Delusions of Grandeur

One of my great-grandfathers used to talk about people who walked around with “delusions of grandeur,” this idea of their own overwhelming importance. I would say that definitely has to apply with Beyonce and Jay-Z, given all I’ve heard about the prep that went into the arrival of their baby. I mean, they have lots [...]

The Org Chart

So then the Tech Guru reads the last post, and he starts murmuring, I didn’t think you had to go there. HE JUST CANNOT SHUT UP. He’s about to get fired. Let me make this very clear: I AM THE WRITER. I WRITE WHAT I WANT, WHEN I WANT. If I want to BEAT SOMETHING [...]

CODE RED! CODE RED! CODE RED!!!

WE INTERRUPT THE REGULARLY SCHEDULED PROGRAM FOR THE FOLLOWING ANNOUNCEMENT: I CANNOT FIND MY FUCKING ANXIETY MEDICATION. CODE RED! REPEAT: CODE  - FUCKING – RED!!!! I had a bottle of Ativan that I carried in my bag so that if anxiety hit me while I was out and about, I would have it readily available. [...]

Football for Dummies

So tonight, I am watching football. The Eagles are playing Monday Night Football. (In case you didn’t know, the Eagles are the football team you must support in order to live in this house.) Now, I am relatively new to the sport. Until I met the Tech Guru some, what, 14 years ago, I didn’t [...]

Sex, Lies and Videotape

Okay, I have to confess… There is nothing in this post about sex. Or videotape. (Which, when paired with sex, can apparently get you a whole reality show career that involves you sleeping with lots of sports stars and finally having a wedding in which you do not spend money but earn it, right Kim [...]

And Another Thing About the Vaginas…

So I was thinking about the whole “hot female vagina” thing. (If you have no idea what I’m talking about, please, catch up.) Anyhow, as I was saying, I was pondering the whole thing and then it hit me… What ass types in “hot female vagina“? I mean, think about it. Have you ever known [...]

It’s Hot and Beautiful Outside

…just like me. In your face, Shit-oshi Kanazawa. (I know, infantile…but what do you expect from a woman who hangs out with a 7-year old and a 3-year old all day?) I’m feeling good. It’s a long weekend. The Tech Guru is already on his way home, although he just texted me that he is [...]

Ooh! I Love How BIG It Is!

Admit it…you wanted to see if I was talking about The Tech Guru’s manhood, didn’t you? Sorry, folks. Catch me when I’m drunk and I’ll go into graphic detail, but for now…no. What I am talking about – and I shock myself with this one – is the whole Kim Kardashian/Kris Humphries engagement thing. I [...]

Where Are the Creative Women of Color?

I got really excited when I saw the BlogHer Handmade conference, given my recent bent towards doing stuff with my hands. Painting, crocheting, I don’t know what it is with me right now, but I’m feeling it. But the more I looked through the conference agenda, the more disenchanted I got. For the full rundown, [...]

Me and the Oscars

I don’t know what it is with me and awards shows. There is just no possible way… that I could give less of a shit. Not sure what that’s about, to be honest. I just don’t care. Globes, Grammys, Emmys, People’s Choice, whatever, I just don’t care. Not about the clothes, not about who won, [...]
