As much as she annoys me...


How great is this?! Forbes just published their list of "Prime-Time TV's 20 Top-Earning Women" and guess who's #1, numero uno?? None other than TYRA BANKS! She made $23 million during the year-long period and much to my surprise, she's also working on the upcoming show for CW "Stylista" which I'm actually sorta excited about (it's like Devil Wears Prada meets prime-time and competition). Congrats to Tyra and congrats to the strides for black women. First Oprah is named the most successful for ALL of entertainment and now this. It's  a pivotal time for those willing not to settle and keep striving. Keep it up dreamers...you'll get there...

I'm blunt...and rather observant...DUH that means I should blog! I suffer from, no let me rephrase, I combat living with an AVM on a daily basis. An AVM is an Abnormal Veinous Malformation which affects about 250,000 people in the US (http://www.cumc.columbia.edu/dept/cerebro/AVM.htm#Link8). It affects everyone differently, for me it's caused a constant headache since 2003...litterally. I've been in countless doctors offices, been poked and proded, been through the emotions of being misdiagnosed with a brain tumor. Needless to say, I've been through a lot and not just because of my...let's call it an ailment. Above all I've developed a less than common outlook on life and perception of things.Don't for one minute misconstrue, I'm in no way a victim, I'm self-sufficient almost to a fault and encourage others to turn their weaknesses into empowerment. It builds character and makes for one hell of a screenplay ha! That combined with growing up immersed in a semi-charmed world, and the glitz and glamour of Hollyweird leads to some interesting anecdotes...Here are my thoughts...

There are many other Headcases in the world...here are a few..
