Resons Why I`m Not Coming Over

I`m a homebody. I hate leaving my apartment. When I`m not with my apartment, I`m thinking about it. Sometimes, I call and text it to see what its doing while I`m away. That`s not weird at all, right?

I was never really big on sleepovers as a little girl. I mean, I didn`t mind my friends sleeping over my house but I never wanted to go over there. What if I get hungry in the middle of the night? I can`t just get up and go in your refrigerator. If want some juice, I have to ask you to get it for me. Why your mama keep it so cold in this house? I`m freezing in this thin little sheet that you gave me to wrap up in. Where do ya`ll keep the face towels? How am I supposed to dry off my hands in the bathroom? I thought everyone kept those cute paper towels by their bathroom sink. See? You don`t want me to spend the night.

This is the main reason why the roommate thing just isn`t my cup of tea. Been there, done that. Speaking of tea, I`ll always offer a warm cup with lemon and agave nectar upon entering my home. If I really like you, I`ll even add a shot of Hennessy in there for you. Ya`ll ain`t grown enough to kick it with me.

Moral of the story is, make your home enjoyable for others if you`re going to invite someone over. Don`t have me fishing for the extra toilet paper in the cabinets. Be ready and willing to set out that wifi password. Make sure you have extra blankets. Young man, put the toilet seat down. Sista, sweep up the weave in the bathroom. Let`s make this visit easy for everyone.

  1. Gurla!! Lol i never had a prob staying over at other ppls house as long as the didn't have any vicious animals (cats with claws, dogs bigger than a puppy or any other animals that weren't the first 2) and they had a game system(s) or movies if they didn't have cable. Oh, there had to be more than one kid in the house bcuz if i get into it with one, I gotta able to go to the sis room n talk bad about them til she make me mad and i go back to the other ones room. Plus, I'm a night owl so while errybodys asleep I'm up watching tv on mute til about 4 or 5 in the morning. 😁

    Girl, i was too afraid to ask for anything so if i got hungry during the night, I'd sneak into the kitchen and get something quiet and make sure I didn't eat enuff to make it noticeable some was missing. If I got thirsty in the middle of the night I'd go right into the bathroom, turn the faucet on super low and drink lil handfuls of water til my thirst was quenched. #sneaky

    When i had my apt i made sure my first time visitors couldn't see a speck of hair on the sink or the floor and i had a full roll of TP on deck. Doors to the rooms were closed bcuz A) nuthing in there pertains to today's visit and B) it's prolly a royal mess in there. But I agree the home should be welcoming. Especially if you've got a ffffffffiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnneee ass dude coming to "kick it". We'll def want him back for another guest appearance. 😉

SWIPE RIGHT FOR THE ONE TIME

" I need a date for Valentine's Day " or " Another Valentine's Day...Alone ." or " 2 more weeks til Valentine's Day, who's gonna be my date ?" First of all, why have we been stressing about this day since the end of December? Secondly, I need a "pre-date" before I go out with you on Valentine's Day. What if you end up being crazy? What if you're boring and I don't like you? Then when we go out, I end up seeing the guy that I really like. Now I gotta peace you out. You ain't about to mess up a potential marriage for me. Hell. As crazy as this may sound to you, I never really saw Valentine's Day as a day to be miserable and in my feelings about the man who's not here rubbing my feet. I do that on Tuesdays. I remember being a little girl seeing my daddy walk through the door with balloons, flowers, cards, teddy bears, candies and cakes for me and my mother every Valentine's Day. We could always expect ...

JUNE 24TH FOR THE 26TH TIME

"This year I turn 26, damn it seem it came so quick. My ass and legs have gotten thick." Those are words from the great Erykah Badu. I tweaked the age a little bit. Man, I can really relate to that line. If you didn`t know, I celebrated my 26th birthday on June 24, 2015. Every birthday that I`ve ever had, I`ve looked forward to. I planned parties, organized trips, time off from work, etc. But this birthday was different. It didn`t feel the same this year. Usually, I`m anticipating the 24th. "What am I gonna wear?", "I need to loose some weight!", "I need home girl to take my shift!" Nope. Not this year. I was in the airport traveling for work because I. NEED. MONEY. I spent the months before planning new insurance and thinking about how I`m only 4 years away from 30. I can`t even click the 18-25 age group on job applications now. I`m starting to think about stability and stuff. All the bagels and sandwich breads are going to my hips. I`m attrac...

DRANKS AND PAINTS AND VIBES

"I wanna go out, but I don't want to be around a whole lot of people, but I wanna mingle and see new faces and I wanna hear good music but I don't wanna dance." If you're anything like me, an extroverted introvert, you appreciate a good night out minus all of the extra stuff like heels and crowds you can't move in. I wanted to bring in this past birthday as cool and chill as possible. You know, flats, cupcakes, a drink and a nap. Well, I started my weekend just the way I wanted to with the Specialty Cocktails + Urban Art Workshop! Yes, we was in there drinking and spray painting. What more can I ask for? Now, my first run in with spray paint was not a good one. Let me give ya'll a very quick story: Aight so boom... the year was 2009. I was out with some friends from school roaming the streets of Chicago at night. Keep in mind, I went to an art school so all of my friends were some sort of artists. The guys we were hanging with were sic...
