MR Rondo!

It is becoming clear to me that the reason for my “writer’s block” these past few weeks has NOT
been due to a lack of material as I erroneously thought. In fact, quite the opposite: TOO MUCH!
The question is…what parts of the material to share (ALL!?...certainly not! …)
Everyone claims they want full disclosure, but most can’t really handle it.
Or are you my readers the select few that can?

And so, the challenge has been in channelling my energies into cohesively conveying to you
(select parts of) current trends in Miss Rondo’s life experiences (so many that they are) …
The result, today’s post. Full disclosure on the other hand is still a work in progress…

So yesterday, I got a BBM message from …wait for itMr Rondo himself!
Now, don’t forget…memory serves us to rmbr that the Mr & Miss Rondo unit no longer exists.
And in fact has not existed for a number of years now  
(longer than the relationship lasted actually). The separation, though painful at the time
was amicable… (at least on Miss Rondo’s part…some things are just not meant to be) …
and both parties have since moved on with their lives.
But today is NOT for that story (I keep posting you, I know…sorry!).

Anyway...Currently, my BBM status message reads “Miss Rondo” …
and he commented on it saying… (and I quote)
“…u and I (meaning he and myself) need to talk about the name Rondo.
U can’t be using it anyhow o. There’s a premium on it now!...”

I laughed of course (both in the text and out loud) …it was funny!
First…Rondo was MY creation. The fact that our temporary association enabled him to
get in on the picture does NOT entitle him to any of the accolades that stem therefrom.
This is NOT biff, simply fact!... I mean, most people who refer to Miss Rondo
aren’t even aware that there ever was a Mr…  Not that it’s their fault…
the title is MISS Rondo after all…which is precisely the point MISS
Number 2: He hadn’t even read the blog as at the time he sent the message…
So what was he complaining about really?
That the term “Rondo” was something we shared exclusively?
and thus not to be used after the demise of our relationship?

Which brings me to the crux of today’s matter…

“In their defense”: a cover for PRIDE and SHAME

so apparently, even bloggers encounter writer's block...
any form of cohesive writing would i suppose...
i'm just surprised i guess,
considering that my posts are supposed to be about "miss rondo's" life and times
is it not just to relay them to you her ardent readers...
what's so difficult about that...

i guess i'm finding out...

and so...today's post is something i published a couple of years ago...

still about "miss rondo"... (though then the alter ego was still locked away in the proverbial closet)
its intriguing to me tho, how the essence of her personality hasn't changed over the years

so you should still enjoy this post as you would all others more recent
i certainly enjoy how i looked then (not so much fat!)

Mr Bizzard!

If you're reading this blog for the first time, you REALLY should go back a few posts (at least)...
U'll be glad u did, I promise πŸ˜‰

If you're already a frequent flier on this airline... Welcome...its good to you have you back on board...
Without you...Miss Rondo would simply be  the random musings of a Melancholic Sanguine...
(or is it San-Mel now...i forget...whatever!...you catch the drift)...
Without knowing you (the readers) are out there,

This blog wouldn't be worth as much as the url its written at
(which incidentally cost nothing πŸ˜œ )

Anyway...enough of all that...(i'm beginning to spend as many words expressing my gratitude
as i used to my contrition when i was so infrequent with my uploads)...
Suffice to say...i think we've covered all that adequately well...
Wouldn't you agree..?
Good...let's move on shall we...

Meanwhile, for the first time since i started this blog,
I will not be uploading a photo of myself!
Shocking i know!
Thankfully my #CommonSense  far outweighs my vanity,
And it therefore occurred to me that paired beside today's upload,
my picture would seem like the before shot of a makeup session!
So...i'll be posting my photo when there's no daunting competition,
Thank you very much!

In the same vein, we'll keep last post's #ConstantReplay video
(Its not like you guys ever watch them anyway! 😜 )


Today's post!...is going to be very different...
I'm uploading Miss Rondo's 1st personal video!

20 FACTs about MISS RONDO: part two

Before i roll out the gist of today's post (which essentially is a continuation of my last one)...
I would like to take out a few words to appreciate you guys...my reading audience...

Its an awesome feeling when you see me in person and say "hi Ms.Rondo"
(even when you don't pronounce RONDO properly! I may have to put up a post to educate y'all on the correct pronunciation of that word b.t.w... ) or refer to a phrase from previous posts, or just simply laugh because you put up a funny comment after reading the post(s)...

I especially love those of you who refer to "her" in the 3RD person singular (like she's not me)...
she IS an alter ego after all  πŸ˜‰ ...
But seriously...thank you so much guys!...i hope you derive as much pleasure from reading as i do enjoyment from writing...

Most especially though...i would like to publicly acknowledge the "inspirator" of the 20 FACTS about Miss Rondo series...a blogger herself; family; and dare i say...friend...Mz Oluwadamilola Omotunde of ...www.modeboladamilola.blogspot.com...fame...thank you "Dami agba"...
now... "Stella got her groove back"!

20 FACTs about MISS RONDO

Good morning GOOD PEOPLE

So..i was awoken today with a need to get something done
Something pending from my (ever-growing) to -do list
And this came to mind...
Feeding my long-starved alter ego...MISS RONDO...which to you may translate to updating my blog

I'll dispense with my usual apologies about my inconsistency in posting,
Needless to say...i am working on it (really, i am)
But that is a story for another day...

Today (as always)... we are focusing on the all important subject of ME!
Specifically though...20 FACTs about MISS RONDO...
Now i know wot u're thinking...How is knowing more about ME beneficial to you
Well...here are a few starters..

a. Knowing more about ANYTHING is always beneficial...knowledge in general is...
b. Knowing more about me specifically would help in your followership of this blog...after all, if you're already following the blog, it means you have some interest in the Miss Rondo personality... reading this particular post can only further help in that career path :D ... and...
c. In understanding the persona that is Miss Rondo...u may yourself identify some personal traits (good or bad) that you previously did not notice; thereby enhancing your self awareness...

although let's be honest here...i'm doing this majorly for ME...
you are secondary in my thoughts as i write this post...

So...back to the subject @ hand...20 FACTs about Miss Rondo...
we'll start with the obvious...and progressively move on to the not-so-obvious...

1. Miss Rondo is an individual with an intelligence level above the average world population...
now...this first fact may seem particularly arrogant, but i assure you...it is not...it it simply what it is...a fact... And while you may initially reject the idea, i 'enjoin' you to go through my previous posts (again: if you had not previously done so) and verify for yourself... if you are not convinced by the end of your read...perharps a verbal conversation with yours truly would do the trick...however; if after all that, you're still not convinced...it may be an indication of your intelligence level, which maybe sadly nothing can be done to improve!
