J.Period x Michael Jackson
If you haven't heard of J. Period than you've been sleeping under a rock because his mixtapes are just out right, fanfuckintastic. I have the one he did for Lauren Hill and Q-Tip. And in honor of the King of Pop, J.Period gives us, "Man or the Music Tribute to Michael Jackson". Download it here free.

They're Heeerrreee!
Oldie But Goodie
I just got my Buns of Steel DVD in the mail today. So excited. I remember doing this vhs tape when I was in high school... and then vcrs became a thing of the past, and my tape was no more. But I found the dvd online and ordered it. There's nothing spectacular about any of the exercises, it's all 1980 leg lifts, but shoot, if all those women could wear high-waisted leotards, then I know they're doing something right. No thanks to the bf though who was laughing the whole time I was doing the video.
Get yours here

Lakers Parade
This past wed in Los Angeles was the Lakers Parade. I am so bummed I missed it but thanks to youtube, I was able to catch a few glimpses of what went down. Thankfully nobody acted a fool and started looting shit like they did the night they won the championship. Oh yeah, and to all the Laker Haters, F You!

Gina Marie
I caught this girl singing the national anthem tonight before the Lakers vs Magic game. I found out she's autistic. Her performance brought tears to my eyes. Go head, Mama!
I Hate This Commercial
The whole concept and beat of the commercial is fantastic, but I hate the fact that gatorade included the Jabbawockeez in it. Don't get me wrong, I think their dancing skills are flippin great, however they won one stupid MTV dance championship hosted by stupid AC Slater. They should NOT be included with such greats as Michael Jordan, Kevin Garnet, and whichever one of the Williams sisters that is shown (LOL). Again, don't misunderstand me, they're great dancers, but they still have shit to prove to me before they can even start to share the same stage as Michael Jordan.... but then again, that's just my opinion.

Fashion Against Aids
Some of the biggest celebrities from the world of fashion, music, and entertainment have teamed up with H&M and Designers Against Aids (DAA) for Fashion Against Aids, to help fight the disease and bring youth awareness. Katy Perry, Dita Von Teese, N.E.R.D, Cyndi Lauper, Estelle, Yelle, and Rhianna are among the artists who will collaborate with H&M to design T-shirts, and other clothing. 25% of sales will be donated to youth HIV/Aids awareness. The clothing comes in men and women's styles.
Check the website, it's a pretty dope layout.
Here are a few of my favorites:
p.s. don't pay attention to the pricing on the shirts. I must have copied pics from another country because the shirts are actually reasonably priced. $12.50 and up.

R.I.P Jake
Tuesday afternoon my mom and dad put the family dog to sleep. He had cancer that was spreading and he was unable to walk. It was so sad to watch especially knowing the kind of dog he once was. It wasn't an easy decision to make, but one that was necessary. I will miss him for as long as I live. Jake, you were the best dog ever and I will forever miss you.
Here are a few things that I will remember about you:
Playing hide-n-seek with Laura and me (seriously, we would hide and he would find us)
You afraid of the vacuum cleaner and ironing board....always running from them
Never wanting to go in the backyard to pee by yourself...you were so spoiled. I loved how I would tell you to go outside and you would lie on your back with your paws in the air because you knew I couldn't pick you up that way to put you outside.
How dad would ground you from the front yard after you would take off down the street to the neighbors house. What dog do you know that would get grounded?
I am going to miss how you would talk to me about your day.... (no, I'm not crazy, the dog would make moaning noises like he was talking).
Or when we would have people at the house and dad would yell at you to go lie down on your bed and you would go and pout in the corner and sigh the whole time.
Or when Laura and I would play fight with one another and which ever one of us that was getting "beat up" you would nibble and slobber on the arm of the attacker. It was so funny because it was like you were trying to defend whoever was getting their ass kicked. But you always made sure not to "bite" too hard. It was like you knew we were all playing.
I loved how when I would sleep over at the house and Laura and I would share the bed, you would jump between us and sleep with us, and then get so annoyed in the middle of the night because there was no room that you would go to the floor.
I'm gonna miss how Laura and I would run into her room with you following behind us and then we would try to hold the door shut on you so you couldn't get in, and you would whine and cry and push your way thru until you got in. It was like you always had to be around us.
I love when Laura and I would say the word, "Walk" or "Coffee" and you would get so damn excited that you would haul ass around the house and start jumping over the couch and then dad would yell at you to behave. He would always talk to you like you were a person.
Jake, you were one of my best friends, so loyal and kind. You will be missed my friend. Rest in peace, boy!
