I need something to post about, currently I have nothing… This is why I haven’t posted. I suck.
• Valentine’s Day was… Over a week ago, ha! I’ll be the first to admit that aside from seeing red and pink all over the place, I’m not a huge fan of the holiday. However, Mr. Coconut took time out of his day to arrange for one of his friends to bring my flowers… I was sitting at my desk when a young guy (my age) walked through the door, handed me a card, some flowers and said, “These are for you.” Instantly I knew something was up because how did this random guy know who I was? I threw my professionalism out the window and said, with an attitude, “Who are you?” He tried to play it off like he was a flower delivery guy but I was wise to his lies. Before I could quiz him on which florist he worked for, a question most guys, unless really employed by florist, couldn’t answer, he was out the door. I also noticed he wasn’t parked out front in a delivery vehicle but walking through our parking lot, interesting. The next thing I see, Mr. Coconut’s car pulling out of the parking lot. I immediately called him and he played dumb to the situation… Until I told him I had just seen his car pull out of the parking lot. Then you could hear the two idiots laughing. Overall, it was very sweet and more importantly, funny… Which I always appreciate.
The card was the best part. It was one of those cards that allows you to record your own message, here was mine: "Hi babe... I'm trying to be romantic... Anyway... Happy Valentine (yes, it was singular) Day."
• I’m searching for a part-time job (because I don’t make enough money to pay my bills). So far, no luck. Ideally, I’d like to get something that is nights/weekends and is close to home. I’m not being too picky about my next job, but I’m still having a difficult time finding one.
• I miss my nephews. Living so far away, having a full-time job and being dirt poor doesn’t allow me much opportunity to visit them. It really bothers me that I can’t be in their lives as much as I’d like to. I guess my biggest fear is that they’re going to grow up not knowing who I am. I understand that they’re both so young, but I feel like I’m missing out on so much. My brother and The Neighbor Girl are both really good at sending me little photos and videos, but nothing compares to spending time with them in person. Hopefully, by the time they are old enough to have memories, which in Izzy’s case is soon, I will be in a better situation that allows me to spend more time with them.
• Because of President’s Day, I had a three-day weekend. I was really excited to get an extra day off from work (considering last week sucked ass), but very upset that I got a day off for President’s Day and not Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. Again… I live in a racist state. Here’s the thing, I really enjoy a four-day work week and a three-day weekend, it’s perfect and I wish it was like that all the time. For the holiday my mom and my dog came to visit me. I was stressed to the max about my mother coming to visit because I don’t know how to entertain her. She claims she doesn’t need to be entertained, but who doesn’t need to be entertained? I spent the weekend doing a little shopping, watching crap ass movies (Social Network, Eat, Prey, Love and For Colored Girls) eating lots of food and hanging out with my mom and dog. Now the weekend is over, my family is gone (I love my puppy, but carrying him up and down the stairs was killing my back!) and I’m back to work… Actually, I’m doing everything but working: blogging, updating my WishPot List, organizing my Inbox, etc.
• There is a cake decorating class here in town that I really, really want to take… I just purchased the fucking cake class. Fuck my impulse buying.
• Driving a semi-trailer truck would make me nervous… Driving a short bus made me nervous, so many mirrors.
• Some of my new goals include: giving up soda, coffee (which I love, love, love) and eating out (this will be SO tough. I repeat, SO tough). Fuck my life.
Is this enough blogging? Because honestly, I’m over it.
That is all.

A few thoughts:
ReplyDelete1. As far as the email you sent me this morning, I have to check fundage but I think it sounds like a lot of fun!
2. Where are you taking the cake class?
3. Coconut is too cute, I bet his recorded card was even cuter. I can hear his voice almost perfectly, what a sweetie!!!
1) I will also have to check my "fundage..." because I just signed up for the cake class, ha!
ReplyDelete2) Orson Gygi. I've taken some at Michael's, but I didn't really learn anything. Maybe I'll learn something at this one? I'd better, I paid enough for this fucking class.
3) Mr Coconut is cute and a good guy.
