Happy Tuesday Everybody! I am sorry today’s post is coming a tad late. I was off yesterday so today feels like Monday to me. So onto today’s matter, please eh - have you ever heard that you can learn a lot about someone's type from his or her celebrity crush? Okay so, one of my people was gisting me about some guy she met.

Entitlement (or should I say “The Nerve”)
Happy October beautiful people!!! ?? I hope so far so great! Okay so, one of my friends, after a few weeks in Europe, came back, complaining about the U.S. (snob!) "Being away made me realize how entitled people here are! Why do we tip for services? Is it by force to tip people? People here have an attitude when you don't leave a tip or worst, if your tip is small. I mean, where did that even come from?!" When he was done, I was like "so... whatchu bring me?" He shook his head and that was the end of that convo. I didn't think about it (at all) until... Last night, I … [Read more...]

I Just blogged… To Say….
Happy Friday loves! Okay so, last night I thought life as I've come to love it had changed forever. I legit thought (for a good 3 minutes or so) that my soul mate (currently on vacay in Paris) died. Like died died. Like was dead AND deceased died. To understand how devastating those 3 minutes were, allow me to tell you a little something something about said soul mate. My soul mate is the biggest pain in my behind. In real life, I do not like her. She is every kind of crazy there is; she's sends me the most inappropriate messages at the worst times, kills moments … [Read more...]
