It puts the lotion in the basket.

My friend Han Nah gave me this delicious hand cream for my birthday this year. It’s L’Occitane “Creme Mains” which is fancy speak for hand cream. It’s amazing. It’s got Shea butter! See, I’m black (gasp!) and therefore I am ashy. The L’Occitane hand cream alleviates the ashiness, [...]

Soul Food for the Ching Chongs: All My Asian Bitches, Say Ho!!!

There’s jungle fever. And there’s yellow fever. My boyfriend? He’s got jungle fever. Me? I have yellow fever.
No, no, I’m not a lesbian and I don’t want to sleep with any women– Asian, regular, or decaffeinated, but for some reason all of my girlfriends in Los Angeles are Asian.
There’s Suna [...]

Stick a needle in my eye.

So, for anyone who is scared of acupuncture, don’t be. It is exactly awesome. See, this this little tumor of mine (I’m gonna let it shine!) has wreaked havoc on my lady parts. I first realized something was wrong in January 2007 after I hadn’t gotten my period in over a month. [...]

WTF: Bill O’Reilly Edition

Ok, folks. There are a lot of good bloggers out there– progressive bloggers who are addressing exactly how jact, fuct, whatever this country is. I’m not turning this into a space to bitch about politics because frankly, other people are a lot better at than me. Try Atrios over at Eschaton, [...]

I can’t take credit for this. My friend Moog can take credit. I don’t even think she can take full credit. I think someone at her work created it based on pictures taken by my friend Former Roommate and based on her impeccable photoshopping skills. But I don’t care who created [...]

Nate Dogg! Unlock the Door!

People:
You’re looking at this entry and going “Holy crap, I ain’t reading that.” Read it. Trust me. It’s worth it to see the vast ocean that is my stupidity.
The other night, Ramy, one of my bestest friends came into town from New Zealand. I was so excited he was in town [...]

It’s good to have talented friends.

I have a theory. One should make friends with individuals of different talents and skill sets. So when you need to get shit done, or you have a question, you call up the particular friend with aptitude in that area.
One should always know, in no particular order:
(1) a lawyer;
(2) a doctor;
(3) a mechanic;
(4) [...]

Improper spelling makes me twitch.

So last night I was “managing” my blog and I added a quaint little “what it is” section. Sweet. So I wanted to come up with a clever name. “Zeitgeist.” I’ve always liked that word. I can’t say I’ve always liked Germans, but their cake is turning me around. [...]

I gots the tiny tanks.

Below is a haiku I composed regarding a recent 24 hour pee collection test that I had to take in order for my endocrinologist to further test my elevated cortisol levels.
My pee in a jug.
Could not pee in porcelain.
The jug was not full.

 
I spent Memorial Day weekend pissing in this big ol jug. [...]

“Nate Dogg, you oughta be in pictchas… you’re gonna be a superstah!”

WARNING:  This post makes little sense unless you know the people I’m talking about and it barely makes sense even then.  The writing is a little, er, muddled.
I took my dog, Nate Dogg, a/k/a Nathaniel Quincy Dogg, III, d/b/a “Nate” to the Craftivism Fair this afternoon, downtown in Los Angeles’ Fashion District, a/k/a Little Mexico [...]
