Ms Winehouse
I can respect a woman who lives life like it could end any moment. Amy Winehouse is just that kind of broad. An alchoholic, anorexic, wild woman with the kind of attitude that let's you know she really doesn't have much to lose. She's lovely.
Plus there's that voice. It's a whiskey drinkin' voice, the kind you only get from crying all night and smoking cigarettes....It's gorgeous...She's gorgeous.
Check her out for yourself.

Keep your eyes open, she'll be dead in a couple years.

Pinky:
I remember when I moved to The Bronx and I was like 15, and there was a girl on my block that we called Pinky. She had pink hair of course, but she was really really hood.....Like, she'd jump you for looking at her wrong. She taught me how to navigate the city and take care of myself in a month, seriously. I loved her for her energy and how vibrant she was. That hair was just icing on the cake....
Now, Is Kelis trying to bite Pinky? Because if so, she's doing a good job.
Candy colored hair is where it's at. Forreal.
I hope everyone's week is starting off well!

Yeah Yeah Yeah....
So we all know what today is, blah blah blah, roses and candy and whatever. I'm going to be a bitch because I am still up in the air about what I have going on, so deal with it.
At any rate, my people got things going down, so if you want to bring your dates, or your very attractive single male friends (preferably between 25 and 45 years of age) then feel free, most of them are Gratis anyway.

And speaking of Kelis...
Her and hubby Nas are shooting a reality show similar to Nick and Jessica's Newley Weds series. Now from what I've seen, all couples that have chosen to go this route have ended up in divorce (Nick and Jes, David Navarro and Carmen Electra, Travis Barker and his chick). I'm hoping for the best though.
