How are you all doing?
I got some troubling news yesterday.... My brother did a DNA test to learn about his ancestry, and he found out he has a different father. Our mom lied about why he looks so different from me and my other siblings for many years. How do you keep such a huge secret for so long? A big part of my brother's life was a lie. My dad found out back in 2004, and continued to love my brother as his son, though mostly from a distance. We all moved a lot, and my dad reenlisted in the army in 2006. My family is so complicated. I do appreciate my dad even more now.
My brother learned that he has Puerto Rican, English, Portuguese, Spanish, Middle Eastern, and African ancestry.
I’m so sorry… Did you talk to your mom about it? What did she say? :(
I have not talked to her about it yet. My brother sent her a lengthy text, and she replied with an explanation and deep regret. She was 16 and was with the wrong people and her own family life was messed up. My brother took her answer to be a cop-out and he wants more of an apology for not telling him the truth.
That’s a really big thing to not know the truth about all your life. :(
How goes the healing process, Tiny? <3
@jesusredeemedme2425 I'm doing much better 💖😁😁💖
Physically or emotionally or mentally?
@jesusredeemedme2425 physically worse. But mentally and emotionally doing pretty good😁💖
I'm so glad that you're in good spirits. ❤️ I think about you lots. I want so badly for the physical part to get better for you too
@Torean don't worry I'm having fun riding around in the remote control wheelchair😁😁 I haven't crashed toooo many times😁😁💖
Heheh, I'm definitely glad that there's that. 😂
“Too many” XD
Pond, Cy, Sandra, how you guys doing? Whatcha up to lately? <3
@jesusredeemedme2425 and @Torean???
@Tinywhisper11 and kiara??
Eh I’m all right, reading VORACIOUSLY hehe
Somehow I missed his name on the list, sorry bro lol! I talk to him all the time tho so I get brownie points right??? Hehe
@jesusredeemedme2425 brownie points?? What does that mean??
It means she thinks that she deserves brownies. 😜
I'm kidding, it basically means kinda like earning points with someone, or getting on their good side.
@Torean ohhhhh! Ok yes kiara you get brownie points and whitey points💖😁💖
Whitey points? 😅
Those are blondie points. The opposite of brownies hehe
See, blondie points sound more versatile and fun. I feel like "whitey points" could only be traded in for certain things, like... North Face jackets, Country CD's, SUV's, Tuesday taco nights, pumpkin spice coffee, Applebee's gift cards... 😂
@Torean 😂😂😂😂 I just didn't want to sound racist😁
Lol, well now I'm having fun with it. 😂😂 To continue that list, let's see... Wraps with chicken and lettuce and shredded yellow cheese and mayo, yoga/pilates class excursions at beach resorts during a cruise, wood-bordered signs to put up on shelves in the home that include the word "blessed" in cursive letters...
Ooh, and those same signs, but saying "Live, Laugh, Love".
@Torean 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I can’t STAND pumpkin spiced anything lol
It's, like, ok. At best
It’s not even that lol
From Mom to Tiny:
Hellllooò
@jesusredeemedme2425 hi mrs Fred 💖 how have you been? Did you have a nice xmas?
Mom says:
Day after was fun. Day of was boring
@jesusredeemedme2425 well I'm glad the day after was fun 💖💖 that's why I buy myself toys and things to do so Xmas won't be sad or boring😁
Mom says:
I buy myself friends. Lol jk
@jesusredeemedme2425 how are you @Torean?? I'll try be around a bit more 💖 I always think about you to. I miss your funny brain💖😁
I'm doing ok. ❤️ I've had a pretty good weekend of going places with friends that I don't usually get around to point. Tired though, and I had more delicious Indian food than my stomach can deal with. How about you?
And I miss your funny brain too. 😁😁❤️ As much as you can be around, I'm there for it!
Do tell about the Indian food! <3
Also don’t forget to chime in on the Indian food post hehe
It was Indian buffet, and I had lots of curry and samosas. I really like their veggie curry best actually.
@Torean sounds like fun 💖 where would you take me and kiara if we could all meet up??
Well I've been doing 🤔🤔 absolutely nothing😁
Hmm, there's a nice cafe close to some fountains and stuff. ❤️ That could be a good start. After that, this super beautiful restaurant up in the city, and maybe see the lake. After that, road trip! 😁. But actually... Where else sounds the best to you?
@Torean road trip!!!!!!!! Woohoo! And beach😁
Yes, beach! 😁😁 I absolutely love going to the beach. I uh.. just wish there was one where I am. That just means a longer funner road trip though
Torean would be driving, though. Lol
Lol, what's wrong with that? Like the good driver that I am, I get in the left lane and speed. There's ligitimacy to that too. It keeps things moving, and going too slow actually causes more accidents. Plus, I don't speed by enough to realistically get in trouble or make people uncomfy
So you’re one of THOSE people. ;)
You'd be thanking me when we have extra time. 😜 Also, THOSE people barely exist in the state I live in. People drive like absolute morons here. Driving in Louisiana was like night and day; drivers are soooo much better there.
You’re singing that one song…
“I CAN’T DRIVE…. 55!!!!!!!” XD
Speaking of songs, my playlist is now at about 5,400 songs. 😁 Plenty of music for our trip.
@Torean yaaay! My xmas playlist is 3 hours and something long, we can listen to that to😁
Not all Xmas songs right? 😅 I have maybe 1 Christmas song on my entire playlist.
Who has that many songs??!? Hehe
Me apparently. 😂 I want at least 10,000 before it's over. Problem is, I gotta clean out the lesser ones that aren't really cool enough to be on my list.
Can I add some? Hehe
Lol, you can add to yours. 😜 But I'll take suggestions. Actually, I've added at least a few from what youve introduced me to.
Hey!!! I wanna help get you to 10,000 lol
Lol, that sounds suspiciously like putting quantity first. (Though I could definitely choose worse people to pull songs from) 😂 I'm on a low right now though anyway. I burned out of listening through new things, and I've been on a break for four weeks now. It's just... There's too much music out there that isn't that good.
Random song #1:
Hot Wings (I Wanna Party), from Rio
You get RANDOM songs now hehe
Lol, sounds fun. I haven't actually seen Rio as of yet.
The song doesn't pass. 😜 The music is actually decent, especially within the movie is imagine, but I'm not a fan of his vocals, especially when he put on the heavy autotune.
I don’t remember the auto tune part…
Ok, try Monster by Walking on Cars :)
Hmm, pretty good actually. 😊
It passes! On the fence about adding it, but I think I will. It just oddly coincides with some news that I got. Anyway, lyrics are just vague enough to be effective. Everything sounds pretty good. It's got that distinct feeling like the producer cleaned up the rawness too much in hopes for a hit, but that isn't actually a critique of the song or the band.
Good find, thanks for sharing it!
How does it coincide?
Sound of Silence, by Disturbed.
Something I'm supporting someone through. They got reminded of a bad person in their life.
As for that one, it passes, but I don't really care to have it on my list. It's not that it's a bad cover by any means. I actually saw them in concert and while they were playing that song, someone in the crowd passed out and had to get taken out in an ambulance. (It was an outdoor show in the summer heat). Anyway, I mostly like their older stuff. Back when they were known for being weird and dark.
Awww
Finish Line, by Skillet.
No one does empowering songs like that quite like Skillet. It's good, but I like Legendary and Victorious on that album even more.
Too weird… I just had a Skillet song in my head and didn’t know what it was… Until you said Legendary. O.O
Phenomenon, by TFK.
Heheh, already acquainted myself with that one. Honestly a really cool sounding song all around.
Who Says, by Joshua Micah.
I wish that it had that jazzy sound towards the end throughout the whole thing. Then, the part at the end could sound even more powerful with some electric guitar added in. Maybe they could have some funky bass added throughout too.. kinda give it one of those little repetitive bass rhythms that'll make you laugh if you concentrate on just that part. It would work really well with the noises added in. I'm ready to remix this one apparently. 😂
I haven’t heard it in so long, I can’t picture that part lol
Lol, you should re-listen. See if you can see what I'm saying. 😁
Eh too lazy and sleepy hehe
Try Diggy Diggy Hole hehe
Lol, nice! I'm feeling the dwarf rock. 😂
It’s a dorky song, but it’s somehow also fire??? Like, it’s really well made.
That's very true. I have a solid chunk of things on my list like that. 😁 Not every good song has to be serious
Whatever it Takes, Imagine Dragons 🐉
😂 ugh... fine, but only cuz I ❤️ you.
....aaaand, couldn't stand it, just like I thought. 😜 I associate their music with retail stores and struggling Millennial parents pretending to be happy. 😂
Then again... I'll put some respect on their name for the lyrics. Sometimes their lyrics are at least good.
D’awww hehe
Whyyyy are we hating on Imagine Dragons???? XD I love their stuff. Lollll
Cupid Shuffle. Hehe
Lol, I just... Really, really don't like them. They're like my 3rd least favorite popular band. 😅
On the other hand, I'll admit that Cupid Shuffle is a bit of a guilty pleasure. 😁
CAUSE THIS IS THRILLER!!! Thriller night…
I love Michael Jackson in general. 😁 One of my absolute favorite artists. My favorite by him is "They Don't Care About Us" or "Wanna Be Starting Somethin'"
Dunno either of those songs lol
Safety Dance ;)
Aww, not gonna check out any from me? 😜
That one... I dunno. It was enjoyable. The music video was really enjoyable too.
Remind me when I actually have time XD
It’s a goofy song but it’s cute, and the music video is RIDICULOUS XD
Jukebox Hero???
Heh, that one was pretty fun too.
And I'm reminding you, you totally have time. 😁
Uhhhh not rn i dont XD
Trashin’ the Camp from Tarzan. ;)
Lol, I forgot what that movie even looked like.
And you totally had time then, and do now too! 😜
….
You right, you right. :P
The first one had too much “boom-boom” in the background and like no actual music. (From what little I listened to.) The other one sounds eh. I like Beat It and Thriller.
Oh I forgot a song lol. The Look, Roxette.
"From what you listened to?" Psh, you made me listen to Imagine Dragons. 😜
But this new song is better. It was somewhere back in my mind because I've definitely heard it. The only thing that wigs me out is that a guitar part sounds a lot like one from "Real Men Don't Kill Coyotes" by Red Hot Chili Peppers. (Also a good song)
I’m lazy. XD
I Gotta Feeling ;)
😜
Ok, not a fan of that one... But I've listened to their stuff. I'm not a fan of most of it. They definitely aren't the worst.
