yep, i’m getting old

It’s hard to believe that in 20 days I’ll be 33. Gods, I feel old.

Work is still going well. I love it there. Most of the time I’m bored and don’t have much else to do but answer phones. They do keep me busy sometimes. Today I was informed that I’ll be helping A/R with some invoices and junk. I’m actually excited about that.

Napoleon also informed me that her bf knows someone who’s selling an escort for $400 and well it’s an escort, but it’s one more thing to get me on the road out of this house. That makes me happy. I keep looking at apartments and thinking “soon, very soon”. Tosh asked me this weekend if I had a problem with him staying with me because he’s just been assuming that it was ok. Lol. It’s totally ok. He wants to decorate the apartment in African art work. Yeah we’ll see about that. I’m not worried about décor. He apparently is.

I had such a great weekend. Friday after I got out of work Napoleon picked me up and we went out to dinner with Vick. Dinner sucked, but whatever. Then we went to a party out BFE. Yeah, bunch of rednecks swilling beer and moonshine. We no more than walked up and this shirtless man in overalls asks me my name. Me being the polite kid that I am told him and he introduced me to “Levi”. Yeah, then he told me that Levi was hung like a donkey. 😐 All I could think was “I miss my boyfriend”. It was not a party that Tosh would’ve gone to though and trust me it’s not the kind of party that I’ll be going to again either. Lol. Napoleon and I sat alone talking about stuff while Vick had a few beers with the guys that he works with. Levi lingered around, but I didn’t bother to really look at him. He wasn’t worth a second glance. Bleh. Tosh called while we were there, but he seemed pissy and didn’t have much to say other than he was going to come see me but I wasn’t going to be at Napoleon’s house. I kinda felt bad? I know I had no reason to and he didn’t guilt me or anything. I just did. I miss him so much.

I stayed at Napoleon and Vick’s that nite. Saturday they got up to help a friend of hers move and I stayed at the house waiting for Tosh.

He showed up and was still in an odd mood. I think G was being a brat for his gram and that put Tosh in a bad mood. We ran a few errands and then went to pick up the boys. Then we headed downtown to the Black Arts Festival. I wanted it to be so much more than it was. There weren’t a whole lot of vendors and the crowd was really small. Tosh ended up getting a Haile Selassie t shirt that he was really ‘cited about. He was the king of Ethiopia and who Rastafarians believe to be the second coming. Also known as Jah. So basically in his religion he got a t shirt with God on it. Don’t Latinos wear t shirts of Jeezuz? Lol. Anywhore, we had some awesome rib tips and then went to Barnes and Noble. He then proceeded to tell me that he almost bought me a nook, but I don’t have a credit card or debit card so it wouldn’t do me any good to have one. I was happy that he thought about me. He bought me the coolest book; it’s the first 3 books of the Anne Rice Vampire books. I love the look of it and though I probably won’t read the first two books, I absolutely love Queen of the Damned and I’m sure I’ll end up reading that really soon. It’s old looking and oversized with gilded pages. Then we went to Guitar Center where he bought a new keyboard. So in all he has a djumbi drum, a set of bongos, 3 harmonicas, an acoustic guitar, an electric/acoustic guitar, an electric guitar, the keyboard and a set of maracas. His music room is almost complete? He wants a set of congas next.

***side note***
I just read Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. Lmfao, it was great. I’m also reading “I’m Down” which is hysterical and I started “The Kebra Negast”. The women at work think I’m crazy for my reading habits, but whatev.
***end side note***

Saturday nite we had pizza at his house and then he came back here with me. We rented The Crazies, it wasn’t what I expected and with “Mr. Cynic” it’s hard to really get into a movie that he’s not into. Jerk. Lol. I had much needed quality time and we got up at like 5.45am to get back to his house before his mom had to go to work.

Sunday I made pancakes, sausage and hash browns for the boys and I while he slept. I miss cooking for people. When he finally got up we just hung out around the house. Then we went to the bead store because he wants to make a necklace out of wooden beads. Jeezuz Pete’s Christ, beads are insanely expensive. So we bought none.

Sunday nite we went to see Zion Lion, I was so totally excited to go. The boys weren’t very excited and were “bored” most of the time we were there. It was only an hour and a half and G ended up taking a million pics of all of us and everyone else who was there. Lol. He’s adorable, but omg he’s naughty! J and I get along better than G and I do. I really figured it would’ve been the other way around.

I had a wondemous weekend though. It just sucks that the boys are due to leave in 25 days and I didn’t really get to spend much time with them because of our work schedules. I miss my boyfriend, but not enough to wish his kids weren’t here.
