Last minute

I don't know why I always end up completing important documents at the last minute. I have been preparing for the submission of my proposal for two week now, but now that it's due, i'm still not done and am thinking of requesting an extension. We'll see how far I get by COB tomorrow, but I have class so I won't be able to work late.

My classes this quarter are pretty good. On Monday I have Business Law and on Wednesday's I have Business Writing. The only thing I don't like is how freakin expensive these book are but just like every other quarter, i'll get them eventually.

The propositioners' birthday was today, he called and I had forgot all about it, he said to me "I thought you would've called to wish me a happy b-day" and I said, though I forgot, "You were on my to do list, I just wanted to call when I went on break so i'd have a little more time to talk and sing to you, but since you are on the phone, (Stevie Wonder's rendition) Happy Birthday To Ya' Happy Birthday To Ya' Happy Buurrrth Day". He was satisfied with that and had no way of knowing if it was really on my to do list or not. He then told me he had the money for my hizzair and he wanted to catch up with me for visual stimulation on his birthday. Of course I didn't feel comfortable taking the money on his birthday, especially feeling like he may think I owe him or that he's getting something special......with that thought, I did just that, something special....made him a yellow cake with choc icing. This appeared to be right up his alley, he was on his way to a card game and was going to take it with him to share with his buddies, he also said he'd sell them at his job if it was good enough to advertise. I told him that's what's up and let me know what the consensus says.

I missed they gym today, but like yesterday, I will go after class tomorrow. I have a crazy next couple days so i'm not sure how through i'll be with this daily blogging thing. I'm sure i've missed some stuff but that's all folks! (For now)

Weekend pickup

I'm not sure where I should begin since I skipped a day but my weekend was good overall. I hung with my girl Clair as usual and hit up a Q, went out for a drink and dessert afterwards with a friend.

I went to a baby sprinkle on Sunday after completing a chart for the proposal i'm working on. It was really nice, not overly crowded not to much or to little of anything.........all the little imperfections fit quite perfectly, but that's neighbor lady's style, doin' it just right. I have to say i've met a lot of people and admire all of them for different reasons, but she holds the title for Worlds Hottest PG Woman. She stays on point until the end, with the exception that we all have a bad day time to time. If I was having any babies, she's who I would've kept in mind as I shopped and prayed to carry it as well as she does.

I went to have chocolate cake later that evening and was given a proposition. I clearly stated that I didn't know the going price for this and maybe he should check a street corner or strip club *please note; this statement does not any way meant to insult either profession, I never wanted to walk the street, but I had a secret desire to learn this. He then told me he could have made an offer I couldn't resist and my reply was......"then why didn't you?" Any way, he back peddled quickly and said he only wanted my company......................

Okay, there is a GIANT BUG in my room and I have no idea what it is, i'm sorry.....i have to watch this corner like a hawk until I see it again......geesh, glad that's over, it's like 1:30 am, I had to watch the corner for like 25 minutes until it resurfaced then got buck wild with the broom and the bug. Okay, back to my story......

and he just wanted to see what I was going to say (summed up version). I just laughed, we both knew he tried his hand.

Well all the bug nonsense took to much energy, toodle-loo for now.

Still Feelin It

My arms still hurt from the workout with the trainer.......

Both of my girls are back in town, i've caught up with one, but the other is trying to get back on this coast time schedule i'm sure so I haven't heard from her yet, I will likely hear from her tomorrow.

I was so busy yesterday I didn't get the opportunity to blog, not much to share outside of working until at 7:30 to help get a proposal out, then home and to Ruby Tues for a late appetizer and drink. I was pretty tired.

I attended a cookout today, yes again, with my girlfriend Clair. This is what we do every summer since I met her, go to cookouts. Her brothers are Mason's so between lodge events and her family, which includes about 6 sisters and 8 brothers, there is always a reason to cookout.

I have to tell you all about the proposition I got but I just got home and am going to lay down for a nap.....ill pick back up later

Feelin Strong

When I woke up this morning, I had a smile on my face for two reasons, the first reason is undisclosed and the second is because I felt like I was very very strong. You know how you see those guys at the gym who are walking all big in swole because their chest and arms look like this, well I felt like one of them, my arms seemed like they were big and muscular but in all actually, they look the same. The pain from the trainer hurts so good. I got through the day just fine hurt arms and all, it went by to fast, actually this whole week did.

My girls are both due back this week, one made it back yesterday (What up Jill) and the other is in Belgium (Anne boo) but she'll be home soon. I can't wait to hear all about her trip.

I didn't go to the gym today, but it was the first day I missed. I had to get home to meet a friend of mine and then show my boss lady where to go to pick up some cheap human hair for braiding. She's getting hers done tomorrow and I had no choice but to show her where it was because I didn't know the name of the place nor the side street (later recognized as Chillium) it sat on.

I have unsuccessfully been looking for a dance class. I've ran across lots of ballet options but none reasonable for tap. I was in to ballet when I was younger but I never was feelin men in tights. Tap was fun though, I took it for seven years. Any type of dance that gives you the ability to tap to anything is all right with me. If anyone has any insight or can point me in the right direction to obtain some information on classes i'd be grateful. I don't think i'll ever loose it, but it would be nice to be "fresher" than i'm already is.

I will get my SOW e-mail out tomorrow and e-mail JB regarding my website. That's it for me for now folks. I have a lot of sleep to catch up on.

Humpin in June

Today is was a cool hump day, not much to talk about. Work was good, got there a little later than I would've liked but it's okay, I got a good amount of work done.

Today was my 6 month check-up at the dentist and it went quite well, they said my grill keeps looking better. I use to didn't (yeah I said use to didn't) floss daily, now I do and my hygenist loves me so for it. Dr. Butler is pretty happy with me too. I love my dentist.

I worked out with my boss trainer today, he killed my arms, they feel like spaghetti right now and it takes effort to type this, i'm sure my arms will hurt like heck tomorrow. That it for now, i have no choice but to go now.

Survial at it's best

I didn't know if I was going to make it through the day. I was on the phone with her last night... by the time I looked at the clock just about 3 hours had gone by, I had no idea it was almost 1am. I hadn't saw or talked to her in a while so we had a couple things and people to catch up on. After I got off the phone, there was still at least 30 minutes before I could actually get in the bed in order to finish up some odds & ends.

When my alarm went off this morning, I could barely open my eyes. I tried to figure out why about 3-4 years ago, I could go clubbin' on a week day, leave when they close at 2 and still be up for work bright eyed and bushy tailed. I've come to the conclusion that i'm getting older and for some people, that means their lifestyle slows down. For me it hasn't been intentional, but now that i'm aware of it I think it suits me just fine. I finally pulled myself out of bed, showered to wake up but I just couldn't shake that drowsy feeling. All I could think of was our Tuesday mornin meeting and how I hoped it would hurry and end....before it even got started.

I'm sure I don't need to tell you I DID NOT want to go to the gym, but I sucked it up after laying to rest the 3 excuses not to go I came up with. I am now extremely tired and ready to retire. My boss and Grimace (referencing color relation, not looks) have set me up, I planned to get a free session with their trainer and they have told him to work the hell out of me so at the gym today, he just kept walking by taunting me.....this is so unfair.

It's been a pretty successful week so far. I'm right on schedule with the gym and tomorrow I will talk to John regarding content and get the SOW e-mail out, if not out darn close to it.

G'Nite 4 Now

Free Week

I am happy to say I have started this week off strong.... it is only Monday, but if you start your week off right, it typically ends right, at least for me anyway.

I made it to the gym today at 5:30....considering I typically get there at 6:30 that was pretty good. My boss' training gave her his two weeks so I committed to train with them one day this week. It will likely be on Wednesday....I know he is going to kill me but i'm looking forward to it.

Things are looking up for my hair getting braided, I have purchased my hair and now only need to find someone to braid it for me at a decent price. I don't plan on getting it done until next weekend, but i'm looking forward to it. I'll be hair free come July when i'm running like crazy from Portland to Michigan and back here. The braids will also be a tremendous relief to my workout schedule.

JB got with me regarding my website. We traded cake for content, so I now have to get with him and finalize. Tomorrow I will look for logo's i'd like to use. I think a chef or character of some sort licking their fingers. Let me know if any of you have ideas and feel free to send me suggested logo's and images.

I broke ground on my AA SOW today. I was going to get to it this week anyway but with one of the AA resigning today, I had to focus on it now as opposed to later in the week. I'm not happy she is leaving but this too shall pass. Though she is excellent at what she does, someone can be trained just as well as her. She is replaceable in the office, but never in my heart...like most of my friends I met at work, I'm sure our relationship will sustain regardless to working together....this is how i've met some of my closest partners. Her shoes won't be easy to fill, but i'm sure someone will put them on and it will be a perfect fit.

My phone is JACKED UP something serious and worse than that picture. My display doesn't work and i'm missing all kinds of calls not to mention answering the phone for people i'd rather not talk to at the moment. It's quite annoying and finally, I got cussed out by a girlfriends friend (that makes her my girlfriend 3 times removed) for not going to spin classes at the gym. I swear imma go soon, real real soon :-)
