Barack Obama wins TEXAS!!!

This is disgusting, appalling, and downright ridiculous. And we [African Americans] dont give each other respect and the credit we deserve. Most of us have to put each other down. That’s why we cant progress.

This guy will definitely be tagged under “Stupid Folks”.

Andy and I went shopping this weekend so I can buy some clothes (and shoes) for work. Anyways, we went to Bloomingdales and I saw a nice pair a pants I wanted to buy. I asked the sales girl how much they were and she said, “One cent.” Andy and I looked at each other and I asked her to repeat herself. She said the pants are “one cent…one penny”.

I was shocked. I just want to say first that the pants are ok. They are not like some expensive pair of pants and I got them for a penny. But the idea that I got a pair of pants for “a penny” is great. I asked Andy to buy the pants for me and he actually didnt have a penny. What a broke a**… He’s just a typical bugaboo. He cant even afford one cent.

Anyways, I had to come out of my pocket and pay the damn penny. It took a lot out of me. That was part of my paycheck. That will be the last time I overspend on a pair of pants. Hee Hee Hee! J/k about Andy. He always buys me what I want… most of the time.

He really didnt have a penny which was funny but he had cash. But of course I wouldnt want him to break a dollar for one cent. I had about 3 pennies, so of course I was rolling in the dough.  Here are a few pics of my purchase…

An Oregon man who used to be a woman says he is pregnant with a baby girl.

Thomas Beatie’s first-person story appears in the April issue of The Advocate, a Los Angeles-based newsmagazine for lesbians, gays, bisexuals and transgendered people.

According to the story, Mr. Beatie was born a woman but decided to become a transgender male and legally changed his sex to male. He had his breasts surgically removed and started bimonthly testosterone injections, but kept his vagina.

Now identifying as male, Mr. Beatie legally married Nancy Beatie, the story says. The pair wanted a biological baby but Ms. Beatie was unable to carry a child. So they decided Mr. Beatie would carry the child.

“How does it feel to be a pregnant man,” Mr. Beatie writes in the article. “Incredible. Despite the fact that my belly is growing with a new life inside me, I am stable and confident being the man that I am. In a technical sense I see myself as my own surrogate, though my gender identity as male is constant. To Nancy, I am her husband carrying our child … I will be my daughter’s father, and Nancy will be her mother. We will be a family.”

Before getting pregnant he stopped injecting testosterone, and his body “regulated itself after about four months,” he writes in the Advocate piece.

One year and nine doctors later, the couple got access to a cryogenic sperm bank and purchased anonymous donor vials for a home insemination. Without the aid of fertility drugs, progesterone or exogenous estrogen, Mr. Beatie got pregnant, he says. But the pregnancy was ectopic, and rarer still, with triplets. After surgery, Mr. Beatie lost all his embryos and his right fallopian tube.

But the second pregnancy has been a success, writes Mr. Beatie: “We are happily awaiting her birth, with an estimated due date of July 3, 2008.”

The National Post could not independently confirm the story. But Michelle Garcia, an editorial assistant at the magazine, said The Advocate verified the pregnancy with Mr. Beatie’s gynecologist. She said a photo on the site of a shirtless, heavily pregnant man sprouting facial hair is indeed Mr. Beatie.

Yesterday, the couple– who run a T-shirt printing company called Define Normal — refused to tell their story, citing U.S. deals with TV and print media outlets.

“It’s a big deal and we want to be able to tell our story,” Ms. Beatie told the National Post. “We’d love everybody on board as long as they’re understanding and are going to tell our story and not their own.”

Mr. Beatie writes in The Advocate that “wanting to have a biological child is neither a male nor female desire, but a human desire.

“Our situation ultimately will ask everyone to embrace the gamut of human possibility and to define for themselves what is normal.”

Ethicist Margaret Somerville says Mr. Beatie’s story speaks to the uprooting of the biologically natural family, a process that began with same-sex marriage.

“Once you take away that fundamental biological reality, once you say that family is what you define it as … then you can do this sort of thing,” said Ms. Somerville, founding director of the McGill Centre for Medicine, Ethics and Law.

“Where I would do a reversal on this is to say, ‘You’ve artificially made yourself a man. You’re not a man, you’re a woman and you’re having a baby and you’re actually having your own baby. Just because you put on a clown suit, doesn’t mean that you don’t still exist underneath.’ “

She added: “It’s a very touchy thing, this deconstruction of our biological reality and the institutions that have existed across all kinds of societies over thousands and thousands of years to establish stability, respect and certainty. I think we’re just playing with fire.”

I am totally hooked on Big Brother 9. This is the first season I’ve watched the show and boy am I going to buy the past seasons on DVD (if they are on dvd). The show is soooo good. Before I watched I thought it was like any other boring reality show. But its not. I watch it religiously. And when I’m not home its recorded on my DVR. WooHoo!

I love Ryan and Natalie but she’s a dunce.

sometimes you have an argument with someone and you try to be the better person and you apologize most of the time and the other person rarely apologizes because they think they’re Jesus Christ?

Or have you ever been in a situation where you and someone are planning a joint venture and you realize you’re the ONLY one doing the leg work and when you ask the other person to help out, they take offense and say, “I do help out!” but dont explain how they do?

Well if you said “yes” to both scenarios then… YOU’RE A FOOL! because you tend to accept B.S. into your life. For all the fools (including myself) we need to run as fast as you can and relieve ourselves of some stress. Unfortunately for most of us, we try to make things work but its not happening as fast as you like it to be.

Believe me, I’m not a saint. However, this makes me a better person because I’ve admit  that.

All I can say is pray and if that doesnt work…leave.

I am officially a Credit Analyst at my job. I want to say thanx to everyone who prayed for me. I passed the Boards successfully. I will be performing my duties tomorrow as an analyst.

P.S.- Eric Bana and I go way back. LOL… j/k!
