I guess it’s officially summer for real now

Well, I’ve still got it! hahah I went to the drive in movies tonight with Kail and her boyfriend. While sitting at a stoplight I heard from my left, “hey”. (Later come to find out from Kail this was the second time since I didn’t hear the first one). I turn my attention to what ends up being a Jeep with 3 youngbloods in it all smiling at me. I smiled back and said hi. Then idek which one was talking to me but he said, “how’s it going?” To which I replied good, how are you doing? Or something like that, I can’t even remember I was so shy and taken aback. I was definitely smiling a lot. Then we both sat at the light for what felt like forever where I laughed and asked Kail why always at this intersection we get talked to like that.  It was so funny. Then they revved their Jeep and drove off, I’m sure I was blushing. I never know what to do in those situations. I’m always on the defensive, not sure if they mean it or are making fun of me somehow or joking. But they legitimately looked around 20-22. I really wish I had said, “I’m 32” and see what they said haha I bet it would’ve been funny. Either way, joking with me or not, it made me feel good 😊 I had my hair done this morning that I’m in love with and I had some decent makeup on as well so it was nice to be noticed. It truly made it feel like a summer night lol driving with the windows down. And another thing, I don’t know why they started talking to me anyway, I had my head down flipping through music on my phone. I joked with Kail that maybe they thought I looked their age cause I was doing that haha

The drive in was so fun! We brought pizza and sweets. Originally we had planned to see Ghostbusters and Groundhog Day cause I have never seen the OG Ghostbusters. But they changed it to Men in Black and I wasn’t interested in seeing that. We saw E.T. and Jurrasic Park; both movies I have seen a million times as a kid but it hits differently when you’re an adult. I loved E.T. so much! I kept saying it’s so cute/sweet/sad. It being the movie in general. As for Jurrasic Park, I don’t know if I was just antsy or what but by then it was hard to focus. Which is funny cause that’s the one I really wanted to see on the big screen. Still good. Samuel L. Jackson’s character was so obnoxious I was laughing like I’m surprised the credits didn’t say “cigarette guy” 😄 And it was funny how Kail knows like every bit of it. It’s one of the movies she loved and I thought was scary so it’s a funny childhood memory.

Oh and another thing about the drive in I totally forgot about. They announce over the radio the snack bar is closing in however many minutes. But like I said, I forget they do this so when it happens you’re engrossed in the movie and it confuses you. It looks like it’s dubbed over the film. So, cause I’m hilarious, I said to Kail and V, I don’t remember that part of the movie! Or something as equally stupid lol but we all got a chuckle out of it.

It has been such a long day/ night. Woke up this morning to my hairdresser calling to see if I’d like to come in earlier due to another client of his canceling so I took the opportunity and got there an hour earlier than scheduled. I honestly cannot believe it’s already been 7 weeks since I first had my hair done. So I just had my roots touched up but he also toned my hair so now it’s really blonde with less yellow tone in it. Not that it was really yellow before but it is so much prettier now. I’m really in love with it now! Anyways. I’m falling asleep haha you know, the usual.

The car thing is very different than what I am capable of. I never have my window down because I worry people will judge my music. Then I never look at anyone around me. I just stare forward. I’m glad it helped you feel good though.

Hold onto your butts!

I’m glad you had a good time.

@heffay oh no, I am the exact same way. Except people judging my music. I don’t look around cause I think it would be awkward to make eye contact also 98% of the time I’m singing. But I get you.

Hahah 🤦🏻‍♀️

Thank you!
