Weekend Plans
I’ve been trying to post the pictures from the party since Tuesday night. I give up. Blogger is a piece of shit and I quit!!!! Sorry I can’t share.. if you really want to see them, holla at me and I’ll email them to you.

Tonight… I will be doing a movie night with my GTL and our friends. One of my friends has never seen Coming to America. Can you believe that? So no one can pick on her anymore, we’re going to rent it, order some pizzas and bug out all night long. We had so much alcohol at my birthday party that we have some left over. I’m sure some of that will get drank tonight.

Tomorrow… We’re going to the Taste of Baltimore. I was supposed to take my little sister (the one I volunteer for.) I emailed her mom two weeks ago. I didn’t hear anything until today. So I assumed that she wasn't going. I’m pissed that she waited until TODAY, one day before the event to say that she can go. That was very inconsiderate and rude… so much, in my opinion, that I don’t even want to go get her. People really blow me sometimes. Anyways… after the Taste of Baltimore, I’ll be home… working on a 15 page paper that I haven’t given 2 seconds of thought about. It’s due next Wed. I’m just not in the mood for school. I thought after a few classes, that would change, but it hasn’t.

Sunday… My job is giving their company picnic at Six Flags. GTL and I will be there. I’m going to make him get on all of the roller coasters with me! I can’t wait. Hopefully, it won’t rain like they’re calling for. And if it does, it’s really quick and really light.. and of course before or after I go! LOL

Have a good weekend people. What are your plans?

I’m so tired.. But it was well worth it!
I had a wonderful birthday weekend. I haven’t celebrated all weekend like this since my 21st birthday. I took pictures, but not a lot b/c (1) I was by time more people came, I was drunk already. (2) I got a new memory card for my camera, and it wasn’t working right – I have to send that shit back!!! I’ll edit this post later tonight and add the pictures, cause I didn’t forward them to myself so I can have them at work.

FRIDAY

I got off of work at 1:30PM. Originally, I was supposed to go get my little sister and she was going to come to my party, but when I called her, she told me she couldn’t make it. (YES!) I know that’s not right, but she lives all the way on the other side of town, and I still had to finish cooking and setting things up. I already made the seafood salad, but nothing else was done. On the menu, we had seafood salad, meatballs, fried chicken, hot wings, honey-bar-b-q wings, veggie platter, and mozzarella sticks (for those that came early). The bar lineup was Gin, Absolut, Long Island Iced-Tea, Evan Williams, Tequila, some blue mess, and Bacradi (dark & light) – this was to start off with. As more people came, so did more bottles. And since it was MY birthday, I got a lot of bottles, just for me :-) And every time I got a new bottle, I would say “Happy Birthday… to me!” LOL. By the end of the night... I had 10 bottles total: 8 of Hennessy, 1 bottle of 1738, and 1 bottle of Moet.



GTL and I throw these parties often, and we always have a ball – but I think this was the best of them yet!! At the beginning it seemed like there were 100 chicks there (LOL – it was really only 20.) Mid-way through, the ratio was even. At the end of the night, it seemed to be 100 dudes! LOL. Everyone was drunk as hell! I finally met Honey-Libra (my blog twin cause we have so much stuff in common! LOL) Her and her girlfriends are mad cool. From the looks of blog, she really enjoyed herself (so I’ll be sure to let her know when the next one is.) The party was over about 4AM

SATURDAY

I know I said that I was going to go the baseball game, but I didn’t feel like it. I didn’t have a hangover, I just was too damn tired to go. The game started at 4:30PM. My brother show started at 8PM. That’s too much driving in the same area, b/c what I would’ve worn to the game, I wouldn’t have worn to the show. And where the show was in comparison to the stadium was only like 15 min away – that’s a waste of gas. So GTL and I slept most of Saturday away. We went to lunch… first we were going to do brunch at Denny’s but then I was like, nope! I want Wendy’s. So we’re waiting in line (what seemed to be forever) and then the cook came from behind the counter with her gloves on, walked to the bathroom, like five minutes later, she came back out… with the SAME GLOVES ON!!!!! GTL and I watched her walk into the back, and grabbed a bag of fries and threw them into the deep fryer – WITHOUT CHANGING HER GLOVES!!! Gross!! So we kindly left and went to another Wendy’s b/c I was intent on getting my #2 no onions w/ a biggie Dr. Pepper! LOL.

My brother’s show was OK. It didn’t start on time – but what do you expect, we never do! The acts were a little long – especially since they were unknown acts. But my “best friend” and his little brother did well when they performed. But as I said, the show was long as hell, so we left half way through. Then we went to Houlian’s to eat. The service sucked, but the food was good. We bugged out while we were there and GTL and I experienced 1738 for the 1st time while walking to the restaurant! LOL.

SUNDAY

I got up and went to Church. Thanked God for a allowing me to get through another blessed year. Waited for GTL to finish his game and then he took me to Philadelphia for dinner. His dad & step-mom treated us to dinner and bought me a really nice watch w/ a matching bracelet. They also got me a cake! I love cake. After dinner, we watch Cold Case & Without A Trace – good season premieres!

MONDAY

This was supposed to be my recuperation day. But since I’m still tired, I guess I didn’t get much rest, huh? GTL and I both had off. We slept in and then went to the mall. I have a $25 gift card for Nine West, so I get a purse. GTL paid for me to get a massage – amazing by the way! Then we did lunch at the Japanese restaurant that’s in the mall. After that, we watched movies. Someone told me that “When A Stranger Calls” sucked – but I liked it!! Then GTL and my girlfriends went to dinner at Fridays. We all go appetizers and then when our food came, we all took a bite, and was full. The Friday’s people sung me happy birthday and gave me (or should I say us) ice cream, and we all devoured it! I was trying to watch CSI: Miami, but I couldn’t stay awake! =( If anyone knows who the killer was, please share!

I had a great birthday weekend!!! And next year will be even better because I’ll be celebrating the big 2–5! How was your weekend?

Happy Birthday to Me
OK, so today isn’t really my birthday, it’s Monday… but since my party is tonight... today FEELS like my birthday. I’m sure I’m going to be showered with bottles of Hennessy! LOL. When I had a party for leaving TRP, by the end of the night, I had 3 bottles of the regular Hennessy and 1 bottle of Hennessy Privileged… Just imagine how many I will have since it’s my birthday! I’m getting excited already!! And my homie Honey-Libra supposed to come through to help me celebrate!

I’ve decided that I’m going to go the Orioles game tomorrow (as long as I’m not too sick to get up!) And after that, I’ll be headed to my brother’s show. He said that it should end about 12AM. That’s too late to try to go to a club (for me anyways cause I likes to party all night long!) So I may hit up a bar later that night.

I’ll have to let you guys know what GTL did for me for Sunday on Tuesday cause as I said before, it’s a surprise. Monday (my actual birthday) I will be chilling, recuperating from the weekend… home, laid up w/ GTL all day. I can’t wait.

A little off my birthday… I got my braids taken out last night. I think I’m so done with dealing with African shops altogether when it comes to getting braids. Feb 2005, I went to a shop to get them done. The lady told me over the phone it would cost $150. When I got there, she tried to up the price on me to like $180 or something. I was like, all I have is $150 cause that’s what you told me. Since I was like I’ll leave and go somewhere else that’ll take the $150, if not less, she took me, but braided the braids as short as possible, I had the braids w/ the burnt ends, so some of MY hair got burnt too. This time, I went to my cousin’s homegirl and they looked like I went to the shop! Well, last night I was supposed to go to shop A to get them taken out. Called on Sunday to see when’s latest I can come in. They were like, just tell us which day and we’ll stay. So I said Thursday. Thursday came and I called early in the day just to make sure, they were like “I don’t know, call back later to find out.” WTF?!?! So I called back at 3 to make sure someone would be there at 4:45 – they said yes. You know when I got there, they were closed? Pissed, is not the word for how I felt. Luckily Shop B was still open and took me. But do you know this bitch tried to charge me $60?? Yeah right! I only paid $100 to get them put in! I was expecting to pay $40 and that’s all I had on me. She was like, “You bring the rest, when we finish?” I said sure. Yeah fucking right!! She knew I wasn’t bringing that money back cause she kept trying to go with me. I was like, I’m not taking you with me cause I don’t know you. You’re not getting in my car! I told her I’d be back in like 5-10 to go to the bank and come back. Then she was like, well my ride is almost here, wait and we can go together… I was like, I’m not waiting! I’ll bring you your money back. I left in the direction of the bank, turned at the corner and took my ass home. Fuck I look like paying $60 for them to take my braids out when I helped her and she had like 10 kids in there that she kept stopping to fuck with? Bitch must think I’m stupid!

Ok, off my soapbox now… I’m ready to party!!!!!!! Have a good weekend, I know I will!

I Need to be Doing Homework
But I’m just not in the mood. I finished my normal weekly tasks. But I have a chapter to read, as well as an abstract and outline for my paper to complete – don’t feel like it! It took me forever to do my weekly tasks, when it should’ve taken me an hour tops. I’m a little discouraged in completing the outline and abstract, because honestly, I don’t know what topics within my paper I want to cover. I mean, damn, I just picked my topic last week. I haven’t event really started looking for references in order for me to know what topics are out there for me to discuss – which is probably why I don’t feel like doing it. I don’t feel like reading because my teacher likes to go off on tangents and spends like 50% of the course discussing things that aren’t on the presentation. We have yet to discuss our pre-class assignment, let alone the other readings we’ve been assigned, so why waste my time? There aren’t any test/quizzes in the course, so what’s the point. If the book was interesting and didn’t make me sleepy, then maybe, but again… I’m not in the mood.

Friday, I had a freaking ball! I said that I couldn’t party until 4AM, but I was wrong! Parking lots know they be getting over on you when something is going on. It’s already high as fuck to park in DC as is, but why were they charging $25 to park in a lot? Oh, cause Ludacris was there! I’m not trying to hear that crap! LOL. But we paid it.. split the bill between 3 as much as we could. It’s 10:30PM, our passes only gets us in for free before 11PM. The line is all the way to the other end of the building… at the freaking corner. Luckily for us, we saw 3 of our homeboys that weren’t too far from the entrance, so we hopped in line with them. Then we called our other 4 girls (that were at the end of the line) to come 1-by-1 up front w/ us. They did, and we got in at 10:55PM (so we paid NOTHING!) When we got in, one of our homegirls talked to the dude at the “front desk” and worked out a deal to get us all normally $40 VIP passes for $20.

We walked upstairs to the 2nd floor and Ludacris was already performing. WTF? That was mad early. Most acts don’t start performing until like 12AM, 1AM, damn near time for the club to close. But it was cool, cause we kindly walked on the stage and was able to get a decent view and not be packed like sardines on the dance floor. He performed for like an hour or so. Then we hit the 3rd floor, wanted to do the 4th floor, but it was closed. (Digression: Has anyone in the DC/MD area been to Love/Dream and the 4th floor has been open? I’ve never been there when it was opened. What’s that all about?) Anyway… since the 3rd floor was ridiculously packed and the 4th floor was closed, we went to the 1st floor and got a drink. The 1st floor is never jumping to me, so we went back to the 2nd floor in the VIP section where we originally were.

We all were partying our asses off. The one girl that I rode with was ready to leave like close to 2:30AM, not cause she wanted to, but because she had to get up early the next day. I was ready to go, so I decided to stay with the rest of my homies. And we didn’t leave until they turned the lights on and put us out. I had on these high ass heels and I kept them bitches on all night long (sometimes I can’t help it & get ghetto with it and take my shoes off to give my feet a breather) I was so proud of myself! LMAO. But as soon as I got in the car, bets to believe I took them bad boys off!! My feet STILL hurt.

Sorry Freaky, I didn’t get any pictures for you. I didn’t take my camera and I’m so used to not taking my phone in the club, I forgot that I had it there to take pictures of some of them scandalous looking chicks for you! But I was so drunk, they might not have came out good anyways! LOL

I thought I was going to have to whip this bitches ass! In VIP, they have like an extra VIP section for those that rent tables and couches. Where we were, was up against the back of one of the couches, so we would lean against them when something came on that we weren’t feeling. Well I was sitting there and this drunk bitch came up to me and told me to move. I really wasn’t trying to fight and I peeped that it was only her and her girl, and it was 7 of us and I’m not for unfair fights, but I know my girls and it would’ve been an unfair fight. Anyways, the convo went like this:

Drunk Bitch: Yo, move
Me: Hmph (with a look like bitch, if you don’t get the fuck out my face)
Drunk Bitch: For real yo, let me get there
Me: Naw
Drunk Bitch: Yo, just move
Drunk Bitch Friend: (talking to her girl) Yo, come on. Leave her alone. (talking to me) I’m so sorry, she’s so fucked up
Drunk Bitch: For real yo, move
Drunk Bitch Friend: (noticed I was about to move, but it wasn’t to let her ass sit there!) Do you know my friend?
Me: (thinking to myself, have you ever fucking seen me before?!?) No!
Drunk Bitch Friend: Again, I am so sorry! (And then she dragged her drunk ass friend off)

I don’t understand how people can get that wasted. I’ve been drunk PLENTY of times, and I’ve never done anything stupid like that… trying to buck bad with someone over a fucking seat? Really… People really be bold when they get some drink up in them!

Yesterday, my girl had her birthday dinner party. I ate a salad and made a plate and bounced to go to work. I felt bad for having to eat and run like that, but she said that she wanted me to still come through, so I did. The short time I was there was cool. Work was work. I was pissed because the schedules got changed and the dude that was supposed to come in and relieve me didn’t know that he was supposed to. I was supposed to get off at 12AM, I didn’t get off until 1AM. Actually pissed was not the word! I was tired as hell since I didn’t get home until 5 something that morning, all I wanted to do was go home and pass out!!

Today, I decided that I was going to go to GTL’s game today, but this league that he plays in is so unorganized! It was unorganized the first two seasons they had it, but it has the best competition in it, so that’s why he plays in it. But his game got forfeited because the other team never showed – and that’s why I hardly ever go to his games! I want to support my man, but geesh! Play in a league where if your game is scheduled at 1PM, you’re going to play at 1PM. WTH?!?

I’m at work now. I got this dude at my full-time job, a part-time job here. I think that might have been a mistake… we’ll see in due time. But at the moment, he seems a little slow at grasping things. I hope he picks up on things, cause if he doesn’t last his 3 months, then I don’t get my bonus!

But on Friday, he emailed me and was like, “Is any of your friends looking for love? I figured since you hooked me up w/ a job, you might can hook me up with a girl?” I was like WTF! So I nicely replied, “No, none of my friends are looking for love, they’re currently just having fun” – hoping that would be the end of it. WRONG! He replied back, “well that works too! Who comes to mind?” WHOA! Dude! I don’t know you all like that… You don’t know ANY of my friends and what they look like, so why are you trying to get me to hook you up? It took me a minute to think of a response that wouldn’t have him respond with something else and doesn’t involve me cursing him out. So I said, “Sorry, I don’t hook my friends up w/ sex partners, I let them choose their own mates.” He had left for the day, but hopefully tomorrow when I get to work, I won’t have another email. My oldest friend is 27. Dude is 38 (although he doesn’t look like it) and has corn rolls – IMO… he’s too old for that shit! And he has a kid – which is a definite deal-breaker for me and ALL of my friends. We don’t have kids of our own, so why would we want to have a ready-made family with someone else. Get serious! Let me stop talking about him b/c it’s making me not like him. LOL

One week from tomorrow (Monday) is my birthday!!! I’ll be 24. This week I will be drinking plenty of water so when this weekend comes and I drink my liver away (LOL) at least I won’t be too dehydrated! LMAO.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TESHA!!
Not much going on with me today. But there are a lot of September/Libra babies around. Today is my homegirl Tesha’s birthday. She’s ten days older than me. I know she was happy to start hanging out with me, because then she was no longer the youngest in the crew. SO WHAT! I don’t care that I’m the youngest.

She’s been celebrating her birthday all month! LOL. But really heavy this week. Tonight we’re going to Love (formerly Dream Night Club) in DC. She decided that she didn’t want to party in Baltimore because all the clubs in Baltimore (except Choices – YUK!) close at 2AM. She’s trying to party all night. Love closes at 4AM. Me personally… I can’t party until 4AM and then drive 45 min back home – ain’t happening!!! We’re taking two cars and me and my one (maybe 2 homegirls) are dipping like 2AM – can’t help that’s what we’re accustomed to.

Ludacris is supposed to be there tonight. So that should be cool. We got passes to get in before 11PM, so we’re leaving early cause I’m sure the lines will be long as hell.

Tomorrow she’s having a dinner party. I can’t stay because I have to work at my part-time job tomorrow night, but she said I can come get a plate before I go to work… that so works! I’m pretty sure she has something planned for Sunday as well, but again I have to work, so I don’t think I’ll be participating. Plus I have to rest up for the following weekend to start partying (drinking) for my birthday!

Have a good weekend!! And happy birthday to all of the September and Libra babies!

I’m Bringing Sexy Back! Yeah!
My co-worker burned Justin Timberlake’s CD for me today… so I’m excited!! I decided that since I actually bought Beyonce’s CD last week and wasn’t too impressed, I wasn’t going to take that chance and waste my money again. But as soon as I get in my car today… Justin will be going into the player!! I just love that song…

Friday… I did nothing! I picked up my little sister and we came back to my spot and watched movies all night.

Saturday… I had a blast! I was tired as hell coming home, but it was all worth it. I got up at 7AM as if I were going to work. We were on the rode by 8AM, stopped to get breakfast and then made it to Kings Dominion in 2 hours. I was floating.. until like 5 miles away and then people got brake-happy and was pissing me the hell off! I have road rage for-real!!

We got there, and the lines weren’t too bad for a Saturday. The only 2 rides that had long lines were The Volcano and the Hypersonic… And I love those two rides so I didn’t mind waiting. The Volcano is like the best ride ever!!! (on the east coast anyways.) We left about 6PM. By then we had rode damn near all of the rides and the ones that we missed been there forever so we knew what was in store. On the way home, my sister crashed on me 10 minutes into the ride. So I called my girlfriend from Charlotte and we tripped all the way until I got about 15 minutes into MD and then my battery died! I was pissed. I started to take the car-charger from GTL, but he went to PA that day too… So I had to drive another hour or so (taking my sister home, then going home) with nothing but Jay-Z… doable.

As soon as I got home… I hopped in the shower and CRASHED!!! GTL was out working at this club. When he came in.. I woke up, waved to him, and went right back to sleep. LOL.

Sunday… I went to church… which felt good because it’s been a minute since I’ve been because I’ve been working a lot. After church, I came home and GTL and I stretched out… while he watched football (yah Ravens!) I read my book for school. We cooked dinner together and then he went over his homeboy house to watch the Manning vs. Manning game and I went over my homegirl house to watch the Flava of Love. You don’t know how pissed I was that he invited New York back!! I hated he crybaby ass on the first season. I hope Bootz kicks her ass!! If I was Bootz.. I would’ve told her to come up them steps so I could’ve pushed her ass back down. That show is crazy and my stomach can’t help but to turn every time I see one of them chicks kiss Flav… YUK!!!!!

So that was my weekend… Starting a new week… finishing up my homework for school. My teacher is delayed with shit and that kind of bothers me, but what can you do?

Have a good week!

What’s Going On?
I started school last night. I’m taking IT Law… fun. :-/
My teacher is talkative like hell. She’s goes off on tangents… when someone offers input… she cuts them off to give her 2 cents – I don’t think she does it to be rude. But she’s the type of person that when holding a conversation with someone, she hears what the person is saying, but isn’t listening to them because she’s too busy thinking of what her next comment will be. Six more weeks… But the class should be pretty easy. No quizzes or tests. Just current events & presentations and one paper. So that should be another A under my belt! It would be so great to graduate grad school with a 4.0 (keep your fingers crossed for me!)

This week has been a chill week. I didn’t do much over the weekend because I had to work at my part-time job. Monday, James & I threw a couple of steaks on the grill for us and my mom… Tuesday we saw ATL for the first time – damn good movie. I think TI really did well. Yesterday was school and today is nothing!!

Tomorrow I’m going to get my little sister (my real one.) We’re just going to hang out Friday night so that we will be well rested when we go to Kings Dominion on Saturday. It’s going to be 4 of us going. I was originally supposed to take my other little sister (the one I volunteer to be) but her mom changed her mind at the last minute. Which kind of pissed me off.

We were originally supposed to go in July (with my cousin’s job) – but the date was the day after my mom’s party and I knew I was going to be whipped and wasn’t going to be up for the ride. So I opted to go this weekend w/ my girlfriend’s job (for $20.) My little sister’s mom was like that’s fine… it works out great that way b/c it’s on Sat (instead of Sun like in July.) But when we talked in July – she acted as if she really didn’t want to go w/ us… so I gave my girlfriend the money for me & my little sister’s ticket. I told her mom – and I explained that I could tell that she didn’t really want to go the last time since she really doesn’t do the rides like that… so I only got my sister’s ticket… BUT! If you want to go – let me know and I can get an extra ticket for you. And I also said – no rush for the money, but she can pay me back for my sister’s ticket whenever she got the money. So on TUESDAY… her mom tells me that she really doesn’t have the money for my sister to go, plus she really wanted to go with her. WTF?!? My year is up in December… I think I need to find something else to do as far volunteering because I don’t like having to schedule my free time around someone else’s schedule. Plus I don’t think I’m really making an impact on my little sister as I first intended. I always come up with the things to do. She never calls me to say “Can we go here” or “Can we do this.” She never calls me at all for that matter… so what’s the point?

Looking forward to going to Kings Dominion though! Haven’t been in about 3 years. And then on October 1st, I’ll be going to Six Flags with my job! Sunday I’ll be doing nothing… Go to Church and then come home and be laid up with GTL all day.

Have a good weekend!!!
