Too nice for your own good!

The names in this story have been changed to protect the innocent.

Recently a friend of mine "Pam" I'll call her, told me about a date she went on over the weekend. Now " Pam " is an intelligent, beautiful woman who has a great job, her own home and two nice sons. She doesn't need a man to take care of her, she just wants someone to possibly share her life with. So in her search for companionship she decides to try on-line dating. She joins Orange people meet.com and proceeds to meet people...................................................now this is where it gets interesting! She meets this guy (we'll call him Stan)who seems like a nice guy (don't they all seem nice in the beginning?) they converse on line for a while then decided to go on a date.
It all seems so innocent doesn't it? Okay so "Pam" agrees to meet "Stan" at his house and he would drive from there. Well "Pam" gets to "Stan's" house and he comes outside to her car and she's like " Oh this must be his dad or older brother............WRONG it was Stan who was looking way older than his picture on-line. He proceeds to tell her that his car was totaled yesterday (TOTALED YESTERDAY? and Your NOT HURT?) and he can't drive so can she? While "Pam" is trying to wrap her mind around the fact that this guy IS old enough to be her father he jumps in the car and proceeds to tell her how to get to the restaurant. Well all the while he's talking up a storm about how beautiful she is, she's too beautiful for him ( always run from anyone who tells you that) Blah blah blah......finally he's like here we are "Pm" looks and she's like " You've got to be kidding!" they are at Whole Foods! Yes Whole Foods the grocery store, the supermarket, the place where you buy food to cook and eat. "Okay " she thinks to herself, Maybe he is going to buy dinner and take it back to his place". (we are always thinking the best of people.) They go in and he grabs a cart and starts shopping. Yep SHOPPING !!!!
he took a list out of his pocket and starts moving down the aisle throwing stuff in. My sister girl "Pam" is in shock! He must be making dinner for me." she thinks. So she just stands there unable to breath or say anything. He finishes up and they leave, she DRIVES him back to his place and he asks her if she wants to come upstairs for a snack, as he holds up a potato chip bag. A SNACK!!!! This is after he purchased two cooked chickens, sides and other things. (at this point I am laying on the floor rolled up into a ball crying!!!) She politely says, " No thank you." and peals off into the night. I mean if he needed some food, why didn't he call Meals on Wheels? I can't even call this? What is going on? I'm afraid, very afraid!!!!!

Return of the 2Fer Sale! Nov. 28-29

My Favorite Holiday

For many people, Christmas is looked upon as their favorite holiday.not me. My favorite holiday is Thanksgiving! Thanksgiving to me is my Carte Blanche card to eat until my heart's content! Every year I look forward to my favorite meal - turkey, dressing, and cranberry sauce. In addition to that, I can't wait for the hot buttered rolls, macaroni and cheese, sweet potato pie, collard greens, and string beans. During the first 10 months of the year, I try to maintain a healthy diet. I rarely eat any of these dishes but when Thanksgiving rolls around - all diets and healthy eating are off; no organic items; for me; and I'll pass on the sugar-free or low sugar deserts. I want what I've been waiting for all year long and that's the traditional Thanksgiving dinner! That to me is what Thanksgiving is all about; notwithstanding, the time to spend with your family and friends. J So Pooka family, if you see me at the warehouse carrying an extra couple of pounds after Thanksgiving, know that I put on those pounds with a smile on my face and a turkey leg in my hand. Enjoy the holidays!javascript:void(0)
Save Now

Another Beauty Bailout!

What do I do now!

Okay, most of you know how much I was into the campaign and elction. I feel like I played a small part in the election of our First African American president. I talked about it, blogged about it, I sent some cash, I even made phone calls to undecided voters in PA and now I find myself with a lot of free time! Don’t get me wrong I am still on an Obama high but there is no need to rush home and watch MSNBC or CNN, no more throwing around my political knowledge, staying up late to watch SNL or anything!
It kind of feels like (what I would imagine) the day after a wedding! A year of planning and then when the day is over, now what? A lot of folks have been feeling the same way not realizing just how much time they had invested this past year and a half. I need a new cause! Anybody have anything in mind?
