Desperately Trying to Fit It All Into One Post

So my favorite Mermaid with feet, Cecilia awarded me with a Happy Award and as part of the stipulations I have to list 10 things that make me happy and award 10 other blogs with the "Happy Award" as well. As the over-thinker that I am (and because it's my first award) I'm getting my little list together that I will post tomorrow on Valentine's day. So bear with me.

I'm trying to get my "Betty Crocker" on and tonight I will be making red beans and rice (imagine me saying that with a Carribbean accent while doing my little rendition of the "dutty whine"). Anywho, I'm hoping it turns out well and if it does, I will post pics (no, not of me doing the dutty whine) and the recipe. Sometimes inspiration comes from an innate urge and sometimes it comes from an outward kick in the arse.
My Innate Urge - Me: "Hmm . . . I need to start eating more fiber. Maybe I'll cook something from scratch."
My Outward Kick in the Arse - The manfriend: "Mmmm, the neighber is cooking something and it smells soooo good. I think I'll call her and see if she'll bring me a plate." (DROPS DEAD as he proceeds to call her) :-x

What is up with my man uhh . . . what's his face . . . "waiting on the wooorld to change"??? . . . ummm . . . John Mayer! That's it. LOL Somebody get John Mayer's PR person on the line, please. I'm not even going to get into what he said, but in light of Black History Month I'm going to extend a courtesy to my Caucasian friends and tell yall what not to say/do around this time . . .
- Do NOT, under aaaany circumstances, utter the N word. It doesn't matter what the context is, whether you're trying to be funny, or whether you make a valid point. Just don't do it. Actually it doesn't matter what month it is.
- Do not reference fried chicken, watermelon or collard greens until after the month is over.
- Do not call yourself or any part of your body a "White supremacist" unless you really are or it really is.
There's nothing wrong with not digging the sistahs John Mayer but "White supremacist dick"?? You're a douche-panther (someone who seemed cool at first, but their douchey-ness snuck up on you like a panther) <--use it, love it, live it

Valentine's day is tomorrow. So I'm curious. What's everybody doing? I don't have anything planned (that I know of) but I love stories so if anybody is doing anything or has an interesting story to share about V-day, I'd love to hear it.

That is all!

Because I'm being random, here's a video with a bunch of random people in it. Enjoy!
