Nuthin to Worry About....

I don't know about you guys, but in my past life I think I was a "worry wart", ya know, one of those people that worry about this, and worry about that, and worry and worry and worry
(you get the picture).

Well, I've noticed that a lil bit of that worryin still creeps into my present life.
Not too much, but a lil here and there...And although I embrace it as part of human nature,
I realize more and more that worry just leads to more worry!
Like getting water on a Gremlin,once you start honey,its OVA..

After incessantly listenin to Bobby McFerrin's "Don't worry Be happy" over the years,I've claimed a brand new anthem of sorts..
One that makes me schoolgirl happy..One that starts my toes tappin,which turns to thigh slappin and moves on up to full "SHAKE IT, POP IT" status in record time...OWWWWWW!!!

Chicas and Dudes..I present to you my fav new song for Spring '09...

Courtesy of Peter,Bjorn,and John..a band of Swedes showin the indie rock scene how to keep the party goin..OOH!!and they formed their band in 1999..which means, we were brought together in sum weird cosmic kinda way via my other hubby Prince
(well..not really,but it sounds amazing no?!?)

Anyhoo..cop their new steez,Living Thing..u can thank me later :-)

tracktastically happy..

Reminization...Rememberances of dope ISH past

Once upon a time
...
there lived a girl (me) in the faraway land of Chicago (southside to be exact)
...
She loved to sing more than cherry fruit rollups and jacks
...
She entered her schools talent show and won 1st place
...
What did she wear you ask?
...
Oversized Betty Boop sweatshirt,Pastel Pink stirrups,Lime Green and Royal Blue slouch socks,Crispy white skippy's(Keds)
Hair in a high side pony with a Lime Green scrunchie and of course oodles of neon rubber bracelets
...
What did she sing you ask?





and yes..she did the dance too

the end.

Even Señor Dude is over him....

About a year ago I found the most amazing toy for the resident FunkyFanny's mascot,
Señor Dude...

Sumthin filled with loads of catnip!!..Sumthin that he'd just LOVE to throw around,fling down the stairs,and ultimately DESTROY in his oh so frisky way!!

It was sumthin soooooo special that I knew that Inauguration Day would be the PERFECT time to bust it out for the Dudester,cuz of course,Kitties like to celebrate too...








After serious consideration(heavy sniffing and striking with the right paw),I decided to familiarize the penthouse of his kitty condo with his brand spankin new toy..


Aaaannnnnnnd......
in true Señor Dude form (peep the intense look of disgust)...he pushed it off as if to say..
"I wouldn't play with that Sh*t for all the catnip in the world"...




BWAHAHAHAH!!!!I love my cat!!!

BEAUTIFUL............

Very few times in my adult life have I been at a loss for words...Yesterday was one of those days...

I mean really..Are there really any words that can sum up how wonderful this moment is?..

I'm totally into "The Art of Word Combination" so AWESOMETASTIC, FANTABULOUS and YUMMILICIOUS are some of my favs..but even they fall short in descriptive measure..

A Beautiful First Family,A Beautiful Day for all to celebrate,and a Beautiful step towards Change..but one of the most beautiful things about it for me, is best summed up by this T-shirt I found on my last trip FunkyFannytizin' in Miami..



No More Bush....
NOW THAT'S BEAUTIFUL!!!!!

I Mean REALLY people!!!

I know that Holiday sales are SOOO exciting and getting that last Cabbage Patch,Wii Fit,or Fuzzy Leopard Slippers for $1.99 is unheard of...but REALLY!!!!!!!...Anytime folks are gettin trampled for a TV, I think we should all take a step back,remember the reason for the season, and take it down a thousand..GEESH!!!!!

R.I.P dear Walmart worker..

To all the people responsible..you should be DAMN ASHAMED of yourselves!!!!!!!!!I know a recession is amongst us and Dough is tight for us all,but DAMN...it aint worth a life..

Ok..please continue on with your holiday shopping whilst playing nice..

As appalled as appalled can be,
