Things That Drive Me UP THE WALLLLLLL!

Sometimes The World Drives Me Nuts. On A Daily Basis I Find Myself Doing My Wooosaaha's And Using Counting Methods Of Counting From 1 to 100 Just So I Don't Bug Out. I Think This Post Has Been A Long Time Coming. I Get To Vent About My Pet Peeves...Yayyyyy!

1. If You Are A Guy And You Walk Past A Young Lady Who You'd Feel You Want To Pursue Don't Touch Them!

If I Don't Know You From A Hole In The Wall I Do Not Need Your Grubby Little Paws Holding My Arm Talking About " Yo Can I Holla Shorty"...With That Tight Ass Ninja Grip You Got On My Arm I Don't Think I Have A Choice...DON'T TOUCH Any Respectable Lady And You Might Get A Shot Out Of A Billion.

2. Parents Stop Cussing At Children In Public

Sure Those Little People Can Be Bad Ass*s, But Wait Till You Get Behind Closed Doors To Discipline, Use The Eye Instead (Give Them The Once You Get Home I'm Gonna Whup That Butt Eye, That's How My Mom Kept Me In Check). I Don't Need To Be Hearing "Malik Get Your F*cking Dumb ass Over Here". Noooo Not Kool.

3. Bill Collectors STOP Blowing Up My Phone

Yeah I'm A College Student With Alot Of Bills And Growing Debt....Spare Me From The Daily Phone Calls Ranging From 9am - 7pm. Recently It Got So Bad I Told All The Collectors To Stop Calling My Cell Phone And I Gave Them My Home Phone Number Since I'm Barely Home....Smdh.

4. I Hate Men Hoes. Men Hoes Need To Stop Saying Ignorant Things For Example:

"I Got My Main Shorty, My Jumpoff, And My Back Up Main Shorty" GET A GRIP. This Life Gets Pretty Stale FAST And It's Only A Matter Of Time Before It Bites You. Going Down This Route You Are Gonna End Up Having Baby Mama Number 1, Baby Mama Number 2, And An STD/Scorned Woman.

5. Sleeping, Drooling People On The Train

You Ever Had A Long Day, End Up Miraculously Getting A Seat On A Crowded Train, But Then Come To Find Out You Only Got It Because The Person Now Sitting Next To You Keeps Tilting Over Constantly Landing On Your Shoulder! And Then You Gotta Constantly Give Them The Elbow So They Wake Up And Get The Point....Sheesh.

6. People Who Freeload Off Of My Car

If You Say Hey S Jones I Want You To Drive Me To X, Y, Z..... I Can Do It Once In A Blue For Free (Just Out Of The Kindness In My Heart)...But When This Ish Becomes A Tradition Umm Noo....From Now On You Will Get A Show Me The Money! Insurance Is Up The Wall, And Gas Isn't As Expensive But It's A Recession People Times Are Hard. I Take Payments In The Form Of Food Too...Pshhh!

7. Hair Critics

If You See Someones Hair And You Like It Just Say Wow Your Hair Is Nice. Do Not Proceed To Ask Is That All Your Hair? Where Can I Buy That Hair? Is It Wet N Wavy Or Yaky Perm? STFU And Mind Your Business. Do Not Touch My Hair In An Effort To Figure Out If My Hair Is Real Cuz You Will Pull Back A Nub.

8. Guys Who Act Like We Are Still In Elementary School At Work

Unhuh Stop Pulling People's Hair, Throwing Things, Taking Personal Belongings, And Pushing People In An Effort To Flirt....Grow The Hell Up And Start Acting Your Age And Not Your Shoe Size. You Don't Have To Touch Someone To Flirt....Lets Stop Being So Obvious.

9. Guys On The Street Who Say " I Know You Got A Man, But You Can't Have Friends?"

No My Dude.... If I Wanted A Friend Then I Would Let You Know, But Apparently I Have All The Friends I Can Handle So Stop Asking Me That Ridiculous Question. My Boyfriend Is Mentally Unstable And I Must Respect That Now Lemme Alone!

10. Last But Not Least...When I Come Home With A New Pair Of Shoes/Sneakers/Or Clothes I Always Hear These Words From My Parents "Didn't You Buy Clothes/Shoes/Sneakers Last Week"

Nooooooooo I Haven't Invested In My Appearance In Three Months And The First Time I Get Something I Have To Hear Comments From The Peanut Gallery.....If It Were Up To Them I'd Get A New Pair Of Shoes Once A Year. It's Okay Mommy And Papi ....I Got This Handled...lol.

Woooosahhhhh People....Wooooosah....I Feel A Whole Lot Lighter. (Smiles)

S Jones Experiment

• 
  
  Yes Sir Ree Bob....That Picture Right There To The Left (If You Cant Tell) Is Organic Apple Cider Vinegar. I Was Surfing The Net And I Came Across This Site Called EarthClinic.Com It Was Really Informative. On The Site They Have Tons Of Ailments And Plenty Of DIY Treatments That You Can Use. One Of Their Top Remedies Happened To Be Apple Cider.
  
  Apple Cider Is Beneficial To The Body In Many Ways And Apparently Its Not Just Good For Humans It's Also Great For Dogs To Be Washed With (Helps Them Get Shiny Coats).

Let Me Give You The Run Down On All Of The Things That They Say Apple Cider Vinegar "Cures" :

• Acid Reflux ( What I Need It For)
• Acne
• Allergies
• Anti Aging
• Anti Fungal
• Sore Throats
• Dandruff (If You Wash Your Hair With It)
• Weight Loss ( Curbs Your Appetite)

Anyways Folks The List Goes On And On. Reading About People Using Apple Cider As A Home Remedy Amazed Me And The Testimonials For Drinking This Thing Had Me Sold. Sooooooo I Ran Out And Got Me A Bottle To See What The Hype Is About. Be Warned However When I Cracked That Bottle Open For The First Time I Said A Couple Of "Oh Sh*t's" Because That Smell Pimp Smacked The Hell Outta Me. Once I Got Past The Smell I Manned Up And Added Two Teaspoons To My Cup Of Water. Apparently Its Recommended That This Concoction Is Drank Three Times A Day To Really Have An Effect. I'm Gonna Keep It Real And Say This Thing Tastes Horrrrrrrible But The Taste Can Be Helped Out By Adding Some Raw Honey To The Mix. If You Want To Use The ACV For Acne You Can Apply It To Your Face With A Cotton Ball As You Would Do With A Toner.....Of Course You Smell Of Vinegar For A Minute Or Two But It Goes Away....Then Add Your Facial Moisturizer. This "Supposedly" Helps With Dark Spots And Pimples. For Now I'm Just Drinking This Bad Boy, Maybe One Night I Will Be Brave And Apply To My Face...Cuz That Smell Isn't Cute.

Yes So I Will Be Updating In A Week And Report If I Notice Any Changes In My Functioning. Just Call Me S Jones The Guinea Pig...Ha, Over And Out!

Close But Not Quite

The Other Day I Almost Made A Mistake, I Almost Gave My Love Away.

I Almost Let You Break Me Down, I Almost Let All My Guards Down.

I Almost Let You Touch My Heart, I Almost Let Old Feelings Emerge From The Dark.

I Almost Let You See That Other Side, The One That Showed Me Vulnerable And Weak Inside.

I Almost Got Too Comfortable In Your Bed, I Almost Let You Take It There.

I Almost Let You Feel Me From Within, I Almost Committed Another Sin.

I TRUST........

The Other Day I Went To The Library And Picked Up A Book ( If My Boyfriend Saw This Book He Would Think I Was So Corny). The Book Is Called " The Couple's Comfort Book" By Jennifer Louden. This Book Is Pretty Cool, It's Filled With Tons Of Scenarios/Issues That Couples Go Through And It Provides Ways For Couples To Get Past Those Issues. One Section In That Book Which Touched The Nail On The Head For Me Was The Section On Having Trust For Your Partner.

I Feel Like A Horrible Girlfriend Sometimes Because I Admit That Although I Love My Boyfriend Up Until A Month Ago I Didn't Completely TRUST Him. I'm Not Talking About Any Type Of Trust, I'm Talking About The Close My Eyes....Go Outta Town For Six Months...Not Caring Who In The Hell He's On The Phone Texting And Myspacing Cuz I Got That Ass On Lock Trust. A Month Ago Me And The Boo Got Into It Because He Had Gotten A Co Workers Screen Name And I Didn't Like It Because I Felt A Little Threatened....We Both Work In The Same Place And I Know The Girl He Got The Screen Name From But I've Never Had A Conversation With Her( Yet Those Two Had A Friendly/Play Fighting/Flirty Connection). I Felt A Little Uneasy When I Found Out But Because I Vented This To My Boyfriend He Says That He KNOWS For A Fact That I Don't Have Trust In Him And It Clicked To Me In That Moment That I Didn't. I Kept It Real With Him And Told Him I Only Trusted Him 96%...LMAO...Who Says That? So Anywho He Was Offended And I Feel Like I Was Wrong Because He's Never Given Me Any Reason To Believe He Is A Cheat. Why Did My Heart Refuse To Trust Him? After My 96% Confession He Asked Me To Trust Him 100% And From Then On I Have Let Go.... I'm Loving Him With My Eyes Closed And With My Heart In The Air. Lately I Have Been Doing Some Soul Searching And I'm Seeing That Being A Jealous, Overbearing, And Paranoid Girlfriend Is Doing Nothing But Adding Unnecessary Stress To Our Relationship. I'm Not Saying Mister Man Is Perfect ( Cuz He Has Many Faults) But I Don't Give Him Credit Where It Is Due....I Just Automatically Assume The Worst Of Him.

I'm Letting Go Because:

1. I'm In Love Dammit Hell Yea I'm Gonna Enjoy!


2. He's Done Nothing Wrong For Me To Be Investigating And Paranoid About


3. He's Done More Than Enough To Show That He Cares


4. He Is Not His Friends...Just Because They Cheat Doesn't Mean He Will..He's Not Some Mindless Robot.


5. Trust Is The Corner Stone Of A Relationship, If You Don't Have That Then You Don't Have Jack Shit


6. LAST BUT NOT LEAST: I Said Yes To Being His Girlfriend...I Took A Risk, Fell In LOVE And Promised To Be Faithful....If You Love Someone You Have To Do It 100% And Prepare For Heartbreak Because Life Is All About Taking Chances.

Here Is An Exercise From The Book You Can Try With Your Significant Other Guys And Gals:

Have You And Your Mate Grab A Piece Of Paper And A Pencil To Complete The Sentences Below ( Or You Can Do This Verbally). Write As Many Completions To Each Question As You Can Think Of ( Try For Five Each Question). Write Or Say Whatever Comes To Mind, As Quickly As Possible, Without Self Criticism Or Censorship.

• I Cant Let Go Because.........

• I am Holding Onto..........

• I Cant Trust My Partner Because.......

Share Your Answers With Your Partner. Learning About Your Hidden Fears Is The First Step To Being Free Of Them. The Next Step Is Talking About Them, Applying As Much Love As You Can, And Never, Never Making Fun Of Your Partner.

(So Feedback People.....Love Is A Risk For Surrrrre But If We Live In Constant Fear And Paranoia How Can A Relationship Benefit?)
