It’s the third day since I last updated [on the 24th]. According to the unwritten – well, they’re written somewhere on the blog, but they’re not written on stone … obviously – rules of Verastically Livin,’ I’m due for an update today. Problem is, I’m not quite sure what to blog about.
Perhaps, this qualifies as one of those random posts. Yeah, you know the ones where you start off believing you have nothing to blog about, and then you begin to write about how you have nothing to blog about, only to end up with an entire post about how and why you don’t have what to blog about — but will go ahead and mention a few random thoughts anyway. Yeah, this is one of those.
On that note…
- I bought a water bottle from Wal-Mart that takes 2.2 L of water [which is equal to 8 glasses of water]. We are recommended to drink 8 glasses of water per day, so I figured I’d give it a try. Sooo not easy! Been walking around feeling like water-filled balloons are dancing around in my belly. I’m pretty sure that if you poke my belly with a pin, you’ll be able to host a pool party.
- Have you ever felt like so many things are just going on at the same time? Ever knelt down to pray and not even known what to pray for or how to pray for it? Ever wished you could confront God face-to-face and ask Him some personal questions, but then, as quickly as that wish came to you, a thought popped up in the back of your mind, and you say to yourself [or maybe out loud], “God forbid! I don’t want to confront Him. I’ll die the day I see His face?” No?? Just me then. Okay.
- “Because He lives, I can face tomorrow/ Because He lives, all fear is gone/ For I know .. oh.. oh.. oh.. He holds my future/ And life is worth living just because He lives…” It’d be a lot easier for me to embrace the future if I know what it has in store for me. I sing that song to make myself feel better. And no, I am neither depressed nor contemplating suicide, thank you very much. My confusingly identical twins still have to be invented and born. Am I looking forward to that or what???
- Speaking of the invention of children, I look forward to that. The process of coming up with different ways and styles that are most suitable for the invention of said children has to be pretty darn interesting. [Case in point: I heard that when the woman stays upside down immediately after the act of invention, it better increases the chances of a successful invention]. If you have no idea what I’m talking about, move on. You’ll know soon enough.
- Switching to yet another random topic: yesterday on Verastically Speakin’ Talk Radio was off the chains…and I’m not just saying that because I’m the host. Oh, what the heck? That is why I’m saying it. But it really was off the chains. This time, I’m serious. Topic was Be Lucrative Or Die Trying. Click HERE to listen. Okechukwu Ofili and Iceberg Slim co-hosted. At the end, we played Iceberg’s new song, “Nigerian Girls” featuring Sauce Kid. Good stuff.
- Back to this future thing … I approach it with some trepidation. I need things to be stable. If you were to ask God what Vera is thinking of Him, He’ll say, “She thinks I’m the unstable one, but has she looked at herself lately??? I’m the Unchangeable Changer!”
- Speaking of that name, “Unchangeable Changer” … for the longest time, I couldn’t make sense of it. I thought it was another ludicrous name/phrase Nigerians had come up with. You know how we are. I get it now. He’s the God who changes things, but He never changes. Oooohh. Cool beans!!! God is such a cool Man!! [Sorry, I can be slow some times.]
- Next week Saturday, we’ll be asking [on Verastically Speakin’ Talk Radio] ‘Who Is A Submissive Wife???’ I’m working on getting a second co-host. In the meantime in between time – gosh, I love saying that – why don’t you do help your sister out again? See the poll on the top right sidebar? Yeap, that one. Tell me what you think. When you’re done, click HERE to set up you reminder for the show. It’s going to be the same time on Saturday, Oct 3rd at 10am U.S EST/3pm GMT. E-mail radio@verastic.com for comments/questions/suggestions.
- Blogger really needs to come up with a way to attach music to a post. They want me to do podcasts and all that ish? Seriously??? I just want to attach an mp3 file! Bear with me. Enjoy this video below. It’s not an actual video. It’s Iceberg Slim’s song. It’s the only one I could find on YouTube. Wasn’t my favorite choice [seeing as Sauce Kid was spelled as Sauce Ki …right there in the first two seconds of the video. Driving me nuts, I tell you.], but I had no other option. Does anyone know an easier way to attach songs? I think WordPress does a better job at this. Come on, Blogger… you’re better than this!
… And I thought I had nothing to blog about!JJJ
Oh Vera!
Tot u had nufn to blog abt. Neways,my first time here.

Wow @ God forbid! I don't want to confront Him. I'll die the day I see His face?"
If you can't question God here on earth, when will u have time to question him? In heaven abi? U want to tell me that when ur in heaven, that's when u'll find time to question God? U better make sure ur first on the line, because there'll be a whole lot of ppl waitin in line before u.
feeling same as numero deux, but i know he'll come through at the right time/
u sure had plenty to talk about. 8 gallons of water is not easy o.
Sweet post about not having much to talk about! Want to holla at the man upstairs and ask him a few questions?, read the book of Job with fresh eyes and mindset… it kind of changed my perspective 🙂
