Aaargh. I just spent an inappropriate amount of time (I’m @ work) creating my first post, and it is nowhere to be found. Here I go again . . .

Welcome to me. I’ve been lurking around on other blogs for a while, and decided it was high time to create one of my own. I can’t believe I finally decided to create one and am now at a loss for words – a rarity for me indeed. So, here’s a list of 25 things you always wanted to know about me. Enjoy. I’ll be back at a later date. Holla!

1. I live in Mississippi.

2. I was born and raised in California.

3. I am happily married to Smoochy.

4. I am the proud mother of Lovegirl. She is the joy of my life!

5. I love, love, love fish tacos.

6. I am convinced that chocolate is overrated.

7. I am the oldest of 4 – and the only girl.

8. I love to read and am deeply saddened by the lack of current and good black fiction available. I do not want to read about your baby mama/daddy drama. That’s just not who or where I am.

9. I eat a peanut butter and apricot jelly sandwich at least 3x a week.

10. My relatives are my favorite people in the world.

11. Prince is my absolute favorite musical artist. I went to see him in concert when I was 7 months pregnant, and even though I was secretly worried the noise levels would in some way harm my unborn child, I had to go. The Musicology Tour was da bomb!

12. I love the color purple, but would not be caught dead wearing it.

13. My greatest comfort comes from knowing that God loves me.

14. I went to a historically black university. The culture shock nearly did me in. I eventually transitioned from “Valley Girl” to “A Different World” quite nicely.

15. Old music = good music.

16. I am buying myself an iPod nano for my birthday next month.

17. I love to dance, I’m just not good at it.

18. Chick-Fil-A is my fast food guilty pleasure.

19. I spend way too much money in search of the perfect everyday lipgloss/lipstick color.

20. I gave birth totally unmedicated. And didn’t feel a thing. Believe that!

21. I am a procrastinator to the nth degree.

22. Imitation of Life is my favorite movie.

23. I think Halle Berry is gorgeous – and that she’s not that great an actress.

24. Several swimming classes later, and I still can’t really swim.

25. One of my life’s goals is to visit each of the 50 states and every continent.

I must say you have to be crazy to even believe #6 :) And sh*t #20 is just impressive!

“I eventually transitioned from “Valley Girl” to “A Different World” quite nicely.”
LOL I was the opposite in highschool moving from Chicago to Maryland suburb, land of the preps. Went from “yo-girl” (ugh can’t believe I said that) to J.Crew wearing pretty darn quick.

8. I must have lost my soul card along the way because I can’t dance to save my life.
9. I’m still looking for the perfect lipgloss.
10. I gave birth to my first child totally unmedicated. And told the doctor I could do it all over again because it was breeze.
11. I’m also a major procrastinator.
