Wassup! Wassup! Wassup everyone! It’s been a very long time since I last wrote ANYTHING remotely resembling a blog and for that I apologize. During my self-imposed, but not really, because I was too busy to catch you all up on what  I ‘ve been doing (sorry for the run on, but its kinda how my life has been). So I’m doing  radio on an actual radio station (I know, cool right)! Anyway, not to take away from my 7 years on BlogTalkRadio but I being on the air during Prime Time Drive Time – 5pm to 8pm, on Women Talk Radio , Friday’s was such a rush and a thrill for fulfilling a dream. From that show we transitioned to TELEVISION! Yes, you heard me right – television – I am so stoked!. The show is Women Talk Live and it airs Monday, Wednesday, and Friday on LaunchTV on DirectTV! Additionally, I have joined the land of Scoping…that is Periscope – a fun new way of getting Sassyism’s and thoughts out to you! That said, I wanted to get you up to speed on all of m...

I’ve been told by some men that I have met that I “think like a dude”, and that statement made me laugh, because I do have a “dudetality”. I am surrounded by women that have a “dudetality” and that’s alright! For those that don’t know me, I am outspoken and opinionated. I am very direct and at times I don’t have a filter between my brain and my tongue. I understand that it’s not what I say, but how I say it, however, I feel like people are coddled too damn much at times and they need to hear it straight with no chaser. Why pretty the words up or delay the blow? Some people try to play dumb and act like they don’t know and/or understand the words that are coming out of your mouth, especially if you’re being “nice” about it. Some people need to hear it in a rough manner in order for them to see the stupidity of their ways. For example…a few years ago I remember coming home and one of my sister’s girlfriends had stopped past for a visit. I did not care for this girl, so when I came in, I ...

Excerpt from forthcoming book... Sassy’s Rules of Dating 2009© SassyScribe (Saundra E. Harris) Saphari Books, Inc. The first rule of dating is to go on the date with no expectations. We as women set ourselves up when we go on a date with this mindset. Keep an open mind. Be charming and friendly. Do not send a representative in your stead, be your self, because any act or sham will come out later. Again this is something that took me four years to learn. When I date, I go on the date with one expectation, and that is to have fun. I enjoy the food, the conversation, the laughter, or whatever it is he has planned for the evening. Even if there is no love connection, I have opened up my life to a possible new acquaintance. There are some tried and true questions that one should ask on a date, most especially a first date. Truth be told, some questions should’ve been asked in advance. I firmly believe that when you meet a person, you can find out some things in the first twenty minutes o...

This past weekend I had a B L A S T! It was the 30th anniversary of my families Crab Feast and this year it was bananas! First my brother Billy, my sister-in-law Maria, and my niece NaTasha, came home from Missouri for their annual visit. In addition to that, my nephew Chago and his girl flew in from Iraq (they work for Halliburton) and this weekend was a huge family event. Now for the CRAB FEAST.... Besides the fact that there were over 980 people in attendance. The DJ was off the hook! Then there was the all of the extra little added touches of the day that made it that much more interesting. Let me begin with the fact that I made 485 Jell-O Shooters for my section to ensure that at least everyone had one...then I knew I had to look good I knew that there were a few people there that came specifically to see me. And just as I thought they looked good, I know I looked just as good to them...(careful Sass, you're hubris is showing)...sorry, I had to check myself, but its true. I lo...

Sorry guys...I know its been a while since my last post, but I have been busy and rushed off of my feet. I am in the process of acclimating myself with my new job AND I am also trying to tie up the final chapters to my sophomore novel. However, let me catch you up to speed... In my last post I told everyone that I was going to my 20th High School Reunion and I had a blast. I was able to catch up with some old friends and to make some new ones. My class was/is majority white, there were only 7 blacks in attendance, but that did not matter. The only downside to my night, was the fact that it was not open bar. That's right, it was a cash bar and the tickets were $125/couple and it only came with one drink!!!! I was disturbed, but never fear, my old high school chums came through with the cash bar, I didn't have to go out of pocket. My new friend {He is a private person so I won't name him} was very debonair in his black suit and contrasting tie to match my black cocktail dress...

WOW! Hard to believe that on July 9th of this year I will be celebrating my 20th High School Reunion. I am so physched and geeked out on this, that its crazy. No its not, I'm excited to see old faces with new or not so new bodies...it should be a blast. Its going to be in Annapolis at the Sheraton and I am really looking forward to being there. The problem I have is that we are having a problem getting people to respond and/or cough up the dough. Now I am not independently wealthy, nor do I have the families that others have, but I find it hard to believe that they can't find the money for a memorable event such as this. Am I wrong for thinking this? Hell, we are damn near 40-years old---its time for people to get it together. I too have money issues, robbing peter to pay paul, but I budgeted my money so that I could attend this moment in my life.

Yes, that's right y'all, I am now amongst the land of the working class. As of July 11th I will be a member of an organization in Rockville, MD, thanks to one of my best friends. DEE! Yes, that's right, SassyScribe is working a full-time in addition to writing full time, and updating this site, full time... I'm so excited that I think the exploits of my new working day will make great food for fodder!

I have been unemployed since the end of May and trust that the boredom has set in. Boredom I hate this word because boring people are boring. I'm not boring, just tired of having the same routine. Now this wouldn't be a bad thing if I was independantly wealthy, but alas I'm not. Recently, I hired a job coach, to help me develop my interviewing skills as well as creating the hottest resume and cover letter for me. I also went on a couple of interviews and I felt confident going into both of them...now its the wait and see. Since 1998, I've worked for temporary agencies, which at that time was perfect because I was concentrating on my studies and finalizing my freshman novel "THE PARTY". Now that I've graduated with a BS in BM {that is not a bull shit degree in Bowel Movements} it is a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Management, I am hard on the job hunt. This temporary shit is not for me anymore. Hell, I thought getting my degree would help a little,...

Phew! I don't know about the rest of y'all but my azz bores easily. Especially now that summer is here, there are so many things to see and do during the summer. There's AFRAM, ArtScape, and the Book Festival, Seafood Festivals, Wine Festivals, etc...I mean there is so much to do and so little time. In 3 short months these events will be over and the cooler weather will move in. In the meantime the ladies and I are trying to get our bodies into shape. Yeah, we waited until the summer was here before we did this. We had all winter to get it right, but no, we waited until now. We have started doing the latest in exercise craze- Exotic Dance Aerobics. I absolutely LOVE IT! I mean its not exercise, its a way to take your freakiness to the next level. Hell, we are learning exotic dance moves...moves that should hopefully move any man to the next level of enjoyment. No need to go and get that lap dance from Norma Jeans or the Foxy Lady- they can now get one at home. Oh wait, th...

Have you ever wondered what you were going to be when you grew up? I used to say that I wanted to be a lawyer, because I love to debate topics, issues, and situations. But instead as I grew older my career path changed. Over the past eighteen years, I've worked in thankless, meaningless jobs, with little and/or not authority. I was unable to affect and create change. They were all dead end jobs. Since 1998, I've worked in temporary positons, and here I am again, finding myself without a job. The problem is I know what I want to do, I just don't have the resources to do. My dream is to own and operate my own bookstore. Sounds geeky and corny, but its what I want, its what I am most passionate about. Reading, writing, and all things literary! In an effort to get that accomplished, I wrote and self published my first maintstream multicultural fiction novel entitled "THE PARTY". It is published by Saphari Books, Inc., a small press company on the East Coast {www.sapha...

Hello World... Welcome to Xcapades of THE GIRLZ...! Here is where I will share {with their permission} the lives and xcapades of myself and my girlfriendz. All of us are in our mid to late thirties, some married with kids- some not. All of us are voluptuous women with wicked senses of humor, cutting edge wit with the ability to talk smack to any and all that we encounter. Many people find us to be the life of every party that we attend. As a matter of fact we are always invited to every event...I mean what's a party without THE GIRLZ. They need us to make their lives more fulfilled. We talk the shit that others don't. We can carry our own in any conversation, which is why we're at the top of the party list. Back in the day people thought we were lesbian because we were together so much, but trust and recognize that all of us are STRICTLY DICKLY! I want to start off by telling you a little about myself---I'm a thirty-something female on the east coast in the THICK of the...
