I was thought of...

I don't usually do these, and I probably never will again, but since I'm SO tired and dont have the energy to finish the dialogue... i'mma work this tag out

1. Link the person(s) who tagged you…
1/3, Hadassah, Niga and Cannon

2. Mention the rules in your blog…
Ummmm, yeah... theses are them

3. Tell about 6 unspectacular quirks of yours

~I can float on my back in a pool for endless amounts of time....

~I speak Creole, English, French (on a basic level), and know American Sign Language; also, I speak some Spanish and understand quite a bit more

~I like talking to strangers that are nice. In fact, in one instance, me and my friend were at an Emeril's restaurant and I actually gave a piece of my steak to the couple sitting next to me cause the husband was ALL about my steak... and just wanted to try it. Next thing I know, they are paying for our dessert.... I love stuff like that

~I THOROUGHLY enjoy being alone. Not ALL the time, but at least one or two times a week if I can pull it. No phones, no conversation, and no people to people interaction is ideal...

~I've rotated my own tires... changed my own oil (with the help of friend at his house) and get down when it comes to yard work. It's soooo not my favorite thing to do on a Sunday, but I will if I see fam workin it out... I don't mind helpin out

~I hate eating the same stuff for days on end. My step mom has cooked large meals for as long as I can remember that last 2-3 days...I don't know if it's cause it's been like that my WHOLE life, but I'm definately cannot do it anymore (unless i'm broke, or starving)

4. Tag 6 following bloggers by linking them
I'm breakin this rule cause whoever wants to do this has already done it....and whoever hasn't and wants to...well...do it and say i told u to...

5. Leave a comment on each of the tagged blogger’s blogs letting them know they’ve been tagged
n/a

6. Unspectacular quirks
Didn't I just do this?

One Man’s Opinion said...

You funny. Talking to strangers...LOL. I too enjoy being alone. Alone means no Drama and I am all about NO drama.

Jameil said...

you were very belligerent about accomplishing this!!! you like talking to strangers? no indeed but they certainly like talking to me. GO 'WAY!! i'm not big on leftovers past day one either. yard work is not for the kid.

Charles said...

I can't swim at all...you might have to show me. And that talking to strangers thing?? I don't actually like doing it, but they come up to me and we have a convo nonetheless...and there are some very interesting people out there...

Desy said...

@deja- i think it has a little to do with them having 60 half brothers and sisters cause haitian men are slutatious

@the flyy- i love surprising people when they see i can speak yet ANOTHER language...lol.. but i kno i'm gonna lose it the less i use it

@rah-thoroughly-er?...really?... 10 points for that one mr. w

@one- strangers are awesome...lol.. honesty reduces drama as well, and i have some blunt ass friends that make my world AMAZING

@jam- belligerent? i wouldn't say i was THAT against it... but...well, maybe i was...lol...

@charles- well, bein that i'm no pro, i may have to get you some lessons and i'll just cheer you on from the side...lol; some strangers are cool... and then that's it.. there's no developing relationship or drama to follow... it was just a convo for right then and there... love those

guerreiranigeriana said...

i guess that worked out...i had tagged you...let me go read and be dazzled!...

guerreiranigeriana said...

i envy you being able to float...i never could do that!!!...even when i was little...was the hardest thing...

...i don't know why i keep wanting to make you nigerian when you are haitian...whatever...haitian, nigerian, its all the same anyway, right?;)...

...this was interesting, especially the strangers piece...i especially love to be alone, driving long distances on the west coast, just me, the music and the scenery with no one talking to me...

Adei von K said...

damn! you better get it on that manual car stuff!! All I can do is check the dip stick. and by that, I just pull it out, look at it and put it back in.

i can eat the same thing for a week too (I see you Rashan). My spaghetti is something I can eat everyday!

you with the strangers. wow. i can see myself sharing with someone but all that talking? i'm not sure. prob. yeah. i'm from the south (kinda)

Brittany said...

I don't like to get down and dirty. Doing yard or car stuff...I'm not that type of girl.

who? said...

No swimming for the Cannon... I'm too cool for that shit.

wow... lotta languages... I had a bad education of other languages (except latin, which almost seems pointless for me to know since a very small population actually use the language)

Muze said...

wow i can't even swim. let alone float on my back. LOL.

you are my new hero for speaking all those languages.

seriously, that is ultra cool. lol.

being alone rocks cause you'll never get on your own nerves.

and if you do, you can just shut up and go to sleep.

lol.

hope all is fab your way. *smiles*

1/3 said...

Me 2! I can float but ask me to do something else lol I will drown lol

oh ok I'm jealous!!! I took spanish for like 4 years and still cant speak it lol

ummm..yea talking to strangers is cool sometimes..cute ones anyway lol

Me 2! But its impossible in my house:-( Counting down the days till I get my own place.

get em desy! I need to learn how to do some of the stuff.

WHo are you telling! I like to eat something different everyday. Too bad thats not possibility for me anyway lol

Unknown said...

Sparking conversation with random people has never been my thing...way too shy for that, but I admire you that can

Time alone is a necessity as is Speedy Oil Change And Tune Up...I'm not the one for rotating tires

Jinta said...

i love being alone sometimes, or being with someone who does not feel the need to talk just cos we're together. sometimes, i wonder when some people get time to think

Don said...

i wouldn't have you figured for changing your oil and rotating tires. guess that's why this is only a blog. hell, i need mines rotated now.

co-sign food on ends, unless its pizza and crab legs.

i love "me time" as well. people are fickle.

Unknown said...

I check out 1980's blog sometimes. I saw a comment from you so I decided to take a peak.

Thanks for the comment. I'll do my best..lol

soumynona said...

Oooh Desy you courting or you could be getting courted (LOL at myself because Im so funny and presumptious and mostly right, he is hawt tho...) I digress...
I love talking to strangers nice and mean its a weird funny feeling but I like doing it. Most of my lady friends hate it but the ones that like it, we can kick it at a grocery store

Desy said...

@niga- hahaha, maybe i have 9ja-esk quality about me...who knows... but i definately follow quite a bit of you... love me some nigerians...(my very closest friend is from there...we get on famously)

@stace- lol... i had a friend show me... and because i am comfortable changing a tire, I just one day decided to rotate... i won't do it again cause that ish took forever.. but it was cool to try it; and i think i'm ok with certain things on day 2 or 3... but for the most part... i'm a one dayer

@britt- now why does that not surprise me...lol

@can- languages are fun when you get to use them... the only reason why i know so many is because i've had to use them... it was cool

@muze- swimming and floating are very different. I float like a pro, swim like an amatuer..lol... you have a wonderful weekend too hun...

@1/3- hahaha at u drownin...i'm glad i don't have a million siblins to deal with... eatin different food for me aint possible either (poor college student)... but i do my best...lol

@terr- hahaha... i only initiate with strangers if there is something we are mutually observing that just MUST be discussed, or he is incredibly attractive and i have to say so... otherwise it happens vice versa... it's that karma thing. I'm tryin not to expect my perfect man to do things that i don't do... thus, if i want him to approach, i need to be able to do the same

@jintu- lmfao... i love those quiet moments... that's when i do my best writing... as i think of you of course *wink*

@don- i was raised by my dad and brudder... i'm more hands on than people tend to expect cause i'm all about the stiletto's after a quick shower... a girly girl who gets down...

@soum- i could go both was... to court or be courted... just depends on the situation... kickin it at the grocery store?...really? why?

Smaragd said...

same as GN i totally assumed u were nigerian! especially since i could relate so well with a lot of the things you write.

i love talking to FRIENDLY strangers(who know when to keep quiet)
i yearn to be able to float, but sadly cant even swim well yet
i speak english, german(almost fluently), french(basic), spanish&italian(very basic, use my french knowledge most of the time)
and Yoruba (fluently).
i love being alone in the midst of people(confusing, but true, cuz i'm a people person yet love to have my space)

soumynona said...

I was actually inferring that you were currently involved in the courting process and that someone was feeling you and you were feeling someone. I kick it wherever I go, be it grocery store or the club but you meet all sorts of random people at the grocery store so starting conversations is easier

Desy said...

@smar- wow! u are my nigerian counterpart...outstanding... german?!?! that's impressive

@soum- who me? being courted? when? did i miss that memo?... and i'm def not courting anyone... what gave u that impression?

James Tubman said...

you are a fascinating woman

i guess you have to something to occupy your time other than having sex lol

i.can't.complain. said...

u just went up 4 levels in my sexy srating system

which was really hard considering u were already at the top

it's a highly technical system, D

u can change your own oil...

that's the hottness

*imagining desy speaking spanish/french*

i like nice people too.

strangers or friends.

alone time is soooo under-rated.

im glad u can appreciate it.

Unknown said...

I enjoy being alone too. I could be alone for three whole days... maybe even more and not feel lonely. I like the time - so I can hear myself think...

People who don't like to be alone... yeah I'm with Jinta on that one. When do they get the time to think?
