I've recently got into this Showtime series Weeds. It is absolutely great. The shows' central character is Nancy Botwin (Mary-Louise Parker), a newly widowed suburbanite mother of two who has turned to selling marijuana to support her family after her husband unexpectedly dies. Over the course of the show she finds herself involved in illegal activities on a progressively larger scale. I've caught up on seasons 1-5 with the help of my Netflix membership and am now patiently awaiting the new season. This is a bit awkward considering I don't have Showtime, but I am determined to find a way to watch it. That means even getting Showtime if I have to. But anyway, go to google.com and type in "showtime's original series Weeds" or get on Netflix or On Demand and catch up. This series is awesome. You only have a month or so left before the new season. August 16th is the date. Hope you like it.

Miami Bound
What's up people. It's been a while. I know. But I've recently got some news that I just had to comment on. ESPN just confirmed that Chris Bosh and Dwyane Wade will both sign with the Miami Heat. WOW! Now, I am a big Chris Bosh fan. I started following him during the Olympic games in 2008. I've always felt like he wasn't happy in Toronto (who is) but I also thought he would be a good fit for Atlanta. I even started voicing my opinion on how much Atlanta needed somebody like Bosh and considering the fact that he went to Georgia Tech, I thought Atlanta had a good chance. Looks like they (Atlanta Hawks) weren't interested in going out and getting any more players though. They were only interested in re-signing Joe Johnson (yawn). Yeah the Joe Johnson who averaged about 12pts a game in the playoffs. But enough about that.
So, today on ESPN, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh did a interview announcing they are going to team up in Miami. Wow! It kinda caught me off guard because I've always thought LeBron would be joining DWade in Miami considering the whole jersey number change and knowing how sneaky Pat Riley can be, but I didn't think of Bosh. So, now that they've made this announcement, what is LeBron going to do? Do you think he will join them. If so, I'm a fucking genius. Just remember I said it a long time ago. Can't wait until tomorrow. LeBron is scheduled to make an announcement and of course the world is going to be tuning in. Holla!

Fashion and Entertainment
I know I've been slipping a little on presenting the fashion and entertainment like I usually do, but I will get back on that as well. Please don't think I haven't been looking for anything because I have. I am still deeply in love with shoes and since it's the Spring, you know the sandals are all around and I've found some very HOT ones to post. So stay tuned. I also have a couple new purses and accessories to post as well. I don't know why, but I have become so much more girlie now that I have 2 girls. I have become a lot more aware of all kinds of fashions and can't wait to go out and get some of the new things. I'm just trying to position myself so I can get exactly what I need. Anyway, stay tuned and I'll hit you real soon with some hot stuff.
Swarovski Watch $800-$900
Christian Louboutin Swarovski Sandal
Opus One 1987 $315 Hope this holds you until I get back. Holla.
Swarovski Watch $800-$900Oh, I can't forget some of my faves. Since we're on the Swarovski theme.
Christian Louboutin Swarovski SandalAnd Last but not least. I have been getting into wine a little more now. Of course I still gets down with the Ciroc and Grey Goose but if you just feel like relaxing and doing it really "grown up", then get on a little wine. With that being said, If you like Red Wine (I don't) try a little Opus One. Some bottles are a little more expensive than others (like all wines) but just to give you a glimpse.
Opus One 1987 $315It's been a while
It's been a while... I know. But I haven't spent my time just doing nothing. I have really been trying to get a lot of things into perspective. I am on a mission this year and have a list of goals that I must see accomplished. Last year was a really good year for me and I knew going into this year that if I just applied myself, I could do phenomenal things. So here I go. For starters, I have enrolled in school and will hopefully start in the Summer 2010. So I have been trying to get ready for that. Seems crazy, but at the end of last year, it dawned on me what my REAL purpose in the world is, and as clear as day I new what I needed to do. So it requires going back to school. But, this time, I actually don't mind doing it. I guess since I have a goal and I see and finish line I am actually motivated and know I can get through this 6 years of school. NO problem. Yeah, 6 years. But it is more than worth it. Of course I gonna keep you in suspense for a while. Just until I get things together and I'll be back on here to let you know what it is and how it's going. But it is something that I've always wanted to do, but for some reason I have always looked over it. Well, I decided around December of last year, that I would look into it a little more and actually found some answers that changed my whole outlook on the profession. I'm sure the answers were there when I considered it before, but guess I wasn't ready for the journey at the time. Well now I am and I am excited. Wish Me Luck. Holla:)

Dating Tips: 10 Signs He's Not the One
By YourTango.com Updated: Jan 28, 2010
Some people say they "just knew" that they were dating their future spouse. But what about the rest of us? What happens when you're not sure if he's The One? If you're considering long-term commitment or marriage, it's time to ask yourself some tough questions. Below, 10 signs that may indicate he's not for you.
1. You have a list of things he needs to stop doing/saying/wearing if he wants your relationship to work. If you're fixating on his flaws, he's either not the one you want or you're not ready for a serious relationship. Cutting him loose allows you time to grow and gives you the opportunity to meet a guy whose flaws you can embrace -- or at least accept.
2. You don't trust him. A small dose of jealousy can be healthy, but if you're hacking into his email account, and going berserk when he goes out without you, something's wrong. If there's something about him that truly warrants your distrust, then perhaps he's not the right one for you.
3. You avoid conflict at any cost. Fighting is healthy. And, when done right (in the non-accusatory, rational sort of way), it can be a great way to air grievances, fix problems in your relationship, and come to a deeper understanding of each other. Ignoring problems is not the same as having no problems at all... even if it looks that way.
4. When you're sad, you don't turn to him for comfort. When you're a giant ball of tears and snot, do you lock yourself into the bathroom so he can't see you at your worst? If you're worried about scaring him away, one of you isn't ready for total commitment. Mr. Right should make you smile through your tears and be a calming, not stressful, presence.
5. One of you is struggling with an addiction. He's sweet. He's exciting. He loves you very much. But he loves his alcohol habit or his weekly gambling fix more. Don't fool yourself into thinking that you can change him or that your relationship will be strong enough to withstand the heartache that addiction will inevitably bring. An addict may be able to change, but he'll do so on his own terms.
6. You can't really imagine him as the father of your children. Ask yourself: Would he make a great parent? Is he financially responsible? Would he be an equal partner in your future together? If you have doubts, he's probably not the one.
7. Your long-term, non-negotiable goals in life are incompatible. You want kids; he doesn't. You go to church every week; he's an atheist. He lives in the country and doesn't want to move; you can't imagine ever leaving the city. Superficial differences can be overcome, but differences in basic values are harder to smooth over. Ask yourself: "Would I be willing to compromise on this?" If the answer is absolutely not, you may not be right for each other.
8. You don't respect each other. He puts you down in front of your friends and complains about you to his parents. You roll your eyes when he talks because there's just something about him that embarrasses you. A relationship without respect can't sustain itself.
9. You're not attracted to him. Physical intimacy is a hugely important component of a romantic relationship. If he doesn't do it for you, he's probably not your best long-term match.
10. On paper he seems great, but you have this strange feeling... Don't ignore your gut. You may get along on a superficial level, but if your instincts are telling you he's not the one for you, listen. That little voice inside your head does not lie.

iPad: Steve Jobs presents Apple's new tablet
Apple CEO, Steve Jobs, unveils the new IPad at an event in San Francisco Wednesday. Apple promises that this tablet computer will combine all the best elements of the company’s line of phones and laptops. You will be able to run all apps from the IPhone. It is bigger than the IPhone but smaller than the Mac, naming it “the best of both worlds”. It is said to have a 10 hour battery life and more that a month of standby battery. It will come with a price tag of $500 and available in March. But according to sources, the IPad is getting mixed reviews. Would you get one? Tell me what you think?
