Pay Or Pray


Me: *Walks through the front door*
Mama: Let's go eat at Cracker Barrell, I will pay for our food.
Me: Alright, let's go.
*Gets in car, starts to back out*
Me: Okay, so you're paying? (I ask to Confirm)
Mama: No, I said I would Pray for our food.
Me: *Starts driving back to the house.*
Mama: No you right, OK OK, I pay.
She is always scheming to get over on me. LOL

7 Reasons Why

The 7 Reasons Why Black People Always Die First In Scary Movies I believe that we have all watched our fair share of scary movies. We’ve all seen the opening of a movie, with a woman in the shower. She hears a noise and says, “hello?” And the audience sighs because she gave her location away to the killer. Now imagine a black woman in the shower. She will have her shower cap on and will hear ALL. If she understands anything, it won’t be a hello. It’ll be a goodbye, she will either fight or flight. Imagine your top ten picks and then try to recall the black character in each those films. Did they die off first? Were they killed towards the beginning or middle of the movie? Yeah, let me clue you in as to why. We do not play by any of the rules:  You know those typical ghost stories? Where there is running water, or the doors are slammed or closed behind you while you're brushing your teeth? Yeah, WE don't play that. We would confront it. "Look here g...

What You can't Have

We have all heard the saying, "I always want what I can't have." I believe that human nature has increased our chances of survival. We tend to accomplish things, and we want more and more, sometimes things or people that are not likely for us to have. In other instances, we are continually chasing happiness. Sometimes we see that other people have something that we don't and we believe that is the solution to our unhappiness. Or it could be that subconsciously we know that item or person is out of our reach and it makes us want it even more because we know we can't have it. The human mind can be weird at times. Sometimes our wants, do not need an explanation and sometimes they do. In psychology, this thought process is referred to as the Hedonic Treadmill. It allows us to keep wanting to achieve throughout our lives. https://positivepsychologyprogram.com/hedonic-treadmill/ . Sometimes the lyrics to the song "Waterfalls" by TLC can real...

HEB

One of the most beautiful things in life, in my personal opinion, is the art of cooking. I love to Cook. During the Hurricane Harvey aftermath, I was staying in Manvel with my brother and my sister in law. On occasion, I would have to drive through Alvin, and I realized I needed to stop by HEB. I wanted to make spaghetti, something quick and easy since I was at work for nine hours and had a two-hour commute to and from work, due to the relocation. I had never shopped at the Heb in Alvin before, and I could see why. It was very dimly lit, and it looked sketchy from the outside. The inside was even worse because they didn't have all of the ingredients that I needed to make spaghetti. SPAGHETTI, one of the least complicated meals almost anyone could make. They didn't have any meat such as ground meat, Italian sausage or meatballs. They didn't have the packets of seasoning mix to put in spaghetti or garlic bread. I was so pissed, like what the hell did HEB stand for? Here...
