NE Lamping



Lamping. As in, to lamp. It's a verb. I'm bringing it back. Anywho, this spot is right up the street from me and it's long overdue time that I went and showed some love.

Now that I know Lady Trinity hosts open mic Monday's, I'm so there. Maybe she needs someone to play instrumentals for the emcees - It's time I dusted the good 12"s off...

The Circus Is Coming To Town

We already know the Brooklyn Circus has been doing an amazing job holding down the men's clothing game. They've given me new hope for the future of MALE SWAG.

In recent visits to their website..I found that not ONLY have they opened up a new store in SF....BUT their Ladies T's are now for sale online!!! I'm so SICED!!! Picture me ROCKIN!!!

Here's a preview.






and thank you so much for using REAL WOMEN as your models!! I honestly feel like I can fit their clothes (you know I got those child bearing hips)!!!

Bammer Bees



This is how I feel this morning (yes, I realize it's 1:08pm). Pretty glorious. Pretty peachy. Thank you shout-outs to all the famalam that came porch-lamped it with me and Rae last night (see vlog below). If any of you ever need to borrow a cup of flour, holler. A spare kidney? Not so much. But I do really adore and luh you tricks.

Special shout-out to Flip Flop's boo! You're adorable. Gold star for hanging tough with the AJC / Thrilla / Etc kids. ♥

This is how we chill, from '93 till. Next time, we're taking cues from these guys. I'm stock-piling Mondos as we speak...

Ode To Clawz♥


I never forget the day I made up mind...I was gonna cut off ALL my hair and go natural.

11.05

I Just got out of a LONG relationship (which produced my SONLIGHT).

My Mama got diagnosed with Breast Cancer.

3 days later my grandpa died.

I was nervous as HELL....and STRESSED as HELL.

I was rocking this ILL mohawk...with steps on the side...the job was halfway done.

But still...loosing what almost (well I thought at the time) defined me as a WOMAN...for whatever time it took for it to grow back...was a HUGE STEP.

I ran across this chicks myspace page.

Is...that?? NAH!! FA REAL?!?!? I remember her from Blackplanet...she was like the QUEEN of BLACKPLANET!!

She cut off all her hair too?!?!?

It was like an immediate support system. Not only did I meet another chick to help me along the "natural" journey....I met a FANTASTIC FRIEND!!!!!

Even though she's across the country...I hold her dear.

We are >< HERE.

FABFF!!! AKA NY'S FINEST *PUN*






And whats a Lady without her.....
