Terminology - Overcracked brain and too many late nights


I hate it when Dumpster call me a Bitty, what the heck is bitty? What kind of species talk like Grumpster?
I kept saying, "stop calling me a bitty!!!!???". What the heck is bitty?

After many frustration attempts to stop this dude who has no respect for his bitty boss, I googled "Bitty". In the Urban Dictionary it says a mix between breast and titty. LOL! What horrible culture have we come to that you call your boss that? But as I scroll down, I think this is what Grumpster meant, bitty - hot girl ! Ah! I see, he has tonnes of respect for me, above and beyond my leadership skills - he deserves a raise - In monopoly money.

If you were to read his blog, he's always having crashes on yellow bitty. And now, I know, I am confident that this dudets has a crash on his Boss, the itsy bitsy bitty chief or the latinos call Jiefa! Ha. Except I don't wear yellow.

So, since we are on this urbanites lingo, here are a few more for ya'll.

- A bag of Joe - something very useful. "WOW, that new espresso machine is a bag of joe".

- A benny - $1oo bill. "sorry, I don't accept a benny". or it could mean you are out of place, "you are a benny to ask for a bevy at the cafe."

and last one,

- A bevy - an alcoholic drink, or the result of consuming it. " lets go and ask the barista if he could bevied up our latte?"

Okay dudets and dudetts, this bitty is smashed this night. Need to hit the sack.

Are you anyone's favorite person?


Wow....I've taken a break from blogging. So many things, so little time and I was a sick puppy too. My hands were to weak to press the keyboard. Ha! Drama Queen.

Anyways, its Saturday and still is my favorite day especially when I had a piece of lemon square. Perfect treat for the summer. Lemon square, lemonade and a yellow bikini.

Okay, all jokes aside. I watched this short film call "Are you the favorite person of anybody"? Its only 4 minutes long but so thought provoking. I have to stop and asked myself if I am anyone's favorite person? It is a scary question. It raised the hairs on my arms.

I started asking customers who came into the cafe the same question and I have to say, it was quite something to watch their expressions. Even for them, they have to stop and think about it. Many are lucky to have their partners think the world of them. A few openly tell me they are not anyone's favorite person. Some say Maybe and a rare few quickly name all the people who treated them as favorite. Some even named their pets!

All in all, I have to agree with Mother Theresa when she says "There is more hunger for love and appreciation in this world than for bread".

So when a close friend's cousin committed suicide. I felt helpless and at a loss. I wish he had someone to talk to. I wish he felt safe. Wish he felt self-love and love of someone.
I wish for so many things in this instance.

Hence, if you have a person who is your favorite person, go tell them. And I am very lucky.

But self love is the best love of all. May we all feel confident of who we are. Inside out.
