  • “Be mindful of how you leave,” a stranger posted in a Facebook group in response to someone who had just purchased a home and wondered if she should pay her last month’s rent. Many years ago, I worked at a bank. The teller called in and quit, no notice, only to come back a few…

  • What if we told the truth? “I like you but I think you make dumb decisions. Are we still gonna be friends or what?” “I wish you were someone else but you’re here so do you still wanna be my boyfriend or not?” We are all liars to some degree. To tell the truth is…

  • *Cue Usher* I burned my right index finger Monday night attempting to turn chicken with a short fork. I reached into the oven just a little to deep a YOWZAA! My index finger has a grill mark.  I immediately put a cube of ice on it and the pain subsided but as soon as the…

  • I am ambivalent about texting. I understand it is a quick, truncated form of communication. You can deliver your message in seconds – no ring, no voicemail, no unnecessary repartee. I just cannot get jiggy with it.  I am a woman in love with words. I am also an observer of people. There is no…

  • I really cannot stand when I visit my favorite blogs and there has not been any updates in like FOREVER! Do you guys feel that way about me. lol  *hangs head and walks away* I really need some exciting things to occur in my life that are blog worthy. Sure I could make a great…

  • Ever wonder when you should be that nice person to point out something or when you should mind your own business and walk away. Well, I have a guide, lol. 1.   The Gold Toofus – Sorry I was watching Martin reruns and that Gerome never gets old. I know someone with a big gold tooth right…

  • I was over at Very Smart Brothas and ran across a post entitled, "Building the Perfect Woman." I won't go into the ridiculousness that men consider "perfect" on a woman. Suffice it to say, if it were left up to men, women would be a conglomeration of double d's, a big butt and a smile. The…
