Lose an arm. Lose both arms, part of an abdomen, and half a leg. Means nothing. Nothing knocks a zombie off track. It is tunnel-visioned as it groans its way to its goal. What if more people were like this? Would we all be more successful? Think about zombies for a moment. Just think about […]
Everyone’s talking about bucket lists. People have things on their list like skydiving, water skiing, and snowboarding. (Ironically, all things that can get you killed.) You know what’s on my list? Nothing. Not because I’ve done everything I want to do in life. But if I were given, let’s say six months to live…let’s say […]
I always think it’s weird when super villains need money. Money is such a terrestrial object, such a human need that I always think that’s something that should be of little concern to a murderer or a thief. In the DCAU movie, “Batman/Superman: The World’s Finest,” Joker makes a deal with Lex to kill Superman […]
Marathon Reading Masochism | New Republic. Oh my God! I’ve never heard of this before. Spending 2-3 nights reading aloud. I…would love to do this. It sounds like people (Nerds. You have to be to do this) just gather together and read a series together. Eventually, as the night wears on people pass out, […]
The Indie Book Reviewers List | The IndieView. ATTENTION ALL INDIE WRITERS!! You need this. If you’ve not heard of this list, consider yourself notified. As most of us know, once you write your book and get it into the market, one of the most important things that will make or break your sales is […]

You’ll be able to not only read my work, but also to see the exercise and […]
So, according to my archive, December 2012 didn’t exist. But it did indeed. I turned 31 on the 3rd of December. Had a great time ice skating then sharing dinner with friends. For some reason I completely forgot about this blog, which is strange to me. But I did. It happened. Other things that are […]
Today is Thanksgiving. I know it has a rather dubious history, but still, the idea of taking at least one day of the year to voice a few things you’re thankful for does have merit. I would like to take this opportunity to be thankful for my heritage. That being an American woman of black, […]
So, now that I’ve graduated, I will no longer be using this blog for only business (and such) related posts. I will be using it for everything. I have shut down Nadi 1.0 and moved those posts to this blog. I’ve also changed my Twitter feed from my Curpy team to my own Twitter. Yes, […]
Alright, I have been horribly remiss in keeping up with my blog. Here’s what’s going on cliffnotes style. I am currently on vacation in Italy. I’m staying with my brother, his fiancee, and my 11-month-old nephew. He has a backyard view of the alps. (Pics to come later). We’re in Aviano which is an hour […]
