Creative Entity. Wordsmith. LAUGHTER YOGA TEACHER. Grateful. Culturally a foolhardy mix of southern gentility, northern invincibility, and island audacity.

@NestleUSA Just opened a can of evaporated milk (doesn't expire until Jan 3, 2026). The liquid inside is clear and has bugs and things floating in it! 🤢😧😮

Excited for owner Nikki Jackson-Sagirius opening Divine Luxury Spa in Round Rock TX, offering skin care and waxing. (Coming soon infrared sauna.) The space is so fabulous (I'd expect nothing less. Her attention to detail and quality, and support of other businesses is noteworthy)

@sproutsfm How long does it take to get a product ingredient list (so that a customer is able to check for a known allergen)? Asking for a friend.

@Toyota @safelite Right glass, wrong color. The auto glass replacement saga continues... @safelite

All I want for Christmas is glass for my vehicle after a fall hail storm: a bad @Toyota and @Safelite customer service and communications epic tale. #Prius #ATX

@Toyota @safelite So in my holiday song remix, All I want for Christmas are car windows.

Now this has me dreaming of a classical music album by Flavor Flav.

My first reaction to the New Blue Sun album by Andre 3000:

"Ah, we get to appreciate the source and not just the sample. He allowed himself to complete his musical thoughts."

[Simone M Barnes @simonemonique]

I hope Andre gets to enjoy being Andre. Beats and bars are wonderful things in music. The beautiful thing about hip hop is that it is multilayered, drawing from so many sources. Let us enjoy the fullness and the full spectrum of his musicianship.
