Me and my daughter watched Platinum Weddings last night. Well, it's true. Money can't buy style. The ENTIRE wedding was red and black. The bride's dress was black.
My daughter said I bet you the cake is gonna be red velvet. And you know it was! Jagged Edge performed and they hired a celebrity DJ. They spent 120 thousand on entertainment.The grand total for the wedding was half a million dollars. Is you crazy?
OK I'm all for black love and black folks getting married. But come on this wedding looked like a prom. or in my daughter's words, a kitchen ass country ass hot ghetto mess. Well.
Just so you know, we both love red velvet cake, and red and black are good...for blog themes...

Sunday's Best..
So I'm watching Sunday's Best on BET. As always, there were some people that had no business on that show. And there are two ladies, Crystal and Shari that I'm rooting for.
One of the ladies said that you have to praise God through your tears. In spite of your circumstances, God doesn't change!!
There have been times that I let my faith and trust in God waver, but I still believe in Him....

Oh, Dwayne, you Rock my world...
How do I lust after thee? Is it your smile, your confidence, the tattoos, or this scene from Walking Tall?
Reading is fundamental...
I first started reading at three years old. Ever since then, I'm in love with books. Seriously, lock me in a room with a stack two feet high and my ipod and I'm entertained!
Any way, I got to thinking about the whole urban fiction thing. On one hand, I'm happy to see more people reading cause not everyone is a card-carrying member of Oprah's book club.
Most of the plots are pretty standard and the endings are always predictable...
At the risk of sounding like a snob, extend yourselves just a little, people.. it doesn't hurt!

You Must Learn.....
OK, so I'm talking to my neighbor last night about an online petition I signed:
http://www.petitiononline.com/badpick/petition.html
I found out about it from here:
http://invisible-cinema.blogspot.com/
To make a long story short, I told her that I didn't think Beyonce is a good pick to play Angela Davis....then she said, Angela Davis, who's that? Are you serious? She's says, I'm a 80's baby.
That's no damn excuse!!! If that argument is valid, then I shouldn't know who she is either cause I'm in my 30's.
How can we be ignorant of our history????

RuPaul's Drag Race....
is officially my favorite show.
A sista finally paid the rent on the cable!
Where have you been all my life?
Oh, the drama, the makeup, the outfits, the runway!!
Akasha was damned from the start, the slip and fall on the runway!!! OOPS..
Nina Flowers working the punk drag yet still versatile...
Shanelle, with your cheeks hanging out...
Ongina, omg, when you said celebrate life, and made your confession, chile I almost broke down, my prayers are with you..
Bebe Zahara Benet, serving up Africa, and 21st century Josephine Baker...Black Power!!
Work the runway, sweeties!
If you have cable, you need to catch up right away!!
Seriously, speaking as a natural woman, these queens is serving it on a 24K platter..To think that some of these men look better than most of America's Top Models inspires me to believe that with enough makeup and the right supportive garments, I can serve these bony bitches!!!
It takes Courage, Uniqueness, Nerve and Talent!!!

Random questions (fueled by fatigue, negroitis, and Grey Goose)
Why does a man look better once you dump him?
Why are the best orgasms self-induced?
Why is my dream life better than real life?
Why would I rather watch cartoons than the news?
Why do I ask myself what happened to that little girl in the picture?
Why do people think since Obama is President, racism and ignorance doesn't exist?
Why do my children think I know where everything they own is at all times? Shit, can't even keep up with my own shit half the time?
Why are there more jails than schools in my neighborhood?
Why ask why?
