The Other Man

This has never really happened to me till now (or my goldfish memory is working overtime). My girlfriends are always talking about how right when they get into relationships is when all these guys start stepping to you. Nope,never me. In fact,usually,I never even notice other guys. He put a ring on it. I like […]

Fears that Bind

When I was a child, I was scared of things that moved in the dark, but not the dark itself. I was scared of the coat hanging on my wardrobe that would somehow morph into a bloodthirsty child-eating monster when the moon was high in the sky and the lights were off. Curtains would transmutate […]

Like a virgin 2

In my head- I wanna be a billionaire…so freakin bad… Again,the naivete. So. Isn’t sex expensive? The other day Mr. M. and I went to get tested.

But honestly,not everyone-in fact,no one-walks about with IQs taped to their foreheads. So I was judging-yes,judging-based purely on how they look. Does this make me shallow-or perceptive? Aha! Potato? Potato? One sharp-witted lass came to the interview garbed […]

How tSN became a part of the Rat Race. 2.

So having betrayed the entire afro-rebel society in one swift brush stroke,I left the house with my cavalier attitude in tow and a distinct uncertainty regarding my future.
