Damn!!! Where in the Caflumada you been!?! Part II
At the elemental level, caflumada is just chaos and cuss words.
“So, how is there a bright side of bullshyt?” *in the
reader’s voice* “It stinks on all sides!!!” #PU
Yes, crap does stink (on all sides). However, my life’s crap does has had a
redeeming result. Muddling through and
out of the b.s. can either makes you either sicker or stronger, and I choose
strength!
In the downtime, that these hackers -- *under the
breathe mubble* “m****f’****s!”--
have so graciously provided me (twice), I have:
-
Learned
enough Photoshop and video editing software to create visuals, which might look like crap to the
professional eye *A
Malachi “Meh”*. The visuals that had me concerned at
first, but then I thought “damn the
blog’s title is a nice way to say chaos” [#soeffeit]. Maybe I shouldn’t get caught up on trying to
make everything look A-1 at this juncture?
Why further slow the process?
-
Set up
the information security and business systems that allow me to securely
share my information and have and will continue to allow me to scale up when
necessary.
-
Gave me a
competitor. I thrive in battle!! #youdoneeffedupnow
Therefore, the Bright Side of Flum is that it is can be
the catalyst for development and growth.
Read More Soon: WTF!?! They hackin’ yo ish? Damn, what they do? In The Flum Overcome.
Where in the flum is Caflumada going?
Caflumada is a
great departure from when I first mentally toyed with the idea of starting a
blog. I had just moved away from my
hometown to Memphis, TN, and I fantasized about possibly gallivanting around
town from soiree to swahray like I was the “Black Sex in City,” giving me loads
to share. However, graduate school and “the way my bank account is set up”, it
has been more like Video Streaming in the House.
Caflumada!

* Finishing final touches on this GIF. You're gonna laugh. Should be up midday
My intentions
for this blog are fairly open-ended, and I am amicable to seeing what develops
[#GIWYFI]. However, it is framed as a
conversation. A conversation I will
begin, but not necessarily conclude, each week, but that I hope you continue,
sometimes in dialog, other times maybe later as just a thought. I may not yet have the S.M.A.R.T. goals for
success fully laid out on this project, but if I can 1) lend my perspective to
social conversation, 2) provide practical information of real use, 3) learn something
new or gain a new perspective from you, and/or 4) make you laugh through some flum
than that’s success!
Caflumada is
the organized, collective experiences and thoughts from one woman in the middle
of it a lot (ex: age [hopefully],
development, career, mid-range technology adopter, etc…) who views the world
from the lens of the black, African-American experience and recognizes that
this experience has commonalities with the struggles of many in the world,
while also having its own unique characteristics. But let’s not get heavy just yet.
I have been
life-seasoned. And damn, I’m just saucy
enough to be trying on my “too old to GAF” senior benefit ala Sophia Petrillo,
letting the world have it in my Ain’t that a B! posts. My Going Gray posts contend with the
journey of this “girl”, who is golden, exactly where I currently find myself,
heading towards THE CHANGE and beyond
as well as through all the other changes life provides (hopefully with Blanche’s confident, well-aged sexy, but I’m prolly
wind up being more Rose #kind #airheaded, sometimes). Letters
to my Younger Self will be a collection of post, which could also be titled
“if I knew then what I know now?”. Finally, the Flum Free Favs posts give props where they are due and shares these
outstanding nonprofits, businesses, individuals and anything else deemed to be
#3F worthy with you.
Coming Soon: The Pontificatin’
(‘n ish) Menu. Cause like all folks from the Town, I be
pontificating! #TownBiz
