My thoughts on Life, Writing, Hollywood, Children, My Neighbors, Love & Growing Up
You're not going to want to hear this but you have a problem. America has a problem. We all have a problem. While you may be the star of the show called your life, the spotlight doesn't always belong to you. In fact, there will be times it's not supposed to be on you. There... Continue Reading →
In case you need a reminder, it's mid October. It's that time of year when white girls all over the country eat, drink and breathe pumpkins. And while they raid stores fulfilling their annual obsession I'm sitting here having a minor panic attack because this year has flown by faster than my relationship with that... Continue Reading →
There are things that will happen in this lifetime that are devastating. Some things you'll see coming, others will blindside you and you won't believe it. When something bad happens in our lives, we take preventative measures so that it doesn't happen again. We favor an arm, we close off a part of ourselves we... Continue Reading →

"My son spit on me today." This is a text message I received from my best friend followed by "I want to stab him in the face with a fork." Meanwhile, I was reading a book on my couch wearing whitestrips and a charcoal peel-off mask. Talk about a Freaky Friday dynamic. I don't know... Continue Reading →
I had a post ready for this week but with everything that has happened, I don't think you want to hear about me using yogurt masks or letting Jillian Michaels kick my ass everyday. You can downplay what happened this past weekend. In fact, you can completely ignore it. Just know that in doing so,... Continue Reading →
