Rickita is 27 going on 18-45. She loves movies and dinners. She loves music. She loves HGTV. She loves to nap. She loves being alone. She loves the company of children and their genuine enthusiasm and sense of discovery. She loves having no clue. She loves text messaging. She loves fashion (she's secretly addicted to it). She loves day dreaming. She loves to read anything about African/African American people and their struggles/triumphs. She's learning to heal. The only science fiction she reads is by Octavia Butler. She wants to say that she cusses like a sailor, can't sit and eat at a table properly, is a talented burper. But in interest of her current employers finding this blog, she'll stick with....she loves education.

She's a teacher.

And she thinks that if you don't read "Medical Apartheid", you're not living.

And if you don't finish Native Son, you're a loser. Kidding, because I haven't finished it yet...but I will some time next week. The point is, just read it.

A break

I guess I owe myself a proper blog, given I’ve neglected this poor thing. So I’m sitting at work listening to some Badu tunes and considering whether or not I should sit on the toilet.

I don’t know why doing number two is so faux pas—I mean “Everybody Poops”. Nevertheless I’m going to sit on the toilet. I’ve listend to “Humble Mumble” and “Liberation”, both great Outkast songs.

Okay that was a random thought, but yeah I’m jamming at work. I’m leaving for home tomorrow afternoon and can’t imagine being any more estatic. Unfortunately I cannot find my fucking camera, so not being able to capture a potentially fantastic weekend is a blower. But turning 27 never sounded more beautiful. I thought that I would want to curl up in my apartment and be depressed, but I guess the older you get the less you worry about those sort of details.

I feel great for a upper twenty-something. I really wanted to have season one of my sitcom completed, but to be honest having Dakari around has been a bit distracting. I mean can I fully experience the new stage and not feel guilty about it!? lol

But I do have five fully completed one—new additions and all. Dakari doesn’t imagine me to be funny, last night in fact he said that my “character” has been written before “an earthy teacher, who is a good interior decorator with little resources”. He was drunk, so if it doesn’t make sense don’t think it’s you.

Wait we need a break, because I’ve been jamming. I’m going to post up some good music in celebration of this being MY Friday!

I’ll resume shortly…
