What Dreams May Come
I had a dream last night where a taxi driver was taking me somewhere and then made an unrequested stop at this house.  He insisted I get out, against my wishes, and in the house was my ex husband, his mother and father, and some uncle of sort who seemed to be the owner of the house (it was quite large and opulent, clearly not theirs).  I was very angry as they had paid the taxi driver (well his...

Living In Trinidad
Things I love about it: The people.  We really ARE that friendly.  I take it for granted that the level of hospitality displayed by West Indians exists everywhere.  Until I get a rude awakening in say, Europe, where I’ve had the experience of people displaying a total lack of interest in me and where I come from because they consider my country to be of no consequence.  I actually had a...

My City By The Bay
I’m going to San Francisco in the first week of March.  I’m so FREAKING excited I cannot WAIT!!!!  I’ve been there once before and I absolutely LOVED it. Strange enough, I’ve always felt a connection to that city and never knew why.  Even stranger, for months before I went the first time I dreamt of all the places I would visit, not knowing where I was dreaming of.  It was...

Pretty. Stupid.
Women’s magazines are so depressing.  I was reading Elle online. In the Love and Relationships section or whatever they call it, almost every one of the articles are about women in unhappy relationships, women in dysfunctional relationships, men cheating, being the other woman, having casual sex, blah blah blah.  How very encouraging. Really.  Nothing uplifting there. And then those idiotic...

Time To Move On
My work environment, while normal to me, would be considered a lunatic asylum by most people.  I work in the creative department of a large advertising agency and at any given moment, there’s likely to be someone cussing, LOUDLY across the room, someone dancing down the center aisle while singing a tune of their choice, a bunch of guys gathered around someone’s computer guffawing while...

Get Your Priorities Straight
The baked potatoes (I had two, they weren’t really very big) were AWESOME. I totally smothered them in butter, cheese and sour cream. YUMMMMM. I generally eat pretty healthy and I work out, keep myself in shape, but when it comes to a baked potato, one has to maintain a proper perspective on what’s important in life. Butter. Lots of it. Now.

Lips That Touch Liquor Will Never Touch Mine
I’m watching Boardwalk Empire. I just got through the first episode, and I have to say I really like it.  It’s not overly violent either, unlike Spartacus which shows on Starz. I took in the entire first season the other day. It was MAD. Sex, blood, gore, just madness.  But it was good.  I will follow it.  Others I follow: Mad Men, Californication (I love me some Hank Moody), House,...

Fuh De Tum Tums
“What shall I have for breakfast?” she mused, at 12:25. And then she opened the cupboard. And there was Weetabix. And all was well with the world. Next up for lunch: Baked potato! No I’m not on a diet. I just don’t like to cook. Read: Laziness in yuh puefm

I Just Have Too Many...
I just caught myself trying to turn off my fan with my tv remote. I have too many remotes.  One for my fan, one for my tv and cable, one for the tv when I’m using a dvd cause the other one doesn’t adjust the volume otherwise, and one for my xbox. Yes I said my xbox. I’m a gamer. Kiss my feet.

A Brief History of Me
I figure if you’re going to be reading my blog you’d like to know a little bit about me.  So here goes.  I’ll start from the very beginning (it’s a very good place to begin). I’m Trinidadian, not born, not bred, but Trini nonetheless.  That’s what my passport says at least so I’ll stick with that.  I was born in Switzerland (you would not BELIEVE the...

Things I Am Grateful for Today
It’s Friday.  I woke up this morning exhausted and dreading the day ahead at work because if it was anything like yesterday I was in for a long, frustrating and tiring day. Today is turning out not to be ANYTHING like yesterday.  The gods (and my boss who thinks he is a god) have smiled on me and exponentially, googleplexidly lightened my workload. Yay! It’s 1:04 pm which means...
