Change Clothes and Go (Part 2)

“New year, new record, time to do bigger shit…”
-Talib Kweli, “Put it in the Air”
So here we are, I have finally made over my lair and I must say I am more than cool with it. I’ve been doing a lot of designing lately, and I must’ve gone through 10 ideas before I finally settled on this one. You like? You don’t like? You must like it, young, ‘cuz you still here.
In the midst of all this, I got around to redesigning ~SunRay~’s site. It’s girly, it’s flashy. She’s happy. That’s all that matters. So go check out her new look if you haven’t already.
There is also a new addition to the nOvaSlim family, that’s my boy Ray. Head over to his joint to see what in dee hayle he’s talking about, because most of us don’t know. (Just kidding) By the way, if you don’t visit him, he probably already knows who you are. He’s been stalking my blogroll for a minute…
Speaking of changing clothes and going somewhere, it has been confirmed that I will be in Atlanta for New Year’s. There, I will finally have the opportunity to meet Pookie, Mookie, Sexy Chocolate (hopefully), and most of all Too Smart For His Own Damn Good in person. I am really looking forward to this, moreso than I looked forward to Los Angeles. Hopefully I won’t forget to take my camera like I did when I went to New York.
So, if I don’t get to say it before this week is over, have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year all of you, and thanks for your constant support and attention.

Change Clothes and Go (Part 1)

New York, New York! Yeah, where my troopers at?
Where my hussa-las, where my boosters at?

Honestly I think I was a bad passenger. Driving up to NY with Anfanee was fabu, when I was awake. The night and a few hours before the big trek, I had one of my Diva Crises. What do I wear? Do I have enough money to survive? Why am I being saddled with an umbrella that doesn

1. Do you enjoy the cold weather and snow for the holidays?
Hell-to-the-nawh! I don’t unna-stan these people tom’bout they “like” the snow. The only time I liked the snow was when I was in school and they gave us a day off. As an adult, the snow does NOTHING for me but give me the blues. It looks pretty on TV, but in the ‘hood, it’s a shit of a mess. I remember one time as a child we all got together and decided we were gonna make a snowman. Since the snow at our disposal wasn’t really all that fresh, the snowman looked like he had Vitiligo or something.
2. What is your ideal holiday celebration? How, where, with whom would you celebrate to make things perfect?
I am all about the food, ya nahmean? Feed me Seymore! Feed me all night long…
3. Do you do have any holiday traditions?
Turning on the Christmas lights and watching the roaches scatter. Sike! I am so over traditions and stuff. Me and Dad don’t really celebrate much. We’ve both found a way to stay consistently broke throughout the year.
4. Do you do anything to help the needy?
The needy giving to the needy? Now that would be a good way to earn my wings.
5. What’s one gift would you like for yourself?
Peace of mind, not having to worry about things all the time. I really hate depending on that check that is supposed to come every other Thursday. No amount of tangible gifts can help me the way a major break can.
FRIDAY FIVE

Total December Pop-C

No “21 Questions” this month, so I decided to fill the void with the following entertainment news:

  • At this year’s Billboard Music Awards, Stevie Wonder had trouble presenting Sting’s 2003 Century Award. Apparently the cue cards were written in a different language.
  • Supermodel Tyra Banks is gearing up for the second season of her popular UPN reality show America

NOTE: This post is much easier to understand after the reading the one that precedes it.
Top 5 things wrong in my field of vision right now:
1. The fact that the same black people that have been giving MJ grief all this time have decided to
