So this past Saturday, I went on a trip to Charleston, SC with my mom and…gracious me, it was a lot of fun and I can’t believe my mom didn’t cancel it on me.

Wow. Just…wow.


P.S I got me some brand new Vans, too! A blue pair and a red pair. Yaaay!! :D :D

Why are all of you so kind to me, what the hell?!?!?!




My mother was the one to check the mailbox today and she gave this to me as soon as I rolled over and woke up this morning-that-was-almost-afternoon. It...it was a wonderful surprise after waking up from a pretty good dream where I was a nurse teaching a student.

I'm still tearing up. Thank you.

I'm still alright-just letting ya'll know where I'll be in case you worried. I miss my 3 black girl witches with their werewolf surgeon father in Moonlight Falls. ^ ^

Your Amarie is old as fuck at 28-years-old tomorrow. Dear...god in heaven...I made it to 28.

I made it to 28. I did that shit. I really, really did that.

Ya'll, I done listened to the new Can You Feel the Love Tonight, with Beyonce and that coon ass Donald Glover. I also saw a video of the sequence for Hakuna Matata.

On the first song I mentioned...Donald can neither keep up with Bey nor can he blend his voice well with hers. It's part of why so many fans are already demanding a Beyonce-only version to listen to.

And then the second song...apparently you can put just about any other song over the scene of Simba, Timon, and Pumba and you wouldn't know it was that particular song sequence.

Like...I ain't even gonna link to either one of these songs because damn. We been knew these remakes weren't all that and a bag of chips, but my goodness.

I'm like...first live action!Aladdin has white actors in brownface and we been guessed.

And now I'm like ya'll niggas really done messed up The Lion King, my goodness. Ya'll niggas barely even tried.

Hey, ya’ll.

Mama was in a car accident today-she got hit by a freakin’ young driver speeding in a red sports car.

Our SUV is perfectly fixable-just gotta fix his grill/face and drive a rental in the meantime. It’s the other woman’s fault, so all of this is coming out of her insurance (I am gleeful about her future premiums) and Mama is not at all injured. Just shaking and shocked. She’s coming down, though.

We really, really didn’t need this, but we’re alright. We’re pulling through.

Just keep us in your thoughts if you can spare, huh?

Hey there, ya'll!

My name is Amarie and I am in fact still alive, LOLOL! :P :P

A couple of you have told me that you couldn't see the picture showing all that Lonespark sent me as a surprise in the mail. So here's a list as I rifle through the box. (And yes, I'm still crying my freakin' eyes out):

-A pwetty sky blue Black Panther (comics style) tank top (I...do admit that Imma have to keep stretching it out a lil bit after each laundry round. But it fits and it's comfy!!!)

-Amber and the Hidden City book, by Milton Davis

-The Tuskegee Heirs: Flames of Destiny, #1 comic book, by Williams, Burnham, & Schultz

-Agents of the Realm, Semester 1: Volume 1 graphic novel, by Mildred Louis (Holy fucking shit its style reminds me so much of Sailor Moon that I'm having a In-The-Name-Of-The-Moon-gasm just looking at the cover.)

-Ellis and the Magic Mirror, by Cerece & Aryeh Rennie Murphy (It seems to be a junior novel with plenty of art that's the cutest you've ever seen!!)

-Malice in Ovenland comic book, by Micheline Hess


It all looks & is absolutely wonderful...although Imma be honest with you all and confess that I haven't read any of it.

I haven't read any more than I've really written.

I'm trying, though, ya'll. I'm trying to go as fast & as well as I can to recover from this shit nervous breakdown and continue to carve out my path in life. I'm doing the absolute best I can & I deeply appreciate all that you all do for me. Lonespark, thank you so much again for sending me these wonderful gifts!!!

I love you all and see you soon!!!


--Amarie

You din went and made me cry is what you just done did!!!!




Why, why, why, why?!?!??! Ya'll be oh-so very kind and sweet and indulgent with me and I don't understand it and I be crying up a storm and whhhhhyyyyy?!?!?!?!

Thank you, friend. Thank you oh-so very, very, very much. I deeply love & appreciate everything. I don't have time to read them right now, but as soon as I do rest assured that I'll dig in with relish!!!!


P.S Also, the reason I haven't been around much is because nursing school is just...god, I hate this program. I...don't know if I'll pass this time around and I am beyond exhausted and burnt out. But please ya'll always know that I try my very best and do as much as I can. Love ya and see you soon!!!!

Woohooooooo!!!!!

Nice white dude. I left him a $3 tip in cash, it wasn't much from my broke ass but it was something.

It felt like Reverse Driving Mrs. Daisy. :P :P
