because he has such a kind spirit, beautiful heart, and despite his many successes, I could never imagine him feeling that way.  It was quite enlightening for someone who has never had an internal battle remotely similar.  Another of my friends also shared his coming-out story recently, and the reaction of his parents brought me to tears.  My friends are all coming out of the darkness and reconciling their feelings and lives, but I think about the people who are still in that darkness, and like I hug and share love with my friends, I feel the need and importance to do it for as many people as possible.  Sure my network is tight and plentiful, but if we all stay in our bubbles, then how we are ever going to collectively grow as a community and people?  

Be blessed and love.

Nudity is very necessary in a civilized society...I firmly believe that ;-P 

She is......GAHTDAMN!!!  

Hugs

Hugs are warm physical expressions of love and connection.  Naturally, I love them...and I def hug & kiss my friends and fam all the time, but yesterday, I got into a small conversation with a chick, and when I got up to leave (we were eating lunch next to each other outside) the girl, not yet finished eating, also got up and hugged me.  Not unusual, for me.  My friends are always surprised, and they even mess with me, about the innumerable interactions I have with people on a daily basis.  I hug my doorman (well, one of 'em, the other's a pervert), talk to almost all my neighbors on my way to walk my dog, strangers while walking, and anyone who helps me in a store.  It's important, I think, to enjoy little connections throughout the day with everyday people, not just your tribe of family and friends.  Point is, conversing with/hugging a stranger is normal, but hugs are usually exchanged after conversations that span longer than 5 (maybe 7?) minutes like this one, unless the person is already a friend of a friend.  I welcomed it though, as always.  I told you, I get so busy I forget time, but I also forget the significant but small side-bar things...like hugs.

All Day.

I can't get enough...this plays on repeat all day.

Busy-lazy.

Today is a un-laced boot, sweats, t-, sports-bra, and bun-on-top-of-the-head day for me...super busy, but tryna keep a relaxed, lazy feel goin'.  Dreamin' about what these could do for my outfit right now...

Mmkay.

Today started out cool.  I met a friend for lunch, and got some work done.  Then, I get a phone call a little while ago...it's one of those calls you want to get, but you hope you're getting it for the right time/purpose/reasons.  I am entirely self-employed, so calls from clients are ALWAYS welcome, EXCEPT when I am out of town, as is the present case.  I don't fly home for just a few more days...so I checked the voicemail they left, hoping it was for a job after my return-flight, but of course, shit doesn't always work out so perfectly.  I cursed the message after hearing the date that they need me for and the rate (cause it's lovely), but I pulled it together, promptly returned the call, and offered my regret for not being able to make it...

I was legitimately annoyed, until I reminded myself that there will be another call, and I can make more calls come my way, because I been on my grind, handling business, and creating good connections.  I also reminded myself that this client called after our last job together, so I'm clearly on their radar, which is always good!  They'll definitely call again.  I'm also OK without the extra money.  Now of course, it woulda put a smile on my face and watching the bank balance grow is always nice, but the important things are handled, and I am a hustler, so one job doesn't make or break me.  Basically, no matter what unfortunate situations we find ourselves in, we have to remember that we make stuff happen for ourselves.  We can make the job offers come with persistence and hard work.  So keep it moving and be positive, cause if we made it happen once, we'll make it happen again...
