April 30, 2009 by savvydiva

RECESSION, POVERTY –Two bold rambunctious words swirling around in my brain as I attempt to rationalize the depletion of fluid funds in all of my accounts.

Arguments

March 21, 2009 by savvydiva

My man and I never argue. We sing tunes of frustration, and then we kiss. So he thought. I was already displaying signs of my other personality due to the arrival of my “Aunt Dot”. She arrives just when I am feeling so sexy, lovable and irresistible. He knows how I am, especially when my […]

If you haven’t realized by now, Jealousy is universal. Racially, the emotion is definitely universal amongst the female gender. I have experienced dozens of jealousy issues with my girlfriends, and it definitely doesn’t discriminate with age.

February 3, 2009 by savvydiva

How many times have you forgotten a detrimental step in your morning routine – brushing your teeth or rolling on deodorant? I can probably count the times on one hand and I am proud to say it’s a universal thing. It’s the funniest thing when you sit back and reflect on those days when you […]

Unrealistic Reality

January 11, 2009 by savvydiva

I snuggled with my man, burrowing my face in his chest, tickling his nose with strands of my untamed hair, and realized I was missing the Real World. In a panic, realizing I’ve already missed eight minutes, I jumped from his embrace to find the remote. Now, to appreciate the addiction of the unrealistic version […]
