Happy International Women’s Day! I want to take a minute to honor all of the women that I know and all of the women that I have known.  I love women ( and don’t be a smart ass here, we all know I am a lesbian…you ain’t gotta take us there) Women to me areContinue reading “I Got All My Sistah’s With ME!”
