Author Toni Morrison collapsed into a chair after her private tour of the White House conducted by President Obama.
"Shit. Let me catch my breath," Morrison told the President. "Not used to all this walking around. Writers sit all day, and I got the ass to prove it. Whew! Shoes are tight as a motherfucker. Bunions are killing me. Should've worn my slippers. Barack baby, fetch me some grape Kool-Aid."
The Nobel Laureate, who may or may not have washed her hair for the occasion, was given the tour because Maya Angelou, the other award-winnng black author trotted out for such events, was busy.
