I had a relatively painless trip back to Cali after Christmas in Alabama. By some act of God, none of my Delta flights were delayed and the chili powder BO fuming from the middle-aged brown man sitting next to me seemed to dissipate once we were at 10,000 feet. Is that how high planes go? You get it. After arriving at LAX, I was waiting for my bag to arrive (so I checked a bag, it was 12 days, sue...

What gives? You’d...

I just returned (okay, it was Monday; I’m a slacker, who loves using semicolons) from a lovely trip to the Big Apple. I met my adorable mother and father there and despite reminding them multiple times that I hadn’t been to NYC in ten years, they looked to me as their pro travel guide the whole time. It was somewhat stressful but sista ain’t complaining since they were footing...
