22

I always find myself at work, falling into a daze. I look over to my ipod touch to see that another beautiful song from Jill Scott is playing on Pandora Radio. She always reminds me how Beautifully Human he really is.

He wows me. He is attentive. He compliments me. He caters to me. He understands me. He makes me laugh. He makes me responsible. I can go on and on... 

The 22nd marked a significant amount of months since we met. It is also the same day that Heroes Season Three premiered. Since then, I got him hooked by watching all the episodes from Season 1 and 2 on DVD. It was like our own little "thing." He is now a bigger fan then I am!

Before him, I almost lost my sense of knowing who people are. I had on these "Church Stained Glasses" and when they were shattered, seeing them for who they are can be heart breaking. Even still. It takes a great deal of trust in GOD not to allow the past experiences of others take control of you. I am bigger then that. I am bigger then other people's issues and lack of consideration towards my heart. I once felt damaged...

But he made First-Aid Kit handy. I didn't allow him to put the band-aid on me. He was just there to kiss it when I put it on my heart. He was there when I took it off, as I allowed it to heal. We took turns rubbing cocoa butter on the scar. He was there. Yes, even superman needs a Hero.

Everyone always asked us, when are you guys going to make it official? 

I wanted to take my time. Making sure I wasn't rushing into anything that was important to me! When he gave me that ring on Christmas, it was the first time I told him, "I Love You." Little do you guys know, the ring didn't fit! LOL. We had to send it back to the company. He was determined to get me another one. It was such an amazement to me, that on the 22nd, as we dined in New York City, I found a Golden Box with a Bow on it next to my water. Could it really be? Another ring, just for me! Only this time, it wasn't just "To Happiness" it was a "To Commitment"... when ever I was ready.

Wow was I ready? Could I let love in again?

He wows me. He is attentive. He compliments me. He caters to me. He understands me. He makes me laugh. He makes me responsible. So why not? He smiled at me, we kissed, and we made each other happy, on the 22nd, the day our love was built, we continue the love we have showed each other since we met.

This is our foundation.

I ALWAYS THOUGHT CHILLI'S PERSONALITY IS MUCH LIKE BON QUI QUI

The Blogger Code

It's funny how we bloggers have this secret code that we don't really talk about but we all know is there. Like for one... If your dating someone, you never give out there real name, you always make something up. You can talk about your job and what you do, but don't give out the actual company name. People can google it. Don't put photos of people without there permission. It's proper manners to at least comment on people's blogs that comments on yours. If one of your friends is a blogger, don't tell the world there juicy gossip until they reveal it themselves. Embarrassing photos of friends is well embarrassing, but so much fun to do! You really shouldn't date a blogger, after ya break up, you may end up as a "post." Two bloggers shouldn't date, but an occasion, can hookup or flirt... just keep it a secret for as long as you can. If your a reader and attracted to a blogger, you hit them up telling them how much you love there blog, that's great, but... let them tell YOU about themselves, even if you have read that post already! Bloggers get creeped up when you know so much about them, even thought they wrote it! Talking about sex is ALWAYS welcome, but naked pictures seems like they need to stay on adam4adam. Even though blogging isn't a college essay, its proper manners to proofread and spellcheck! Vague post that are really out there, are just weird. Make a point! Don't make a blog post really long, no one is going to read it. Make sure your blog can be viewed on a phone, cause I mean, its great for the train ride home! Don't have music playing as soon as your blog opens! You have to blog at least once a week. I know you have a life, but we still want to read about yours!  Bloggers will talk about you behind your back to other bloggers, so just keep that in mind. Oh and all bloggers know each other outside of blogging, so be careful what you tell people, the land is small indeed! You can't really lie about what your doing or who you with, cause eventually its going to come out in a blog post somewhere. Do you really need three blogs, is there a way to combine them together? Bloggers appreciate silent readers, and also despise them... Leave a comment! We hate anonymous comments talking bullshit. Just stop! Yes, random silly post are just as good as well thought out post. Always remember that this is my blog and I can say what the hell I want, Im not a journalist! I think that's it...

Don't ever just end a post without some type ending or thought provoking question to the audience... IS THERE ANYTHING I'M MISSING IN THE BLOGGER CODE? :)

Skeletor is Here!

Well for the past couple of years I have been a dedicated toy collector of two cartoon universes of my childhood! One of them is X-men, and my first love is He-Man and the Masters of the Universe. When I was younger, I used to play with these toys and imagine myself on Eternia protecting Castle Grayskull and putting my sword up to the air! Now a days, pay bills and putting food on the table has been taken up most of my time. 

Yet as a collector of this universe, I can sometimes go back to that good feeling of my childhood, and everything just seems OK. So today I got a new figure from the Masters of the Universe Classics line, which are much more similar to the old figures of the 80's yet fully detailed and articulation. Every time a figure comes in, I get excited! So I took some photos of the experience while I was at work...

Which action figures did you play with as a kid?

My sentiments exactly Beyonce...
