Without Further Ado

So... hey! *insert hand-waving emoji in the brown shade*

After hesitantly conversing about the concept of this blog-website-online journal-portfolio-curation station for months with my dearest friends, feuding with my family about the name (an epic debate of denotation vs connotation of said word: warn) it is finally here despite the 72-DAY setback - let us just pretend it's January. I can go on and on about the culmination of fury with the confusion of wordpress.com versus wordpress.org and domain hosting that concluded in my decision to say p h u c k  it but I'll graciously spare you all.

 

Many thanks to squarespace for saving my soul.

I'm currently on a plane at DTW anxiously awaiting to land at LGA.

Cue: Empire State of Mind

Once again I've over packed for a five-day adventure, so much for trying to complete a carry-on challenge! My flight was delayed {1.5 hours}, then the plane had to be 'de-iced' on the tarmac {25 minutes}, then we had to return to the gate because of nonexistent issues with the breaks {1 hour} - S/O American Airlines & Murphy's Law. Initially my face was filled with disdain - any other eager jet setter would share these sentiments - but now I'm grateful because the inconvenient delay has turned into a convenient solution to writer's block.

 

Bear with me (all fortified fourteen of my readers: Adetayo, Alana, Alexis, Ameera, Avii, Carissa, Carrie, Dailyn, DaliaJasmyne, NiyahStephon, Tazjaye, & Tyrell) and hold tight, we're in for the most EPIC of quests :)
