The Pressure..
Funny....now that I added the "subscribe me" box I feel like I have an obligation to post good stuff LOL. I mean what can I say, I love my readers (that would be yall)!! For instance, I am in the process of doing some research on the financial literacy of African-Americans bc a subscriber asked for a posting about credit scores..see so I love yall!!
Ok, so my weekend was quite dull, I spent Friday in Richmond, VA rubbing elbows with some work people. Being the lazy bones that I am, I hitched a ride with a co-worker...needless to say big mistake!! Well, not totally..but kinda. For those that don't know, it is a 3 hour drive each way to Richmond, considering you don't get lost..but of course with my luck we did. We got very lost which added an extra hour to the already long trip...so if you are following me, this is a total of 7 hours I am in the car with this guy. I spent 6 hours and 55 minutes listening to him talk about himself (the 5 minutes of heaven were when he got out to pump gas...thank God for empty tanks lol). But it wasn't a total lost bc now I can say I am an expert in the area of the Mormon faith. Did you know they have to wear special underwear? Dang! I would be lost without my vickies!! He also told me about his failed marriage and about some hottie from Philly that he used to be in love with (dumb me for even mentioning to him that I was from Phila...should have known he'd have a story). The only thing that kept me sane was my new buddy........
.......Mr. Blackberry!! YES!! Finally getting tired of being laughed at by my friends for still owning a planner and an old school flip phone, I broke down and bought it. I must say this was one of the best purchases I have ever made! Ranked right up there with my MAC Goldensoft Lipgelee (can't live w/o it)..great purchase. Don't you love when you buy something and you just ADORE it, I hate to buy something then get home and use it and I am only partially satisfied. Anyway, I love love love the phone...it keeps me super organized. I swear I don't know how I was getting by without it before. So my point was, I couldnt have made it through the trip without my trusty phone!
Sunday I went to the mall and did a little shopping. YAY free air conditioner! It was hot as hell...I had every intention of laying out at the pool and doing a little tanning. It's almost August and I haven't even totally shed my winter skin yet! But silly me, I dont know where the dang pool is at! I know we have one, but I keep forgetting to ask my leasing office where it is...so I did the mall thing instead :-/
While in the mall, I figured I would give one of my girls a call. Let me let you in on a secret about my policy when dealing with her, I ONLY and I mean ONLY call her when I have 15-20 min max to spare..otherwise she will keep me for hours yapping about dumb stuff. So the topic of choice for yesterday was her upcoming baby shower. The one that I thought was a surprise but somehow she has her hands all in the planning. So she is going on and on about the registry. This girl has a bunch of stuff on there priced at $300!! Are you kidding me? I was like you realize not everyone can afford or will WANT to buy a gift that expensive? Her response: "Well my close friends better get me something nice..that's what the expensive stuff is for." My reply: "ha ha (dryly) I hear you" So she repeats it again, I guess to emphasize the word CLOSE...so of course I politely replied "Well when I receive an invitation we can discuss gifts..now beat it". I mean the audacity of someone to feel as if folks are obligated to buy expensive gifts on the strength of friendship..I think not and I will not. Shoot, and I was gonna get her something nice...hmpf she has screwed herself. Needless to say I am turned off at this point and her 20 minutes are up. I haven't even received an invite yet and this thing is tentalively scheduled for September. Shoot, she better hurry and let me know before my Blackberry gets booked :-) and yall know I'm shady about driving to Philly....this shindig might get dissed lol. Some people...I tell you...
