Best lifestyle & humor blog. Ever.
Apparently, I tell everyone who cares to listen that my friend, Uju, is a doctor. And I cannot help it. I am so, so proud of her. She is a fighter. Anyway, Uju’s birthday was this past Thursday, and we asked her several times what she wanted to do and she said nothing. So I decided to take matters into my own hands and tell the girls that we should all show up at Uju’s house on Saturday, unannounced. Well, {Read More}
It was totally Funmie’s idea to lie to you people AND to not tell you the truth until today. I refused, but she made a convincing argument. I haven’t read all the comments yet because yesterday was cray-cray for me, but judging from Funmie’s laughter when she called me last night, I anticipate some good, good stuff. I’m gonna go reply the comments once this is posted. Igwe was in on it, too. He told people on Twitter that I {Read More}
Lonnnnnnggggg post alert! Extreme picture overload!! Exit now!!! I have to start by really, really, really thanking every one of you for reading my blog. I honestly feel like I have a family here. You have been with me since 2006 when I started blogging, and I have blogged about all kinds of things: love, men, marriage, money, and my period, of course. That said, here’s how Igwe proposed. I mentioned on our anniversary day that we were going to {Read More}
So this past weekend was Thanksgiving. It technically wasn’t the weekend. In fact, technicality has nothing to do with this. It just was not the weekend. It was Thursday. However, with all the food and celebration, it felt like Saturday. The only thing that makes a week day holiday suck is having to go back to life the next day. Like, why couldn’t Friday be a holiday too? So I’ll start my weekend recount from Thursday. Thursday: Thanksgiving Day. I {Read More}
First, it was Texas, now it’s California. San Diego to be precise. This whole week has just blazed through, and I am yet to understand fully what I have been doing with my time. I’m working on a few things – big and small – for Verastic. And I will tell you more about them once they’re ready to have their stories told. I’ll be going to California today – San Diego – for a dear friend’s wedding – yes, {Read More}
This is a recount of my weekend. Yes, I know today is Thursday, and we’re almost in a new weekend, but bear with me. Saturday: After The Verastic Show, I attended a friend’s wedding with Igwe. Funmie and other friends were there too. I came home with Funmie for our slumber party. Uju came into town on Thursday, and she planned a slumber party in my house with her and Funmie. So Uju showed up at about 11pm. This {Read More}
So yesterday was Igwe’s graduation. Between Monday and now, I have been tired every minute of the day – slight hyperbole. On Monday night, I went to bed late, can’t even remember why now. On Tuesday, I spent the day cooking. By the time I was done, I could not wait to jump into the shower. I smelled like Knorr cubes. It’s not that the quantity or variety was a lot, it’s just that I’m a slow cook. I take {Read More}
The only reason I am writing about this is because it has become public knowledge. Most people know about it now. Some of our mutual friends have confronted me and asked me what is going on between me and my best friend, Funmie. The other day, I even got an anonymous comment here asking me why I betrayed my friend. Problem is, no one knows my side of the story. Apart from going to church and seizing the microphone to {Read More}
First of all, I apologize for taking this long to tell you about my birthday (it was on the 14th of January). That said, this year’s birthday was a blast! Last year was a blast. But this year was an even bigger blast. And most times, bigger is better … right? This cake was courtesy of Funmie, and it was mm mm good! More pictures and stories when you continue.
I know you were expecting a birthday post as usual, but nothing about yesterday’s birthday was usual. Like I mentioned before, what I really, really wanted was a birthday party, but since I came to that realization late. I decided to settle on having dinner with friends. This, too, was a late decision that only came on Wednesday night. I texted people on Thursday morning, and the dinner was on Friday night – my birthday – January, 14th 2011.
