Chicago is Giving Me Brain Freeze
Seriously, I was going to write an entry today but I stepped outside, and I believe my brain fluid froze. Chicago ain’t SH*T for this weather. How cold is it, you ask? According to weather.com, It is currently 8 degrees, but the wind chill makes it feel like 11 degrees …

Hair 1, Comb 0
An Open Letter to my late Comb. Dear Rattail, I’m sorry you had to go like that. Twas a demise that was unexpected, and I am still shocked that you’re gone. Yes, I know I was wrong to wash my hair the day before I decided to braid it but …

I’m on an Anti-Diet
I know people are still dragging, dreaming of roasted turkey, mac ‘n cheese, stuffing, pies, jollof rice, suya, plantains… Wait, where was I going with this? Ah yes, it has been a rough transition back to work mode for some. Onward… I’m naturally small, and I’m built like I run …

Giving Many Thanks
Turkey Day is upon us, and I will refrain from being one of them bloggers who laments about the bogus beginnings of this beloved holiday. I will however, take this time to look around and give thanks for the blessings in my life. I am thankful for: Sweater tights – …

I Hate Winter
I just can’t cope. I’m not sure why it hits me hard every year like its the first time, but I hate cold weather/winter! I mean really. This ish is ridiculous. Today is like 20 degrees below obscene in Chicago (ok, its 17 degrees, but you get my point). I …

City Pigeons are Gangsta
I don’t know whether it is just Chicago ones, but city pigeons are gangsta as hell. Coming to work today, I encountered at least 5 tough ass pigeons who I was about to defer to. When did it become that you actually have to say “excuse me” to some little …
I’m An Overgrown Toddler
Part of my life’s mission is complete, folks. I have found a pair of adult footie pajamas. You don’t understand how much joy this brought me. It’s red with polka dots (even MORE awesome), and I cannot wait to get it. I ordered it last night and I shall count …

I Can Fall Asleep Anywhere
This weekend pretty much tuckered me out. I kicked it so hard and suffered for it the next day. Shoot, I was still sleepy when I went to work today. And when I’m sleepy, i’m no good. My cat eyes already look like slits. When I’m sleepy (or drunk), they …
Celebration Playlist
I am loving the positivity that is omnipresent with our new President-Elect Barack Obama. I swear I woke up on November 5th and the world was clearer and sunnier. My allergies miraculously cleared up and my terrible cold seemed to have subsided. Birds were singing, and I think people were …
Celebrate Good Times for Obama!
I was on YBF.com a couple of days ago, and she put a list up of ways for Black folks to celebrate if Obama wins to keep folks from getting nervous, at least for the first few days. I already broke ALL them rules and it has only been an …
