Black Bean Burgers and Ghosting

Hey guys it's been awhile! Sorry, y'all know how life is sometimes it comes at you fast and other times it's a slow crawl! Life has been crazy for me lately! Not in a bad way, but everything has been falling into place! Anyway y'all know I changed my diet and I'm vegetarian! In a year or two I would really like to go vegan, but it's going to be a slow transition! The main reason why I changed my diet is because of my fibroids, and  I had my first cycle on the new diet and new medicine I'm taking, and there has been no change so far.... I'm hoping next month will be different! I did make the decision to go through with a less invasive procedure to stop the fibroids all together! That won't be until next year though! So lately I had been craving a burger! Don't get me wrong I liked steak, and chicken, and all that other stuff lol, but for me  burgers are my jam! So I bought some fake meat options from Whole Foods to try out! The first was beyond me

Leave your past in the past!

So far October has been good to me! A couple of months ago though I did a massive reboot! I went through my contacts and I deleted and blocked a lot of men that I will call users. These men would call when they needed advice  about things going on in their lives, and like the awesome person I am I was there, but it was draining.... The problem came when I needed some advice it would take weeks or even months for me to get a response from these "men".  Well I got tired of it! So I blocked and deleted every one of them. I didn't feel bad, and I still don't. I did what was best for Fallon. Anyway things were going great, until a couple of days ago.... One guy in particular I really really liked ! Like had a major crush on him even when I was with my horrible ex! Anyway he would do things like call me everyday before work at like 5 am and we would talk on my way to work, and when I got to work because my store  doesn't open until 8. We would talk like this everyday ev

Sick Girls Club

Hey guys I guess I'll get right into it! I want you guys to understand this isn't easy for me to talk about, but if my story can help someone else I want to do that. For over a year now I've been having horrible periods. When I say I have horrible periods I don't mean I just have a couple of hard days. My periods are so heavy that I go through four or five boxes of tampons in four days. I get sick. I'm nauseous, I have the worse migraines I've ever experienced in my life, and because I'm losing so much blood I'm very weak. I barely eat, and my life revolves around my periods. If I cancel plans it's because I'm on my period. The cramps I have during my periods are so bad I've gotten dizzy and almost passed out from the pain. I can barely work because I go to the restroom every 20 minutes during an 8 hour shift. I've gone to so many doctors..... My first doctor tried to tell me it's because I need to lose weight. This doctor didn't

Autumn is here/ Short blog day

Hey guys Autumn is officially here! That literally means nothing in terms of weather in Louisiana! Y'all know I'm not lying it's still hot as hell at least until October! God, I can't wait until October! I'm so excited for all the decorations, creepy costumes, and horror movie marathons! I don't know about you all, but for me autumn has always been a time of heavy reflection, and rest! This has been one busy year for me so far, and I'm looking forward to a little bit of a slow down! I'm so thankful for all the new friends I've made this year so far, and all the lessons I've learned. What are some things you guys reflect on during this time?  What does autumn mean to you? I have friends all over this great big world, and I've been trying to understand how they feel about autumn! A lot of them feel the same way as I do! Autumn is such a magical time, easy days and cool nights! Are you guys going to any Halloween parties this year? I know I am!

Retrograde Uber Nights Part Two

Alright guys I know y'all are ready for the second part so lets get into it! Well I get dropped off at Pal's, and I end up having a nice chill night with my friends! I meet a couple of great people, and we just have an all around fun evening. This is when shit gets real, I have to call uber to get home because again I'm exhausted, and as I mentioned before I have work for 6 a.m. the next morning! I contact uber, and they tell me my ride is on the way! I have enough time to give hugs, say goodbyes, and all that jazz. My uber arrives, and this time its a younger woman. So I'm like ok this will be a chill ride home. She's playing some old school r&b, and I'm feeling relaxed.... We start talking, and she starts telling me I'm her last rider of the night because she lives on the west bank, and she's ready to go especially after her last riders... So I'm like girl what happened? She tells me this story of how it was a couple and they were sooooo dr

Retrograde Uber Nights Part One

Hey guys! Wooo honey its been awhile! I'm getting back into the swing of things! So you know I have to come back hard with a story! So sit back, and relax, and listen to what happened to me one crazy retrograde uber night! So one of my very awesome friends invites me to a birthday get together they are having for one of her friends. This shindig was taking place at Pal's in mid city. Very cool place might I add! Lately, I've been doing all kinds of things to get me out of my comfort zone, and man I've been having the time of my life! Well anyway that night because I'm a crazy Pisces woman who reads her horoscope diligently everyday, don't judge me! My horoscope said something along  the lines of this..... Mercury is about to fuck your night up don't go out.... I'm not lying that's what it said. ANYWAY usually I'm all about reevaluating plans if the stars have weird signs... again don't judge me! This night I was like I'm willing to live

Taking a break, staying positive, and being kind

Hey guys! I know it's been awhile, but I needed a little social media break. I follow so many different people on several different social media accounts for so many different things, but I think in this day and age we all do! Well I needed a break! I love seeing everyone's adventures, but man it was draining on me to constantly be "ready" at all times to take pictures. I have days that I don't wear makeup and I lounge around in yoga pants and drink wine with my friends. Other days I'm a 1950's screen queen. Never apologize for needing to take care of yourself! For a couple of years now, I've been having horrible periods. I've seen a couple different doctors and have had two different procedures to help, but nothing has helped. I have a new doctor now, and she seems determined to figure out what the problem is, and I'm excited!  I say this to say you guys would never have known that I'm part of the "sick girl's club" if I wo
