Ladies, Do You Squat Or Sit When Peeing In Public Toilets?

Ever since I was a child, my mom has taught me to not sit on public toilets. And my mom's definition of "public toilet" is any toilet that isn't ours, no matter whose house it's in. When I have to use the toilet in my house, most times I don't look at it to see if it's clean because it's just me and Igwe, and I clean it every week --- and thankfully, Igwe does not pee on the toilet seat, so that's not even a conversation that we ever have. Even when I wake up to pee in the middle of the night, I Read More

Let Me Tell You About My Neighbor Tatiana

Igwe and I moved into our apartment in January of last year. Remember the post about our move? It's been a year and half and I still don't know the name of any of my neighbors. I know the couple that lives under us, and I know they have a little kid - about 3 or 4 years old. I don't know who lives on top of us, but he or she does not sleep. I hear him/her walking around all the time, and the floors creek, so ... yeah. Anyway, there's a Black couple we always see outside. I'd place the woman Read More

To All The Snails In The World, Please Forgive Me

I don't remember whether or not I have blogged about this before. But I feel the need to confess my transgressions. A long, long time, I was mean to snails. I was still in Jos at this time. I don't remember exactly how old I was, but maybe between 9 and 13, I don't know. There were lots of snails in my area. I should mention right now that I do not eat snails. I did not eat them at that time, I don't eat them now, and I don't foresee myself eating them in the nearest or farthest future. They Read More

What I Wore To Sade’s & Pelumi’s Wedding

I blogged about Sade's and Pelumi's wedding, so you have already seen what I wore. But I drove to Funmie's house to take these pictures, so you're gonna look at them, damn it! Because Igwe slept at the hotel with the wedding party on Friday night, I had no one to take my pictures on Saturday afternoon, so I drove to Funmie's house (about 10 minutes away from me). These pictures were rushed cause I had to drive an hour and 28 minutes to the wedding in Washington D.C. I forgot to take an up Read More

A Sweet Potato Sent Me Pictures Of His Penis

Walahi, I cannot make this up. Remember the other day when I blogged about penis length and girth (according to an article on Huffington Post Women)? My last paragraph of the post: To be clear on the point of this post: I don’t know what a penis with a 7 inch girth looks like, and I would appreciate some pictures from our male Sweet Potatoes. For educational purposes only. Of course. I cannot count how many times I have called for pictures like this in a post. Most times, I have not gone ahead Read More
