...with Rosie!The thing is, I don't think she knows about it.It all started on August 22nd of this year when Rosie co-hosted with me for the Female, Accomplished, Over 30, and Single show. That was Rosie's debut on the Verastically Speakin' Talk Radio. Mr. Shoes listened to that show as usual, and he loved it. He later told me that Rosie was his favorite co-host because he liked her voice.A few weeks ago, we [Mr. Shoes and I] were planning the upcoming shows, and when I Read More
My Husband Is Pregnant With My Baby
So I was working on my laptop the other day, not paying any particular attention to what was on the television, until I thought I imagined a voice saying, "My husband is pregnant with my baby..." Naturally, that got my attention.It turned out I had not imagined it. The voice really did say that her husband was pregnant with her baby. The only thing is that the voice belonged to a male. So it was a male then who said, "My husband is pregnant with my baby..." Wait, huh??? You're probably as Read More
You Got What For Christmas???
When I was 14 (in Nigeria), my dad went to the store and bought me a Christmas dress - as was the tradition for Christmas and Easter. Big mistake for this particular year.

In other words, it had a very long belt that had to be tied at the back, and it (the dress) was also very long. Did I mention I was Read More
Some Things Are Better Left Unsaid (1)
This post is probably one of them.You ever notice how people conveniently avoid the woman with the baby on the flight? You can't blame them really. What are the chances that the baby will not scream them to oblivion? It's not like they can yell at the baby. Well, they can --- but imagine who would be the bad guy after that. Besides, that would probably cause the baby to scream longer and louder.I remember this flight I was on, and there was a woman, her baby, and another woman whom I Read More
There She Goes Again…
My mom.There she goes again.Yesterday was Halloween. For the Non-Americans, Halloween is a day that people - children and adults alike - dress up in costumes and go around at night (or evening time, rather) knocking on people's doors and begging for candy. As a Christian - a Nigerian one for that matter - I don't celebrate Halloween. Several years ago, I read up on the history of Halloween. It's been years, so my details might be rusty, but according to what I read and what I remember, Read More
