I bounced out of work at 8.30pish tonight. Truth be told, that's actually relatively early for a week that we're closing an issue. The reason? Nothing fab, I assure you. Nope. Try a damn tornado watch on for size.Mind you, it's not like I've never lived through tropical storm and hurricane alerts back in NYC. But I gotta tell you, this Midwest weather nonsense is FORREAL. I'm talking thick ass

It seems like everywhere I turn, folks want to know how I like living in Chicago.Unfortunately, I still haven't had an opportunity to do much living- unless you count the 7 min walk from my apt to the office. And yes, I do mean exactly 7 minutes. 'Cause if I learned nothing else in NYC, I certainly learned how to speed walk my ass off when I oversleep in the morning. Werd.*kanye shrug*But on an

So my very 1st issue officially hits the streets at the end of this week- WOO HOO!!READ: Don't walk, RUN to your local supermarket, magazine stand, wherever you can find it and cop a copy of the issue with Garcelle Beauvais on the cover IMMEDIATELY.And please don't think I put Garcelle on the cover just because she has flawless skin and a new show coming out.

Has it really been a month since my last post? Good grief, life is FLYING.To quickly bring you guys up to speed on what's happened since I last checked in:1) I cut my hair- yes, even shorter.2) I packed up and moved my entire life to Chicago.3) I purchased my first flat screen TV. Don't judge me.4) I closed my very first issue of JET Magazine. It hits newsstands nationwide on June 6th.5) One of

So as you may have noticed, I've been a little M.I.A from the blog lately.... my bad. BUT as you may have heard by now, it was for a very, very, very good reason.*clears throat and stands up to every inch of my five feet*I am so excited to announce that after five WONDERFUL years of self-employment...

Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economyHmm... spent all day yesterday getting ready for and barely making my flight to Chicago so it wasn't until this morning that I heard all the hoopla about the air traffic controller who fell asleep on the job while a plane with a sick patient was trying to land.Dude, as if flying isn't scary enough. Oh and, this makes what?

Random: Has anyone tried these Insanity workout DVDs?Flipping through the channels over weekend and happened upon the crazy looking info-mercial. And I was INSTANTLY intrigued. Cause the Lord knows, my relationship with the gym has recently become sketchy at best. I just can't stand the smell, the machines are either occupied or broken and the person working out next to me ALWAYS seems to be

I just finished reading the details on the burqa veil ban that takes affect in France today. Hmmm. I must say, I'm consistently amazed by how deeply the threat of terrorism has changed in the world in the past 10 years. The international level of unabashed fear and intolerance has hit an all time high and continues to rise. And not for nothing, it's really sad and unsettling.Don't get me wrong,

Finally had a chance to check out Jay-Z's new website/online magazine/media portal, Life And Times that launched on Monday.Hmmm. The promo vid is crazy. (see for yourself HERE)Visually, the site is amazing. Like absolutely LOVE. Content reads very much like a compilation of "All Things Jay-Z Likes (& You Can't Afford)." Which is um... yeah. LOL.Interesting piece on boxer Andre Berto tho.

So the headline on the article related to this god awful photo reads:Kevin Federline Debuts Girlfriend's Baby BumpIn light of what a filthy, tub of lard K-Fed has become, am I the only one who thinks it would've been damn near as accurate (and way funnier) to say:Kevin Federline Debuts Baby Bump*barely smothers a giggle*I'm jussayin.

Because I for one, COMPLETELY agree.For those who didn't read the article, here are some of the changes that will be going into effect today:-no eavesdropping btwn cubicles-no overbearing perfumes-no displays, photos or signs

So about this reality show fights montage the Daily News compiled... Um yeah.

WAYMENT, what in the slew-footed hell happened to Britney Spears' rhythm?? Granted, I'd read the rumblings on Twitter about the GMA performance being a little shakey bakey but I charged that on the time of the day.

Hmm, so I was listening to the radio this morning and Snoop was on air promoting his new album, Doggumentary. And truth be told, I didn't even know Snoop had a new song out let alone an entire album.At first, I felt badly. I thought to myself, "DAYUM I'm getting old. I mean, how can I not know when a new Snoop album is dropping??" So naturally, I immediately google the first (and apparently,
