Boys
Not the type to act out and show my emotions but I love to write them down...Everyone that knows me know that I can write my ass off. Most of you don't know about the person I dealt with and its a good thing you don't. Wouldn't say He was the worst thing that happened to me but he most definintely wasn't the best. Something like trying to fit a triangle into a circle space....IT'S JUST NOT GOING TO WORK. Should've been told myself this but eh..Yea Im somewhat hard headed have to get hurt in order to get the shit through. But its whatever its clear as day what must be done...I can't continue to deal with boys.

How Do You Make a Daddy?
A reader contacted me and the more we spoke, the more I felt this would help her. I posted this somewhere else but here you go, darling!
Father (fah-th er) -noun
1. a male parent.
2. a man who exercises paternal care over other persons; paternal protector or provider
It's simple for a dictionary to just give us these words and expect it to be suffice. But, a father is so much more.
He is supposed to be the first man you live with. The first man to tell you that you are beautiful and offer you the world. He's supposed to toss you in the air and chase away those night-time monsters or at least show you that the "monster" is the clothes you forgot to put away.
He is your source of foundation. You watch in awe how he perfectly balances out the superhero your mom is. You fall in love with his smells and the scruff of his beard as he kisses you goodnight. Your father is the first man to give you a pet name. "Hey Pumpkin!" "Good Morning, Babydoll!" "How's Daddy's Little Girl?"
He tells you your worth so that you don't get back the wrong change. He prepares you for the bitter world of the opposite sex because he's "done it all". He wipes away the tears after you fall off your bike when he lets go. He eats your vegetables when your mom isn't looking so you won't sit at the kitchen table all night long.
He lets you sit on his shoulders at the parade so you don't miss the floats. As you get older, he interrogates the guys you bring around. He deals with your PMS because it reminds him that his "princess" is almost a QUEEN. That's what the fathers on TV do, anyway.
I'm sorry, Webster's Dictionary, you didn't provide with me that.
But, neither did the men my mom brought in my life. I've been a Daddyless girl for as long as I can remember. My grandfather was the first man I lived with. But, he was hardly around. Yet, I loved when he'd come home and pat me on the head, "Hey Kid...que pasa?" I look forward to those moments even today. It is the one thing a man has given to me without finding a way to take it back.
I considered "fathers" a lost cause for me. I gave 18 years of my life to men who left me unprepared for life. Alas! Boys liked me. I began to cling to and "love" every guy who gave me enough attention. I was lost in myself. They claimed to see me. How? I couldn't even see myself! I became a blank canvas for them to paint who they wanted me to be. I allowed all these men to convince me that THEY knew what was right for ME. And, I got the attention I so badly craved.They weren't giving me what I deserved, though. Every night, my drawer came up short. I was losing. And, I just couldn't let that happen.
A father is defined as a man who "protects" and "provides". But, THAT'S WHAT THEY WERE DOING.....right? Protecting us from STDS as they Provided me with good/bad sex?!? Protecting me from the "dangers" that happen in movie theaters, museums, and parks while providing me with mediocre conversations and awkward silence while we got dressed after more sex? No? I missed the point? Clearly.
I wasn't trusting myself enough to make the right decisions for me. Maybe it was because I didn't care. If these guys were giving me what I felt I needed, why waste time looking for self-enlightenment. They didn't think I was so bad. Soon enough, that hole wasn't so easy to fill. I didn't trust men in the driver's seat anymore. I refused to be the passenger in my life any longer. I started to look in the mirror and see hints of a face I hadn't seen in a while.
"Hey you!"
"Hey me!"
I am a member of the "fatherless tribe". But, I refuse to let that be what defines me. Although, my sole requirement in a man was "someone who will be a great father to my kids", I now fully understand it. I want a man who can provide and protect. Currently, I'm provided with the love I sought from myself. My heart is protected only because I am now wiser as to who's hands I place it in. He's a provider and protector, as well. He doesn't look at me as a blank canvas for him to paint on but, as a mound of clay for Taniqua to shape herself into who she wants to be. He provides me with inspiration and insight to how high in value I am. He protects me from those who are looking to turn me into chump change. I'm no longer trying to turn my dollar into your fifteen cents.

Who gave this motherfucker a record deal though?...I know Ya remember this corny ass song! lol
ADOPTION: Do you think adoption has an effect on someones life?
Me and my Adoptive Mom
Me personally I believe so...I asked my fellow blog mate Ginger and she said it does but then again everyone takes things differently. Me being adopted I see that I need attention not that I crave it but when I feel like I'm being ignored in anyway I automatically crawl into a shell. I wouldn't know why exactly I feel this way but I just do....Maybe because I feel that my Bio-logical parents abandonded me so will everyone else.
But it was for the best Sharon was a crackhead and James was a drug dealer/ Convicted cop killer. I guess thats why I'm so " Bugged Out" as Ginger would say lol. But besides all that I'm really grateful that my adopted mother (Judy)saved my life lord knows where I would've winded up. Everyone asks me why I never look for my bio-logical parents..But I think if they wanted to see me they would contact me I lived at the same location my whole damn life.
Sharon use to be around only when my grandma was alive and kept shit together. Isn't it sad when that one person that kept everyone together passes away?
She was around for birthdays until I was 3 yrs old and then after grandma died I didn't see her until I was 7 and that would be the last.
I seen James before he got deported I was around 6yrs old kinda sucks because I remember going to see a man but I just can't remember his face....and a year later I went to albany to see sharon I can honestly say that I remember that trip to a T .The visit was not welcoming at all. I was really excited to see my younger sister shadae , she was the only one that showed love. I haven't seen them since its been 15years....

Trey Songz * Anticipation
I think it's already been established that I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Trey Songz! I give you his latest project, Anticipation. This mixtape is w i c k e d!! Definitely some tracks that need to be added to everyone's SEXYTIME playlists like "Scratchin Me Up", "On Top", and "Make It Rain". LADIES, ARE YOUR PUSSIES THROBBING YET?!?
Two tracks were pre-released by Trey Songz during Trey Songz Music Monday, "You Belong To Me" and "She Ain't My Girl" featuring Sammie. If you're a vagina-owner on Twitter and NOT following this harmonious songbird from Songbook, you are crazy! [@songzyuuup] If my mister didn't handle his business, Trey's shirtless live video streams would be my only way I knew my plumbing worked just fine. Wink muhfckin WINK!!!
**I can't even get my silly computer to get me a link. The zhare link is now defunct. Sorry folks. I'll work on it.
RSNY * The Remixes
The third mixtape from artists Yung Juggz, G Swagger, Rockstar Remix, Fly Guy Nycks, Beniton Da Menace, Drugzzz B, and Casino, all hailing from Far Rockaway is hosted by DJ Jasmine Solano. This mixtape features their popular hit, "Addicted to Weed", a personal favorite of mine, "Shorty Bad" and covers of some of your favorite tracks out now.
Not to get all sappy on ya'll muhfckaz, but I am so proud of the hard work these guys have put into their projects. Before "Powerbomb That Ho", these fellas were dancing machines and party promoting phenoms. I'm happy to have watched them on their path from the Rock to the Top.
Download the mixtape so the next time you hear one of the tracks in the club, you can sing along.
