Dear GMail, Never Crash Again
So I was minding my own bitness at work yesterday when I refreshed my GMail inbox and saw that it was down. Life got real dark right then and there. This is why this week’s sternly-worded email is to GMail. For playing all these bald-headed games with me and my …
Prince is Pretty But I Don’t Find Him Sexy
“You know you got power, when everyone comes to your concert wearing purple sweaters.” – My friend, V.E.G. So I was watching TVOne yesterday, and “Purple Rain” came on. I’ve never watched it before, but I know it’s a classic because people still make references to it. While watching, I …
GAP and I were Born To Fit!
Aight so let me tell y’all. A couple of months ago, I got contacted by Justine of the firm Brand About Town because they liked my blog and thought I was a “buzzmaker” and “trendsetter”. I was surprised because I was like “My blog? My lil corner of the intrawebs?” …

AKA Wax Statue Madness
Disclaimer: Let me just say I have nothing against the ladies in Pink & Green. I’m a roaster lover, not a fighter. I just hope this and my last post about Black Greek Letter Organizations (Clinton’s a Sigma, Jesus is an Alpha) don’t get me or my future chilrun blacklisted …
I am a Walking Contradiction
“Getting Re-acquainted with Luvvie” Week continues. With that being said, I must admit that I’m a walking contradiction. I’m a paradox and a conundrum all wrapped up in a discrepancy. Why? Well, let me tell you. iSpy on myself *My avatar winks, but iCan’t. – Yes y’all. I admit it. …
Clinton’s a Sigma, Jesus is an Alpha (and Omega)
Folks take their Black Greek affiliations serious! This is why I was taken aback (albeit while laughing uncontrollably) when I found out that William Jefferson Clinton has been inducted as an honorary member of the historically Black fraternity, Phi Beta Sigma. At first, I thought it was another internet hoax …
Dear PETA, Really?
The other day, I was in my office when all of a sudden a huge fly comes swirling around out of nowhere. You already know about my fear of creepy crawlers. That rodent with wings was pissing me off because it just would not get out my office. So I …
Dear BET, iQuit U
This week’s sternly-worded letter has been well-earned, and quite the opposite of the last letter I wrote. Lawd, is I pissed! So to my fam members who read this (and Granny Doretha in Missississippi), just know I’ont act like this regularly. The rest of y’all, I ain’t worried. LOL. So, …
A Letter to Michael: Moonwalking on the Clouds
My kids WILL know that “Billie Jean” was not your lover while “Jam”ming. We won’t “Stop Till We Get Enough”. Michael, you made “HIStory” and that is undeniable. Now that you’ve “Eased on Down the Road” to meet Him, I “Cry” because you’re “Gone Too Soon”. We thought “Heaven can wait” but it apparently couldn’t. Your music “Heal(ed) the World” and for that, you “Rock my World”. I “Never Can Say Goodbye” but I do I hope you’re resting in peace.
