Decadence huh? Makes me think of chocolate so I can get wit it.....i stole this offa Sevens blog..thanks girlie!

On Friday....

i plan on eating chocolate mousse cheesecake for dinner with a glass (bottle?) of wine to wash it down...i plan on sitting on my couch with the air on 78 (so the air is blowing but its not really cool) and reading a book....i might light a few candles....who knows what will happen, plans always change...all i know is it sounds like a good way to start the weekend....

Where I want to be....

im sitting at work...waiting for this shuttle to blast off so i can finish my page for work...its funny, kinda, well no, not really...this news business....this morning we had a little meeting about this shuttle thing...my boss was like if it takes off smoothly then you take the story and put it on your page but if sumthin happens then grab it off AP and use it for the front page...its crazy how in this news business you have to think of events differently, you cant get your emotions into until after the paper is sent to the press...*shrugs shoulders*....yeah.....


but anyway...i was sifting through my journal and came across my list of place i want to visit...so here they are in no specific order....
miami (again)
myrtle beach
puerto rico
san tropez
california
aruba
texas
africa
jamaica
egypt
bahamas
Washington, D.C.
london
las vagas
paris
cozumel
arizona
venice
morrocco
amsterdam
rome
bermuda


im still adding to the list whenever i see a place the peeks my interest....i like making list i have all sorts of lists in my journal....

i have this thought of doing a blog entry on people perceptions...some recent conversations has sparked some questions...i need to wrap my mind around my thoughts a little more....

So Sexy.....

i am going to start the book "Assata:An Autobiography" this weekend....
i went to Barnes and Nobles yesterday and got six books using some gift cards my mom gave to me....
i ended up getting a new dicitonary and thesaurus and a new grammer book along with Assata's book and a couple random fiction "novels"....
i was going to get an anthology of erotica but i wasnt feelin it yesterday...not feelin like reading about sex....


so this weekend i am catching up on my magazine reading...i have 2 cosmos and 2 glamours that were delievered while i was out of town....and i am going to break in to some of my new books....

since joining this Sexy B Challenge put on by Bluecypher i have been contemplating what makes me feel sexy....right now just the thought of lounging around my apartment, in my Vicki's robe, reading books and magazines in the bed with a possible glass(es) of wine is sexy to me...

sitting on the couch last night, with my candles lit, slowly eating an amazing piece of Cheesecake Factory Chocolate Mousse Cheesecake was sexy to me...

i might slide on some make up and a cute skirt, go grab a bite to eat at this cute little thai resturant on friday or saturday and just chill with myself and people watch, that is feelin kinda sexy to me right now....

i am definitely going to go to bath and body works and make some purchasees cause smelling good is also sexy to me...

right now, at this moment, i feel sexy cause i am working and using my talents to produce something....i am independent and i feel free and happy.....


im done...

My Trip to Lake Tahoe...

We stopped on the outskirts of Reno before heading up into the Sierra Nevada mountains... 

Me posing on the rocks....Clearly i was not dressed to be climbing but i did it anyway with my Louie.... 

A shot of the rocks that went down into the water...they were fun to climb on 

More Lake Tahoe....the water was cold but the skyline was gorgeous 

My feet at Lake Tahoe...Climbing rocks in my Chinese slippers

Today is.....

my birthday.......

today i turned 24......

i woke up this morning and 5 minutes later my mom was singing happy birthday into the phone she then passed the phone to my father who decided to do the same thing.....they are waaay to cute...once i get back to indy im plan on driving up to visit them and my big bro....

my big bro sent me the greatest text message today...it said...."happy birthday sister! i call you when my minutes are free. love u."....and he gave me a quick call a little later, we are going to hang out this weekend.....

now my first real boyfriend...the first one to ever step foot inside my bedroom, the first one my parents interrogated, the one i first said i love you too, and the first one i cheated on once i went to college....yeah that one...well he decided to call me this morning also to wish me a happy birthday...i didnt know he had my number....well anyway...he tells me happy birthday then proceeds to add "since some people dont remember other people birthdays"....his birthday was last month, i remembered it, but i had never programmed his phone number in my phone and i was thinkin bout callin him even if i did have his number.....anyway, he also wanted to inform me that he was busy planning his wedding....but he said it in a way like i was supposed to beg him not to get married...i mean congrats and all but...well i dont really care.....

my boy demo also called me this morning, this was before my parents called and before i had actually waken up so all he got was a few incoherent thoughts.....but i did give him a call back later to chitchat....

my best friends called me and showed me some love...as they always do...they are great friends....drea and pru....my aces.....i miss them sumthin terrible....sometimes i wish we could go back to the dorms where we hung out and ate chicken and hawaiian bread and water and fruit cause we were too broke to get our own food and had to divide it up between us....those are my girls, and i really value the sisterhood....my girl drea told me she is sending me some shoes1!! i love when she buys me shoes, she has the greatest style!

i talked to the man in my life all throughout the day....a wonderful gentleman....yall dont need to know anymore about that though.....just know he makes me happy.....

lets see....since im out in reno for this copyediting training i have bonded pretty well with my 7 classmates and instructor...they got me good today....my instructor was dragging me around campus after lunch to stall me from seeing them sneak a chocolate cake into the building...now its 90 sumthin degrees outside and i have on a camisole and a thin sweater, its hot as hell and im just walkin and talkin wondering when i was going to get into the air conditioning.....but its was cool, lots of candles and fun....we ate cake and then....my instructor gives us some editing drills and stylebook quizzes..what a great way to spend a birthday, lol....

also the fellowship graduation is tomorrow so we have been busy getting ready for it plus we have a big project due tomorrow....but overall a decent birrthday, not my ideal birthday but a decent one....i cant wait to get back home see my family, drive my car, sit naked in my apartment and go grocery shopping.....mundane yes, but i miss my regular little life, lol....

i just washed my hair and i am at the journalism building "working"....my instructor wants to go out to drinks tonight...i just might have to go....as soon as i fix my hair.....

today.....i turned 24.......and i am a whole, complete person in love with life and living.......cant wait to see what 24 is like....and if i like it i just might decide not to turn 25.......
