For the Love of Earth – Day 4

Why do I love Bae? Let me count the ways…

Well, I’ve been doing that this week already, haven’t I?

And today’s post is no different.

Today, I want to talk briefly about being eclectic, about being zany, and about NOT CARING what anyone thinks about said eclectic and zany behaviors.

One of the things I love about Earth the most is her eclectic style. She has a way of putting together a ‘fit, finding an answer to a solution, and saying off-the-wall things that most people wouldn’t think to do or say.

In December 2011, a lot of that zaniness and eclectic style presented itself. It was a special month–not only was it Christmas, but also it was my bae’s birthday, and we wanted to throw a party. I let Bae pick the theme for the party.

When she said hip hop, I wasn’t too surprised. I knew she dug ol’ school hip hop, and her bro can kill the wheels of steel as DJ. There wasn’t a drop of eclectic… or zany in that response.

But ahhh, with the Bae, there is always an M. Night Shyamalan “twist.”

And here it was… hip hop… to the GRAVE. People had to, basically, be hip hop zombies. LOL

Needless to say, that party was hot to death (pun intended).

Before the party, Bae and I went and purchased her a b’day gift and somehow I ended up with a gift, too.

It wasn’t something like new shoes, new ‘fits, a cruise. It was a tiger. For her. A dragon for me.

I spend a lot of time shaking my head, giggling, and laughing when I’m with Earth because she always has the twist that just keeps me intrigued. It doesn’t hurt that her eclectic and zany style represents itself in her ability to be silly (because Lord knows I is a silly one!).

I mean, we all know how much women try to look good all the time on the grid, but any woman who would play Rudolph to my Donner can’t be all bad.
