Yeah So . . . Life and Stuff. . .

FAB!

What’s poppin’ ya’ll? Did you enjoy your extended weekend? Was Labor Day good to you? Who hosted a backyard BBQ to bid our dear summer a proper farewell? I didn’t. So, I’ll have to live vicariously through you this time around…

Anyhoo, busy, busy over here. Updates are coming your way with new music and a few announcements too. Aight? My intentions were to update this piece over the past weekend but instead I opted to work on a few projects and write some letters that needed to be written (sucky letters nothing fun).


LIFE & STUFF:

A. My son entered high school today. Hip Hop Hoooray! Just 4 more years and shorty (he’s 6′4″) will be off to college (God willing). I am so proud of him. My baby is growing up! I am excited for him! I am excited for myself!

B. Being an adult is a blast! [enter sarcasm here]. Turns out that I am going to have to take my former landlord to court. The bastard came up way extra short on my rental deposit refund (for no good reason). I guess he thinks just because I live in the hood, he can “get over” on a sister. Little does he know that I wield a keyboard something fierce and I am NOT THE ONE to be fucked with. It’s time to get Judge Mathis on that ass. I gets mean when you mess with my ‘green’. So, now I have to spend my precious time learning the legal process and filing paperwork, etc. Not my idea of a good time, but I refuse to let this attempted fuckery slide.

C. I am applying for my very first writers grant. The grant is geared towards emerging writers who need an extra push to help take them to the next level. This weekend I attended a workshop that helps writers with the process of completing the application and become an award winning recipient. The competition is tight and the process is very detail oriented and structured. I will be spending the next several weeks getting my act together. Wish me luck!

D. My grandmothers renter owes rent money. Why did I find that bitch hiding in the basement (the area she rents, the basement, is ‘finished’ with a toilet, shower, kitchenette, etc.) She told my granny she had to leave out of town on a family emergency and that she’d pay rent when she got back, or some bullshit like that. It just so happened (on a humbug) that I was visiting and needed to take a look in the supply room for some painting items my grandmother had asked me take inventory of. I click on the lights, walk down the steps, go to the supply room and SUPRPRISE!!!! This bitch was leaned up in the dark, hiding against a cabinet with spiderwebs and three inches of dust on it. I aint even lying. So now I have to regulate and get this broad out of my grannys house. Long story short.

Yeah, so that’s the type of mess I be dealing with on top of walking a tight rope in stilettos @ 200 lbs.

Yeah. LOL!

I’m in good spirits though. And you know this!

Cuz the Devil is a LIAR.

Sigining Off,

The Take That Shit To Trial, My Baby is Growing Up, I’mma Have to Put Your Hiding Ass Out, Life Navigating, Grant Writing, Saucy Dame Dizzle!!!

  3. I didn’t bbq either. As a matter of fact, the only time I went outside was on my front step. I work hard, it was my holiday.

    Evictions are a pain! Kick that heifer to the curb!

  6. I BBQ’d at my older brothers birthday party on Sunday but was pretty sick for the rest of the weekend.

    It’s a different world when the young man enters high school. All the girls will be calling and you know he doesn’t want to run into his mom who will embarass him in the park again! Hahahaa…that was funny.
