Yo, is she like a disco dyke!?!

I cut all my hair off. I am now rocking what Nichelle Newsletter aptly described at Sunday Grrl Brunch as the Single Black Female style. Part butch/part pixie- I like it. Sax likes it. His ex-gf who stayed with us this weekend liked it too. She rocks the part butch/part pixie style too which she buzzes herself of course cuz she's an artist and wears flannel shirts to bars instead of pearls and blue eyeshadow like us New York bohemians do... I think New York style is more stylized than LA style where the ex-gf resides... where Sax is from too.

Lex: Is she like a disco dyke?

Sax: I don't know. You want me to ask her?

What Lex meant was 'frisco dyke as in the Snoop song but whatever. She asked me this at Planet Rose on Friday just before we brought the house down with our rendition of Rebel Rebel by David Bowie. Then we tore the roof off again with Say It Aint So by Weezer.

Sax was a total ham stealing the mic away from me, rapping to the songs while Lex and I put our bare feet on him causing him to sport a semi for most of the night. The ex-gf just sat there like a sad sack. That place wasn't her bag and her $6 Sierra Nevada solidified that. We went to Orchard Bar afterwards which was dancing time fun.

I confronted him on Sunday.

Yummicoco: Why did you take the mic away from me?

Sax: Cuz your pitch was off.

I guess he takes Kareoke (sp?) seriously.

After Sunday Grrl Brunch, Aeki Tuesday talked me down from buying a $99 sweater from Club Monaco but did not discourage me from buying a $76 10k goldplated nameplate from some ghetto place on Delancey for which I left a $10 deposit. Go figure. We had a great shopping day in Soho filled with sneakers, brown dresses and an army hat to match my new disco dyke look.

Anyway, got to get back to work. The ex-gf left this morning with Sax. I was the most trusting girlfriend this weekend even though I did have bouts of insecurity. She's an artist. They have a history... But I am way cuter.

Sax: Fuck ya. You're beautiful.

hey yummi,
i just had to jump on this piece of nineties music trivia...isn't 'frisco dyke'from the song dre and snoop were dissing easy e. i think they called his mom a 'frisco dyke' or something. i can't remember the song name but i can picture the video. they were in some warehouse partying. -cc*

I love your new 'do.

cc* is right. Snoop says the line but it's from "Fuck Wit Dre Day" off The Chronic. And he's talking about Tim Dogg's momma.

That's the extent of my hardcore rap knowledge.

no I think its from G thang. there is a moment where a fake easy e gets it from behind in a warehouse-there is some party going on- and a hot hoochie get sprayed with 40s much to her chagrin.

I am listening to death from above 1979- have not gotten tired of it.

those are two different videos -- ; the girl getting sprayed is "G Thang" but easy e getting it from behind is from "Wit Dre Day", aka my favorite video of the 90s. I remember it well.
