- About Me:
- THE COCONUT DIARIES blog is the uncensored part of me. The squirrel that’s just trying to get a nut. The pieces of me that are good, bad, funny, and reveal my persistent, incurable inattention to detail that exercises itself in my missing obvious social cues. Why the title? Well, someone I respected and loved in my adolescence pulled me aside to say, “Us coconuts need to stick together!” He later explained that, like us, a coconut was brown on the outside and white on the inside. Although I don’t consider myself “white on the inside”, there was an indescribable comfort in knowing that I was not alone. I wasn’t the only one who’d grown up in a predominantly white neighborhood and had mostly white friends. The only one who felt a constant tug between cultures that left me ”too white” for this or “too black” for that. This is me in a blog, living my life the best way I know how, and painting my own silver lining on the clouds so that someone else might discover, in this vast Internet connection, that they are also not alone.
…And because stories about the weird guys I’ve dated, the random things that skate through my mind, and the countless ways I make a fool of myself are funny.

My Universe, Brought to You By The Folks at AA
ME: But I’ve had a pretty rough week…I got cursed out at work in Portuguese, the side effects from The Implant has been 2 straight weeks of gifts from Mother Nature, AND I’m a little peeved at McCain’s veiled attempt at securing the female vote with this Sarah Palin nonsense. I am looking forward to meeting up with My Singles for some cocktails.
The Universe: If you insist. I will turn off your alarm clock so you’ll be late for work.
ME: Oh,… Continue
