Please Allow Myself,

To introduce... Myself

Hey there, remember me? I know it's been quite sometime since I've actually posted some thoughts, words and pictures of my own on here, but I'm not sorry... you bitches ain't nobody!!!!
Totes Kidding!!!  You guys (whoever you are, as in most likely ONE person) are awesome and I am very sorry because I know you can't live another day without my wise words to guide your life.... right down the drain.

Anyways, this year has already slapped me sideways and tossed me around like a one dollar hooker in Vegas, but I'm enjoying it. Guess I finally know what I want to do with my life now... So since my last sincere post was about New Years resolutions and getting this mess of a life together, I figured I'd update y'all on just a few of my goals and achievements:

1. Go to church EVERY Sunday - Not proud of myself on this one, it's been 4 or 5 weeks since my last church appearance.
2. Exercise at LEAST 4 times a week and eat healthy - another disappointment; this week I'm back on track after my birthday month celebration (don't judge, there's no reason you should celebrate your birthday for ONE day) and have taken it upon myself to deactivate my "social internet life" that way I can focus on my goal and not be distracted by all the fun everyone else will be having, while I'm just eating salads & sweating like a pig... I want to cry thinking about it, but I can cry when I'm a skinny bitch.
3. Get my financial stabilities together - This is one goal that I have accomplished and have been doing pretty good with. I even got myself a part time waitressing job that I start this weekend (raising the roof y'all) so I can finally have a shithole apartment to call my own. Fingers crossed that I don't get fired on day one! 
4. Limit my alcohol intake to special occasions - Like most of my other goals, I only lasted a good month and a half on this one. I have been drinking almost every weekend and family event since February and that's not good folks! So since I'm going to be in my own little world of full time work, exercise, part time work and sleep for the next couple months I'm not going to have time for any alcohol intake and that is fabulous. Oh yeah, and I didn't puke on my bday celebration night! Holler!
5. Read more books - Honestly, the last book I read was the booklet attached to the liquor bottle I was drinking out of... the shame
6. No Douchebags - Well, this one I've aced because I've managed to block out any and all men that approach me. I should probably start responding to them soon before I am told "I heard you were a lesbian now" again... yes AGAIN, I was told that by an old friend I ran into about a year ago. I should've maneaten his ass to let him know that I'm strictly dickly!

So, now you know my year has been fairly decent & eventful and is only getting better from here!! Blink 182 wasn't messin' around with that song Dammit lol
Hope you guys have done better in the New Year Resolution department than I have!! 

Exes & Oh's hoes!

Love GeeRae

Sheck it out!!

Dear Extremely Sexy Shirtless Man

Dear Extremely Sexy Shirtless Man Running Down The Street,

Thank you.

Sincerely,

All Women in Northern Glendale

I've always thought this was like a "vanity girl thing" to do, until this last week. Of course most females are not likely to exercise in public shirtless (unless intoxicated), the vain ones just wear their sports bra & a pair of tiny shorts in the gym so everyone knows they have less than 12% body fat without them having to say it out loud. Well during this last week on my way to and from work, I've seen two different men on two different main streets running shirtless with only black shorts on. Please note that I am only thanking one of these men because he happened to be wearing shorts that I deemed as an appropriate length and not a pair of Speedos like the first guy I saw. I probably would've continued to gawk at him too if it wasn't for his super tight Daisy Dukes which instantly made me think that no straight man would dare to run down such a busy street like that... or would he??? Guys, you tell me. Well upon seeing the second running man on my way home from work, I instantly turned into a New York construction worker thinking & saying all kinds of obscenities to myself in my car... With my windows up of course, I am a lady!

My instinctive animal behavior made me think of how the "vain run down the street in skimpy clothing" isn't something only women like to do; Men are into this too cause I witnessed it twice in one work week. Normally when I see women doing this, my initial thought is 'Show off!!' (only cause I'm totally jealous of her rockin' body), but then when I seen the guys doing it I thought 'Hellllllloooo!". When men see a shirtless guy who's in good shape running down the street, do they think the same way? Do you think he's just showing off for the hot ladies driving down the street? Or did I just drink too much Hatorade? At first I felt a slight bit of guilt for acting like a 16 year old girl (slight is the keyword here), but then I thought of how many men see half nekkid women running down the street and they honk or roll down their windows to shout perverted things at them. So the guilt I felt was overruled.

Maybe two wrongs do make a right??
No? Whatever.

Acknowledgement

Have you ever been in public and recognized someone you personally know and who's even friended you on Facebook, see you and act like you don't exist?? What an asshole, right? How about if you've ever walked down the street and crossed paths with a random stranger and they instantly look away or down at their phone, because God forbid they have to look you in the eye and say Hello or just even smile at you? This is just ludicrous* people! (*Not to be confused with the rapper Ludacris, because he would probably shout something vulgar out at you like MOVE BITCH! GET OUT THE WAY! And you can't really be too upset about it cause he IS acknowledging you, right? No? Ok, moving on.)

I believe that besides Love, another feeling us human beings long for the most is acknowledgement. People like the sense of recognition. I recently had the above example happen to me where I was completely ignored and I was the least bit pleased about it. Here is how how it happened:

1. At small shindig of 12-14 people- Eye contact is made then He looks the other way without even throwing a smile at me and continues his conversation
2. Me thinking: "Wow, you're really that busy or too important to come up and say Hi to me or even smile at me when we're 10 feet away from each other? "
3. The night ends, no words are exchanged.
4. Next drunken night scrolling through Facebook updates- I come across his update: THIS muthaf*cker! DEFRIENDED!!
5. Next day of sobriety- Me: Was that childish of me???
   Trusted Adviser Ninja: Hell no! If he's so shady that he can't talk to you in real life, why the hell should you be friends on Facebook?!? 
   Me: Touche... Man I really gotta stop that drunk Facebooking.

I've actually been one of these assholes a few times and remember thinking "I don't have time or just don't want to say Hi to them cause I don't even know what to talk about". And to those people who've I completely ignored, I apologize and promise it will never happen again. I told myself from that day on, I'm going to make it a point to acknowledge everyone I know and even people I don't know. I can understand that there are times when two people who know each other are in a certain situation where it would just be difficult to sit there and converse with each other about the weather, sports, or whatever it is you manage to think of while trying to make conversation. Yes it can be awkward and utterly uncomfortable, but that person is a living human being with feelings and they deserve some sort of acknowledgement whether it be a smile or just a simple Hello. I don't know about you, but to me it feels good to receive a smile and a friendly Hello from a complete stranger.

So being a newbie to this whole blogging business, I chose this topic for my first post in hopes that my fellow interweb nerds who are strangers and people who I may know, will acknowledge me and love me and all my shenanigans that will be posted.

xoxo
