Blessed because I live in a place where the neighbors help each other shovel themselves to “freedom” after a snow storm.

Shout out to the girlies who were in elementary school perusing Hype Hair & daydreaming of the day you’d be “grown enough” for the styles you were seeing.

Type in your zodiac into gif and see what comes up! Post your fav one!

Update: I’m 3 chapters into Stone Sky and uh…I am definitely going to be revisiting this series after a palate cleanser or two.

I helped a little boy pick out his Wawa treat by teaching him “eenie-meanie-miney-moe”, and I feel I have completed my community service for the day.

Get you someone who has the range to go from “La La Lu” by Peggy Lee to “Damage Control” - (Culture Jam), Wale & Pusha T. Not me, though. There’s an armed man who can fight and don’t play about the kid.

16. Flew to California for a hs bball tourney & to visit my PopPop. We got into some fancy shop on Rodeo Drive cuz the salesperson thought he was Johnny Cochran 😂

Just came back from the Mediterranean in August. I went to Rome, Santorini, Mykonos, Kusadasi (Turkey), and Naples

I have no desire to see Russia

Kusadasi, Turkey

With family: technically, the 757 to visit my dad’s fam. Without family: Houston for a work conference.

Aruba

Auntie teaches the ancient texts.

When you have mega-stellium in two signs that immediately follow your sun sign… Fall is always ME season 🥰

The only place where I want everyone to know my name is Cheers. 500k me, stat!

Having decision paralysis because I try to be as informed as possible before making a choice. Once a choice is made, I’m going that way & not turning back. I hate to find out later I could/should have chosen a different path. 😡

We’re ten toes down on our decisions, once we make them.

All of em.

No thank you. I don’t wanna share a season.

Scorpio

Maybe it’s the two mega-stellium in my chart, but Scorpio and Sag

Libra

In other news, I’m tired of my work setup and now am shopping for a wireless keyboard/mouse situation. Corporate keyboard warriors…link me your favorite “click-clacks”, please.

Sometimes, I wish I could navigate life with the audacity and delusion of a mediocre palm person.

Let me see act iii live first then we can boycott

Yesterday was my birthday. Went on a hike & had brunch with That Man before having dinner with the fam. Grateful for this little life (I think I like it 😊) and that I get to spend it as a Black woman.

[redacted statement intended to deflect from being called a masterpiece] Thank you, Friend! 🫶🏾💜

Also, there is a toddler in my house but he called Coach Saint & asked if he could come over. He never calls my dad. Only “my Aunt T” (aka The Lady, my mama). So I walked in to the sounds of the Watercolors jazz station and a 3.5 year old yelling “CANNABAAAA” while he jumps on my mama’s bed.

Maybe it’s the two drinks I’ve had since I got home (shout out to my dad who had the drinks on brisk when I walked in), but tonight is feeling very whoa-hoa-hoa-hoa-hoa

I decided to wear my locs in a ponytail today. It’s 9:03 am and I’m about ready to take this jawn down.

No like listen, what the hell did she snort

I want whatever made Ms. Ross decide to go in the studio and slide her lady bits all over Love Hangover.

Proof of life or whatever

I have a soft spot in my heart for “Oscar”. It’s so funny and cute! Also, Mira Sorvino & Tim Curry.

I’ve decided I’m going to start saying “I appreciate the co-sign” when someone pays me a compliment.

Every time I think I’m not where I want to be in life, I remind myself that my savings account is ready for act iii.

Good morning! In case you were wondering (you weren’t but imma tell you anyway), the paper shredding company did not send the hot guy today.

Mid-morning blue-light break thought: I want new waist beads but I don’t want to go outside to get waist beads.

Refusing to apologize to children when they bring up a way we caused them harm. Confusing/conflating/misconstruing “hurtful” and “disrespect”. Thinking respect is rooted in fear.

If you had told 21 year old Jas that in 20 years, she’d be spending Saturday mornings drinking coffee, watching pre-k cartoons, and getting her makeup done by a toddler… she’d wonder why we let a man trap us like that.

I can’t resist a Flashback Friday braids edition 🥹

Someone leak the Epstein client list to her STAT!

Over half a mill. Call it focaccia.

Dear Future Bae, I love that sometimes when you’re telling me you planned a date, you send invisible ink “Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to be dressed & ready for 🍽️ and 💃🏾. You have until 1900 hours to complete this mission. Report to Mission Command Bae for details.” messages.

I was taught that God gave us unspeakable joy. Malice’s looks like he will joyously do unspeakable things.

Your friends? Consider them banged.

While I understand wanting to share your partner’s food, if you didn’t ask first or talk about sampling, don’t assume the sale and reach your hand/eating utensil into my plate. I am not afraid to stab somebody. Allegedly.

I done disappeared and reappeared without a voila.

Nobody: Me: The scale don’t lie, you ain’t even us.

I love that the American section of the diaspora is like “who the fuck is all?!”
