I HAVE RETURNED!

It's me - the blogger formally known as Pillow Talk Is Extra (God, I still love that name - RIP), also known as Cleopatra Jones. It feels SO good to be back on Blogger, after an ill-advised switch to Tumblr for a hot minute, and a mini-meltdown over whether or not I wanted to continue writing. During that time, I've learned that writing and blogging is in my soul. It is what helps me process my shit, and I greatly enjoy sharing the intimate details of my life with the interwebz. However, I can't do that on a Tumblr account that has my photos and name on it. So I am back, in a new incarnation to spread foolishness and poor decision-making to the masses.

For those of you who don't get the reference, my new blog title comes from a sketch on my all-time favorite TV show, The Chappelle Show (RIP to that, too!) - The Racial Draft. It's also a fairly apt description of me - black girl T&A with a pristine criminal record. Maybe that's why all these white boys wanna holler at me? Anyhow, I'm ready to start writing on the (semi) daily, and there have been a lot of updates since I've been gone.

1. I went to Europe for a month. Had a steamy hookup with a hot 23 year old Italian pilot. Highlight of my life thus far!
2. I lost all motivation to do work - basically, I'm in the middle of a real career crisis and I'm not sure what's going to come out of it. It's scary. I'm scared. AHH!
3. I had a lovely NYC New Year's Eve with some of my favorite people (old friends and new!)
4. I declared 2014 the Year of Fun #YOF
5. I had *another* pulmonary embolism. Multiple actually, complete with Lung Death! Yeahhhh... fun... more on that to come...
6. I learned that sometimes you gotta keep a flirtation at just that and not try to advance it in any way, shape or form. So much maturity!

So yeah... I'll keep posting and hopefully people will start reading. I've missed you all!
