Sorrrry! What can I say other than these last couple of weeks of Summer have been filled with entertainment and unexpected surprises!

First off, Can I just say that moving to Jersey was pretty major for me, I mean I never expected to even leave NY but now that I am here I truly do like it. In many ways it reminds me so much of being back in LA but with the NYC so close by, I can always just get up and feel as if I am in a different place.

Jersey has not only brought back a lot of memories from LA to me but has brought out a lot me to the east coast. I found some parts of me that I had left behind and really missed. I feel more at home, comfortable in my skin and ready to let go and truly enjoy myself.

1. I finished the "interior design" of my apartment finally- and it looks very fabulous. (pictures to come soon)
2. I have been going out pretty much every weekend on a consistent basis-- and enjoying every minute of it!
3. I am dating ... and that's all your getting for now. :o)
4. I am finally happy with my roommate choice and really do not have major cause for complaint.

I will fill you in on more stories and thoughts ... but for now just know that for a change. All is good!

The Man Child

Some people say it's an Urban Legend, a myth that such a man could exist among us. That no one, least of all parent's, be enablers to such behavior. I am her to tell you that yes, it not only exists-- but there is more of them out there than you think. So let's get it out there, a precise definition that will have you all running to Urban dictionary to confirm:

Man Child:

A man child is a male who is over the age of 25, who still lives as though he is a juvenile. Many man-children are not gainfully employed, and survive off of the financial support of their enabling parents. Heavy video-game addiction to fantasy games are key to the man-child.

Where do I start?

let's do the short version. Two years ago I met someone special. Good Looking, Good Job, getting ready to graduate college with a double major and best of all single. A catch right? Wrong and worst of all I didn't even see it coming.

As time went by, I got to know him and we had so much in common, More than I really have had with anyone in the past. He opened up, shared and validated some of my thoughts. Everything was pretty peachy considering we lived thousand of miles apart. Ohhh ya, that small detail.

I always thought, maybe if I could get out to LA or him out here ... something might happen between us. But every time I would see him, nothing. Fast forward more than 2 years later and I was on the opposite coast frustrated and angry with myself for letting it o so far. Then after a conversation about action figures (don't ask) I realized something .... I have been investing all this time and effort into someone who really never wants to grow up.

O
M
G

Think about it ....

1. He is getting older (late 20's) ... and has yet to have a serious relationship.

2. He still lives at home .... with his parent's in the house he was raised in.

3. He has yet to graduate college- only taking 1 or 2 classes a semester-- and still doesn't even know how many credits he has to go.

4. He has action figures on his desk at his fancy expensive office in Beverly Hills. (wtf?)

5. He can not Man Up and tell me how he feels or even work up the nerve to kiss me.

and finally

6. Hasn't bothered to even attempt to visit me in NY.

Now that I have pretty much put my personal life on blast, I hope you take from this what you can and learn that A Man Child as the one described above that is being enabled by his parent's will never grow up until he wants to. So ladies, save your energy and move on when you see the suspicious signs .... it will save you a lot of time and heart ache ... in that you should trust!

**Before I get the bitter women comment's, let me just say that the only person I am disappointed here is myself -- for not opening my eyes up a lot sooner.

Very Short NERD/Common Recap

Last night i went to the NERD/Common show at the Wiltern mostly to hear the new stuff Common has in store for his new album via Pharrell Williams. His set was cool, there was a lil plot, I appreciate that. He did some old classics and the new stuff was easy to point out since it sounded like everything that could have been scrapped from the NERD seeing sounds record. Some of the stuff fit him a few didn't over all i am interested.

here is a youtube clip of the show

NERD was there acting up per-usual. Now me and Pwilly might have made it at one point but his crazy freaky ass was doing the most last night! She Wants to Move included a stage full of tweens with Double D's. If he was big enough to left any of these girls i would have feared he might just have.

I'm pretty sure this chick made it on stage

great show over all!

When One Door Closes, Another Bedroom Door Opens ....

So, first let me apologies for the lack of postings. I couldn't help it .... Solis has been doing so a great job with the postings that I really feel I could kick back a little and live life. And well ... I have been living it. Recap:

1. LA guy-- that i have liked for the past god knows how many years has been kicked out. I know I rarely even mention him in the blog (if at all) but the space in my heart he occupied is now empty. Sometimes when your feelings are put out there and nothing is heard back ... well it's time to move on. (Yes, Solis you can clap-- I finally got it). 2 points for me and the only way this is going to change is by a HUGE gesture being made on his end and that is doubtful to come. **Look out for the blog on "Man Child" next week ... it will be a doozey and explain this situation a lot more.

2. So, at work they are remodeling some of the floors- bringing around a very handsome architect type which has for some reason found some interest in me. Any who ... I haven't seen him in a couple weeks and when I was in a meeting last week he stopped by the office and left an interesting message on my desk. Cutting to the chase: pretty much- he is interested and I am interested to hear what he has to say. Story still developing, will advise soon.

3. Jersey. Let me just say that I have never gotten myself involved with someone who is pretty much the complete opposite of me and my taste in men but this one takes the cake. Although I know he is a good guy (since I did meet him through a good friend), I'm not exactly sure where, if at all anywhere, this will go.

Over all, you know what they say-- Best way to get over someone is to get under someone new.

I have turned a new leaf ....

and that's all I'm going to say. Life is good and I plan to enjoy every minute of this upcoming fall season.

Everyone in California is Listening to Lil Wayne

Ok this is getting serious people. When everyone in Highschool was listening to lil Wayne th

at was one thing but when i say EVERYONE i mean just that. Today at the gas station some

Armenian Soccer dad (child seat and ALL) was BUMPING it, my friend from Michigan, The soccer mom i passed on the 101, MY DAD!

Here is my "Everyone Listens to Lil Wayne" Story:

How I meet Stephan Murbary over Lil Wayne

This story takes place at a Moble Gas Station on Ventura in North Hollywood.

Our scene opens as a tired Yanna Beau pulls up to fill up her 96 honda at a near by gas station before it stalls on her. As she pulled up she notices a car next to her looking something like this:

filling up and blasting something like this:

So as she continued to ignore whatever Hollywood FOOL would be eager enough to turn

a gas station into a club, she began to fill up.

But the music began getting to her, she started swaying and boppin, and saying crazy stuff like "What's a ghoul to a goblin?"

Until finally she turned to this young man to say...

"Excuse me you HAVE to turn that down! You are gonna have me cuttin up at the gas station and that can't happen"

"HAHA well cut up then!" was the young man's reply

after a shared laugh she went back to checking on her pump, to her surprise, the

man cam over,

"Hey where are you from?"

"New York!" she boasted proudly

"WORD! me too! where at?"

"Queens"

"WERD!! Where at in Queens?"

At this point Yanna is being towered by the young man and can clearly see his tattooed head and is thinking MAYBE he plays ball...

"Ummm Far Rockaway, Where are u from!?"

"Coney Island"

"Oh nah i'm not from NY i'm from New Jersey, south jersey"

(to make this at all funny, in LA yanna often likes to act like she is the only real New YOrker in the state, often claiming her mother's hometown as her own, she is rarely called out on her shit)

And this point the young man laughs and backs up off our poor Yanna Beau

"Ohight yeah i see you back down off that one haha"

the young man returns to his super time travel car and drives off with this as his exit music:

Before his exit though he throughs out a

"Ight Ma' Have a good one!"

Yanna waves, and then quickly google searches Pro-basetball players from Coney Island via her BlackBerry, YEP she just meet Stephon Marbury! And he only mildly sexually harrashed her which leaves this writer to believe she must have been looking pretty tired.

The end!
