One last puppy pile before tomorrow.

Lilith spent the evening doing what puppies should do: playing with her brothers until everyone fell asleep.

Tomorrow, she goes home.

My heart is full, and a little broken, all at the same time. That's fostering.

Sweet dreams, little diva. 💜🐾

On Saturday, May 9, 2026, I will ceremonially be hooded as Dr. Curtis Ladrillo Chamblee after earning my PhD in Communication and Media from The University of Memphis.

What a journey this has been. Grateful for everyone who helped carry me to this moment.

Ashé. Mahal. Salamat.

In 24 hours, all roads converge—on Mom’s birthday.
Grief. Heartache. Every page, every prayer—it all leads to tomorrow, May 20, 1–3 CST.
This defense is for Mom, for Godiva, for every version of me that survived.

In less than 3 days, I defend my dissertation: Tell Me a Story About Home: Black Masculinity Through the Lens of Place, Relationships, and Discourse in the MCU.

This work asks: How do place, relationships, and discourse shape identity?

Almost Dr. Chamblee.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! 🧡 Missing Godiva today, but I carry her memory and love in my heart. I’m grateful for the connections that make life meaningful and for Michelle, Hershey, and Reeses, who bring me so much joy. Wishing you all love, warmth, and moments that truly matter. 🧡
