The journey of 1000 thoughts
by Kandi on Mar.19, 2012, under Kandi
begins with a single one. Let’s not be pretentious Kandice…its just me. 
Ok so I decided to start back blogging, more so journaling so that i could document this journey that I am on. Everyday there is a new discovery. I am writing as honestly as possible with the thought that I am going to be the only one reading this. Something tells me that its not true but I am going to go on that assumption anyway. Oprah Winfrey and Gary Zukav have changed my life. They have changed my thinking and my path in the Earth school. I am now choosing my thoughts, thinking about my intentions and making better choices. Of course, every choice that I make is not the right one but it is all about learning the lessons. I had an epiphany this morning about someone that has been part of my life for some time now. I was reading the heart of the soul last night and there is an exercise in there that asks why are you with who you are with. Right now I’m single so I’m not “with” him but I wanted to know why I was with him when I was. Was it because I felt that if I were with him I would somehow be validated? The answer was yes. That helped me realize how going back to that wouldnt help me in any way. So that makes the “temptation” i was starting to feel subside. I still love him, I think. Maybe I still feel the thing that I thought was love that really isnt. I am beginning to know REAL love and what we had wasnt that at all. It was dysfunctional, painful and unproductive. The future with him will be…I dont know but I do know it wont be what it was. That ship has sailed, docked and I got off.
Current state of affairs
by Kandi on Jan.26, 2012, under Kandi
I’m sick. Maybe a better more accurate term is ill. Not like a dope rapper but unwell. Nobody knows. I will tell them, when its necessary, just not today. Today I’m ok. I’m tired but ok. Maybe I should eat. The oatmeal and water I had this morning wasnt really enough. I live in a constant state of dehydration. Lips require moisture at this moment. No matter how much water I drink, cant seem to quench this thirst. Blah blah blah is how I feel today. Maybe I have a SAD. A not so happy mood AND a seasonal affective disorder. Chicago has done this to me. I havent seen the sun in days that cant be good for the mental. This rambling that I do is only a microscopic portion of the shit that runs through my brain on a daily, hell hourly basis. It aint easy being me, but I make it look like it is.
Its been a long time

*harlem shake* I shouldnt have left you…without a dope blog to hmmm got nothing that rhymes here. Anywho what up people, I know its been a while since I blogged. Let me explain…you know I love you right? I…I just was spending time with this other….well that’s not important. LOL Ok this blog is going to sound like a kid with ADHD and their ritalin supply ran out but you will understand it in the end, for now I’m just going to type and get all this stuff out. *deep breath*
Ok where to start….so I decided to stop blogging here because I wanted to focus on my NASCAR blog, I need to focus on a central thing and this one as you can see is pretty all over the place. So this morning I had some things clogging my brain and I decided instead of spewing them all over Twitter and FB I would blog it out. I had initially determined that making this a “personal” blog was a bad idea because bad people could use it for their own gain, but today I dont really know where I misplaced the fucks I have to give about that. So personal it shall be. I mean why should i set up ANOTHER blog, to talk about personal shit when I just paid the domain bill on this mothafucka? Shit, I came over here to talk about something and now I cant remember. I really need to stop drinking Coke in the morning on an empty stomach. Damn I’m hungry. I swear I’m not crazy…I’m just typing. *think think* Just put me in the closet! No seriously I’m tryin to remember what I came over here to opine about. I truly cant remember, this is sad. I’ll be back when I remember. 
Occupy Movement’s Day of Action
by Kandi on Nov.17, 2011, under Uncategorized
All across the nation the “Occupy” movement members are rallying to protest and disrupt business as usual. I applaud the effort that these people have but I dont know that they are completely focused. I am not sure exactly what their demands are and what they want the 1% to do. What change do they expect to enact with these protests? Is there a leader? I have questions, as most people do and very few consistent answers. I know who they are mad at and why, but now what? I guess we will see in the days, weeks and months to come.
Kyle Busch suspended from racing this weekend
by Kandi on Nov.05, 2011, under Sports
If you are a fan of extrarandomblog you already know that stories here can range from entertainment to sports to politics, well today is no different. My one sports love is NASCAR, I am a long suffering Dale Jr. fan and I HATE Kyle Busch. Probably because he wins. LOL Anyway let me get to the story. Kyle purposely wrecked Ron Hornaday in the truck race last night and Mike Helton made the executive decision to park him for the rest of the weekend. They call him Wild thing and you can see why…. You can clearly hear his spotter telling him to calm down as the caution comes out but he was hearing none of that! Kevin Harvick went on to win the race. (I dont like him either…lol) Check out the video below.
Andy Rooney dead at 92
by Kandi on Nov.05, 2011, under News
Just weeks after officially retiring from his weekly spot as the closer of CBS’s 60 minutes, Andy Rooney has signed off for the last time. Rooney passed away Friday night in a NY hospital after complications from a minor surgery. He was in the news business for over 60 year and 30 of those were spent giving his final commentary on 60 minutes. He was funny, controversial at time but always honest. As we push forward in a world of talking points, 24 hour news cycles and real journalists and writers replaced with ratings grabbing commentators, Andy will truly be missed. One of the last few legends left that truly understood the importance of news delivery. Rest in Peace Andy Rooney
Texas Judge issues statement on beating video
by Kandi on Nov.04, 2011, under News
In a lengthy 3 page statement issued by his attorney, Judge William Adams explains the possible motivation behind his daughter’s release of the 7 yr old beating video. Watching Hillary Adams and her mother on the Today Show, I had a feeling that there was some deeper truth beneath the surface. Her answers didnt make alot of sense. It was not until the mother said she was fighting for custody of her younger daughter that it all started to come together. In his statement he says that his daughter dropped out of college a few credits shy of graduation. He informed her if she did not finish he would cut her off financially and he took her Mercedes Benz away….interesting. Read the full statement below.
DirectTV and Fox come to terms
by Kandi on Nov.03, 2011, under Entertainment, News
In an effort to not commit a cardinal sin during football season and lose all of their subscribers, DirectTV and Fox have agreed to continue to play nice.
The joint statement read: “Fox Networks and DirecTV have reached an agreement for DirecTV to continue carrying all Fox Networks. We both know the past 10 days have been challenging, but we’re pleased that both sides could eventually come together to ensure our viewers continue to enjoy Fox programming.”
Had a deal not been struck some 19 million subscribers would have been without the Fox Family brand of channels on their satellite package. Comcast, Dish Network and the struggling AT&T Uverse were salivating at the thought of all of those new customers. But alas, corporate greed won out and the two parties lowered their profit margins enough to see eye to eye. Aint capitalism great? *insert goofy stockholder smile here*
