Late-night Ramblings/Randomness

I feel like I've totally been out of it these past two weeks.

Just got back from a weekend in NYC on Monday and put my brother on a plane back to Ohio before more family came Tuesday evening to bring a cousin to Gallaudet. Between helping them get her settled, working, and taking them site seeing, I have worn myself out (never really recovered from NYC in the first place).

They just hit the road for Ohio (not sure why at 2 am) and now I can't get back to sleep! Started catching up on my blog reading and finding out what's going on in the world.

One topic that's creating a lot of buzz is the birth of Nas and Kelis' son Knight. Poor thing was in labor for like 3 days and seemingly alone since they wouldn't let Nas in the room. Is anybody else just sick at the fact that they are divorcing?? I always looked at the two a certain way, they gave me hope in black love/marriage or something. Now all we've got is Beyonce and Jay-Z. At least the judge is making Nas give her some moolah cause the girl hasn't had a hit in a while.

Next, this Chris Brown apology video (SMH). Didn't this alleged beatdown happen like 4 months ago? Why is this story even relevant? And what does Chris Brown owe us? And why do we still care? I guess there were legal reasons why he couldn't apologize before but did his PR reps really think it was a good idea to remind us of what he did? I think that is about all of the energy I can give to that subject…I've been over that and Rihanna since February.

I was going to do a weekend update about my mini-vacay but I don't have much to talk about (so sad). Went to NYC but couldn't FULLY enjoy myself because I'm super duper broke. This summer has sucked in the financial department. Ran into my sister's ex (most awkward moment of my life), went to Coney Island for the first time and loved it, and spent Sunday in Brooklyn. I have to devote an entire sentence to the fact that I got both corn and a catfish burrito from Habana Café which made my whole trip!

At this point I'm just praying to the Lord to get me through this week and then I'm all about the Nasty Nati!
