700 Posts and 6 Years Later: It’s My Blogversary!
I’m a TERRIBLE house blog mother because yesterday was an important anniversary and I forgot it. But now I am here and I must pay amish… to MYSELF. I’m a Capricorn and my blog is a Leo. I’ve been blogging for 9 years, but six years ago on August 8, …
I Watched Honey Boo Boo on TLC and It’s Awesomely Ratchet.
I was peer pressured into watching TLC’s newest show Here Comes Honey Boo Boo featuring standout girl Alana from Toddlers and Tiaras and her family. And let me tell you I AM GLAD I WATCHED! Let me tell you about Honey Boo Boo. She’s 5 years old and a non-winning …
Why Am I Here for Joseline Now? My Love and Hip Hop ATL Recap
LAWD, Love and Hip Hop ATL somehow ups its’ ratchetness quotient EVERY week. That takes skill from a show whose first three episodes included abortions and beatings. Anywho, last night’s ep gave me what I needed. Why is Mimi always talking tough to Stevie but her actions never back it …
Dear Everyone Hating on Gabby Douglas’ Hair, Have A Seat.
Three weeks ago, I didn’t know who Gabrielle Douglas was. I had never heard of the 4 foot 11 inches 16-year-old from Virginia with an infectious smile and a love for the Lord. Now, I know and love Gabby, as if she was a little sister or cousin. I root …

Come for Mother Oprah on Twitter and You Might Get Embarrassed
People do try to come for the wigs of celebrities on a daily basis and usually they walk away pretty unscathed. Twitter is the perfect place where this happens, and I wrote about this in my Stages of Twitter Celebrity Roast and Wig Snatch post. Someone fixed their mouth to …
Turn All the Lights of Heaven On for Sherman Hemsley
When I tell you that 2012 has NO chill, please believe me. My goodness! This year just won’t stop taking our icons. This is one streak I’d like to end because every day when another celebrity from the days of yore is said to be dead, my childhood light dims …
I’m in the City of Angels Making My Dreams Come True
Hey folks! I’ll be MIA from blogging this next week. I’m in Los Angeles working on a project I can’t talk much about yet. But it’s a dream come true and I’m blessed to have the opportunity. And it’s all because of my blog and my writing and my love …
Breaking Bad Season 5 Premiere Took NO Prisoners (No Spoilers)
One of the shows I just started watching in the past couple of months is AMC’s Breaking Bad because Afrobella told me it was awesome. So I went to Netflix, where they got seasons 1-4. I watched ALL the episodes in like 2 months, and I GOT MY LIFE. And the …
