Friday Freestyles: Frickin' Chicken. Silver Sparrow Giveaway

The other day, I had a nice soy hotdog on a wheat bun with black bean soy chili on top...

I sat it down on my desk. I went to the breakroom for paper towels.

When I returned, Lil' Serenity Chicken was standing there. Staring at my hot dog...

Frickin' Chicken.

Humph.

I don't know if she was eyeing that hot dog or the fruit, but she was one step from getting backhanded up and out of the cubicle area...

Frickin' Chicken.

I love Now or Laters. We called them "Nawl Latas" when I was a child.

I found those at a local Chinese restaurant.

But lo and behold, here comes Lil' Serenity... I caught her trying to make off with my Now or Laters.



Frickin' Chicken. Trying to make off with my candy! Even balancing the cherry flavored ones on top of her scarfed head. Knocked her over for that. Put her back over on top of the laptop, where she belongs, where she can guard the cubicle like she suppose to be doing.

Then the ultimate infraction occurred... ULTIMATE.

Lil' Serenity followed me home. I woke up early that morning to find her perched in the dining room... staring at me.



Frickin' Chicken was trying to either steal my new bombastic laptop speakers...

OR she was trying to steal my copy of Tayari Jones' Silver Sparrow.

*crickets*

*LadyLee proceeds to beat the cheese out of Lil' Serenity Chicken... then heats up HAWT grease and considers frying her up for dinner*

Lil' Serenity Chicken!

You can have my hot dog!
You can have my fruits!
You can even have my bombastic speakers.

But you CANNOT have my personally autographed copy of Silver Sparrow.

NERP!

You can't even have the TEN signed copies of Silver Sparrow that I'm giving away!

That's right:

TEN!!!

For those are in the laundry room, behind closed doors. They are sitting atop the washing machine, next to neatly folded washclothes...

And That Original Oldcat Oscar Tyrone is guarding them...



And he's hongry! Because I haven't fed him in a few days, so he WANTS you to try something, Lil' Serenity Chicken... He WANTS you to try something.

He will eat you! Red Polkadot scarf and all! Eat you alive!

LOL!!!

Yeah, Mon... Ten copies of the Sparrow...

I think I may be late on this one... Seems like EVERBODY got the book already!

That's alright!

Win a SIGNED copy. Give your copy away to somebody. Be a blessing, honey!

You don't know how much the gift card is for. Last one was for $40 at the store of your choice. Blogger Chele won that one. She received a Target gift card, and she is STILL twirling 'round and 'round in her living room like Wonder Woman listening to the lovely Ipod shuffle she purchased.

*watching as Chele twirls herself dizzy*

So enter to win...

Why am I doing this? To support ol' Tayari...

I was in on this book when she was working on it... There were numerous discussions between us about it. I just remember the whole process, from seed to manisfestation!

Man, I wanted to write that chick a check when she was here. Put it in her personal offering plate! I love being around to witness something so special happen, with all it's trials, tribulations and triumphs!

I want to be a blessing to my friend, ya'll!

And shoot man... It's a TERRIFIC book!!! Tayari is the baddest writin' Diva in the Solar System!

Ya'll have a GREAT weekend!

On purpose!!!
