A-List Updates

Good morning my sexy lil' duckies. I'm not even going to ask you if everything is "alright" because I know it is. Life is beautiful and if you're having an ugly day, you better show God your receipt lol. Anywho, the train ride to work was so weird today. First this sketchy-looking guy kept starting at me...



and whenever I knew he was looking I would roll my eyes. This stopped his staring for about two seconds...then he would continue! It got to the point where I rolled my eyes so much I caught a slight headache. (This is what happens when God shows off creating you; people just never know when to quit.) A few stops later he gets off (thank you Jesus) but I guess the "obnoxious quota" wasn't filled on the train because a group of 20-something ladies run, to sit in the space next to me.



The girl closest to me smelled like a cocktail of discount perfume & 'pleather' and kept bumping me because she was telling an intense story (no, I wasn't eavesdropping). The bumping got annoying after awhile. But I didn't say anything because all of them were really pretty. It's hard for me to tell pretty girls what they're doing wrong; I appreciate beauty too much. But if they had been ugly (woooooooohuh!) they would have felt the wrath lol.

In regards to (yesterday's) A-list news, one of the barista's at Starbucks is always so nice to me. He's always like...



"Hey, how are you?" "See you tomorrow," or "You again?!"

LOL, little things like that make my life.

In addition, I had a business lunch, with an alum from my school (University of Hartford), who actually helped me get my internship with HarperCollins. Amazing, right?!



We went to this chic little spot called Mangia; it was divine. She had me cracking up, sharing stories about New Year's Eve and Hartford. I had a great time. Plus, she took care of the bill. She's such a phenomenal woman. (Thanks Lisa!)

FAT UPDATE!
I learned how to make a Milky Way Latte at work yesterday.



This little package (above) has so much flavor. (That sounded so dirty lol) I love Milky Way Lattes! It felt like God was juggling my taste buds.

OH! SASS UPDATE (not for me but this guy who was driving a Range Rover last night).

As you know New Yorkers are always in a rush (myself included; ask any of my friends how fast I walk). So on my way home a bus decided to try and 'beat the light," only to block the light for the opposing side of traffic. So this guy driving a Range Rover decided to try to ease up on the crosswalk, after the light turned red. All of a sudden, a lady wearing this hot mink, starts walking in front of the Range Rover and...



violently slaps down on the Range Rover's hood...AND GIVES THE GUY A "WATCH IT B*TCH" FACE! Everyone of the corner (including myself) just looked at around at each other like, "Did that just happen?" It was hilarious! What makes it more hysterical is the guy driving the Range Rover backed-up a little.

Speaking of backing-up, I was taken aback yesterday because my supervisor told me they're throwing a party for me this Friday.



Isn't that exciting?! I was so surprised. Plus, she complimented me on my work ethic. I felt so appreciated. I'm going to miss this job. Hopefully I'll get a job with HC this summer.




I've kept you waiting long enough, let's get to the quote of the day (Jan 14th):

"You are what you say you are. Saying something aloud gives life (belief) to the said statement. Say positive things (no matter how far fetched you think they may be) and watch them appear before your eyes."

I have something to share two things with you. These are not sexy.



I hate Long John's. I think if they were called "LJ's" I'd wear them with pride. Today I'm wearing them and I'm sweating like a lamb in a slaughterhouse.

AND...



HAPPY 21st BIRTHDAY GRAHAM! I love you man! BROMANCE lol! Don't do anything I wouldn't do (which means you can do whatever the hell you want lol).

I wish you the best of happiness. Stay true.

Peace, love & Obama,
Gabriel Anderson

The Cocoa Dust Wars

Morning duckies! Yeah, yeah I was tired last night so I'm posting now. (DON'T SASS ME!) I hope all is well because that's how life should be.
I've been noticing that my favorite color combo, pink & brown, are popping up in more places than usual.



I just love the two colors together because the pink is so precious and innocent and the (chocolate) brown is seductive and smooth. It's like a color orgasm.

Anywho, speaking of sexy on my way to work (like a few minutes ago) there was the cutest little kid sitting next to me. He had very light skin, curly brown hair and gorgeous eyes. He was so beautiful that I wanted to cry because God made a child as beautiful as I am an adult; he was really that beautiful! I want my children to look just like him. My children's names are going to be:

Graham Aiden Gardner


and

Kaleigh Jade Gardner


....aren't those such precious children?! I can't wait to have them in my life. (But I'm getting a nanny because I don't do clean-up or vomit control. Oh nooooo! Woooohuh!)

Speaking of children, you guys remember that sexy pea coat I bought to be this year's winter coat?
(To refresh your memory, here's a shot!)



Well...this coat is a lint magnet. It's like having a child! I have to lint brush it and check for any abnormalities every morning. (Yes, I said children are like pea coats.) If children are like pea coats...I can wait lol. In regards to my pea coat, I forgot to lint brush it yesterday and I felt like a shaggy dog.



Plus, I felt like everyone was looking at me on the train...like hardcore staring at me.



But I came to the conclusion that people stare at what they want the most. So BAM....I'm just that damn irresistible lol.

(WARNING: THE FOLLOWING IMAGE IS TOTALLY DISGUSTING!!!)
Speaking of trains...I saw something disgusting in the back of the 6 train 51st Street train station.
I go to the back of the train because the rush hour crowd is unbearable toward the front. Anyway, I was waiting for the train (jamming to Beyonce of course) and I see something out the corner of my eye. Thinking I saw like a rat or something I look down to see...


(THIS IS THE ACTUAL PICTURE!)

HOBO DROPPINGS!!!! EWWWWW! It looked so dry too. So dry that if the owner of these droppings farted on the train, doo-doo dust would contaminate the air. It would look like Cocoa dust. (Could you imagine that? Bums using their doo-doo dust as means of biological warfare?! It would be called "The Cocoa Dust War.")

SCARY!

Enough of that...let's get to the quote of the day, Jan 13th:

"Everything happens for a reason. The good things are awards we truly deserve and the bad things are tools that help us appreciate those well-deserved awards. Appreciate everything."

I'd like to give a shout-out to my little brother/son Dante for calling me the other night. I can't go to bed without speaking to someone on the phone and Dante saved the day. Thanks Dante.



Last night my friend Sean, whom I haven't spoken to in ages, called me last night. We were sassing each other in sport and it was a delight to hear his voice. Love you Sean!

(Random...a mail guy just passed my office blaring Beyonce's "Halo" from his headphones. She's taking over the world and I love it!)

Today is going to be fabulous. I wish you the best of happiness. Stay true.

Peace, love & Obama,
