An IPOD Meme from my dear "Mister" aka Dat Dyssturbed brutha 2nd 68

Yes, I got tagged.

And this one here is from "Mister", a.k.a., that brotha 2nd 68, who got me all chained up in the castle with the rest of the broads he has designated as part of his beloved "Blog Harem"...

So, in addition to being responsible for cooking meals for Mister and the other chicks in the harem...

I gotta do this here tag.

Rules:

MEME Rules:
1. Put Your iTunes/ music player on Shuffle
2. For each question, press the next button to get your answer.
3. YOU MUST WRITE THAT SONG NAME DOWN NO MATTER WHAT!!!After you’ve answered all of the questions, tag 5 other people and then let them know they’ve been tagged to do the meme themselves!


Be forewarned. This is a long post. And I'm making it long just to make my captor Mister mad.

(Shawty can't stand long posts, you see. And he knows how LONGWINDED I tend to be. It's so long that I didn't even bother to put pictures in. Ya'll know how I like pictures, so it must be SUPER LONG)

And you better read it all, boy. HUMPH.

Song titles in green, personal thoughts in italics. . . and I'll let you figure the rest out.

Let's go, so I can go to bed.

IF SOMEONE SAYS “IS THIS OKAY” YOU SAY?
"Divas need Love Too,"by Klymaxx.

Okay, that could mean any doggone thing. Yeah, Oldgirls need love too.

WHAT WOULD BEST DESCRIBE YOUR PERSONALITY?
"Rapture"- by KRS-1

*LadyLee singing "Step into a world, la la la la la!!!*

(You know I don't know the words, babe!)

WHAT DO YOU LIKE IN A GUY/GIRL?
"Love" - by Keyshia Cole.

If a man can make this Oldgirl's voice crack out of control like Keyshia's voice cracks in this song... yes, that IS love!! Ya'll better slap some sense into me if my voice crack out like that because my nose is probably wiiiiide open! LOL

HOW DO YOU FEEL TODAY?
"Outstanding" by The Gap Band.

I don't feel outstanding today. I am well rested for a change, though. But "outstanding" is definitely something to shoot for in the future, right?

WHAT IS YOUR LIFE’S PURPOSE?
"On our Own" Bobby Brown.

Yes, I'm on my own. I don't want to be as on my own as Bobby Brown, so I will hold steady where I am. LOL!!

WHAT IS YOUR MOTTO?
"If Only You Knew" - by Patti Labelle.

Yes, if only you knew how much I don't want to go to work tomorrow. GEEZ!!!

WHAT DO YOUR FRIENDS THINK OF YOU?
"Time" - by Culture Club.

A bunch of my sista gurls are looking at me real crazy right now. One of my favorite things to do is stand on my soap box and yell for all to here that "Time tells everything! Time never lies."

Yes, that's some "Food for Thought" ish right there... all up in the middle of a tag. Yeah. I might crank out a whole loooong post on Time. (You'd like that, wouldn't you OG Serenity30)

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF YOUR PARENTS?
Encore - by Patti Austin

Uh no, I don't want an encore with them. Was all quite confusing and traumitizing, ya see.

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT VERY OFTEN?
"Ascension (Remix)- by Maxwell.

Okay, that can mean anything. Moving right along...

WHAT IS 2+2?
"On and On...Live" by Erykah Badu.

Okay. Whatever that means. Sounds like something that wacky E. Badu would say anyway.

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF YOUR BEST FRIEND?
"Listen to the Clock on the Wall"-by the O'Jays.

Now that's funny. There were many times during our teenage years when I was yelling, "Tee you better hurry! Because your Mama may be worried!"

Yes, we were in much mess, and stayed in trouble for breaking curfew. LOL!

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE PERSON YOU LIKE?
"Crazy"- by Miki Howard.

Not really true. The last couple of shorties I liked were not crazy, just a tad bit needy. You want me to act like I'm your wife, when I am not. That sound crazy. So I guess we can equate needy to "crazy". Yeah. Makes perfect doggone sense.

The axis of the world runs smack down the center of my head. Me giving myself over to some dude's needy behind ain't going down after a week of knowing him. Desperation is not on my list of options.

*LadyLee giving the Celie crooked 2 fanger point*

WHAT IS YOUR LIFE STORY?
"Happy Feelings"- Frankie Beverly and Maze.

Isn't that what we are all seeking? Aren't we all on a quest for that "Happy Feeling"?

WHAT DO YOU WANT TO BE WHEN YOU GROW UP?
"Anyone who had a Heart" -by Luther Vandross.

I want to know when I finally grow up that I took care to operate out of good heart, without wack agendas and bad motives. That's what's hot right there.

Really though.

WHAT DO YOU THINK WHEN YOU SEE THE PERSON YOU LIKE?
"Don't wake me, I'm dreaming" by Christopher Williams.

Yes, I would be dreaming. Because I don't like nobody right now. Maybe in my dreams though. Hmm.

WHAT DO YOUR PARENTS THINK OF YOU?
"Keep your Head up" -by Chaka Khan.

Yeah, that's what they should be saying because they had an Oldgirl caught up in some major dysfunctionality. I turned out okay, I suppose. The jury is still out on THAT one.

WHAT WILL YOU DANCE TO AT YOUR WEDDING?
"Glamorous Life (extended version) - Sheila E.

Let's see, I went to the Justice of the Peace in New Or.leans to get married back in 1999. There was no music. I went ot the Fulton county court in downtown ATL to get divorced in 2003. Now THAT was the song that should've been playing.

"She wants to lead the Glamorous life, she don't need, that Oldboy's touch!"

Whoa. That's deep.

IF I ever get the notion to get married again, there won't be a wedding, just the Justice of the Peace. You won't see me marching down the aisle in a white dress. I ain't quite virginal. I've been around the block, the neighborhood, and the world a few times over. A red dress and Glamorous Life will be playing if I'm forced to do so! LOL!

WHAT WILL THEY PLAY AT YOUR FUNERAL?
"Been so Long"- by Anita Baker.

Yes, I want it to be said. . . That Oldgirl's life been so looooooong!!!

WHAT IS YOUR HOBBY/INTEREST?
"Cutie Pie"by One Way

My hobbies - crocheting, reading, and writing, to name a few. Hmm, tie that into "Cutie Pie" however you see fit, because I ain't smart enough to decipher THAT one.

WHAT IS YOUR BIGGEST SECRET?
"Don't Leave me Girl" by Blackstreet.

*crickets*

*Ladylee raises eyebrows, then kicks the HARD eyeroll*

Pump the frickin' brakes. That does not compute, because an Oldgirl don't like other Oldgirls. I like Mens. I have begged a dude not to leave me before, though. This was some 20 years ago. Doing that at my age now is quite laughable.

And you sistas out there better not laugh at that. Think waaaaay back. You've begged a dude to stay. You know you have!!!!!

LOL!!!

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF YOUR FRIENDS?
"Strive"-by Kris Styles.

How appropriate! What are the chances of that song coming up.

You know, one of my book club sistas heard that playing on my blog a couple of years ago, and made me send her a CD with that song only. It played over and over, some 20 times.

I think I will put up the lyrics to that, with my Longwinded self. LOL!!!

Sista gurl, I don't want to pressure you, cuz I know that your situation's hard. Understand that you can't get to the end, if you haven't, if you haven't started. I hope your life can be more than what you planned it out to be, yeah. I'm my sister's keeper, I will never leave you, I believe in you.

Chorus: Someday you'll make it through, it's only up to you, you gotta strive and believe you will get by by. (Repeat chorus)

Sister gurl, I want the very best for you, but there's only so much I can say. Look deep within yourself and seek out a brighter day! Go on, get up, and pull yourself together. You can make it if you try, get a grip on your life, your joy, and survive.

You can't stop loving you, loving you, you gotta do whatcha gotta do... So try to believe and you will succeed.

Now, THOSE are some Original Oldgirl Platinum Plus Lyrics right there, baby!

That's a nice way of saying "Oldgirl pull yourself together!" As that newly annointed Original Oldgirl would say.

"Man up and stop being a PUNK!!"

Yes, that's my Motto this year. Thanks for that, LBeezy.

WHAT SHOULD YOU POST THIS AS?
No one's gonna love you, the way I do" by the SOS band.

Yo, on the serious tip?

Check it out:

If we are friends, and you're not trying to use me up, come at me sideways, or come at me with wack hidden agendas and dumb ass motives (Ya'll know how much I HATE that craziness)... And we have history, i.e., we been homies for a few years and we have a history of being a blessing to each other?

Rest assured...

I said, rest assured...

That you can know this. KNOW THIS...

You will hear me standing on the roof of my house screaming from the top of my lungs:

"No one's gonna love you, the way I do, noboddddddddddeeeeeey!!!!"

Not really. That would look a bit STRANGE, me standing on the roof yelling like that.

But. . .

I think my actions wail that pretty loudly.

You got a friend in me.

Yep, that could be an appropriate title for this here post.

Really though.

Alright, 2nd 68, my King, Mister, who's holding me captive. I completed your beloved tag.

Now take these shackles off so I can go to bed. And leave me alone. You gonna have to push up on some of them other broads tonight. No activities, since you got me in here cooking for you and the blog concubines.

Enough said. I ain't tagging NOBODY!

If you got an IPOD, work it out, work it OUT!

Holla at cha!

    The best thing about this meme is seeing what kind of music will show up for your answer and how you will explain it.

    Good selection.

  4. @ Miss Saditty...

    You're visiting from my baby blog sista's block, the House of Serenity!! Thanks for stopping by, and come again!

    @Freaky...

    Dude, first of all, you've been blocking my work ISP, and I don't appreciate it. Ain't my fault that my coworkers lurk on your blog. Un-ass my ISP address, please!

    And I've never done a "Shuffle Meme". It was strange coming up with reasonings behind the songs. Had to think on my feet, man!

    @"Mister" aka 2nd 68...

    Man, I've dealt with a couple of dudes that had my voice cracking out of control like Keyshia Cole. I guard my emotions like Fort Knox now... I would probably be under some voodoo spell if that mess ever happen again. Be sure to virtually slap me if you hear the hard voice crack. LOL

    I like that Blackstreet song, but we need a girl group to remake it. I was watering my garden, singing that song very loudly. I live in a gay neighborhood, so my neighbors were probably peeping out there windows... listening and grinning hard.

    HUMPH.

    Player, I should get EVERY night off, especially since I'm slaving over a hot stove everyday. Make these other broads take care of you!!

    LOL!! I love picking at you!!!

  5. EVERY night off? Girl you don't cook that good!

    ...

    Well...

    Maybe you do.

    But I don't got an opening for a chef! See the chef don't get to get all glammed up and show up on the red carpets with me!

    Besides you ALREADY get special dispensation for the cooking! You must not have read my genetic chart! You didn't notice all the names that had "manhoe" under them? Especially the ones that are along my line of descent?

    If not for the cooking, you would at least have to kick ya game up another 40%! Minimum...

    And I will remember to be on the lookout for the voice crack and the wide nostrils.

    LMAO @ the gay neighborhood. Is there any that aren't in ATL? But then again, you got the snooty ones don't ya?

  6. GEEZ! I couldn't sleep 'cuz that meme was so long. Mayne, all you had to do was list the songs, but the stories were funny as hell.
