The Longest Weekend Ever..........


When i woke up this morning, I could of sworn it was Monday.  Then I realized that I did waste an hour and a half last night watching the unfunny Gabourey Sidibe on Saturday Night Live. While i'm on the SNL topic, did anyone watch it last night? I'm sorry, but I couldn't watch the movie Precious, I had no desire to watch it.  I just don't like her acting.  I thought she sucked on SNL, she wasn't funny, stumbled a few times with her lines, and I personally don't think she brought anything special to the table.  The funniest part was the "Cherry Battle" with Andy Sandberg. Anyway, this is how my weekend went.....

Friday, I got a lot of errands done.  Went to the store, laundromat, beauty supply store etc.  I also found time to go see Jennifer Lopez's  new move "The Back Up Plan", which i enjoyed.  I get a kick out of J.Lo movies, she should stick with romantic comedies. The question was raised "Why doesn't her race ever come up in her movies"? To be honest, I haven't really thought of it before.  In most of her movies she's always with a white man, and her background (and family) are never mentioned (expect Maid in Manhattan...which I loved).  We all know that she isn't ashamed of where she comes from, so why does this repeat in every movie she's in?.  My conclusion is that she's a Latina who land roles that were written for White women.  I might be wrong, but if I'm right, congrats are in order for Jennifer for breaking barriers




One my my friends was having a bad day, so we decided to take a night trip downtown. Even though it rained most of the time, and we did more walking than my ballet shoes could allow, we had a good time.  We went to navy pier, then Millennium Park, and then down to State St.  By the time I got home, I was soak & wet, and extremely tired.  The next morning I had to get myself up and go work out.  After getting my but hooped, my friend and I went to see our friends baby for the second him (this time, not in the hospital) and he's soooo cute.  He slept most of the time, but when he did finally opened his blueish-grey eye (yes I said I, he winked at us the whole time..lol) he looked adorable.

It's a Boy!!!!!!!!!!!


On Monday my friend gave birth to her second child.  When we first arrived at the hospital, my friends and I rushed to see the baby.  Since the baby was in the middle of taking a hearing test, we had to view him through the window. He looked so cute.....and long.  Since his mom is over 6 feet, you know her offspring is destined to be long legged.  Seeing a new born brings on all kinds of emotions. Especially for someone like me who doesn't have kids.  "Aww.. the baby is so cute."  "Aww.... makes me want to have a baby" etc.  Then my friends and I walked back to my friends hospital room and they (who are mothers) begin to talk about dilating, blood clots, going into shock, ripping, and stitching and my mind completely changes (well for the moment).
