Friday Files: My $30 Pizza, Broken Temple, and White Lotus Therapy”


“Friday Files: My $30 Pizza, Broken Temple, and White Lotus Therapy”


Just another Friday? Not quite. From tech trouble and pizza regrets to The White Lotus escape I didn’t know I needed—this blog post is full of shade, drama, and deliciously petty vibe




It’s Friday. And no, nothing groundbreaking happened. No surprise money in my account. No steamy text from a long-lost crush. Just another week of me versus the universe… and the universe is still winning.

Let’s start with the temple—by temple, I mean my email, my ebooks, and my blog post drafts. Nothing was working right. My email froze like it was stuck in 2004 dial-up hell, my ebooks wouldn’t upload, and don’t even get me started on trying to schedule blog posts. It’s like Mercury retrograde showed up fashionably late and brought a broke laptop as its plus-one.

So I gave up. I did what any stressed-out digital hustler would do—I ordered pizza. Not just one, but two medium pizzas and a box of brownies. Yes, it was $30. Don’t ask. The receipt made me flinch. The price was giving “bougie budget betrayal.” And let’s be clear: it wasn’t gourmet, it wasn’t artisan—it was basic. Cheesy, greasy, and now I’m paying for it... literally and physically. My stomach been side-eyeing me all day like, “Really? That’s what we’re doing now?”

As I sat in my carb coma, I finally pressed play on The White Lotus. Whew, baby. Rich people drama? Passive-aggressive glances? Mysterious shade with a side of scandal? YES PLEASE. I needed that escape. It was the one thing that didn’t glitch or guilt-trip me this week. And honestly, I see why people binge it—every episode felt like brunch with rich frenemies who secretly hate each other. Delicious.

So yeah. It’s Friday. Nothing big happened. But somehow, between my busted tech, my bougie pizza bill, and watching spoiled tourists spiral in paradise… I made it.

Lesson of the week?
The temple might be broken, the brownies overpriced, but I’m still here. Shady, full, and semi-satisfied.


Question for you:
What did you spend too much money on this week that made you roll your eyes after?

🍿 Once Upon a Time in Beverly Hills (minus some ladies)

🍿 Once Upon a Time in Beverly Hills (minus some ladies) RHOBH used to be about glitz, glam, drama, and personalities with something to lose — or gain. At its peak, it had chaotic friendships, sparkling wardrobes, back-room blowups, and a twisted sense of loyalty. But lately? It’s beginning to feel less like “Real Housewives” and more like “Real House-of-Cards.” And this season — with the exit of Garcelle Beauvais — might just prove it. Garcelle wasn’t just another cast member. She was one of the few who seemed to bring a bit of heart and a dash of backbone to the chaos. And yet — after five seasons — she walked. Dramatically. Without a reunion photo. Without apologies. Saying bluntly, “I’m done.” Sweetheart, same. So yes — I’m done too. 🔥 Why I’m Ready to Drop the “Housewives” Label 1. Loyalty isn’t a thing anymore — it’s a sales pitch It used to be that friendships on RHOBH were messy and flawed but lived-in. Back-stage back-ups, side alliances, shady calls, bu...

Reality TV, Redemption & Receipts: What Are You Signing Up For?

Reality TV, Redemption & Receipts: What Are You Signing Up For? When you say yes to reality TV, what are you really saying yes to? Former two-time America’s Next Top Model contestant Lisa D'Amato is speaking out ahead of the Netflix documentary Reality Check: Inside America’s Next Top Model, and baby… it’s giving unfinished business. And if you’re someone dreaming of going on reality TV (and I know you love writing about reality shows and how to get cast 👀), this conversation matters. Let’s break this down — and ask the real questions. Why Watch the Documentary at All? Lisa says she’ll be watching the Netflix documentary — but not for nostalgia. She wants to see how the experiences are edited. That word right there: edited. Because when you film a reality show, you don’t own the narrative. The producers do. She’s concerned the stories may be “softened.” That trauma might be packaged neatly. That accountability might feel… polished. So here’s the first question: 👉 ...
