Next Evolution

the previous depressing post. I’m PMSing!

I’ve found a new home blogsome family. Time to say goodbye.

If you’ve enjoyed my ramblings, come over, there’s plenty of room!

The Juxtaposition of Me

It’s been fun!

am I dateable?

I was just reading a random blog and got to thinking….If I could date myself, would I?

The answer…..NO.

Wow. If I’m not willing to date myself, then I see how hard it is for others.

Hmmmm, why wouldn’t I date myself?
Well, I know I still have some issues I got work on. I know I want to get that right so I don’t make the men I date pay for others mistakes. Lawd Jeebus, this weekend was a testament to my “daddy” issues. Jesus be a fence around me!

My pop took my car to get worked. I was happy and carefree..until it began squeaking again just as before. I hate bootleggedededness…cutting corners…just do it right the first time. *le sigh*

Wow, where was I going with this? There are probably many other reasons I wouldn’t date myself right now…one being trust issues, but I think I’ll sit down and ponder on those.

All I know is that my immediate answer was no…hmmm.

Soooooo I realized last night that I’m bougie or siddity <—spelling?

Anywho, me and my friend Penny didn’t know what we wanted to do and she wasn’t dressed to go “out” soooo we decided to have wine, cheese and movie night.

I spruced up the den and eagerly awaited her arrival. She’s a wine connisuer having worked in a country club and served all the snooty white people *no offense..I have white friends…lol, even in my no offense, it was reverse offensiveness* [I swear somebody has snatched my body…I don’t know if I want it back just yet.] She told me they routinely would pop the corks, put them a bowl and then try to match them to their original bottles.. ummm yeah..k.

Anyway, she arrived with a red wine..the name escapes me but I’m not much of a red wine drinker..I’m a lil sissified…it’s bitter and it burns! lol Let’s just say “hypothetically” she finished the bottle by herself..and it showed..she tried to ‘walk the line’ on my den carpet and wobbled the whole time. All I can remember saying is “don’t fall cause I can’t do nothin for ya. I can throw you a pillow off the couch but that’s it!” My friend has at least 50lbs on me…umm yeah, she get’s a “are you ok?” and pillow.

Our movie of choice was My Fair Lady cause I didn’t own Under the Tuscan Sun. Prior to getting to my house she picked up the goodies from the World Market. She not only got a bottle of red and Chardonnay (sp?), she got this triangular hard crisp bread that had sesame seed flavor to it, some Chavarie goat cheese, brie, and this wonderful italian puff pastry with butter and sugar sprinkled on top. *drooling*

I found this an excellent time to open my bottle of Niagra wine. Oh the splendid heavens did part and the angels sang a blessed aria. <—I’m not a lush, I promise. lol I commenced to almost finish that whole bottle myself..I believe there is only one good glass full left.

Yes, yes, we spent the entire night talking about random things and singing My Fair Lady songs at the top of our lungs. Good ole bougie times! lol
She’s invited me to a Polo party..not the shirt, the actual sport. She went to an ivy league school and this is one of their alumni events. Go figure. My lil state school is like polo what? huh? lol But trust I wouldn’t trade her tution for mine! No sirrrr! I’m still contemplating on going…will the afro work? lol

Is it just me, or is the best sleep wine induced? I had a doulbe wammie myself. I was looking through the linen closet and ran across my sateen sheet. Oh My God. They are the perfect blend. Silk is to slippery but sateen is just right. Soft and smooth but has good traction! lol I fell into a coma. I swear I did! It took until about 10:45am to get out of bed and that was only because my friend had to leave and I had to lock the door.

I think we’ll have to make this a once a month shindig. A wine tasting event with different cheeses, some fruit and the appropriate movie!

This was a definite upgrade from the group blockbuster night at Mikey’s house, some fast food and soda. Complete upgrade!

Now I am fighting to be productive…ahhh it’s only 1:15pm.. I think I’ll get back in my glorious bed and think about being productive between the hours of 3 and 8pm.
