1 year.....

I almost let the date get away from me.

The 8th of last year was my very first post.

Usually on a date to remember I would treat myself to something special.

Like my birthday. Its more like birthmonth as I stretch the parties, celebrations and presents out all month long. Because it's all about me you see.

So in the past year - I have told you about my J and HB. Told a few funnies about my folks and poked fun at my brother (with love - as only a sister would do).

You have read about my love of Starbucks, smoking and booze. My knack for being lazy and loathing my fat ass. You listened while I critiqued my fave reality shows and possibly had a giggle or two when I ranted about hood.

I promise to keep writing and thinking of things that will maybe lighten up your day.

I will keep on sharing stories like the one I had today. I have another one coming up.

Let me preface the next story by saying - I am glad there are people in the world who will do those jobs no one wants to. I will gladly pay them for it too.

I shall celebrate this day with a Starbucks Iced coffee on the way home. I will have a brief cig while mixing a vodka and cranberry for the night. I will think of all of you while I watch the reruns of VH1's Surreal Life and make a toast to you all.
