My Name is Ann...


If you reached this destination through a link from one of my pages (myspace, facebook etc.) Then you know who I am, or at least a little about me. Otherwise, its okay. This will probably be the only post that pertains to me. Maybe I'll use another blog for that purpose. So if you know me, you may have a few questions.

Q: Where did your other blog go?
A: I took it down in spring 2006. I was being a very petty person at that time. I had immersed myself in a culture of women that can, at times, bring out the petty in you although it strives to put petty things aside. It doesn't happen to everyone but it happened to me. Naturally, that is not who I am. I am extremely shy and caring however I had never been in the "limelight", never been one to be in the forefront, or known for anything. I am a very understated but opinionated individual. I describe myself as a little indian who can be the chief if needed. Anyway, being unable to cope with a new environment brought out the worst and I needed to step away from my blog because it became an outlet with which to spew ugliness. My father died soon after this revelation and I was forced to re-evolve. I have done a 270. Almost back the person I was but less shy, more forceful, and more thoughtful. So here we are. I work in retail, I intern and I am nearly done with grad school.

Q: What will this blog be about?
A: I see too much crazy crap that I wanted to talk about and I was using my facebook status to do it. Well the lovely staff at facebook has a length limit and it was stifling the wit and humor of my observational commentary. So I brought it here. Also, I find that posting a status makes people thing things are about them. Not necessarily, but you may be a guilty party. Nevertheless, I brought the blog here to avoid that. Not to mention a lot of times I am talking about myself too. I commit a lot of the faux pas I'm going to discuss. LOL. This blog is for my personal enjoyment but I think I will share it with you all too. :o)

Q: You must be a lame with lots of free time.
A: Well, that was a statement but I will answer it anyway. I do not have lots of free time. Quite the contrary, I am pressed for time. I have a full life and I enjoy it and I also enjoy blogging, not to be confused with actual writing. I missed my blog, like I missed facebook-ing and catching/keeping up with old friends.

Q: SWAGGER JACKER!
A: Chile, please. I may not have been an innovator or early adopter but I entered into the blogosphere in 2005, call me the earliest of the early majority!




I'm two years removed, still the vibe is in my veins
I got a hustler spirit, [chick] period
Check out my hat yo, peep the way I wear it
Check out my swag' yo, I walk like a ballplayer
No matter where you go, you are what you are player
And you can try to change but that's just as hot player
Man, you was who you was 'fore you got here
Only God can judge me, so I'm gone
Either love me, or leave me alone.
