Where were you last night and what were you doing?
I went to the gym than met up with friends for happy hour (I know, defeats the purpose of going to the gym but hey I burn some calories to make room for the tron margaritas and nachos)

Last week while watching Malcolm X. Everything makes me cry.


If you could eat one last meal, what would it be?
Garlic chicken and Phad Thai from my fav Thai restaurant, fried chicken and catfish from Peachtree restaurant, my sister’s potato casserole, some iyan to dip in my mom’s soup and okra and some jollof rice. (What? It is my last meal, no need to count calories.)



If you were stranded on a deserted Island, which book and music CD would you like to have?
Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, I loved that CD. I would find a way to sneak a Bey or DC album in. F it, I grabbing my iPod. I don’t go anywhere w/o my Bible.


Is there anything about you that might surprise people?
4 out of 5 chicks I’ve called my BFF have decided they wanted to become lesbians but one of them has found Jesus and is back “straight.” I am 100% strickly dickly so I don’t know why this kept happening. I use to have a hard time dealing with it b/c I thought it was something wrong with me or something I was doing but now that I I know more of their history with men, I see why.
