thank you for the emails to whoop asses on my account. i love the thug in all of you!
thanks for the support and the love and the ear...it makes working thru the bull so much easier.

today is the official beginning of summer. crazee hot at 8 in the morning. dat's right - it was 75 before i even took amari to school! argh!

working on the book with my london gal pal - one of britan's illest writers! trust. the shyt just got snatched by an incredible publisher - look out for the drop in October. which is when her and i will travel -- she's coming to NYC then i will be in Europe for an entire month... nice

also gotta work on my article for the magz, my group piece with the team and my workshop write up for tomorrow's meeting... to say the least - carpel tunel will soon be in affect! but the creativity is worth it. yes!

white chocolate
soap
sweat
flurried kisses
and sun
