cuz i missed u.
really & truly.
but during our time apart i managed to rack up lotsa fun stories & blurries to share.
since new york city
i have graced chicago, los angeles (duh), & las vegas with my presence.
i must say that i love my life.
it took me a while to look in the mirror & truly love the person lookin back at me
but now
i feel like i've tapped into some super charm that has lain dormant for so long.
funny
cuz my daily tarot (& u know i never listen to my daily tarot) keeps tellin me how magnetic i could be if & when i decide to recognize the effect of my natural charm.
well
me thinks i've finally decided to recognize it.
blame it on the leo ego
but
i am kinda feelin myself these days.
see
people tend to think that i'm jack davey all the time....
this bold, sassy, sexy, goodtime girl with no insecurities & this badass attitude
when in actuality
i'm an atypical leo with a cancer rising & a pisces moon.
my fire is surrounded by water.
i'm a sap by nature
so
for me to hit this point of undeniable charm is kinda new for me.
no
i'm not gettin out of control with it
but
i am enjoyin it.
wanna see how much?...lets start with chicago.
snow on the ground.
freezin wind.
cool kids.
an amazin show
&
an even more amazin (& drunken) after-party with dee-low, my fave lil thundercat, and one half of kidz in the hall amongst a few others.
too much hennessy
&
red wine
&
free beer
&
green stuff.
then, 11am rolled around & it was time to jet set back home

somehow, in the midst of rockin a session with steve bays of hot hot heat, i found time to hit yet another dilla event & (of course) the best jam session ever! ms. anita baker killed it for nostalgia's sake
&
i got to catch up with the lovely nikki jean
&
black thought kept the crowd movin
&
after way too much fun (& drinks) we made our way east on a rainy sunset blvd & realized that we better sober up or else we could end up like this...
eek.
the next few days were pretty lazy
&
then came sin city.

those are poprocks courtesy of my boy basik cuz he knows i love corny gifts & this fly guy promised to gimme $20 if i snorted a perfect poprock line.
delirious at the magic trade show?

did i walk away with the $20?
of course not!...i'm not THAT crazy.
oh, las vegas how i love u for short periods of time.
i had never attended the magic show out there, but jazzy benjamin suggested we take a roadtrip & drool over fashion for a few days. how could i say no?? i heart fashion & las vegas is just rowdy enough for me.
