In My Lifetime...

My parents remember where they were when Kennedy was assassinated.

They and others remember what they were doing when they heard the news that Martin Luther King, Jr. was assassinated.

For the first time in my life, I have one of those memories. In a few years, I will be able to tell my children and (many, many years later) grandchildren where I was when the first black man received the Democratic nomination for the President of the United States!!!!!

Granted, it's not the most romantic of locations. I'm sitting at my desk at work eating chilli-cheese fries and drinking Sunkist....LOL. But the moment is mine and it's still powerful.
I'm emotional, proud, nervous, excited, expectant and about a thousand other emotions over the next few months and the future of our country. It's an exciting time to be an American and an even more exciting time to be an African American!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OBAMA '08!!!!!!!!!!!!

You Smell So Good!!!!!

Wanna know how you can hear this phrase well into the day? Follow these tips for layering your scent and you won't be disappointed (thanks Bublin on LHCF!!!!!).

*Tip: Purchase the most expensive fragrance you can afford. Purchase it in a gift set if you can (which will come with body spray and lotion hopefully).

1. Shower/bathe yourself and then dry off as usual.
2. Spray the body spray on all over
3. Spray the eau de toilette all over
4. Spray the eau de Parfum on pulse points
5. Use the matching body lotion

Putting the lotion on last seals in the fragrance. Let me know how it works for you!

*Please be careful if you have any skin allergies*
