I've been tagged by Browngirl! This was hard, because I've revealed almost everything weird and random about myself here over the years. I did manage to come up with a few new things that maybe Browngirl (my friend of 20 years) and y'all might not know 'bout me, so here goes:
- I always finish my fries before taking one bite of the burger.
- I don't do...It...when my mom is in my house or when I'm in her house. I told her that after her Thanksgiving visit and she laughed at me so hard. I know I'm 30 and married and pregnant...she knows I do It, but for whatever reason, I can't go there when we're under the same roof.
- In my fantasy life I'm BFF's with Sanaa Lathan and Gabrielle Union.
- I experience deja vu A LOT. I believe I get glimpses of my future in my dreams. Really.
- I google "Kevin Hill" every couple of months looking for news of the series return.
- I have no clue how to talk to kids. I always feel so much pressure to say something interesting or funny to little people. I never know what to say.
- I feel guilty sometimes for shopping at Walmart 'cause of their shady business practices I've read and heard about. I never mention it to people I'm around the most because Austin is so anti-Walmart and pro-Local. I almost feel like a traitor. I don't go as much as I use to, but I still go there for some things because, hello?, their prices are SO good!











I feel the same way about #3 except Nia Long is also one of the BFF's. And..regarding number 1, I eat every single thing on my plate before taking one sip of my beverage...kinda weird too.

I feel you on #2. I remember not being able to tell my dad I was pregnant - and he officiated the wedding ceremony! I told my momma to tell him - cause I didn't want him to think I was "doing it"

@Lisa- mmm hmmm (Mouth twisted to the side) Yeah right.
@Quel... I always feel like you and Gabrielle Union are friends

I am so with you on #2. I was almost 4 months pregnant before I told my parents. Really, my husband shouted it out when I was on the phone with my mom one day. Left up to me, I'd of probably just showed up at home that Christmas with baby in tow!
I'm definitely with you on #7. I'm sorry, but my pockets are not deep enough for me to shop locally - and more expensively - for every day items.

Gurl you ain't gotta try to impress kids, they don't care lol!!! They just want you to be real with them. Aw shucks you'll learn little baby boy is on his way shortly. I loves me some Walmart, refuse to stop shopping there, the prices are just toooo amazing to stop. They haven't killted (LOL) anybody have they?

Quel I agree with you regarding #6. I keep wondering what am I going to talk about when I have my kids.
But #2 whatever...Tre would look at me crazy and I would do the same to him.. But I can admit the first time was kind of weird...
