Kicking Off Beyonce History Month: Beyonce Bowl
Today, it finally hit me- the realization that this is the best I’m ever going to feel on a Sunday (aside from that one Sunday that I was burst out of the womb, thanks Ma). Finally, all my passions are coming together- Beyonce, God, and football. I’m feeling pretty euphoric right now so I’ll keep […]
Beauty & A Beat
The spring had come and gone and I was still suffering in silence at work. Things had not gotten better, in fact they had gotten much worse. In the beginning, when things took place in the office, that were inappropriate or uncomfortable, I had absolutely no issue with firing off a 10 page letter to […]
Dear Gloria Allred- Call Me.
Almost immediately after beginning my job as a certain foreign television network’s U.S. news producer, I was miserable. I’m talking within days. Six to be exact. As far as I was concerned, I’d been mislead, deceived and brought in under false pretenses. The network’s U.S. bureau, based in D.C., consisted of 4 employees- myself, a […]
Rules, Like Windows, Are Not Meant To Be Broken
As of late, my life has been a pretty twisted combination of Slumdog Millionaire meets Benjamin Button. I’ll go ahead and let you think about that one for a second. Here I am, sitting in my childhood bedroom at my parent’s house. I’ve just wrapped up a job interview, which was conducted via Skype because […]
The Bucket List
They say everything happens for a reason. It was really hard to believe that for awhile, particularly when I was convulsing on my bathroom floor in my depressed/suicidal state following the loss of my job and fall from grace. But, I really am starting to believe that it’s true- that lives fall apart when they […]
20-Something Things To Do Whilst On Bed Rest
It’s been a really dark time for me as of late. I can’t really be bothered to get into it right now (or get out of bed), but I trust that I’m 6 weeks of acupuncture therapy away from a turnaround. Until then, I am pretty much been confined to my bed, or a bed […]
These Are A Few Of Meh Favorite Things (Under $30…Don’t Bother Reading If We’re Dating)
Since the recession hit back in 2008, the art of gifting has really suffered. As a gift recipient, I haven’t been happy since the early 2000′s. No, it’s not because the gifts have been terrible, I’m not that shallow, but because my entire life has been cluttered with diffusors, candles, picture frames, snow globes and […]
Social Media Shithead: Rob Kardashian
Lately, I’ve been really appalled by the behavior of celebrities (specifically the Kardashians) via Twitter and Instagram. Sometimes I wonder if they know people can see what they post, and then I realize that’s pretty much the only reason they post anything at all. Looking at you, Kim. Anyway, I’ve always been really confused by […]
A Trip Down Memory Lane. With A DD.
Today my girlfriends and I spontaneously decided to head up to NYC for a weekend trip. With our impending departure, I couldn’t help but take a trip down memory lane, recalling the state of my physical and mental health this time last year when the same friend suggested a trip up to the Big Apple. […]

Chicken Soup For The Impoverished Soul
As a baby girl, there was just one thing I knew I could count on. When I was picked last in kickball (always), bee stung, knee scraped, bitch slapped and/or broken-hearted, there was one comfort that I knew would be awaiting me when I came crying home- Teta’s soup. For the culturally constipated, “Teta” is […]
