Wanda came to a city near us!


Wanda Sykes was in Augusta, Georgia Saturday night

at the Miller Theater

Pretty surprised me at Christmas with tickets to see my favorite comedian Wanda Sykes who did, indeed, come to a city near us this past weekend. Wanda “live” was a bucket list experience for me, and Pretty found this event on Wanda’s current tour of the United States in Augusta which is only an hour from where we live. Our friends Francie and Nekki were up for the fun and laughs that made my bucket overflow!

I chose Wanda Sykes as my first Black History Month honoree because she is one of a kind. One of my favorite quotes of hers wasn’t in her performance Saturday night but it’s a classic:

I’m a black, gay woman. I think the only way to make the GOP hate me more is if I sent them a video of me rolling around on a pile of welfare checks.

Tell it, Sister. You make me LOL – no, for real. Laugh out loud.

If Wanda comes to a city near you, treat yourself.

Thank you, Pretty, for this special treat; Wanda was all I hoped she would be.
