CONVERSATIONS WEEK

Alright now...

Especially you inhabitants of lurk city... the ones who like to hang out on the front porch of the House of LadyLee and not say a word.

This week is a food-for-thought week, for the most part.

I wanted to have a week of only food-for-thought, but that's not going to happen. I have TOO many posts, some of which aren't related to powerful or disturbing conversations I've had lately. I don't want to wait to post that stuff, so I will spread it out until the end of the month - June 30th.

I've even had 2 powerful conversations this morning, both of which have me O_O. So I know I will have a LOT of stuff to post.

Now, here's the good news for you, dear reader...

We're kicking out a "Lurk City Sweepstakes" here at the House of LadyLee:

I'm giving away 2 giftcards:

One for $75.

Another for $25.

Why? Because ya'll some lurkers. And that's alright. I'm not a comment whore or anything.

I just figure that if you take TIME out of your day to read, well, you might as well get rewarded for it.

Yes you take TIME to read. And you can't get your TIME back.

TIME is everything.

So I like to do giveaways sometimes.

Details: the person with the highest number of comments gets the $25 gift card. The $75 gift card will be from a drawing.

I don't do my own drawings. I have hired someone to do my drawings. And he's been doing them for the past couple of years.

My coworker, the good Lieutennant Commander By. He is legit and he is better than the firms that the Oscars and all those other award shows use.




Yes, he is a military man, under the command of the Sur.geon General, highly trained in the art of logistics, public health, undercover forensics, and hand-to-hand combat. If an alien drops down from outerspace and walk up in this building, I'm gonna stand behind him. He will take the sucker out.  Then he will proceed to steal and process that sucker's spaceship.

*alien stomps down the hall screaming GRRRRHHHHHHHH RAAHHHH and spitting hard*

"LadyLee, hand me my grenades and my flame thrower!!!"

*ladylee handing the Lt. Comm By his weapons of choice*

Yes indeed. He is better than Rambo could ever hope to be.

And of course, he takes this part time job of pulling names from a cup very seriously. His wife makes sure his nails are cleaned and his hands are well lotioned.

Because she know us sistas can't stand no ashy rusty-tailed negro.

No indeed.

So he will pull names and do the bootleg certification (write the prize on the back of the pulled nams).

If you win, your gift card can be from anywhere you choose. Most choose Wal-mart or Target. If you're a freak, you can choose that Fredrick's of Hollywood. Whatever you like. I don't judge you for being the freak of the week. No ma'am.

Now if you're a druggie or a J (junkie), I won't be sending you cash. And I don't think the dealers in my hood give out gift cards. You have to work that out on your own. Perhaps you can win the Wal-mart card and then buy something and sell it.

Several people have won big ticket gift cards here at the House of LadyLee... Sasha, Southern Black Gal, Chele... and a few more of ya'll. So I'm legit.

You can comment here (which is preferred), hit up my email (gmail, gub'ment, whatever), or send me a text message (as some of you who have my cell number prefer to do). Makes no difference. Just comment in some way or fashion to win.

Alright. Those are the rules.

Old readers understand the rules all too well...

New readers better figure it out and work it out if they can!

Any which way, get in where you fit in, honey child!

Stay tuned for Conversations week.
