I'm telling you, she gets the most ridiculous guys hitting on her.
I wish I could post their pictures without getting in trouble. One guy has pictures of himself working out on his profile, with captions about something to do with his "Bicips." ("I don't know if you heard me counting, but I did over 1,000....").
Anyway, her latest message is as follows:

Take Care Gorgeous...
Rell...
Let me just say that his default picture is him, probably taken from a webcam whilst he's composing such absurdities, and, of course, enjoying a Swisher Sweet cigar. Seriously.
I am so jealous!!! Why doesn't anyone cool want ME to be their star/franchise player? DAMN IT!!!!!
That's all. Oh, and I have three new pics from my shoot last week. Feedback appreciated!
First one was taken by Scott Miron. Hair and Makeup by Nicole Fae. Dress by BCBG.
The next two are David Birdsong Photography. I did my own hair and makeup. Chemise by Tia Lyn Lingerie.
Have a great week! Watch out for fruitloops online!
Since I've been on Twitter (follow me!), it has been my goal to get Shaq to respond to me.
Well, finally, it happened!
He randomly was tweeting, and said something about shooting, passing, and slamming, which, to true Shaq fans, of course is easily recognizable as lyrics to one of his songs.
So, I tweeted back, and said "Aren't those your song lyrics? =P"
To which he responded "Dam yur smart."
YAY! Finally!
Now I just gotta get him to follow me and respond frequently. Baby steps!
Here are some screen captures of my moment in the sun.
The first one is his screen, where you can see it low on his posts (I couldn't capture until I got to school, because I just switched from PC to Mac at home, and don't know how to do it yet).
Next, we have the page of my replies. It's right there at the bottom!
Finally, I put the two screenshots together to make one glorious image, which looks like it is hard to read on Blogger. Brutal.
Ok... On to more NBA lovefest time.
A while back, I said that I have a crush on Dwight Howard. He's big & silly, so that's pretty much all I need - haha.
Anyway, seeing this TOTALLY deepened my crush! Lawd!
Oh, and speaking of videos, there are some new DbTVs on my YouTube Channel, or, if that is blocked, on my Vimeo Channel.
On March 6th, 1972, Shaquille Rashuan O'Neal was born.
He would grow to become my absolute favorite celebrity.
So, on his birthday, I thought I'd take the time to explain why.
Now, first of all, despite the fact that visually, I do tend to prefer large, extremely tall black men, I feel the need to say again that I am not sexually attracted to Shaq.
This is something that OFTEN gets confused.
If he tried to take me home, I would cry.
I do, sometimes, think he looks good, but I would never do anything with him other than platonic things.
That being said, here is why I like him.
I've always loved big men. My dad is pretty big, although by my standards now, I would consider him kinda short (6'2"). As a child, I had a huge crush on Arnold Schwarzenegger (because of the film classic "Twins."). So yeah, the idea of a big, gentle giant has always been something I've liked.
Now, more personally to Shaq. First of all, he does many amazing things for kids and charity. Yes, this is easier to do when you have basically unlimited funding, but he goes above and beyond just that, and truly seems to enjoy it. He's been known to go out on Christmas and give away 500 presents to kids going door-to-door. He has Shaq-a-Claus, Shaqsgiving, and does work for the Boys & Girls club, just sent tons (literally) of peanut butter to Africa... The list goes on and on (just like I do, when you get me talking about something that I'm passionate about. Shaq is one of those topics - I just think he's incredible - obviously).
In addition to his awesome humanitarianism, he has an incredible and insane personality.
If you know me, you know that I am always laughing and smiling. I cherish absurdity, and embrace it whenever I can. Shaq is the same. He doesn't take life or himself too seriously. He seems to fully understand the idea of living each day to the fullest and enjoying every minute of it.
Here are a few examples of such silliness.
First up (I'm just going through my favorite videos on YouTube) is Shaq's most recent ESPN commercial. I know that you can make the argument that it is a commercial, and as such, has a script and may not be a true example of his personality. Well, here's my counter-argument. Have you seen Steel or Kazaam? As much as I love him, and as much as I love watching those movies just because Shaq's goof ass makes me smile, he is a terrible actor. He can only pull of roles when he's playing himself. This commercial is one of them. (Ok, he might be acting a little more serious than he normally seems to be!).
Here he is, showing his alma mater pride and ridiculousness (you have to sit through a little boring stuff about THEE Ohio State University first)...
Again, I could go on... If anyone personally wants me to share more, let me know, and I can point you in the right direction of some Shaqtastic videos and other reference materials.
Moving on.... My new obsession: Twitter.
I signed up (follow me!) because someone was pretending he was Shaq and posting some very Shaq-esque tweets. Shaq responded by signing up himself, and is now the King of Twitteronia.
Let me just tell you that following Shaq has been completely hilarious, and it is fantastic, because when I least expect it, I get a silly ass text from Shaq.
Those of you who know me also know that I love the lolcats.
The creator takes Shaq's tweets and combines them with pictures of Shaq for some serious hilarity.
One thing Shaq has been doing lately is telling his "Twitterean brothers and sisters" where he currently is located, and giving them a time limit to come and touch him, mention the tweet, and get free tickets to his game.
The other day, apparently someone couldn't find his big ass. So here's his tweet:
(Note: For the horizontal ones, some get cut off... Click on the picture to see the whole thing. =))
The rest of these are just random faves of mine... Either chosen because I love the picture, or I think the quote is funny. I will comment when I have more to say than that!
Lawd. Really Shaq? Britney? Haha.
He tweeted that at like 5am CST. =P
One of the features of Twitter is Twitpic. Citizens of Twitteronia can upload pictures and attach them to tweets. This was one of his first photo tweets. He has since posted pictures of his hand, his perspective of Walmart at 4am, pictures of him sleeping, Steve Nash... All kinds of hilarious and ridiculous stuff. I love it. =)
I want to know how to pronounce "Schwwwwwww!" He tweets it a lot!
It seriously took me a minute to figure out what the hell he was talking about with that one.
I only posted that one so I could link to this! You had to see that coming!
He followed that up with saying that he meant cute like a little boy, haha.
Hell yeaaaaaa indeed!
And he did so well!
That go kart goes 60mph!
"Schwwww" again?!
Thought that this one was especially relevant today.
SO WISE!!! I couldn't agree more!
I ADORE that one. My favorite tweet of all time. "Ibadablaa, Jigamagla, bockeraaa?"
Heehee...
"Schwwwwwwww!"
I could never hold a grudge against someone who gave in to a cheeseburger craving!
"Ibadablaaa, Jigamadla, bockeraaa?"
Ok, I think I've more than proven my point. =P
Happy birthday, Shaq. Love you!
P.S. It is my goal to get him to respond to one of my tweets! I will keep you posted!
I am a teacher... And a model. I'd like to think that I am a model teacher, but that might be a stretch. It's an interesting combination, though. I'll tell you that much!
