Honey Chain

i am grateful for…yellow flowers…hummingbirds…petunias growing out of cracks in the sidewalk…rooms full of books…limeade…

so, if you haven’t already, go check it out.

i laughed, i cried, i hummed along.

and i’m already thinking about sweaters. i have yet to knit one but i’m thinking this will be my year. i’m not sure if it should be this one or this one or maybe this. or maybe it should be a heavier sweater like this or this. i just don’t know.

You Are Hip-Hop Music

You are expressive, intense, and often misunderstood. You appreciate being entertained, and you’re not easily offended. You don’t shy from controversy or from having opinions. And while you have a strong personality, deep down you just like to have fun.

What Kind of Music Are You?

i was trying to carry an awkward sized box down to the basement and i forgot to flip the switch for the light because usually that light is on but for some reason it wasn’t and i was losing my grip on the box so rather than put the box down to turn the light on i just kept going and i missed one of the steps and slipped and slid down the stairs and hit myself in the eye with the corner of the box but fortunately my eye was closed and now my eye is a little bruised and my back hurts but mostly i’m okay so then i was hobbling around in my dark basement with my hands held out over my head trying to find a pull chain for a light that burnt out when i turned it on so i went back toward the stairs and tripped over the box and fell up the stairs and decided i was done for today

do we not have moats in this country because they are too expensive and time consuming to install? or is it because they are illegal? because i am so very, very close to diggin’ me a moat along the side of my house and filling it with hungry alligators.

i am grateful to be able to look around my life and see things to be grateful for.

i typed “kiki needs” into google and this is what i got:

kiki needs a chestica simpson weave

kiki needs her own intro music

kiki needs a home

kiki needs to watch her language

kiki needs our prayers

kiki needs mind her own business

kiki needs to shut up

kiki needs some lovin

why it’s a good thing i live alone: i talk to myself.

yesterday, i was slugging around the house. i didn’t want to get dressed and i was having a whole mental discussion with myself about whether or not to get dressed. finally, i decide i don’t have to be anywhere so i don’t really have to get dressed. yay! i can stay in my pj’s. i don’t even have to comb my hair if i don’t want to. then, i blurt out loud “well…at least brush your teeth! don’t be a skank!”
