Changing of the Guards

I've been meaning to do this blog for a minute.  As we all get older, we are witness to an inevitable changing of the guards in the entertainment industry.  Before out eyes, all of our legends, & archetypes of greatness, are being replaced by younger, fresher stars.
For example...
This is the comparison that sparked this idea:

Paula Patton is the NEW:
 Halle Berry
Derek Luke is the NEW:
 Denzel Washington
Jude Law is the NEW:
Cary Grant
ETC...
If you think of some more, do share!

Slippin on my pimpin, slacking on my...

My vacation was beautiful!  I didn't even blog about it.  Half way into August, haven't shared a single thought or emotion.  Honestly I came back from vacay Aug. 1 and went right back to work the next day and have been getting back into the groove of that since.  I had a slight office romance, it was fun!  It's nice to have someone to look for each day, who is looking for you, so that you can be silly, and flirty and whatnot, but he's only here for the summer, alas.  And another storyline in my life is going to be coming full circle come Friday.  I'm just in a happy place.  Remember that blog about feeling "overlooked and as if I am of no interest to anyone,"  I was just in a bad place at the time, emotionally.  Revived from my trip,  I feel like myself once again.  No more pity parties over here!  So I have some major things to accomplish, I still feel as if I need a mentor to help me, but I am discovering that to achieve certain personal goals, you have to be your own coach.  I am happy though, I can honestly say that, and that is an achievement!!!
