AOL: FUNKYBROWNCHICK.com on list of “Best Blogs”
Holy fucking shit! I just got an email from AOL. Naturally, I assumed it was spam or something like that. “Why,” I wondered, “would AOL contact me?” Well, it turns out they placed my site, FUNKYBROWNCHICK.com, on their AOL Blackvoices “The Best of Black Blogs” list currently available here. Wow. I don’t know what to say. “We search through the best black blogs and other great sites to bring you the hottest one-liners about African-American celebrity gossip and important social issues.” D-Listed’s post about Keshia Knight Pulliam (Rudy Huxtable), NPR News and Views writings Tavis quitting Tom Joyner Morning Show, Perez Hilton’s post about Rihanna’s back tat, Young, Black and Fabulous, the Best Week Ever Blog, Huffington Post, Racialicious, Afrobella and the guest list goes on. All of my favorite blogs were there, and I feel ridiculously honored that my funky brown chick commentary about Blasians was invited to the online party. Big, drippy kisses and THANKS go out to everyone at AOL Blackvoices.
Read the original post: Everyone ♥’s an Asian Boy. Heads up, my sweeties. I’ve got a special Manly Monday planned for May 5th, the first Monday of Asian Pacific American Heritage Month. (Sidenote: Psssst! Smooches to the folks over at Viddler for posting the dating & wine rendezvous with Gary Vaynerchuk on their “The Red Carpet” collection of videos.)

See there? First a ‘guest star’ spot and now AOL. I’m telling you, Stephen Colbert is only a matter of time!

Congratulations! I’ve been MIA for a while – what with all the chocolate I’ve been making lately, but it’s wonderful to see you get the recognition you so richly deserve! BTW, was just listening to a dating roadkill podcast this weekend with my bf, will you be producing any this year?

@ Baba Doodlius: I want Colbert!! :)
@ AmyD: Seriously, THANK YOU for reading all of this time. You (and a few others) have been around since damn near the beginning. I’m super excited and appreciative of the support.
