Verastically Speakin Talk Radio will be airing on Saturday, and we’ll be talking about women who are accomplished, at least 30, and single. It’s gonna be hawt!! Tune in www.blogtalkradio.com/verastic And if you have any comments on the issue, you know where to reach me —> radio@verastic.com
I’ll be co-hosting with Good Naija Girl, Rosie, KC (a guy), a girl in London whose real name I cannot disclose at the moment because I don’t know if she wants it disclosed, and… Tigeress! Yes, our very own Tigeress. I e-mailed her and begged her to co-host, but the girl – such an extortionist! – insisted that we meet face to face. So meet, we did.
On Friday, August 14th 2009, I had a busy day, but I made it all the way to see Tigeress (even though she was about 40 minutes away from me. Yes, this is love), and we met. The babe is fine ooo! And I got to play with her birthday hair. But we forgot to take pics. Some other time.
On my way, my face looked just the way I felt: tired. So while I was driving, before I got to the tunnel, I took the opportunity to do a little make-up. Make-up here = only eye pencil. There is a reason why we are advised not to do make-up and drive at the same time. The way the eye pencil was drawn everywhere but where I wanted it, it looked like I had suffered two black eyes on one eye. Even I, was afraid of myself. I was eventually able to wipe it off and make it look descent. All for the love of Tigeress, of course.
When I was almost on her street, I had to park and turn my hazzard lights on. Why? My magic lip gloss was missing! Okay, it’s not magic per se, but it’s my favorite, and I wanted to put it on – just for Tigeress. Alas, that did not come to be. I was stuck with vaseline *sigh*
I planned on leaving at 8 PM (cause I just had to be home in time to watch Monk @ 9:00 PM), but that didn’t happen. You see, Tigeress took a liking – more like a “loving” – to me and practically went down on her knees and begged me to stay. As the kind-hearted person that I am, I couldn’t say no. How can one say no to that birthday hair? So stay, I did.
We were going to get chicken from some Naija joint, but that didn’t happen. Tigeress found interest in something someone else. Unfortunately, I left 10 minutes before her friend came back with the chicken. My only regret is that Bumight went there after me, and I fear that she ate what would have been mine. I hoped she will choke on it, but she’s still tweeting; I think that means she did not choke. One of two things could have happened: 1 – She didn’t eat the chicken. 2 – She ate the chicken and didn’t choke. Aaaahhh.
Well, that’s it for now, folks!! Be back Saturday.
P.S. This Saturday show is attracting a lotta attention. I wonder why. I may or may not be getting two more co-hosts. Hey, the more the merrier, right? But boy… so much estrogen! Thank goodness I have a man on the show too. A little testosterone to calm my their nerves.
Hope I made 1st… let me go and finish reading.
