Interesting! I’ll check it out!

I’ll check that cream out. Thanks!

Thank you so much for your kind words. I really appreciate it, and I’m glad the story was helpful.

I’m glad it was helpful. I know it was helpful for me to write it.

No problem! I’m glad you found this helpful.

Aw, thank you for all your support!

Aw, thanks, Monique! If I don’t die from this darn cold/flu/super virus currently running through my body, I’ll be so happy to see you and thank you for these kind words in person next month!

OMG I’m crying, Michael. This section took me out:

OMG! OMG! I died. I’m dead. You killed me.

I watched for 26 minutes! It was still going!

Hey Maraleia!

It’s weird. Hollywood and Vi on Queen Sugar don’t bother me at all, (maybe because Hollywood doesn’t look young to me, but Shades does, I dunno) which is why I was so surprised I was conflicted about this. Like, I wanted it to happen, but when it happened I was like “This ... this is a lot,” and found myself…

I wanted them to get together! I was just surprised at my own reaction after wanting it. If it helps, I’m often surprised by May-December pairings regardless of race or gender. It was more that I didn’t know how to feel more than anything and was surprised by my grade school reaction to it. Regardless, I COULD NOT…

I loved it! Great twist!

That’s a testament to how good both actors were. You really believed it. Making it all the more real!

If it was an old man with a younger woman I’d still be kind of freaked out. I’m forever grossed out by old man, young woman pairings forced on me by Hollywood. This was just a weird thing where this was something I wanted (I clearly asked my friend if they got together because I wanted them to get together), but when…

I thinks she’s clearly playing a character that’s supposed to be in her 50s, (Shades on the show is 40 and Theo Rossi is 43 in real life) but Alfre Woodard is actually 65 years old.

Yes I do lol!

Aaaand that’s a wrap. We survived another crazy, fun, weird, wild and unpredictably bonkers BET Awards that had everything.  From "stay woke" to literally taking folks to church. It was nuts! Catch y'all next year even though we'll never know who the female rap artist of the year was!
