IMG00092 Well Hello good people!!  I is B-A-C-K from my surprise whirlwind trip to Philadelphia to see my momma!  Thanks to everyone who wished me safe travels and let me just say:

246 Blog Entries on my Google Reader!!  What the hell ya’ll been blogging about. I got some catching up to do!  I am going to schedule some time to read.  Yikes!

Ok, so let me begin all about the trip……bullets will work well here.

I started the trip out on the borderline of being sick.  My entire body ached so bad Friday.  I had so much to do.  Running around etc. and as I blogged on Friday BCPC was coming.  That night I had to do all my schoolwork and write a paper so that I would stay up to date in class.  I damn collapsed with some Tylenol PM cold Friday nite. I can’t really tell you what Caun and the girls did, lol lol

Saturday morning I still felt awful but the excitement made me trudge on. 

  • I saw that dreary ass city immediately and once again applauded myself on moving.  Philly was is and always will be a dreary ass town to me.
  • $20 for a 13 minute cab ride from the airport!? Get the flick flack out of here.
  • "Mom, what you doing?  Yea I’m getting ready to do my errands etc. on Saturday as well.  Nah, Caun and the girls ran somewhere.  Mom I need you to do me a favor.  Yes mam.  Can you open the door it’s cold out here."
  • Tadah!  Yep Mom it’s me - Happy Birthday!!  Um, can I come it - it really is cold outside.
  • Mom why do I now have to turn SIDEWAYS to get up in this piece?!  Where is Niecy Nash’s number!!  You need an intervention!!
  • Why are things identified by who runs them?  Yes I’ll go to the Puerto Ricans. The Asians sell stockings..I see the Negro day care.

IMG00094 How can you NOT love a woman who rocks these?  My campaign to have her old winter boots taken off the market succeeded but not before they replaced them with these super girl boots that she loves.  SIGH

  • My nephew (7 yrs old) at his finest: 
  • "See this is what I go through on a daily basis!  She is sooo mean!"
  • "Grandmommmm don’t you have something else to do instead of riding me?!"
  • "I am not a negro - I am an african american"
  • "Mom can we watch the Grammy’s like regular folks and not give militant commentary?  No, ok never mind..yes mom Beyonce has sold her soul to every white man and she is a trisket away from blowing up"
  • "Mom this is the chick fila. They sell lemonade with splenda..no mom not by the gallon"
  • "Mom thanks so much for dinner - but the bran flax muffins were a bit interesting. I think my left artery is just fine…Oh mom the baking powder says good until june 2005. Yep that may be why the muffins are pancakes"
  • IMG00093 "Mom everyone says it’s cold in her because IT’S COLD IN HERE!!!"
  • Why are we riding and I go to eject the CD in the player and the motherfucka damn near decapitates me!!?!! 
  • "No nigga I’m not looking for no damn crack - I’m looking for you to get out my face"
  • Oh my God does that sign say all boots $5.00 and is this a NINE WEST BOOT?!  Where is my cart?IMG00096

    • How do I go out of town and come home with small appliances? 
    • I’d like a hot sausage with mustard and sauerkraut.  Yes and a bottled water.  Gawd, Philly may be rank but damn if they don’t have some good food!!!
    • Is that a line wrapped around the building TWICE for a cheesesteak?
    • Are you telling me the cheese steak at the airport is $8.00?  Excuse me, where is the Burger King?
    • Mom you know I’m voting for Obama to run you crazy, lol lol  that’s half the fun.
    • We mute the TV during the commercial because it’s commentary time and you don’t want to over talk the TV…ok.
    • Ok we can go to the thrift now - they’ve done the markdowns right.  IMG00097
    • Is the volume on eardrum bursting for any particular reason?
    • Um sir you know COACH is spelled C-O-A-C-H and not C-O-A-V-H right? 
    • You have to turn in your license so they can scan your eyeball and reissue it.WTF?!
    • Philadelphia International Airport is taking security VERY SERIOUS, except do you really think Sheniquia there knows what she’s using the little flashlight on my license for?  Yea ok, exactly what are you looking for?
    • If you can’t get down the aisle didn’t that used to mean you couldn’t be a flight attendant?  Quality has gone wayy down people!  wayy down!
    • Mom don’t forget to mail my box with all my new stuff.

    IMG00100 Awww Caun - I missed you so! 

     

    I HAD A WONDERFUL TIME!! 

    LOVES YAH TO DEATH MOM!

     

    and by the way….

      You do look like your mom!

      And ROFLMAO at what you said to the crack man!

      And double ROFLMAO @ stepping in sideways to get in your mom’s house. Ain’t it the truth? I need to the rehab intervention folks to come help my mom get her room straight - it is serious up in there! LOL.

      Sounds like your mom is doing great. Why such a long line for cheese steak? I thought Philly would have cheese steaks were everywhere up there. LOL

      My mother wont throw out her baking powder either.

      ChezNiki: “Ma! It costs 1.29, just buy some more. Its expired, it wont work when you bake.”

      ChezMom: “Dont throw out my stuff!!!”

      I love the supergirl boots!

      I have had a thing for metallics since I was younger…..and not just gold & silver.

      I’m talking bronze, pewter, gunmetal or any other precious ore.

      If they make a shoe, boot or accessory…..it’s mine!
