Evening Epilogue: Day 29 (Roommate Wanted) 87/90
Good evening, You gotta love days off. It offers you the time to do some of the things you want to do but just can’t seem to fit into your normal everyday schedule. Because if this were any other Tuesday, I would have been at work working. Yeah, you get the weekends to do your [...]
DAY 29: Ode to the Big Girl 86/90
Let me preface this by saying I’m not a “chubby chaser” or anything of the sort, but the other day I saw a woman that some might consider a “big girl” that caught my eye. She wasn’t big in the sense of obese, but big in terms of height and just the overall “solidness” of [...]
Morning Monologue: Day 29 (I Gotta Date Today) 85/90
Good morning, Waking up early is never fun, especially on your day off. If the stars had aligned in my favor, yesterday would have been the last day of my fast and I would have been able to be slothful today and bask in the glory of a random Jewish holiday. But that’s isn’t the [...]
Evening Epilogue: Day 28 (The Foreword) 84/90
Good evening, How goes it? In a good space right now. My energy is good and I feel good. Today wasn’t that stressful, and the fact that I’m off tomorrow only makes it better (thanx Jewish holiday). Add to that the fact that I now officially have only two days left ’til I can break [...]
DAY 28: What if…A Woman Proposed to Me 83/90

I guess the blog has positioned me to be [...]
Morning Monologue: Day 28 (The Prayer) 82/90
Good morning, Today I woke up and before I left the bed I took time to reflect and have a conversation with God. I’ve had a few during this fast, but this morning’s seemed more focused. It went a little something like this: Dear God, I thank you for allowing me to awake this morning. [...]
Evening Epilogue: Day 27 (In Effect Mode) 81/90
Good evening, It’s slowly starting to sink in that the fast is almost over. I have to say as much as I sometimes feel restricted by it; the thought of it ending also seems scary. I’ve gotten used to the process. The early hours. The constant writing. The focused thought. Someone told me when I [...]
DAY 27: Celebrity Crush (Res) 80/90
I have to thank my homegirl GANGSTARRGIRL for reminding me of Res’ beauty, but I’ve had a celebrity crush on her for years. For those that don’t know, Res (born Shareese Renée Ballard) is a Philly singer who mixes elements of rock and soul. Her debut album, How I Do, dropped in 2001 to little [...]
